Joel Embiid on the Celtics and recruiting free agents to the Sixers: “I can’t stand them. I hate Boston. Great city. Great fans. They’ve got some great players. Hopefully, this offseason, we find a way to get better and add some pieces (looks at Paul George next to him).” 😂 pic.twitter.com/vZkZeuFXIK – 8:48 PM

Joel Embiid with the not-so-subtle look towards Paul George when saying the Sixers will improve this offseason:
“This offseason we’ll find a way to get better 👀 … add some pieces.”

Joel Embiid (next to Paul George, to Stephen A):
“I’m the MVP… I just got to get a little bit of luck. Stay healthy. And I know everything else is going to take care of itself.”
(… everyone knows each other, I don’t have to tell you that JoJo and PG are repped by the same🙃) – 8:25 PM

I’m sure Paul George and Joel Embiid on set together is going to go over cool
Paul George: “This is my first Finals appearance, and I hate that it had to come in this fashion. Watching from the sideline, it don’t feel good”
Joel Embiid: “I want to be here, I want to win so bad” – 8:21 PM

Happy Friday, gang!
We’re discussing what a perfect third star would look like next to Embiid and Maxey, and how much of that could be found in the players they’re chasing this summer.

Taking a step back from the rumor mill to discuss hypotheticals, specifically which skill sets and traits would fit in best as a 3rd star next to Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey?
With @_devongivens and @kyleneubeck at 2:30.

More on this storyline
Draymond Green: “Really funny story is Joel Embiid tweeting, ‘Did the Bucks give them the championship?’ Them being Boston. And the answer to Joel’s question is yes, they actually did, because they traded Jrue away. And like, I just think even in that trade, like you got to find and do all you can to like keep Jrue because Jrue can guard bigger. So like, there’s Jrue can play off the ball or on the ball. Like, there’s no fit mismatch with like Jrue and Dame. And I think like, I don’t think Portland was hell-bent on getting Jrue Holiday.” -via YouTube / June 14, 2024
Joel Embiid: Did the bucks give them the championship? -via x.com / June 12, 2024
The 7-foot-2, 280-pounder is a seven-time All-Star who won the MVP award in 2023. At 30, he’s in the prime of his career and would be locked up through the 2028-29 season. However, critics could argue his extensive injury history might make a new extension cost prohibitive. Embiid would make $59.7 million (2026-27), $64.5 million (2027-28), and $69.3 million (2028-29) during the three years of a new extension. If he waits until next summer, he would be eligible for a fourth year. -via The Philadelphia Inquirer / June 5, 2024
