Jeff Teague says Paul George is COOKED, Joel Embiid & 76ers will be PLAY-IN team | Club 520

Well, I know who’s about to get paid. Come on, load up the Drake. Our favorite two guard, baby. Our favorite two guards. Let’s go, baby. Our favorite player in 520, man. Come on. He’s worth 25 million. What do you ask for? Two year, 2 million on the way. Hey, no, you know, they making moves for him. Look, allegedly the sixers are reportedly looking to move on from Kelly Uber Jr. and Andre Drummond in hopes, you know what I’m saying, free up that cap to bring back the real two guard Quinn Grimes. Listen, my boy stayed out the way. He ain’t been talking. He said, “This is what I need. Go make it happen, Philadelphia. It’s time. Bring back the real baby.” How y’all feel about it. I, you know, I love it. I’m here all for it. To me, uh, y’all gonna have a better pride analysis on it than me, but I just feel like you losing a lot for that. You already got scoring and Maxi McCain, you already got guards that can give you buckets. You kind of losing quality size on your team to secure uh somebody that you can get on from any other team like Andre Drum Price. Andre Drummer you might need because you got Embiid always hurt. Well Embiid in the gym so it looking like he might be on his way back soon if PG healthy. You might need Andre Drummond to fill that void. So to get rid of Andre Drummond who you going to replace down there. Yeah Kelly Ubelly Kelly Uber a quality defender. I don’t know. You might be giving up a lot for him. QG better than Kelly UB. He is. But both of them together that’s just that might be a lot. But you got I think they still got who is it? Twins on that team still. Mhm. They got some other players that was injured that’s going to play this year. Paul George going to play way more games than he did last year. Facts. Yeah, but what are you going to do about your VJ Edgecom? He going to play. That’s why they don’t need Kelly Ubé. He’s only like 6’4. I mean kind of like you kind of I’m just saying you losing size, bro. Like they all play the same position. Like at that point when you 6’5, 66, 67. Yeah. It’s all the same. Okay. like you athletic enough and they going to make room for that kid to play and Kelly Ubé is a guy that you can probably get some type of value back for like a cool second round pick or something him and Andre Drummond to pair it together you can get a cool second round pick or whatever it is or a solid big man a role player yeah that was a very interesting point I think a lot of people missing that obviously the reporting style was funny for us with QG but yeah BJC has to get minutes bro he was a top pick and Kelly UB had up and down season. I know with the injuries and stuff. We’ll talk about that later. But he has to get on the court or something. Got to play. Has to. That’s where it is going to come from. That’s what I’m saying. You what you what you really feel? I want Quinton Grimes to get a billion out the league. We all want you to get some money. I’m just saying like so far as a fit. Am I going to overpay him? And I still got Jared McCain, Tyrese Maxi, and VJ Escom. And I’m really kind of taking all three of them over him. Yeah. But Tyrese is going to play at the one. Jerry McCain is going to be his backup. BJ Eshkcom, Paul George, and Quinn Grimes is going to be your wings. They going to rotate. You got somebody got to come out. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you going to get a sub here and there. Yeah. Justin Edwards and continue with this team. You know, hopefully it’s not the same pace this year, but injury has not been content or this last couple years. So, you much rather be prepared to have enough killers and even if you got to move on to get another big situation, you got quality players, you know what I’m saying? make some transactions with. Shout out to my boy but a capable scorer though. Like no disrespect to Kelly Ubra. He done I think he averaged 20 points in this league before but just now at where he is now I don’t think he’s a better player than Quint Grimes. You know does Quint Grimes D up? Yeah, he played defense. He he he tries. He was known as a defender before he was known Yeah. to score. Actually, when I think of him from that Dallas Mavericks team Yeah. He can lock up and he can score. He can play with quality players, too. So, thousand%. Shout out to QG, man. Listen, it was a small sample size, only 28 games, but you know what he did? 22, five and four, baby. Come on. I like Justin Elwards, too. Yeah. Yeah. He He definitely got some burn, too. He defin I just I got to see it. They kind of looking like the Hornets, bro. But I ain’t going to lie, he the prep school Hornets. The The amount of money we thinking he going to get is probably going to be a little bit lower than 20, obviously. Probably like 8 N million a year. Oh, that’s fair. I could imagine I couldn’t imagine they about to pay him 16 17 million a year. Yeah. And they just drafted VJ. Yeah. That don’t make no sense actually. And you still got Jared McCain like when you got the best two guard you still got uh Paul George making a max deal. So I couldn’t imagine he’s about to get some crazy number. But 89 million I can see. And what’s interesting is they put out a list of highest contracts for this year um in the NBA. And the Sixers have two players in top 10 with Paul George and Joel Embiid. So yeah. Yeah, that’s pretty some money around there for sure. Uh speaking of that team, Kelly Ubé, he wasn’t feeling the Philly fans, man. They said they put a lot of spun on his name. And I quote, I will read, “I love Philly, but the love doesn’t seem to be reciprocated. What happened to this place?” And for those saying I’m garbage cuz my three-part percent went down. I still put up numbers and I’ll cook you. Basically said, “Man, I went through some stuff last year. I was hurt. I was playing through an injury. We had a whole lot of stuff going on. Y’all acting like I’m trash, man. I was not the reason why we weren’t good last year. Take that off. You got to understand that’s a hard place to play for though. Philadelphia, the fans going to criticize you no matter what Santa Claus being hurt cuz all Philly fans say this is their rebuttal. Iverson played and he had every bone broken in his body. So y’all can’t give us no excuses on That’s all Gilly say, bro. Iverson was a [ __ ] th everything. He was a man. There was one Allan Iverson for a reason, bro. Nah, for sure. So, I mean, that’s just you. You can’t be sensitive. You can’t even feed into that as a professional athlete though. But I want to ask both of y’all this. Them fans be talking crazy. I know sometimes even if you don’t want to publicly, even if you don’t, I know sometimes I wish I get your [ __ ] all back at them because they be talking crazy, man. Especially in today’s social media age, people just don’t leave it on the court. They bothering you everywhere. Sometimes you need to turn Twitter and stuff off, bro. Cuz I mean, you’re a human being. You see that [ __ ] That [ __ ] do make you mad after a while, bro. Yeah. Everybody keep saying you sad and all this knowing they can’t do nothing with you. Yeah. So you just turn the Twitter off sometimes. You start telling fans, “I’ll bust your ass.” You You mad, bro. Really upset, bro. That [ __ ] ain’t never bothered me. When I was in Minnesota, it only bothered me because they would talk about Ricky Rubio. Yeah. And I used just be like, “What?” But it’s the same people that I take a picture with you as soon as they see you. You had the experience. You know, the Uber. Yeah, the Uber. But I just couldn’t. But it was Postmates. I ain’t going to give him Uber that much, girl. He was Postmates. Respect. To be on Uber. Uber. Uber driver never did me like that. He was post. But uh like they it don’t bother me. It only bothered me cuz they was hype about Ricky Rubio and I was just I couldn’t understand it. Like if he if it was like Steph Curry like you can’t [ __ ] with Steph Curry. I’m like okay. Right. Like Derek Rose. I’m okay cool. Whatever. I was like Ricky. All right. It’s one [ __ ] I know I’m better than you feel disrespected. I like hold on. I know I’m better than that [ __ ] Hold on. I don’t know why I always [ __ ] on Rubio, but that’s just how I felt at that time. And he a good dude, man. I [ __ ] with you. But at that time, I just felt like I know I’m better than him. Dude, crazy man. Nah, I feel man. Them fans be talking crazy. I I can’t be mad at y’all for reacting sometimes, man. People take it too far for sure. We shall see. That is one very interesting team because if they are healthy they could possibly get through the East. But if they are not then we will see a repeat of what we’ve seen the last couple years. Philly healthy they they Jo is healthy. They have a chance to get George healthy. Join B healthy. That’s a hell of a if Maxi bro that’s a top team in the East. Yeah, please. I swear to God they’re not they can’t contend in the East this year. Play man. Play at full strength. They are a top 14. Oh, this is turning into a joke. If he’s healthy, bro, he’s he’s still one of PG, bro. He can still be a third option on the team. Third option. Coldest players I ever seen play basketball. If Paul George my third option, I’m cool with that, bro. He was third option last year, bro. But he was hurt, bro. I’m talking about healthy. It was It’s a great chance he going to be hurt this year. Damn. It’s just for real. How often is this [ __ ] not hurt? I mean, it’s a great chance going to be hurt then. My phone, but we saying at full strength. Yeah, they going to be a hell of an if. We know they going to be at full strength the first game of the season. They going to look in game two. They going to be out. Joel play one, sit out 25. Come on, bro. They are done. That one be 60 though. That one be 60 30 and 10. First game of the season. He ain’t going to play the first game of the season. But that first game he return, he going to have 20. That first game he going to sit out two. Then that next one he going to go for 40. Then he going to be done. Damn. I wish them success, but DJ saying they gonna run through the eases just hate these. Possibly at full strength. N you just said at full strength they’ll be one of the top teams because they would because they should be. They should all money they making. Come on. Quinn Grimes load up. You going to be averaging 18 again next year. Get ready, bro. Listen, nothing make me average. QG being a real gonna be a playin team where you averaging 18. Maxi averaging 28. Yeah. Uh McCain averaging 14. Yeah, shout out to the Sixers though, man. I just I just be having to pause this show sometimes with that. Like, y’all be going forward with the [ __ ] Whoever gave him this gapp was out of pocket, man. For sure. Let’s get a super chat this morning, man. That was a classic.

Jeff Teague, DJ Wells, and B Hen discuss the upcoming season for Joel Embiid, Paul George, and the Philadelphia 76ers. Jeff says that the 76ers will be at best a play-in team for the NBA playoffs, as he thinks Embiid and PG will be injured.
