Joel Embiid Continues To Be A Headache For the 76ers #philadelphia #sixers

I’m finished with Joe Ol with the 76ers. Sean, the problem is who the hell’s taking him? The problem is he’s just got a brand new contract. That’s the unfortunate part. And shame on Daryl my for doing that. And I get it. It all comes down to you want him to finish his career as a Sixer, you know, you want him to have that statue outside of the practice facility, you know, and that’s all beautiful and it would be a great deal if they could make that happen. But this is frustrating. The fact that this is still happening, it seems like from afar. I’m not down there. I don’t have inside sources. Uh, but you know, the big thing for me from what took place last year with the leak of, hey, Tyrese Maxi called him out wasn’t that Joel Embiid stepped up and said, you know what, and I’m sure he did say cuz I know people get really aggravated and and start firing off, you know, because they got to back their man. And I love Jojo. I do, but I’ve had enough. The what irked me the most about that deal last year, John, was he was mad at the leak more than anything. He was searching for the source of the leak. He did his he was doing his own investigation into who leaked it. He never said it’s not true. He downplayed it. Correct. Correct. And Sixers got rid of a ton of personnel at the end of the season last year because of the leaks. Because of specifically, in my opinion, that one leak now. And that that tells you all you need to know. Like I’m mad about what this what was said and how it leaked versus no, this is my own actions. You know, I should be mad at myself because I’ve been leading this team down this path where I’m showing up and doing whatever I want. He has been handed the keys. This has been an issue with this franchise from day one with Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid. And Ben Simmons out there begging on Instagram. You Sixer fans should be ashamed of yourself. If you are asking yourself that, oh, should they bring back Ben Simmons? Get out of here.
