    Convince them you're injury prone and they might draft you #1 next year.

    Embiid, Simmons & Jakey. The perfect triankle.

    He was already improving quite a bit near the end of last year, now with a coach who will actually encourage and help develop him the future is so bright. He's gonna have a huge year, I watched the summer league as well and was very impressed at his leadership skills. It seems he's trying to take that role for the team which is impressive considering how young he is.

    Can't wait to see these young guys ball out and develop all season.

    I'd keep Okafor honestly, Noel is the one to trade.

    Okafor and Noel are so opposite. If you trade Noel, you're getting rid of one of your best defensive players, if you trade Okafor, you're losing his offense. I myself really don't know which one I'd like to see go. I like both but one of them is going to have to be traded eventually. It will most likely be Noel.

    Add Holmes to that logjam of Centers, he's been fantastic. I know we're holding off the trade to see how Embiid goes, but we've got too much depth in the C/PF positions, the rest is in absolute shambles. Need to do something.

    The only positive out of this preseason is that Embiid is going better than expected. Other than that, we've identified that Ben Simmons can hop on one foot, he will be better than our entire front court put together.

    You can play them together, Embiid would be the guy with the potential to stretch the floor. At least gotta keep 1 of Okafor/Noel around to see if Embiid can stay healthy and produce.

    This might be good for him imo. Being mentored by Wade and Rondo may do his game wonders.
