No we don't. We have one and we don't use him. If anything, it would be just great if they could teach Maxi, Powell and KP some post up moves. The rest is great.

Exactly! Giving him a max contract was a huge mistake that will be hurting Sixers for a long time, unless he starts shooting. It is absolutely ridiculous that he doesn't even try. I watched some Sixers games this year but they didn't look so absolutely terrible on the offensive end. No chance for a deep playoff run. Embid taking that midrange jumpers should be forbidden. Even on defense they have holes, as Embid is a liability because he can't guard on perimeter. They have almost 150 million of sallaries committed to 12 players for the next season. I think they will have to trade either Embid or Simmons. Good luck with finding someone to take that bloated contract.
