Joel Embiid told Maverick Carter, “I just want to win a championship, whatever it takes. I don’t know where that’s going to be. Whether it’s Philly or anywhere else.” Those two sentences had Sixers fans and the NBA community as a whole reacting. Devon Givens and Keith Pompey break down Embiid’s comments. They also talk about the Sixers offseason moves or lack of them.

I want him to win one. Be he needs to step up in the playoffs. And stop choking
He aka the so-called "MVP" better be more concerned about sending his 2nd Round opponent a message, ESPECIALLY when you have 2 chances to close out a series this past year and a couple game 7s Raptors & Hawks in 2019 & 2021!!! 0-4 in closeout games??? Cmon a true MVP will lead by example on the court during the playoffs and not by some tweet online in the offseason!!! Sorry I have been a huge Embiif supporter since day 1 but am tired of talk… Actions always speak louder than words!!!
As great as he’s been Embiid has yet to make the other players better so some blame must be on him too
I actually disagree with Keith. The team this past season was better than the 2019 team. Pretty much in every way and our playoff performance was actually better as well. We had the Celtics beat and lost game 6 in the last few minutes. We also won 2 road games in Boston and eventually lost in game 7. 2021 was our best opportunity, because the path was the easiest. I feel like we can build on this past season a lot. But it would be nice to have some continuity
JOEL MB is saying same thing Kobe or Jordan or any other great player would say that want a Championship .JOEL MB is the man time running out, Philadelphia 76er's I have to bring in key players to help JOEL MB and Philadelphia 76er's to win a Championship. Or else trade me to a team that want a Championship.
I’m so fed up with this team. If they were smart, they would trade him now and cash in on his value. Instead, they will wait until he’s completely broken down and get pennies on the dollar
there are conflicting reports about Jimmy Butler and sixers in 2019…Information from the sixers saying they did offer Jimmy the max and her turned it down and went to Miami.
Sixers ruin the Ben Simmons trade…they should gotten Haliborton
Embiid shouldn’t be calling anyone out as he disappears in the playoffs.
No one wants to play with Embiid is what it sounds like to me
The real issue is Daryl morey and ownership that is keeping him there. I agree about Joel talking too much and throwing his teammates under the bus and his playoff performances never matching up and him always being injured but he’s also right about the team roster construction. Imo they finally got a good coach now they need a good GM and morey flat out isn’t it. He has no clue how to construct a roster it’s all the rockets reunion tour. I think Joel is not happy with the front office and doesn’t think he can win as it’s constructed and frankly neither does anyone else. It’s terrible roster. They really should’ve tried to sign someone like a grant Williams, dumped all their Houston guys, actually gotten another solid free agent signing and a fifth starter that shouldn’t be pj tucker
Embiid is a curve…wipe
The MVP fades during big spots in the playoffs so if he wants to leave ✌🏾
My take with the off-season so far, is that we're still in the off-season, so why are you trippin so much? I'm just gonna be patient before I start trippin. Right now it's inconclusive.
Who did we actually lose besides Niang? Shake wasn't used as was trash defensively, McDaniels was not effective offensively or defensively against the Celtics. I feel like Niang is fairly easy to replace. I'm not impressed with the off-season so far, but not really disappointed yet.
Pe-tru-shev
It won't matter anyway. You hired the worst coach in the league who will destroy your team as he almost did with the Raptors.
New York Knicks you don’t have the players to trade for Joel Embiid. New York only has one good player on their roster that is Jalen Brunson the hell with those draft picks.
When he said 'James and I can't do it alone'. That should have told you. He's got to go. You are never going to get more for him than you can get now. Harden leaving when he left was the best timing it could have ever been for the Rockets.
Pompey get off Embiid nutz
HE'S DEFINITELY A BIG PART OF THE PROBLEM… HE'S HURT EVERY PLAYOFF RUN AND HE STILL HASN'T STEPPED UP BIG IN THE PLAYOFFS… DON'T LET HIM OFF THE HOOK WITH THIS BULLSHIT
This organization is trash I wish they just sell the team to some real philly people
Joel Embiid is looking around at everybody except himself talking about he need more help! Well help himself and play like an MVP during the playoffs
Embid is never healthy in the playoffs that's where it counts its time to Get assests its Done no one is coming to save the day the window was when we had Jimmy Butler.
I have a question for you guys did sixers not resign our free agents because of the harden hold up and they thought they would still be there or because other teams offered more money then the sixers were willing to give or they just didn’t want any of them back besides Paul?
Let’s recap the Houston rockets reunion tour: Patrick Beverly, pj tucker, Montrez, James harden, Daniel house did I miss anyone? Half the team are former rockets!!!
Tired of him too let him go
Im just trying to imagine the haul the 76ers can get in a embiid and harden trade package….
