[SixersGalaxy] Daryl Morey called Joel Embiid after hearing his recent comments, @ramonashelburne said on NBA Today. Ramona added that there “wasn’t any surprise” within the #Sixers organization about those comments, and that the team is “very aware” of the pressure to win a championship.



“Look, Daryl Morey picked up the phone and called Joel Embiid after he heard those quotes… They want to reassure him, ‘hey we’re going to do whatever we can to put a championship team around you’… They’re looking for a player that can help them win a championship next year…“

    I don’t think this perfect player exists. And even if he does, the sixers won’t have the assets to get him, or will just have a very flawed team remaining.

    Morey has got to be lying through his teeth here.

    He can’t actually believe that we’re going to get a star level player for a declining 33 year old on an expiring contract right?

    I’m starting to come to the realization that we’re the new Trailblazers

    Morey is scrambling because he knows he’s done as an executive next year unless someone pulls something out of their ass

    I love JoJo. And I know he can’t do it all by himself.

    That said, I hope **Joel** is “very aware” of the pressure to win a championship. Not personal accolades.

    Maybe Joel should show up for big games in the playoffs if he wants win a championship. We have zero impressive playoff series wins under his belt. He’s been bad in the postseason for his entire career.

    Contending team wants a player who can help them win a championship. More at 11. This is cutting edge stuff

    Maybe if Joel could make it to the playoffs healthy they could rely on him

    The year we had the best chance winning was the year JoJo cried after the buzzer beater
