    Default The League NEEDS a Healthy Nerlens Noel and Joel Embiid

    We have a small crop of young bigs coming through the league now.

    Drummond
    Davis
    Valanciunas

    To a lesser extent

    Jones
    Dieng
    Vucevic
    The Plumlees


    Add Embiid and Noel to those names and you have some solid bigs coming through the league.

    We need these two for the future of the NBA. We missed out on Oden, hopefully Embiid is the one.

    Can't wait to see how good the 76ers will be with a healthy Embiid and Noel. A monster defensive frontcourt every team will one day fear. If both those guys can live up to their expectations then this team will be an amazing one in a couple of years. Not to mention, they got a young guy named Michael Carter-Williams who had a really promising rookie year. He'll be a great player one day.

    There's a bunch of high level bigs coming to the NBA soon too. PF/C position could be stacked in a few years

    Jahlil Okafor, Karl Towns Jr, Cliff Alexander, Thon Maker etc

    That team has the highest ceiling when you consider both their cap flexibility and players they have.

    You're right, Noel and Embiid front court is mouth watering. Who would want to drive to the basket with those 2 flying around?

    Yeah, I left Love and Boogie off the list who are only 24, but you can include them if you like.

    Exactly. Sixers have a bright future if their main guys can stay healthy.

    I like this bonding thing years in advance. Maybe Saric will start to think about somehow coming over early. After all, he will be getting plenty of PT.

    a lot of people didn't like the saric they wanted mcbuckets but i like it. i like that we're finally getting foreign players. the dude is tough as nails nocioni elbowed him in the mouth and knocked out 6 teeth and he came back out and finished the game.
