Re: Nick Nurse to Philly
Good signing I guess. Now it all comes down to what Jimmy Harden does...

Re: Nick Nurse to Philly
This looks like a warning to Harden, take a smaller deal or walk. No way he wants to play under Nurse.
I'm sure that they ran this decision by Joel but it is interesting due to the beef they have had in the past. Nurse and Embiid have always been vocal in the media going at one another.
It will be interesting to see Nurse fix the Philadelphia defesive issues. Their point of attack defense is terrible and the help way too much. Nurse seems is the right coach to remedy these issues.
I was kinda hoping for Monty to come back, would have been a great story if he returned to bring success to the organisation but a fresh look is probably more important than a great story.
Interesting times tho. I don't expect Harden to be here for it.

What options do they have if Harden goes to Houston?

No possible upgrades. From my understanding they won't have much room to move. They will have a mid level exception, which isn't game changing. They can trade a 2029 pick, that's all they have.
The just gotta through the keys to Maxey and just see how the year goes without any expectations. Obviously they should be a playoff team in some capacity.
Tobias is expiring so they might get a trade out of him, if not they will have cap next summer and they can try reload in a year.

If they ditch Harden it’s still a dangerous team.
I would assume Nurse had some kind of assurance theyll do so, otherwise why tf would he want the job.

Is it in you?
Re: Nick Nurse to Philly
I wonder if Cassell stays?
This is definitely a good coaching upgrade.

But embiid is cursed. So that will have to be factored in also.

I have a strong feeling Nurse brings in Lowry to help develop Maxey...

Nurse and Siakam had their share or run ins, right?
The relationship ran it's course?
I know they f'cked up the play in but the fired him pretty quick foe someone that won a chip not long ago.

I think he just got bored coaching kids
we're in a rebuild and he went from making playoff runs to not making playoffs
tbh probably not that exciting of a job coaching next years raptors. I think we'll give a rookie coach a shot so they grow with the team.

Sixers will not win with Embiid as their centerpiece
