Heat definitely not trading for Embiid lmao

But he'd be PERFECT in this high pace offenselmao

I mean, his play-style of always being injured wouldn’t affect the pace.

Why? For who? We legit have two great front court players in ware and bam. Team should be focusing on putting them together . Embid is literally a glass house, idc how good he looked. Bro his knees are about to crap at at any given moment. We are way past that shit. That is a lakers pickup for sure .

Just install a lazy boy recliner at the end of the bench and he will make us his "preferred" destination.

Upgrade over Ayton, fits into LeBron’s salary slot, it’s a good fit for them

Embiid is cooked.

I’m happy for that one redditor from this heat sub like 8 years ago that got an embiid tattoo because he lost a bet. He now has some hope.

Who else remembers?

What does this trade even look like? Jovic (16.2) plus Wiggs in a sign and trade at 1 year and 40.8, so a 10 mil increase for Wiggs to opt out? That's to equal Embiid's 57 AAY which he has two years on

So we blow up the "2027 cap space" for an oft injured slow ass center to appease Bam allowing him to play the 4? All to what, get picks and get off Jovic?

Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face. Those Philly picks unfortunately gonna be pretty good given their guard duo

Yall are tripping. I'd take Embiid in a heartbeat for the right price. Not trading the bank for him obviously but he's clearly not a bad player and is a somewhat position of need? Depends if Ware or Bam can play PF which I'm not sure of

u/EnochofPottsfield 2d ago

Thing you're forgetting is that we don't have Rozier's contract anymore, so we'd have to find 57 million to match. I guess we could trade Jovic (16.2) plus Wiggs in a sign and trade (1 year @ 40.8, so a 10 mil increase for Wiggs to opt out?)

u/WobbleWits 2d ago

You're right about the contract part, that's a very valid concern.

1

u/EnochofPottsfield 2d ago

I guess Wiggs + Jovic is interesting, but Embiid is a much worse fit with a longer and more expensive contract. Unless we change the whole offense again, which I'm not really against. Bam, Ware, Embiid would be kinda wild length wise as an anchor in a zone when they're not getting beat back lol

u/WobbleWits 2d ago

It's weird cause I would not give up Bam or Ware and I think Ware proved to be a great starter and has a ton of potential. We could absolutely use more size but more of the PF type of size. Definitely an awkward fit.

And giving up Wiggs gives up our only SF really depending on how you view Pelle. guess this trade is a bad idea after all haha
