The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Begins | Embiid Debut | Klay Return

Harden definitely wants out. Sort of implied he wont play if he isn’t traded but is confident in our depth.

Harden won’t be moved unless we get “a player that improves the team now” or “assets that can get us that guy”

Says we will be in a very unique position next year with a good team + lots of cap space and the new cba

Says don’t judge the team in July. There will be changes. Mostly inferring trading harden.

Halliburton was never on the table but they pushed for it and “turned over ever stone”

Says an on ball big wing who is versatile would be the perfect pairing for embiid

Says they have talked to maxey about his extension and wont do it until next season because they can sign a player before the extension to maximize cap under the cba.

Says nick nurse has plans for zone defense with our 25 bigs and that “versatility” is what the team valued most in these signings.

Nick nurse plans to work with embiid to unlock new spots on the floor

Nurse wants to focus on making us less predictable, he is hopeful that will help our issues in game 6 and 7s
So Tobias lol

Homie in the radio w/ Jay Will [Freddie something] said something interesting; Embiid is having a midlife NBA career crisis & doesn’t want his best years spent in a poorly run franchise in so many words which is why he’s sending his subs.

&

Masai got himself in a bind with OG headed into the same situation FVV had this agency szn. Knicks want OG & it looks like OG wants the Knicks as he’s already joined the extended family. He the Nigerian Danny Ainge better get something back if OG’s not gonna re-sign. Not going so well since that all in szn. GM 🧢
And by training camp otherwise he loses even more leverage.

That + the Donte signing makes sense to see Quickley have some space to spread his wings. & again they just lost their starting pg. Better to do it now so they can get those rights.

Evan making noise at the right time as well. He can spread the floor in T.dot and get some much needed pt behind Scottie and GTJ. They already get a 1st [and ready to start] in IQ so a couple more & 1 Knicks unprotected in ‘24 [3 future total] is more than generous.
