Joel Embiid, center of Philadelphia and one of the best basketball players in the NBA league, spoke for the first time after the trade of Ben Simmons in the ranks of Brooklyn.
James Harden arrived in the opposite direction.
“Obviously, we didn’t make it far in the playoffs. If you go back and look at how we looked before that, we were dominant. I always thought we were cooperating well, that everything was great, that we could do it together, but Ben didn’t think so and now we’re moving on. He had his team, he was the star of his team, but that was not enough for him “, said Embiid.
Embiid also looked at other players who were involved in that trade.
The Nets and the Seventy-six will meet on March 10, and Embid also referred to other players who were traded.
“It’s bad that I lost a few teammates. Seth Curry did a great job in the year and a half he was here. Drummond has been the best replacement since I’ve been here. It’s bad that we lost them, but we got one of the best players in the league, the MVP. “When you add such a player to your team, the chances for the title increase,” he said.
