Joel Embiid will become the ultimate scapegoat and receive all the blame if the new-look Sixers fail

I think what's gonna end up happening and the only person who this move is, I don't wanna say bad for, but the pressure has gone to a billion is Joel Embiid. 'Cause if they don't perform, it will be his, he will get all the blame and no one else. ... He will get the inordinate amount of blame for anything that goes bad for the Sixers. And he won't get a lot of the praise. It'll go to LeBron. That's part of playing with LeBron.

Requires observing the media fallout if the Sixers fail in the playoffs.

It's championship or bust for the 76ers after signing LeBron James

It's championship or bust for the Sixers. It's championship or bust for the Sixers. If they don't win the NBA championship next year, this could be the most disappointing season in the history of basketball.

Outcome of the 2026-27 NBA season is pending.

Brad Stevens traded Jaylen Brown to the Sixers as a '4D chess' move to implode the team

I think that this could be the greatest thing that Brad Stevens has ever done. I think he's playing 4D chess. He knew what he was doing with the Jaylen Brown trade. And now with LeBron, like all the pressure's now on LeBron. Jaylen Brown didn't want to be a number two option with Boston. And now the Sixers, it's like he might be number four.

Requires seeing if the Sixers implode or win a championship.

LeBron James is the GOAT over Michael Jordan because of his longevity

LeBron? More points. Longevity is a big thing in sports. The fact that he's 42 years old, he is still doing it. Michael Jordan couldn't do it at 42. He never had a serious injury... I'm a LeBron sexual. That's my goat, that's my guy.

The GOAT debate is inherently subjective.

It hurts LeBron James's GOAT case against Michael Jordan that he has played for four different franchises

I do think it's a little weird that he's on his fourth team when you have the GOAT debate. I do. Four teams is weird. Just because I just do personal, this is my personal belief... It's not an argument that has any type of substance behind it other than I just like to say four teams. That's crazy.
