Andre Drummond might be better than Joel Embiid

Andre Drummond... might be better than [Joel] Embiid. Max, I'm not gonna lie... He still has his appendix. Best ability is availability.

While Drummond is more durable, Embiid is a perennial MVP candidate and objectively the better player; the claim is hyperbolic.

Beating the Celtics would be the equivalent of winning an NBA Finals for the Sixers

I've also already said if we beat the Celtics, that's, that's an NBA finals. I don't care what happens the rest of it.

The Orlando Magic are a total bummer to watch

The [Orlando] Magic are the biggest bummer in the world to watch. Yeah. That team stinks. They are, they just play just basketball. That's not fun to watch. Paolo [Banchero] stinks. Paolo is so bad. He was like seven for 22. It's like my turn your turn offense.

The Toronto Maple Leafs hiring John Chayka as GM is laughable given his track record

to get the the the one of the biggest, if not the biggest jobs in hockey as far as the general manager with the track record he has is laughable. Listen, maybe he ends up going on to have success. But to get... the biggest jobs in hockey... with the track record he has is laughable.

The hire was highly controversial in the hockey community, but its ultimate success will be judged by the Leafs' playoff performance.
