240 million yuan in maximum salary in 4 years, Embiid has gone from the boss of the team to an outsider! The 5-for-1 plan is released, and the MVP may need to leave

This offseason, many teams in the Western Conference have launched an arms race, and the Thunder will inevitably usher in the encirclement of the Clippers + Rockets + Nuggets in the new season. In addition, the Timberwolves, who have reached the Western Conference Finals for two consecutive seasons, should not be underestimated. The overall intra-summary of the Western Conference is very serious. In the East, traditional giants Celtics have been trying their best to cut costs since Tatum's Achilles tendon injury. The team's lineup will no longer be watched next season. Jaylen Brown + White + Prichard brings some marginal players, the upper limit is the playoff level. The same is true for the Pacers team last season's finals. Halliburton was seriously injured and Turner left, and the Pacers were also a flash in the pan. The main competition in the Eastern Conference in the new season is concentrated on the three teams, the Cavaliers + Knicks + Magic.

But there is another team that is more interesting, which is the 76ers. The 76ers team's book salary next season is US$200 million, ranking sixth in the league, but they are outside the 12th in the East. The team's two bosses, Embiid, have an annual salary of 55.22 million next season and George has 51.67 million, which accounts for half of them, but they may not be able to count on them. More than 10 days ago, Embiid complained in an exclusive interview with ESPN and summarized three points: The 76ers did not want him to operate, and he was forced to ask for help from the media; the team's management was very bad, and many bizarre things happened here, hoping that one day they could be filmed into a TV series; finally Embiid emphasized: After retirement, you will not have any news about me, and I can't wait until that day comes.

Embied's contract has four years left to fully guarantee, namely 55.22 million + 57.91 million + 62.55 million + 67.18 million US dollars, totaling 242 million. However, there is one detail worth pondering. The 76ers hope that Embiid will return to the team before the start of the new season. The bottom line is that the All-Stars must return before the weekend. The team still does not intend to give up competition in the new season. But Embiid's response was that he needed to recover completely before he could return! In addition, the team's reporter Pompei revealed that the team gradually lost patience with Embiid, and Embiid probably knew that his time at the 76ers might be over, so he chose to turn against the team in the offseason. In addition, it is generally believed that after several consecutive years of severe knee injuries, Embiid may be unable to return to his peak.

76ers naturally have a backup plan. The team's future team building core is Maxi and this year's Tanhua Show Edgecom. George has become a burden on the contract, Embiid, as the team's boss, has gradually become an outsider! Embiid is very strong, but since Harden left, his playing style cannot adapt to his physical condition, and he does not have the ability to lead the team, and he is even more troubled by injuries! In this regard, US media columnist Bitar believes that the 76ers may be ready to send Embiid away and make every effort to start the reconstruction mode. The deal plan is as follows: 76ers give Embiid, and the Wizards give Middleton + Saar + 27 and 30 first-round picks + Keisbert. Previously, salary experts analyzed that although Embiid is an MVP, his trading market will not exceed two first-round picks. The greatest significance of this deal to the Wizards is that the team needs to find a leader, a top star in the league, and lead the team's young people (Whitmore, Coolibaly, Carrington) and others to grow. It is obvious that the team sent Poole away this summer for McLeham to not only clear up the salary space, but more importantly, McLeham can drive young people. In the team's future territory, Middleton will execute player options, but the situation is as embarrassing as James, and the team has no place to play. As the second place last year, Saar averaged 13 points and 6.5 rebounds per game in the rookie season, which is not particularly good. If Embiid can make a comeback next season, the Wizards will at least enter the playoffs discussion. The healthy Embiid can let the Wizards bid farewell to the bottom of the Eastern Conference.

For the 76ers, the team has long planned to build a team around Maxi. Saar may be able to grow in a different environment. After all, the Wizards have no winning culture; Middleton's veteran experience and projection can share the pressure of the team, and the two first-round picks obtained can give the 76ers more rebuilding chips in the future. After Middleton's contract expires next summer, the 76ers can still clear out some of the space. In Bitar's words, this trading plan helped the 76ers solve three problems: Embiid's injury trouble + unstable locker room + huge contract risk; for the Wizards, they are the closest team in the entire league to obtain Embiid, because they have reached the bottom and cannot be broken any more, and any operation may rebound.

But there is no doubt that as the MVP of the NBA League in the 22-23 season, Embiid's 76ers' career is really coming to an end. After Harden left, Embiid let himself go, increased his possession share, did not get stuck in the inside line, and shot from the outside. He was not a qualified center at all, and this also increased his injury risks. Once upon a time he looked down on Jokic, but Jokic was already the number one player in the league, but where is Embiid? To borrow ESPN's words, perhaps after Embiid's maximum salary contract expires, it's time for him to leave the NBA. The Sixers must try their best to send him out before Embiid's market declines as soon as possible.
