Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby

And I think out of anyone, they valued him the most.

And you just had Embiid coming off these two seasons where he played the most games he'd ever played, and it was like 66 and 63.

His stock was never going to be higher.

The history of centers and guys that size is usually going to start doing this.

And I just think he could have gotten a fucking motherlode from Philly.

Now, would the fans have been happy about it?

I don't know.

Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby

But I think in retrospect...

The Bill Simmons Podcast
Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby

Hard to say, but in retrospect, the move is like, I am selling high, not on Jared McCain, but on Joel Embiid right now.

The Brewers are like this too.

The Bill Simmons Podcast

The Red Sox have traded for him two years in a row with the Brewers.

They basically have Sam Presti in the baseball and got fleeced each time.

So yeah, so for Darryl, this is a 20-year run for him, right?

The Bill Simmons Podcast

He got hired by the Rockets in 06.

The Bill Simmons Podcast
Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby

took over the team in 07, had the whole Rockets run, came really close, had some bad luck, especially Chris Paul getting hurt is a great injury what if.

We have injury what ifs every year.

That's a really good one because they had game seven at home.

They were toe-to-toe with the Warriors.

The Bill Simmons Podcast
Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby

The Warriors were a little run down at that point from 15, 16, 17, 18.

They were vulnerable.
