I wonder if he's going to take his player option.
His player option is $57 million in 26-27, all while holding a no trade clause, which means he basically has the franchise by the barrel. OK, to me, this is still because of the two extra years, still the worst deal in the NBA. And I get it. There's other guys here that I'm like, wow, this is tough. But Bradley Beal to me is the worst.
House would know this way better than me.
There you go.
And I got to say, going through this list, there's just not as many horrific, scary contracts.
Most of these contracts are like, eh. Not that terrible. Some of them you could be like, oh, it's kind of risky. But most of these deals, like even if a guy is slightly overpaid, it's not a franchise killer the way this Bradley Beal thing is. And I'm sure I'm pretty sure I know your next pick is going to be. But, yeah, it's tough.
It's tough. I got to say, I've been one of the biggest like, look, elements of wanting to move on from Luca were justifiable people in the media. Right. Like there are elements to it where I'm like, I understand why a team would say, you know what, man, this guy is going to be problematic after we give him three hundred fifty million dollars. The bottom line is trading for A.D.,
Just it's just you just you just had to do something more or better.
Yeah. And and then A.D. goes. It's just like the way he framed it in the media was about availability. Yeah. A.D. goes down immediately. The first game he plays and Kyrie's gone. He's gone.
Yeah.
I think they did it because it's like before he went down last year, he was basically averaging 35 points. He was having the best scoring season since Michael Jordan, literally, in like 1988, right? And so the idea being like, look, when this guy was on the floor for us, he was amazing. And, you know, even in his limited capacity against the Knicks, he was pretty good.
So the idea is like, oh, he's going to get back to that form before he went down midway through the season. I think the problem for me and what makes this a justifiable pick is that, you know, guys go down and it's like, all right, he's got an ACL. He's got a PCL. He's got a broken fibula. He's got whatever, ankle, whatever. This is the problem. This is the procedure we're going to do.
This is how long it's going to take for him to come back. It's going to be fine. They can't even tell us. what is wrong with his knee and what they're going to do. People are throwing out micro fracture surgery. Do they even still do that? Dude, that's how dumbfounded they are by what they can do to address the problem in his knee. And it feels like there's nothing left to fix.
Uh, it's a devastating, devastating contract. Um, let's just say, presumably he plays three more years on this knee in 28, 29, he's going to be owed basically $70 million. Um, That's tough.
In his age, 30, what will that be?
He's making it.
He's not going to retire before this contract is up. He can't. His accountant will not allow it.
So 20 games a season out of him for the Sixers. Hey, it is whatever I got to do to make it to the finish line. And listen, look, I think Joel Embiid is a bit of a tragic figure.
And he seems to want it really badly. It's just his body just straight up has not cooperated. And that sucks. But at the end of the day, he's going to have like $600 million in career earnings. And I don't feel that bad for the guy, you know?
This is the last obvious, this is just horrible, contract, in my opinion, left in the league. There's other ones that are like, all right, this is pretty bad, but this is like... Horrific. And it's Joel Embiid's teammate, Paul George.
