Joel-Embiiid vow, not part of another 76 meeting, after flattering details have been leaked through

After the Philadelphia 76ers had started a 2: 11 start to the 2024-25 season, the team held a meeting with closed perpetrators to clear the air and give the tone for what they hoped for.

Details of what was said in this meeting were leaked the next day, like us Scholarly tyrese Maxey challenged Joel Embbiid To be too late and not to define the standard as a star of the team. Embbiid was upset that became public knowledge and said Anyone who leaked the information was a “real piece of shit” And swore to find out who did it.

In a profile of Dotun Akintoye from ESPN on Wednesday, we learned that Embiid knows who the leak is, and although he is not ready to reveal this information, he made it clear that the trust was broken and that he did not take part in future team meetings.

“I know who leaked it, but … the past is the past. The only thing I will say is that it is difficult to be people with people who do things like that,” said Embiid. “This goes back to the matter of trust. As soon as you have crossed it – you cannot expect me to be part of a team meeting again. It will simply not happen.”

Akintoye pressed Embiid on whether the player was still on the squad and while Embiid Cagey was, he said, “There is a chance that they are still nearby.”

The profile shows numerous examples of how the former MVP quickly builds up a wall with people when they break their trust – and how slowly it is to let people in. Anyone who has leaked this team meeting nugget is now on the other side of this wall, and if it is a prominent member of the team, the administration of this relationship will be an additional task on the plate of coach Nick Nurse.

Overall, Embbiid's relationship with the Sixers organization is fascinating. There is both an understandable skepticism of Embbiid's part of how you treated his injuries there throughout his time, and yet a deep desire to give the promise of his talents for an organization that hopes for so much. If you add a layer of distrust on the level of the changing room, it is not exactly an ideal situation if all parties involved try to go forward and to get a catastrophic campaign 2024-25 behind.

Philadelphia hopes that Empbiid, Maxey and Paul George will be able to stay healthy next year and to fulfill the promise of their star power and to bring the Sixers to an East Conference in Flux. At this point you urgently need things to have a strong start. If not, you have to find out how to exclude things without participating from Embbiid in future meetings with closed doors.
