Last year Tatum got the short end of the stick.

This year it was embiid

Maybe next year it is KD
Not according to Tatum. Even Tatum admitted that him being 1st team All NBA over Embiid was questionable.

Sixers unlikely to do anything at the deadline.

Dan Patrick has an interesting theory on Bens shooting. Says he thinks he's shooting with the wrong hand. He's been saying that since Ben was at LSU.
Maybe he’s using the wrong side of his brain

It actually makes some sense. His form is horrible. The fact that he has that much talent and his form is that bad, is coaching malpractice. He wouldn't be the first player in this or another sport with that kind of issue. It's similar to a baseball player who bats right, but throws left.

His father is the source of this. When he was young he switched him up and force fed him to be a lefty. He created an ambidextrous player from 6 feet in. He can finish with both hands well when he has it going. However, it’s made him not only a poor but a hopeless jump shooter. For me, that’s the piece that has ruined him. He’s so completely in his head over his shot that he refused to shoot and that’s when things snowballed for him. Now he’s a mess. I swear he was trying to foul the other night to get back to the bench in the first half. Took foul number 2 and 3 about 30 feet from the basket.

When I first got here, I was singing that tune as well. It’s actually amazing to think about how good he got with his off hand. It’s probably too late to switch him up now. If he listened to people, he would have done it already. I think he takes his money and runs. I wouldn’t be surprised if he steps away from playing. He’s the kind of person that hates to be average. He has always been dominant getting anywhere he wanted on the floor. I think there’s a 25% chance he just peace outs.
