Simmons and Embiid are still young as hell. They could both easily still get better in the years to come, and there's no reason to think they're just going to fall off in the next 3-5 years. They both should be great for close to another decade. I know it's the NBA and the hip thing is to win now, and blow everything up if you don't win a title in the first 3 seasons of a certain lineup, but I'd much rather see them ride things out unless there's some kind of irreconcilable differences that come up (which for all I know, there is, but I'm not aware of anything).
Yeah I'm not saying they're going to fall off, lol. Just that they should be at the top of their game right now, and if the best this philly team can do is be scraping into the playoffs then questions need to be asked.Simmons and Embiid are still young as hell.
