If you are a max player in Phili with Collins as a coach you better do so. You know damn well how quick that town turned on everyone since Iverson even in baseball and football. They don't have tons of patience for stuff like not running back down the court, not joining huddles, popping 3s cause you feel like it, and then talking trash in the media and not showing up. Even Barkley said he's definitely the most talented Sixer since AI but his attitude may be a big problem.
that said it either works out for all parties, he gets traded at the deadline, or he walks. I hope personally that he does well there but it isn't a case where I will be sad if he didn't or will watch every game like I did with Nick and Eddie when they left. He could be special or he could settle for mailing it in; I'm just interested in seeing how he approaches it all because they have given him every tool he needs (Phil, Kobe, Kareem) he just needs to apply them and make his mark on the league
