Daryl Morey and Doc Rivers are confident that the Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons can win together with the Philadelphia 76ers.<\/p>\n
Per The Score<\/a>, “The chance to work with Joel and Ben and the roster that (general manager Elton Brand) had put together, this is a roster that has championship aspirations and can win the championship,” Morey\u00a0said<\/a>. “You can’t ask for anything more.”<\/p>\n “I have no doubt they can (win together),” Rivers said. “Again, I haven’t been in the lab with them yet. But I know they can. I think we have to change the narrative – (it’s) ‘They haven’t won yet,’ not, ‘They can’t win.'”<\/p>\n “The goal is not to shoot 3-pointers, the goal is to win. You can score on offense in a whole bunch of different ways,” Morey said. “Joel just happens to be one of the most efficient post-up players in the league. I used to get the question in Houston, which was like, ‘What would you do if you had (Shaquille O’Neal),’ and my answer was I would give the ball to Shaq about 100 times a game.”<\/p>\n Morey added: “We played the way we played in Houston because that was the best way to utilize the talents we had in Houston. Doc, I know, knows how to win – more than me, frankly.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" “We played the way we played in Houston because that was the best way to utilize the talents we had in Houston”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":145,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_spbk_hide_featured":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[399],"tags":[822],"rumors":[],"typology":[],"posizionamento":[],"class_list":["post-181396","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-nba","tag-philadelphia-76ers-en"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","digistream_id":0,"digistream":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181396","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/145"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=181396"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181396\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=181396"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=181396"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=181396"},{"taxonomy":"rumors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rumors?post=181396"},{"taxonomy":"typology","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/typology?post=181396"},{"taxonomy":"posizionamento","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posizionamento?post=181396"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
