The Sixers’ young core of Tyrese Maxey, VJ Edgecombe, and Jared McCain is getting time in the gym together this offseason, preparing for a long season ahead. Are the seeds of a culture shift being planted?

The Sixers are being projected to win around 41 or 42 games with Joel Embiid and Paul George having major injury question marks. Too high or too low? Plus VJ Edgecombe updates and Daryl Morey talking about the Lakers’ 2020 bubble championship with an asterisk.

Quentin Grimes’ restricted free agency is dragging on, and some NBA executives believe the walk-away number on his contract is lower than you think. Can Daryl Morey get him on a fair deal? Plus, VJ Edgecombe’s appearance on the Podcast P Paul George podcast.

Can Sixers fans really expect Joel Embiid to offer much next season? Should the Sixers trade the Clippers pick sooner rather than later? Can Daryl Morey move Andre Drummond before the season starts? And more Sixers mailbag questions.

A recent report says Quentin Grimes could end up settling for a shorter deal with the Sixers. Would that be the right thing for Daryl Morey and Co., is it likely that Grimes would pass up long-term security, and what would you pay Quentin Grimes?

Jared McCain was an ultra-promising rookie who took the Sixers by storm. Can he push VJ Edgecombe and Tyrese Maxey in year two, or will it be an uneven year coming off of an injury?

Quentin Grimes’ free agency continues to drag on, when will Sixers and Daryl Morey get things resolved? Plus, would they ever trade Tyrese Maxey, Jared McCain, or VJ Edgecombe? Would Joel Embiid come off of the bench?
