A two-pod series starts today! For today's pod, we talk about what we'd do with the pick and the roster if the Sixers were to know that Joel Embiid will never play again. This weekend, we'll do the pod "if they know he'll be good to go this year." We also talk about the Sixers reported interest in VJ Edgecombe, and a very scary Ricky date that is upcoming in August.

The Thunder are if the Process worked. We check-in with Andrew Schlecht of Down To Dunk on being down 1-0 to the Pacers, what it's like to have the Process work, if he cared about the NBA Lottery, and cheering for a free throw grifter like we do. Then we check in with our friend Amos Lee on everything from the Pacers, the Sixers draft, God, music, and chest hair.

None of the remaining playoff teams are built around three stars. How do we compare the Sixers’ team building vs. the teams still remaining in the playoffs? Then we debate whether we'd rather have Paul George or Quentin Grimes, Tyrese Maxey or Jared McCain, and whether a The Rehearsal style situation would help get Ben Simmons back to prime form. Spike also mentions a problem he's having with his current YouTube Big Board.
