Show notes

The Out of Site Podcast has returned on a Tuesday. Your host, Adio Royster recorded during his time away from 'Korkmaz Island' with guest David Early because "Troel" Embiid has made a new appearance as of last week. The Philadelphia 76ers All-Star Center still has some feelings about Jimmy Butler, and he had some tweets expressing .. his .. missing (?) .. of Jimmy Butler yet again. Embiid has done this before, and while some may have chalked Embiid's antics to the usual ribbings from Embiid, there are others that decided to swing that pendulum all the way in the other direction.

The Gastroenteritis Blues: (124) Doc Stays in Philly, Joel Snubbed by First Team, Tobias Harris Year in Review May 30, 2022

Show notes

On tonight's episode of The Gastroenteritis Blues, Steve and Emily discuss the sad news of the Lakers hiring Darvin Ham as head coach, rather than Doc Rivers. They forlornly discuss what is all but sure to be another year of Rivers coaching the Sixers, and whether or not things with Doc are as bad as they at times feel. Also, what about the widespread fan opinion that Daryl Morey would like to fire Doc if not for Sixers' owners pinching pennies?

Then, they lash out NBA media voters for once again snubbing Joel Embiid from All-NBA First Team despite ranking second in MVP voting for the second consecutive season.

After the break, Emily and Steve are joined by Drew to take a comprehensive look at Tobias Harris' year in Philadelphia. A mostly down year from the forward has his future in Philly once again in doubt, so the trio takes a look at his stats, contract, and where he and the Sixers are likely to go from here.
