Westbrook was never one of my favorite players during most of his prime, but seeing how Westbrook has handled his last few years helped me gain a lot of respect for him.

Sure he never was the lead guy on a championship team, but his competitiveness is amazing. He played his best through all the Lakers drama. Westbrook also put up 37 in a playoff game in the most recent playoffs. I'm quite a huge fan of this late-career Westbrook.

Kobe - when I first started following the NBA as a kid, Kobe was the player I liked to root against. Near the end of his career I had nothing but love for him.

There was a time when Philly fans were debating trading embiid and building around Ben Simmons.

Lol I love how people just pretend that didn’t happen. Everyone just acts like they don’t remember. The majority of people were on the trade Embiid side too. I was alway so confused by it, like are we watching the same players?

In Philadelphia, the majority of us were very much not in favor of trading Embiid.

I’m sure you had a handful of WIP callers saying that, but that’s a constant in Philly media.

Embiid was pretty much always preferred over Simmons by our fan base.

Yeah it was an opinion plenty of people had, but the majority was in favour of trading Embiid

The majority of folks here were definitely NOT in favor of trading Embiid. I’m sure there were people who thought it. But that was absolutely not the majority in town at the time. Or ever when the two were here.

Simmons was always scrutinized here for his refusal to shoot.
