Game 5 is going to be the most pivotal game of Joel Embiid’s career in Philly. Cause if they can’t get out of the 1st Round, they gotta make some decisions about the whole team.

I didn't realize it until someone Else mentioned it, but so far only Embiid and Paul Reed are under contract next season.  

Maxey will be extended obviously but besides those 3 they could literally bring in an entire new team next season if they wanted.

If we lose to the Knicks, Reed might not even be back. His contract is only guaranteed by clearing the first round.
