Jason Timpf reacts to Joel Embiid's massive contract extension with the Philadelphia 76ers. Did Philly make the right decision investing so much money into injury prone stars in Embiid and Paul George? Later, Jason continues his power rankings ahead of the 2024-2025 NBA season with the New Orleans Pelicans, Golden State Warriors, and Indiana Pacers. Are Zion Williamson and New Orleans finally ready to compete in the Western Conference? Will Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and Golden State bounce back after a disappointing year? And why does Jason see Tyrese Haliburton and the Indiana Pacers as "the next great Eastern Conference titan,” and how close are they to becoming that?
