In the last game, JB only had one bad stretch in the 4th where he should have played the decoy more. Otherwise, he has to keep attacking to keep them blitzing him.


Yea, I think the 4th is what Jalen was referencing when he said he can play with more poise. There were times when he attacked and they helped off of Donte instead of Josh. He must stay aggressive and attack, but be ready to make the right read. They are using his aggression against him because they are speeding him up and he's missing things he usually notices.

What he can't do is just go out there and play like the immortal Ish Smith.

That's basically how Embiid plays the game though.

"Boo hoo, they hit me, I'm the better player, give me free throws."

"Boo hoo, he breathed on my space...FOUL FOUL."

"Boo hoo, I imagined that he hit me...it really hurt in my mind REF" flop flop*

The crew kinda balances each other out. If you ignore the W-L stuff, what one ref is known for 'high avg' another will have it as their 'low' etc. Seems pretty balanced. We'll see how it goes.

They need to keep their foot on their necks and take the refs and fanbase out of the game.

Morey has a history of doing this.

He did it when the Rockets were down 0-2, and then Houston won the next 2 games
