Im souringnon him for a while now. He hunts for fouls and does that head snap like he was shot. Plus he flops a lot.

I mean i get it.. he is only 6ft and he needs every advantage possible. Yet those embiid, harden, lowry floppers really make me sour on the game.

He almost looks as solid as Anunoby, too. Not as muscular, but comparable weight.


Really? OG is one of those heavy types. He is like 240lbs right? AB looks like 210 tops.

idk.....AB is like 6'8 i'd be surprised if he was 210 at that height

Great effort tonight. No Paolo, No Wagners, No Suggs, no problem.

All after a disappointing effort last night. I like it.

Maybe we need Cole’s mom to move to Orlando and get her tickets to all the games. He seems to play well when his family is in attendance.

So nice we kept the lead separated and I could watch this one close out with a W - and against the damn Knicks too! Got discharged from the hospital over weekend and gotta be careful with these types of things for the next little while, ya know? ;)

Was about to say something similar .... But on a few of his drives. He might have missed them but but his size and athleticism gets him to h where he wants to be time and time again... Getting good looks at the rim. He will be a hard cover for most teams at the PG position in the future.

He's still not old enough to even drink. Yeah.... Not sure why people want to get rid of him. Also.... 5 assist 1 TO... Loved it. Got into the teeth of the defense and passed out at the right times. Great game.

Jett looked good. That 3 at the half was a huge momentum lift. Great timeout by coach to set that up.
