Yet your fans want him for Harden, Masai would not include him in a deal for with KD last season and Lillard this year. Only his 3rd season and reason he has not done a lot was Nurse let Fred and Pascal take turns jacking 25 plus shots a night and no one else ate.


Who are you even taking about? Why are you attacking us right now? We love you, and we care deeply about you and your feelings. Can I buy you a Snickers?


Ok bro, have a nice day


Did you get your Snickers bar yet?

So, i saw the game now, some little comments:

Kind of disappointed in Springer being buried behind House and Danny. I hope that the situation improves.

Maxey looks seriously legit right now, obviously, we need to hit the pause button because 2 games is a super small sample, but his game with Embiid is more dangerous than Harden's IMO, because Joel is more apt at playing DHOs and screening for other guys than rolling in PnRs, Harden loosing his driving ability also made the PnR between them more predictable.

But the better development has been on creation IMO, 8 and 7 assists are a great number of improvements for him and he would likely end with more if Oubre and House didn't miss some bunnies.

Talking about Oubre, i already see myself asking for him to get traded after 20 or so games, guy goes on ISO half of the time if he gets the ball with the defense set and some of his shots are just bad. I lol at the fact he's taking almost as many shots as Maxey and Joel.

I like how the offense looks like right now but i don't understand those lineups Nurse is using at the start of the 4th quarter, against the Bucks was the Oubre line up and yesterday he went for a Tobias line up. Just stagger Joel and Maxey. I like the experimentation tho, i would like to try a Reed/Joel line up

Imagine a PF next to Embiid who is athletic, powerful, defensively dominant, and can shoot!


Not sure if anyone told you this but OG cannot stand Nurse and Raptors can include a 5th year. Siakam is available and he loves Nurse

Nah, we'll take OG.

For rest? He rest all offseason and preseason
