Thanks, hopefully nothing serious. The sixers and knee injuries just dont mesh well.

Okafor is scoring within the offense and finishing assists. This is an infinitely more tolerable player to watch.

....ugh, and then he isolation drives from the three point line. :banghead:

Jah really is a stumbling bumbling mess on D. He looks like he's trying but it's never gonna happen on that end. Focus on not being so ISO focused on offense and maybe you can carve a niche on a bad team.

Yea, Okafor looks better but man, I'm still ready for him to go. His iso offense is not needed here.

I honestly don't see him playing bad at all. Challenging shots every time as far as I am seeing. Much more active all around imo

Bayless gets nicked, immediately out of the game. Tatum gets hurt, stays in.

I like how in the play by play of games, turnovers are referred to as 'no turnover'.

7:48 no turnover 71 - 67
7:52 Jahlil Okafor no turnover Gordon Hayward 71 - 67
8:01 Kyrie Irving bad pass (Jahlil Okafor steals) 71 - 67
8:12 Jahlil Okafor no turnover 71 - 67

starting to worry about simmons finishing at the rim not gona lie.. and the ft stroke looks awful

all he had to do there was keep his dribble a bit long then euro step around him and easy layup instead he takes off from way too far away and got bailed out

ugh and misses 2 fts... smh

Simply getting him to open his feet and bend his knees would probably help his ft shooting.
