Yeah, people take it for granted that he's a Superstar max player, but he's not that guy. Tatum is a Tobias Harris, Kris Middleton, max player.

Towns has been phenomenal defensively this year.

Alexander-Walker's strides are sooo long. Glides on the court.

Even if he doesn't reach Paul George, he's a pretty safe bet to reach Klay Thompson.

Glenn Robinson

He's a better instinctive All-around basketball player than Robinson, but he loses it, whenever he trys to score on anything other than a wide open 3. He's going to need to break some bad habits in order to be an All-star.

Again, are we sure Doncic can shoot?

Doncic complains to the refs like a 10 year vet. Wise beyond his years.

I'm kinda hoping Utah goes into Staples and whoops the Lakers tonight.

redick 22 min 3 points 1/2 . Great production right there :lol:

Clear that Lakers needs help after AD and LeBron. They dont have enough time to “wait and see” if there is talent after those two.

Danny Green has been shooting well. But he’s no klay that you can expect elite consistency for the rest of the season.

Coby White: 25 points in 30 minutes off the bench

He can. Unless Ben can take his game higher this season, which I expect him to be, I put Doncic over him. Specially if we are comparing Ben’s 2nd year to Doncic’s first 2 games in his 2nd year.

It was an amazing return for superstar that wanted out... But if that's a robbery than the Clippers had a huge insurance policy on what they stole. Door unlocked and keys in the ignition type of robbery.

People thinking Embiid was living off Redick. Redick has been living off Embiid.

Nerlens Noel still can’t get minutes on a rebuilding team. This guy is nowhere near as valuable as Jrue.

Lakers beat up on the jazz with size, physicality and defense. Pretty much like the sixers

phillynative · Post #258 » by **phillynative** » Sat Oct 26, 2019 1:22 pm

Coby White would be our closer lol

He's a definitive tier above Simmons as a scorer.

I just think that if he's going to be a bad defender, he can't be one of these 31-33% from the arc, 70-75% from the line guys.

He needs to be posting Devin Booker, Jamal Murray and Zach Lavine percentages.

Kobblehead · Post #260 » by **Kobblehead** » Sat Oct 26, 2019 1:36 pm

BTW, are people chekcing out Zach Lavine's passing and defense so far this year? It's early, but...
