What is Mattise Thybulle doing nowadays?

Step 1: Trade for Thybulle.
Step 2: generate income from Thybulle x George x McCain vlogs
Step 3: have enough cash for fourth apron

Curry is the craziest front runner of all time

His threes feel like shotgun blast to the chest

I know Curry is making his shots. But its our offense which is a bigger problem.

They banked on his insane growth to continue and for him to be more than that. And he finally hasnt

Yeah, he’s peaked. His game is very limited. I would build a team around McCain and somehow get rid of Paul George and Joel Embiid. Those two are losers.

An offense which hunts 3s and backdoor cuts vs An offense to set-up a contested jumper at the elbow

I've already forgotten the Celtics win. This team is hot garbage. The idea that injuries to Oubre and KJ are a big deal...please, give me a break.

The coach is clueless and like I said a million times, the GM has no clue how to build a basketball team.

“I just told them that one time in the D League, we won a Game 1 on the road. It was actually against Rio Grande Valley, and nobody really expected us to. We went down there — we lost all our players to call-ups. And they were great. And all of the sudden, we get back home and the city of Des Moines was going crazy because we were up 1-0 and had two home games. We were going to win the D League title. They were planning parades, asking us for ring sizes. Next game, we went out and got beat by about 25. I was just trying to tell that story to say to the guys, ‘Listen, everybody’s gonna try to take you to places that you’re not to yet. You can’t let that happen.’

“So, I started telling the story about parades, and Kawhi jumped in right in the middle and goes, ‘The D League? I’m done listening to this story.’

Should've known we were cooked with Nurse after I first read this story.

Yabusele having Vietnam level flashbacks watching Curry go completely berserk from deep.

As I said, we were one Caleb Martin hot from 3 game away from having zero wins against any quality opponent that was at full strength. We should have tanked. The org was dumb, especially once McCain was lost for the season.

Most overrated player in the history of the Philadelphia 76ers. Now his attitude is getting worse I would get rid of this guy while people still think he’s good. He’s not.

I think you're a bit harder on him than is warranted, but you're entitled to your opinion. He's been objectively great recently, but has played 40+ minutes in 4 of the past 5 games.

these guys get too many excuses these days. iverson played 40 plus minutes every night and left it all on the court.

Iverson was better than Maxey.

LeBron playing until he's 40 so therefore everyone should with no drop off.

Iverson was better than Maxey.

without a doubt way more talented, but im talking mental toughness and effort.

maxey has gotten way to in his head this year about not getting calls and forces too much.

Iverson was a freak of nature...to expect anyone to have that same stamina is just stupid.

I swear this fanbase is so quick to get on any player for not being tough and then throw out a guy who is just not normal (not to mention ignoring his own issues most of the time). Its not about toughness...dude is allowed to run out of gas especially when more than likely he is in a role he isn't built for and often one of two guys worth a damn on the court scoring wise. Iverson being able to shoot 30-40 times a night no matter what is not a normal thing thats what made him special. And even then there was a ton of of 5/26 nights in those too and him not having a Biid or even a washed PG to also take shots only made him even more emboldened.

Its not about toughness or a guy not being good actually but rather the fact that basketball is a TEAM sport and too often we overtask guys for roles they aren't built for and then get mad when they can't superman the team on their back every night no matter what and then go bu-but Iverson tho or bu-but his contract doe. Its the Iggy thing all over again lol. Sometimes players are still good despite not being able to solo teams guys. Maxey again has legit won us a playoff game or two each year, he is going to be fine. He's not a set up guy sadly and a lot of this season banked on that but he is still an elite off ball threat...something that makes him very easy to build WITH even if not AROUND. And thats ok. You need guys who are good too...not everyone has to be the guy who carries. I swear this fanbase expects every player to be perfect and flawless and capable of putting up 50/20/10 at a moments notice.

Yes, once again, Iverson was one of one. You’re talking about one of the toughest players in nba history. Maxey is a Bradley Beal level player. The two are not the same.
