We're gonna need to find a back up center.

Look, small sample sizes are tricky.

Still he has several of the things this team lacks, most importantly: he's a great distributor and playmaker. But his offense, even with the good footwork he has, is gonna be dependent on his 3 point % and he's shooting Curry numbers on this streak, that's going to go down eventually ( and if not, throw the bag at him already lol)


The only way he doesn't pan out as a star is if he is a complete chair on defense. Seems good enough so far and that's mostly from effort.

Otherwise, he's elite on offense already.

Seems like Caleb takes 2 steps and jumps too forward on his shot.

He’s in a different postal code after he lands from his jumper

For all the flack he gets from fans, can we all credit Morey for being a lowkey great drafter? Obviously, he missed on the Springer pick (no GM has a perfect record) but his other two first round picks look amazing thus far.

It looks like Caleb is literally fighting the shooting curse taking over his body every jump shot he takes.

On another note, Suggs does not look much bigger than McCain at all. McCain is eating him up too

This lineup is the PG **** all over again but with Joel.

At this point i don't think you can't play lineups with Oubre and Martin together, throw Gordon there too if you want

We need to run all these complex sets for Embiid because he doesn’t move much on offense. Without them, teams can easily zone up on him. However, running these intricate plays becomes challenging when you’re playing with new teammates who aren’t yet familiar with each other.

It would be a lot simpler running an offense with a wing or a guard, then have a center just rolling to the rim collapsing the defense

McCain is what we needed last year: someone to bail us out when everyone is looking like hot garbage. Hopefully he has a big 4th.

So it’s their fault Joel ball stops, doesn’t make quick reads, dribbles in to traffic and throws up wild shots? Ok.
