We have been so good without og I have no idea what people are talking about. Not to mention og has been horrible all season. That combination makes me wonder wtf everyone is clamoring about. For example, we "need siakam." we don't need og.


we don't actually NEED him, you're right.

but I want him.


Again, no idea why you'd want him as he makes us worse. He's garbage right now. He's basically mccaw at the 4 position. Although that's probably a Horrible comparison because you probably overrste mccaw as well.

If thats sarcasm then u really don't understand basketball and just stare at boxscores. Go to Memphis.

Yeah seriously. Gasol is the god damn cog to our team's wheel. He is oil that we need to keep the offensive engine fluid. Gasol is absolutely brilliant - I don't give a sh*t about his stats.


If he's so important to the team, then why didn't Nurse put him on the court for the 4th quarter like AT ALL?! You'd think he'd want Gasol's amazing defense and passing to be used as much as possible like he ran with Kawhi and Siakam most of the game?

If the refs call a fair game and allow Gasol and embiid to battle it out physically, Gasol will come on top every single time. I predict embiid to be well below his season averages this series.

The only thing I worry about is the heavy minutes from our starters. I just hope they don't get wear off too much when we are in decisive games. Which is why even when Ibaka and Freddy have bad games I can give them a pass. Look at our 8-12 spots from our roster, they cant even play garbage minute properly

Amazing individual performances by Kawhi and Siakam. I thought our rotations were predictably trash. Ibaka was a weak defensive link and an offensive black hole most of the night. We overplayed Norm and FVV again, and against their biggest line-ups. Our elite talent saved us. Not sure why it is we won't exploit our killer starting 5 more minutes. I hope this doesn't bite us later.

Scrubs laid an egg for the second consecutive playoff game, playing without a basket for another 2.5 minutes after getting none in over 5 minutes last game.

It was never about logic. It was about emotion. I still miss Jakob. He's starting a seventh game for the Spurs.

Need to stop expecting this. They've sucked all season.

I am most impressed with Siakam's 3 point shooting improvements. This mans is lights out.
