Are you talking about Luka Doncic? He is more Harden than Ginobili. He is also not 6'10, closer to 6"8. 68 Harden if he reaches his ceiling. Evan Turner with a jumpshot is his floor.

So happy. Always good to have a superstar back in any lineup. Interested to see how the spurs come together with klaw, gay and lma

That's a solid 3,4,5 lineup. Rudy can really help them out being a versatile defender.

Carroll is a difference maker in Brooklyn. Good for him. Tonight 15 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and a +15 for the game.
Bradley Beal had an incredibly ugly 28 points on 11/33 shooting.

Some of the blocking fouls Embiid draws are such bs lol. Refs gotta clean that up.

I know the Sixers are a division rival and all, but I really want Embiid and Simmons to stay healthy. They are so much fun. Embiid is already getting superstar calls but he’s really an elite player already, it’s crazy. This game has been fun so far.
Hawaiian pizza is good.

Embiid getting way too much love for the refs, gets blocking fouls instead of offensive ones. Also Wiggins trash

The T-Wolves are not going to be a great team if they let Butler be their best player over KAT&Wiggins.

Let? He is a better player than both those guys this far in his career. Especially Wiggins. Butler is an elite defender whereas KAT is, from my perspective and many others, a poor defender.

I think he means on Offense. KAT is definitely underutilized on that team. He's one of the best scorers in the league. But being used as a 3rd option.
Wolves should use KAT like the Sixers use Embiid
