Michael Jordan may not have had early team success but he never had a playoff series like pascal just did..terrible analogy.

Pascal struggled since January and most of his scoring outburst were vs lottery teams. He folded in the playoffs and should have been benched. He cost them.

Op mentions Jordan and now you I still two perennial all stars who both are career 20ppg+ in the post season.

They didn’t show up for one game..pascal was a net negative from round 1.

You the man Pascal! Work hard, keep your nose clean and never be afraid to fail. You'll earn every cent of that jumbo contract and you'll prove to yourself that you can be an elite player in this league.

This is what I hate about assumptions based on conjecture, they have no basis or merit but the person will still have hubris and tout their intelligence based on having more experience than others, despite not actually knowing information about the others they are making assumptions about.

Been watching since 95, Pascal choked, he didn't work for months after he got paid and looked terrible since February.

Calling a spade a spade has nothing to do with watching recently.

Don't assume anyones history because their opinions differ from yours.

Yeah, I'll wait for next season to see how Siakam responds. Hopefully it's Rico Hines part two in the off season.

PSizzle coming back strong for the 2020/2021 season. Look forward to his further improvement and development.

I understand rooting for your favourite teams and players, but what is this "We love you," nonsense? Pascal doesn't know who you are, save the love for people in your life who can reciprocate.

Lol it was the exact same deal with Powell. That contract was supposedly one of the worst in the league

Pascal Siakam should never get compared to the GOAT. What he needs to do is get in the gym and work with Drew Hanlen and improve his offensive game like Oubre, Tatum, Embiid, and Book are doing with him. That's what he needs for the next step. I don't know if he'll ever be a #1 option but that will help.

Point blank, Pascals biggest advantage over everyone he’s leapfrogged since entering the league was his speed and motor. He needs to remember that while still adding things to his game and maintain his identity as an underdog. Money makes that exponentially more difficult to do, but I have hope he can ground himself again.
