Trae is playing selfish. His team made a huge run with him and the bench and him not handling the ball. He got into I need my numbers mode there. Just let the game come to you. Be a decoy all game if you have to.

LouWill is imo just awful, and been that for years now. Same story as Jamal Crawford, just hurting his team.

Yeah it wasn't close and it was the wrong play too. Clips don't miss that.

While that is true, he is a young star and he has to learn that. Every guy makes those mistakes early on.

Dude, the bench line up put us on a 17-0 hole last time, the fact doc insist with it it's just madness.

Look what happens when the Starters are in....

You don't have to not play the bench but putting all bench line ups out there on the playoffs is just suicide


i know, i know. But you are not winning this series if you do not give those guys a chance. i mean, what better time to "experiment" and try to get them going when you have a double digit lead. i agree, if this happens again in the second half, a shorter lease is needed...

That's not a foul. Trae gets insane whistles from the zebras.

That is how I feel about MPJ. Lots of talent but the IQ/awareness isn't there.

Capela cannot guard Embiid at all, why are people pretending that he's actually doing something out there defensively against Embiid :lol:
