In his IG Q&A, AD just said Kyrie has the best handle in the NBA. It can only mean Davis to Boston real soon.

Don't put me on ignore and you'll get the latest social media buzz and spot-on analysis this side of the GB.

Subtle difference I noticed. JB is rocking Cs gear. Tatum rocks Duke or something else. Nothing right or wrong with either, but I’d be hella hyped to wear my pro gear.

Never got that.

Unless they play in the finals a few times.

In the meantime, the Sixers are shaping up to be a doozy of a rival for the visible future.

Not.


Philly certainly could be a major rival. I'm guessing:

-- Simmons will not remain a choker.
-- Simmons will become an adequate jump/set-shooter by big man standards but not by perimeter player standards.
-- Fultz will be a competent but not all-star guard.
-- Embiid's health will stabilize.

If those things happen, the Sixers will likely be a very good treadmill team.

If things go even better for the Sixers, which is certainly possible, then they will likely indeed be a major rival.

Is that kid his?

He grew really fast lol.

I really really hope we don't have another Dwight Howard on our team, that's just nasty if he goes that route, having 10-15 kids from multiple women.

Paul Zipser is a free agent, Bulls waived him.

I'd be interested if he signed for the vet minimum.

I doubt that Jayson Tatum would get away with that, with his Mom behind him. She seems pretty strong.
As you can see, Tatum is obviously in his Son's life. The Kid is with him often.

As far as Dwight Howard. He doesn't have quite as many as "10-15 Kids".
Never married, Howard is the father of five children, by five different women, living in three states.

Both Hassan Martin and Jared Uthoff have both demonstrated that they can play. If Georges Niang can get an NBA deal, so can they.
