I think if you consider him as a conley tier type of player he can still be a valuable.

He still won two playoff games by himself. But if you count on him to be anything more than a fourth or even 3rd option you are making a big mistake.

I hate to sound like a fan of Harden, but if I was a Denver GM, Harden/Jokic pnr is still a cheat code in this game. At the very least he knows to get out of the way and not take shots away from Jokic and only pick his spots

Did the refs rig the game for the Celtics today?

Yeah I feel for Doc...good for him hoodwinking every contending team thinking this guy is going to lead them to a title. I wouldn't be surprised if he's going to be joining Monty Williams after this. :lol:

What is that giving them over Jamal Murray when you take age into account and you can't maximize Harden's playmaking

I have defended Embiid for years, but - and all due to credit to Al Horford for his defensive performance - that was a massively disappointing performance. Too many turnovers, not aggressive offensively, just...this wasn't a good game for his legacy. Man.

What a game for Tatum though. I rooted hard for the Celtics in last season's playoffs and I'll be rooting for them the rest of the way.
