Vince Williams needs to fire his agent for locking into a min contract for 3 years with a team option. Should've been 1 year shorter and for slightly more. I know he's shooting slightly under 40% but with PT he's played really well and could get near the MLE in a year or so. He should've hired Devonte Graham's agent.

Embiid has double the aggression compared to Jokic?

According to NBA.com, Jokic takes 1 less FGA/game than Embiid in the restricted area...and he's taking 1 more FGA/game in the paint (not including the restricted area).
9. Similarly, IF THOU HAST SPENT the entire offseason predicting that thy team will stink, thou shalt not gloat, nor even be happy, shouldst thou turn out to be correct. Realistic analysis is fine, but be a fan first, a smug smarty-pants second.

Gortat was almost a Raptor a few times it seems:
"I wish that after I was waived by the Clippers, I had gone to the Toronto Raptors. They called me six times, and I didn’t go. I could have been an NBA champion today. Instead, I decided to go to Golden State, and they lied to me. They said, ‘No, no, no, we don’t need a big. We’re gonna take this small guy. You gotta take an additional guard.’ And two or three weeks later, they signed Andrew Bogut from the Australian league. That hurt"

Played with Lebron long enough to learn. But Lebron will never ever be suspended for it

Watching Knicks Nets. I didn't really follow NYK till OG went there. Just seeing this back-up C Jericho Sims for the first time. Imagine they had Robinson, Hartenstein and this big kid who barely plays till now. Contrast with Masai's failure to have any C's after Jak.

Pacers treat Siakam like how Darko did with Siakam in the first month of the season lol.

Yeah, he was great in the first quarter and then basically hasn't touched the ball since. Indiana still has a bunch of stuff to figure out.
Edit: Pascal has only played 22 minutes and still isn't on the court yet in the 4th. I think the assistant that took over after Carlisle got tossed may have legitimately forgotten that he's on the team now.

Re: Official NBA General Discussion 2023-24 V1.0
Indy should be using Siakam in the mid range and let him cook there instead of having him isoing around the perimeter and trying to attack a taller Jokic in the paint. Btw how was there a whole game thread about Siakam's first game and now there's only 4 posts for his game today? Lol

OG defense really drops of when he is playing off ball players. This is where Caruso differs from him imo, Caruso is a beast off ball.
