I can get with this poll. Only the few and the proud can play here in NY. We prolly wouldn't want 90% of the players that voted on this so I can appreciate the sifting of talent. Just because you're good doesn't mean you're good for New York!!!

Embiid is a frontrunner, and so is the rest of the 76ers by default

we need to go all-in this game, break their spirit and any hopes they have

so brunson plays 44 minutes, but his 8 extra are going to be him playing offball in the corner.

They would rather be on the awful Pistons than the #2 seed Knicks lmao. That's why the all-star weekend is so terrible now. The 90s mentality is long gone, you have to force these mfers to play.

I don’t even understand the point of that poll besides just trying to make a few coaches feel and look bad lol

Maxxey not at shootaround. So it's not a fake illness.

Maybe that's why you go after Mikal next year rather than a bigger star. He'd fit with Nova brothers plus he plays Thibs style D

Low key trying to manipulate the reps into swallowing their whistles while they hack and whack Brunson and another Knicks players tonight.

Embiid is the flopping king, so Nurse crying about the refs is hilarious

Lowry too. His entire game is built around trying to bait for fouls.

he even tried to bait a call after the fast break dunk by deuce. he stood under the basket intentionally in the landing space of deuce and then looked at the ref like "hey he swung into me". dude GTFO the way

Seeing Nurse on there reminds me. Supposedly Giannis asked African brothers Siakam and OG about Nurse last summer and they gave negative report. And that's why Giannis pushed for Adrian Griffin instead.
