Does anyone else get reminded of Steve Nash the way McCain works keeping a live dribble as he probes the defense inside the paint?

But that’s the thing: neither of those guys are franchise players. At least McCain fits his role perfectly.

Not saying he's Nash; just that he has a calmness and he isn't just going into the paint to score, but is looking to see where the defense is opening up for a kickout. That's all.

Really only PG is having a decent game. We are shooting terrible.

Sixers and Phillies. Either everyone is hot or all go cold.

Embiid has a hitch in his shot now too?

Very sixers like to have a game where he finally get to play the 4 next to Embiid after playing out of position to start the season and he stinks

The Knicks are just a better team right now. If we can stay healthy, it might be a different conversation by February. I think we're just way behind as far as continuity goes. We have an entirely new roster and for the first month, both of our star players were shelved. Now...Maxey is out. The silver lining is that we've got a player in Jared McCain. He's getting valuable experience the same way Maxey was able to.

Lowry misses a wide open three and then Hart makes his. Not gonna get it done that way.

Mik317 · Post #175 » by **Mik317** » Wed Nov 13, 2024 2:48 am

Again they leave Lowry wide open because they know he won’t kill them

Still waiting for the refs to call that fishhook arm move Brunson uses on almost every play to get around a defender.

ivysixer2000 · Post #177 » by **ivysixer2000** » Wed Nov 13, 2024 2:49 am

Don't know why Hart loves to play us, but he kills us by himself.

Letting josh hart dominate you everytime you play . Let's you know your a team that isnt a true threat :lol:

This is also the first game back for Embiid. He doesn't really start cooking until a few weeks back. I'll give him the benefit here. Its going to take him a few games. He looked decent tonight movement wise. Much better than he did last April. Its gonna take time. We'll get it fixed, but guys have to stay healthy.

Team would be flat out unwatchable without McCain right now.
