Sheppard’s size would be an issue for his upside

It has to be frustrating for Maxey to see similar build quick players get rewarded for forcing the same contact he does when he drives. Maxeys inability to get calls is what's really hindering him from making another leap as a player.

Good defense Maxey.

Why did I just watch this team run an Oubre/KJ Martin PnR?

Also please watch their half court sets when Maxey doesn't have the ball and sits at half court with a defender face guarding him.

That level of spacing alone is what should make offenses great if you've got guys capable of taking advantage. Even George alone should make a difference. Literally able to go 4 on 4 without even needing to be involved

KJ has serious limitations, but I like him on the court. Guy just went vertical stopping a layup and then defended the 3 off the rebound

Council was going to get sent to delaware if he missed that lol

Ricky Council needs to start getting Oubre’s minutes.

Maybe Yabu at the 4 is the solution

Nick Nurse drinking a San Pellegrino while wearing his brand new white Keds is all I need to know at this point.

We should be winning this game. Too many blown defensive assignments, missed box outs, missed FTs, etc. Lots of unforced errors.

After the past 2 days where it's been revealed the team knew about Joel's knee and somehow thought it was still a good idea to give the extension; it's really hard to have any emotion for this team. Now McCain has gotten cold and the one joy there was to watching has dimmed.

Even with the team keeping it close; it's almost more of a poisoned pill if they win. I'm just numb at this point.

Maxey could get killed out there and they just don't care

Maxey has to have more bag when he drives to the paint. He’ll never gonna get calls by doing straight line drives

Competitive tanking is the best tanking

Considering the amount of contact on that drive, a rape whistle in his bag could've helped

Because its straight line and too quick. The defense expects it while its not giving the refs a chance to blow their whistle. You need to get the defense in a wrong position.

I'll never understand why Max gets no calls at all.

If the ref is gonna blow their whistle that way, Colin Sexton would average 25ppg and be an allstar.
