Always love Embiid of all people complaining about a call

Yeah I’d love to see if KPJ can earn those minutes. Not starting but those minutes going from a guy that can’t shoot or dribble at all to a guy that does both pretty well would bode well offensively

I think GTJ has done enough to earn the starting spot back next to Kuz, Giannis, Brook, and Dame. I think that if you want to get excited about KPJ (I still struggle to get excited about a domestic abuser) that he has to be the primary offensive option (a la Bobby Portis) while he is on the court because he likes to call his own number too much.

That possession was great effort, but holy **** hit a shot.

Unethical hoops smh

I think I'd rather watch a colonoscopy than Embiid play. His game is just such a soft grift.

I literally said “not starting”

I agree with you. Start Trent or Green. More likely Trent, because vet

Kpj as a guard version of Bobby is a good way to put it. Just having a few guys we can ask to go get a bucket outside of Giannis is nice

I just mean that he literally will frustrate you with minutes being on the court with Bobby even. We have guys off of the bench in that case that would be very useful outlet shooters that will get ignored (they do now).

Would like to see some KPJ instead of AJax.

Refreshing to see someone working hard for rebounds.

Matches Malone · Post #133 » by **Matches Malone** » Sun Feb 9, 2025 8:08 pm

I like this switching small ball lineup.

We might be the best defensive rebounding team in the league at full strength, which isn't nothing. Khris was completely done as being able to fight for rebounds, his numbers are crazy down there

**** flopper

LMAO Embiid grifting

So if Ajax is suppose to be the defensive stopper and he isn't stopping Maxey, then get some offense out there and make Maxey work on the other end.

Post #138 » by **ReasonablySober** » Sun Feb 9, 2025 8:08 pm

God Embiid is just the worst.

These cut ins are annoying.

We are one of the worst offensive rebounding teams in the league. Being a good defensive rebounding team when you are playing horrible defense is not something to write home about.
