ATL - Embiid Out for the Season

If the Mavs were smart (they are not), just let the fans vent and it will eventually go away. Now that they've made a big deal about it, it will go on much longer

Speaking of which I wonder about Jason Kidd’s role in this catastrophe.

I actually believe Nico and ownership kept him out of the loop from whatever corrupt motivations ultimately led them to gift Luka to LA.

But I bet Kidd was on his own power trip talking serious ish about their now former franchise cornerstone too.

Karaoke cam guy was ALSO ejected by security.

Embiid gets shy on a wiiiide open three to put Philly ahead and makes it worse by then turning it over. Philly crowd does Philly things.

That seems fishy... I just watched Embiid drill three after three against us. That looks like they lost on purpose

This just might have drawn more attention to those two & their signs.

What's funny is that the Sixers still need to out-tank one of Washington, Charlotte, New Orleans, Utah, Toronto, or Brooklyn unless they wanna cough up a Top-10 pick to OKC. Good luck with that.

That last dunk was absurd.

Just to be funny they should've had some random dude from the crowd who is like me (mid 40s and could never dunk) to be the third person in the contest.

Red jersey guy was very DMase/JRich inspired. Both of his last two dunks were basically from the same dunk contest between those two. He did a (better!) version of what JRich won with.

Utah up 20 on the Luka Lakers currently

LeBron’s a tweener and Luka won’t help the crappy defense

Knicks v Hawks was wild.

Fultz would have been a nice add here.

A call goes against Butler in crunch time?

Bones Hyland released by Atlanta. Thought he was on a Jamal Crawford trajectory of being a microwave off the bench when he was in Denver. He can still shoot it and think a player like him could benefit from the gravity Giannis provides, but I'd probably pass now.
