Our first round pick from the Mavericks next year is looking better by the minute. That front office is a mess.

wonder if we could get a complete season with all the brothers signed to the roster combined lol. for some reason I doubt we would get close to 50 games

Embiid is another cautionary tale of the downside of trying to play through injuries. Its really sad to see him going out like this. Hes one of the most talented basketball players we've ever seen.

It’s probably all the extra flopping he does

vj is like the nba rookie version of benjamin buttons. every game is worse than the previous game. 1-for-10 right now vs celtics.

VJ has still been impactful in other areas when his shot hasn't been fallen. Its probably going to take a little time for his shooting and finishing to become more consistent.

Ace can really wow you when he is playing well. His future is a bit of a wild card, but he has a lot of potential.

Egor has been playing better the last few games. His 3pt shooting has progressed a ton and his passing/vision in elite. Scoring inside the 3pt line is still a huge issue for him though. Also needs to get stronger.

I really like this class tbh.

Im happy for ace. I just think his agent is a dumbass. He’s going to end up alright. Or maybe more than alright.

Embiid played the first couple games when he came out firing. Now that he’s out VJ is going to be dialed in on. I’m interested to see how he responds.

I mean he clearly wasn't healthy to start the season. I think once he gets going he's be a scoring machine in the second half of the season. Especially once Utah is resting more of their vets.

VJ came out shooting way above what was expected, this slump was always bound to come.
People always overrate hot shooting to start the year and then are surprised when guys numbers fall once they aren't hitting 50% of triples.

It kind of blows my mind that the Clippers thought that they could just open a retirement home for 35 year olds, All hinging on the health of a guy who has not played Consistently in 5 plus years.

I'm so glad that team is flopping.
