which game he plays, and which game he sits.


I'm guessing he'd rather go up against Gobert than Jokic. I know I would anyway.

From a matchup perspective obviously Denver is the better option in terms of possibly winning the game. Jokic is a fine player but he offers nothing to Embiid offensively/defensively, the process should dominate. Nurkic is out of the rotation and he at least could physically matchup with Embiid so the rest of their bigs are fodder. Only caveat is playing in Denver for the first time can be a bit risky with all the altitude and stuff.

Utah is the much better team and well probably get destroyed with/without Embiid. However playing in that game does give more rest afterwards.

I like Joel.

Maybe its just me, but I think Philly should draft more players as good as him.

We've cloned sheep, so why can't we clone basketball players especially really really good ones? :D

Twin Towers avoiding the inevitable pick-n-roll blender that Utah put us in the last game.

According to your logic, Tim Duncan doesn't deserve any respect.
