Lloyd, the PnR, it's HAPPENING!

What is it that's happening? I don't get what you are saying.

I kept reading guys parrot stuff about how unstoppable Fultz would be in Pick-n-roll with the 76ers, when the 76ers don't even run a Pick-n-roll offense. You said they would change the offense because they traded up to take a Pick-n-roll guard. I bet you they wouldn't change the offense for Fultz. And seeing as Fultz doesn't start or play much, I still don't see how they are changing the offense to accommodate him. They're still running the motion offense.


"Brett Brown talked about putting you in the pick and roll a bit more moving forward; you looked a lot more comfortable handling the ball.."

Don't have the Brett Brown video, but through the reporter, that's what Brett said. More PnR moving forward. The offense isn't being changed over night, but it's foolish to think that's not going to be a major part of his game moving forward. Not to mention, we ran, with great success, a **** ton of PnR last night.

Looks like a completely different player than he was at Washington. Still has a ways to go, but much better.

He knows he's not doing much well on offense so he needs to bring it on defense which is a good sign. He's finding other ways to be make a positive contribution for the team when he can't score which is encouraging.

none of us ever imagined fultz being a legit two way player. he’s far from being a good defender (as bias as i am, too small a sample size right now). but he’s taking baby steps towards being a complete player

What's up guys, I come in peace and in support.

I'd just like to say that I know Markelle aint looking too hot on offense but I'm convinced that it's a shoulder injury that either he or the staff is covering up. I know some folks have mentioned it before so I'm not going to beat a dead horse.

I will say, yall have a player on your hands and as soon as he rediscovers his stroke and is fully healed then yall Cerberus (Joel, Ben, Markelle) is really going to have you guys on the up-and-up.

I'm rooting for yall.
Super Eagles GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Let's keep it real. When the shot comes back his defense is gonna go back to Washington form. Hoping the dribble drive ability stays but he's showing effort defensively because he's giving us nothing on offense.

No new information but some acknowledgement, which lets face it is more information than what we've been getting.

I'd think it's way more exhausting to drive into the lane and dish it out or try to score over a big man than it is to take a jumper.

Could be true. But it's good to see a player like him recognize his lack of production and make up for it in other areas of the game. Even if he does have the yips, it's encouraging to see him channel his frustration in a positive direction on D.

Just got a Woj bomb on my phone.

Fultz had fluid drained from his shoulder and he'll be evaluated by a specialist.

I'm glad Fultz is getting diagnosed and will get treatment. But seriously, why on earth did he just play in 4 games? How is it this difficult to handle an injury situation? This organization borders on criminally negligent. Good god.

I'm glad it's an injury, but our franchise man. So disappointing that they are playing him. Why visit a specialist just now? Isn't this a multi billion dollar company that can fly in the best doctors?
