Malik Monk takes a vow of silence at the rim.

Fox is 1-8 FG. Love his potential, but damn. Cannot get his buckets.

The Cavs are struggling against the Knicks. The Cavs may not make the playoffs lol. Kyrie won.

If Fultz put up those Monk or Fox numbers, he would be getting grilled here. He might have to move to get away from the torches and pitchforks. They are young, they will learn. Fox will be fine, but if Monk's shot isn't falling he's useless.

Cavs really need Isiah cause Rose isn't a replacement for Kyrie, there is a reason why they got him so cheap.

Cavs look old out there.

Spencer Dinwiddie continues to play extraordinarily.

22 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals.

LeBron was a -17 tonight.

Thank you Hinkie. And when I say thank you Hinkie I mean you blew it.

As long as he stays away from this sixers subforum, he will be fine. 8-)

It’s kind of funny reading the replies to that tweet, turns out this guy was the biggest Porzingis critic and despised the pick.

You can't sign Nick Young and expect wins.

Warriors fall to 4-3.

The combined record of the teams we played the first 5 games of the season is 21-10.

I couldn't do this with the Rockets, but I can do it now.

Sixers beat the Pistons who beat the Warriors in Golden State, which means Sixers are winning the title this year!

how the hell are the pistons 5-2? they were the one team that i was 100% sure the sixers would beat.

Well if we had gotten Porzingis, we might not have Simmons or Fultz.

So your welcome Knicks, although Embiid and Porzingis would've been a nightmare for anyone. But hey unicorn, if you wanna come over, we still might have space and we have your fellow countryman you grew up with already....just don't sign that extension.

It's weird because Andre Drummond, Reggie Jackson and Tobias Harris had bad performances against us, but they've been awesome against everyone else (it helps having stars that play defense in Simmons and Embiid).

Also, TS% aside, Stanley Johnson is having a strong season, by his standards. Scoring about 8 a game while playing the best defense of his young career. Another guy that was a no-show against us.

We would have. Porzingis would not have won us 8 more games to lose the top pick.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

I'd rather have all 3 of those at the moment and try to get that big FA next summer or the one after that.

I'm still wondering what Cousins wants to do....

Ironic thing is someone called him out for stating Ingram would be better then Ben and his response was it's too early to call.

Kobblehead · Post #1460 » by **Kobblehead** » Mon Oct 30, 2017 2:18 pm

I don't blame the sports bloggers. They were lead-astray by the draft sites and an irresponsible early Kevin Durant comparison.

Even though Ingram wasn't athletic, couldn't finish and needed all his offense created for him by teammates at Duke.
