Good thing happens when Tammy isn't playing.

He needs to go soon with his boy Kanter.

knox career high 31! I called it that he will get a 30 pt game this season. He will get more too. 50% shooting most importantly!

He should get the ball more, honestly, especially with how many minutes he plays.

Knox literally had to hold on to that ball for dear life because mudiay wouldn’t pass it to him in the fourth. I swear if he doesn’t ball hog the ball then he doesn’t even get a chance to shoot it. Poor dood

Knox 31 pts 7 rebs 52% fg 44% from 3

Vonleh was a -32, Kornet was a +24. Hell of a game for Kornet, the scoring, frustrating D at times, 5 assists.

Frank played well, team high 6 ast, +9 no turnovers 2 steals and a block

I thought Hezonja brought it in the first half

and we lost. pretty happy with this one

everybody dunk on the knox haters we got a stud

How are you going to get more ball between the fat fella youll draft this summer, KP and Knox?

What do you think about the makeup of your roster? It seems like a bit of an odd fit since Butler isn't a lights out type of shooter. I'm sure they'll be better as they continue to gain chemistry.

Aside from having by far the worst shot selection on the team, he disrupts the flow on offense way too often.

I wish Mills didn't have a hard on for him because he'd be a perfect player to try and dispose of before the ASG. The epitome of addition by subtraction.


Don’t forget Kanter clogging up the paint or Burke deflating the ball.

Knox is going to be top 5 offensive player in the league when he reaches his prime. Just wait on it.

I doubt it. Covington and saric were 3 and D guys. They miss that now

Anyone got a clip of that Knox stepback on Embiid people are talking about? I missed like 60% of the game.

Just imagine a Harden step back three but with a Klingon doing it.

Those 2 were a given already- was Burke injured today? it was good not to see him out there on the court chucking incessantly.

I admire Kanter's rebounding and efficiency but his defense is so bad that it makes him a net negative on the court. I don't see any future for Kanter-Burke-Lee-Thomas-Hardaway Jr. I'm ambivalent to Mudiay as of right now but wouldn't want him back for anything over 6-7 million per year which is pretty good money for a backup PG.

In light of this game, Tammy, Penes, CLee, and LFT are expendable...
