I told you all this man was going to be dangerous. All I got was scoffs in the draft thread.

Nba should give 10 game suspension to KAT, 10 to Simmons, and 41 games to Embiid. It’s not just the fight, it was all the things after too.

I get it that athletes say they aren’t role models, Barkley said it 25 years ago. When you not only aren’t a good image of the league, but a terrible one off the court, the league has an obligation to come down hard tho. Embiid embarrassing not only himself, but the entire league.

Simmons tried pulling Towns(the closet of the 2 to Simmons) away from Embiid and just didn't let go, in fact it looked like Simmons was talking to Towns trying to calm him down. Also, Teague jumped in and was trying to pull Embiid himself. What wasn't good was the announcer saying Simmons was "double teaming" Towns and that wasn't the case, he was just trying to separate both of them the quickest he could.

From my perspective, Towns looks to be trying to change his attitude(or perception) of being soft/not willing to fight back, I'm not saying he's trying to fight but things that he's probably just taken before from people he's no longer taking. If this is what's happening it's a very good thing for the Timberwolves and it's what Butler was trying to get through to him, he wanted Towns to come back at him, he's too good of a player to just let people push him around.

Didn't hate PJ, but in the draft, and league in general, it makes the most economical sense to go from the highest possible ceiling down.

Any pick can flop, and shooting for players with average ceilings will grant you the opportunity to be average. Can't be in the lotto, scrapping for guys that might be top-30, top-40 someday

Simmons looked as if he was just trying to seperate the 2 centers. He put little pressure on Towns for trying to contain him, even looked like Simmons was talking to him trying to calm him down. In real time it looks a lot worse than it probably was. Still don't know who really started it, I'm sure Embiid was verbally pushing Towns and finally Towns decided not to take it anymore(which I believe is a great sign from him if that's what happened).

Might want to get it recalibrated. Embiid is a child. Dude going on twitter acting a fool and trying to suck Jimmy B in. Not sure why you enjoy that drama?

I believe that Simmon was trying to mediate the situation but I'm still laughing about KAT tapping out :lol:

NBA doesn't have the spine to dole out that many games to their top commodities. KAT 3, Simmons 2, Biid 5 or something like that :dontknow:

Embiid is a child.. Agreed there.. but Simmons gets a lot of unwanted flak. Also, he's a big buddy of KAT. So it's very likely he was simply calming him down.

I'm not. I just think that asking for 41 game suspension for nothing is silly
