Wolves with D'lo are going to be a great offensive team.

But man are they going to be bad on defense.

Yeah he wants Miami. Butler/Embiid is the greatest NBA romance since Irving/Durant.

I think I'd rather Embiid stay in Philly than go to Miami tbh.

Nice clutch win for the Nets in Indy. Dinwiddie with the game winner.

Of course no Kyrie.

edit: This Pacers team isn't very good btw....

The pacers are horrible at closing out. At this point it’s purely mental. Nets as usual starting to win again when kyrie’s out. :lol:

Coaches challenges are ridiculous.

Detroit put up 76 points against Charlotte tonight. Thon Maker was the high scorer with 12. The teams combined to shoot 16 of 71 from 3pt and both teams shot sub 38% from the field. Fans deserve a refund lol

Nevermind. Small ball FTW.

Would really love it if Toronto played some real teams. This is getting ridiculous.

They definitely are. But they wouldn't even exist if the quality of the officiating wasn't 100 times more ridiculous.

Starting to wonder if these so called elite centers are becoming overrated in today's league.

So much talk on Houston but we been managing too with just Theis and Kanter. And sometimes just one of them.

Well, we were still winning with one of the hardest schedules in the league over the first couple months of the season, while essentially being down 4 starters plus 2 bench players for multiple games during those same first 2 months. Then the scheduled eased up a little, but we were still down 2 starters plus 1 sixth man essentially ever since.

Tonight we had zero C's. No Ibaka or Gasol, while playing against KAT, and a larger front line. So Nurse switched to small ball and zone D.

Your team is great, but I do believe at some point in the playoffs you will deeply miss Kawhi.

It's not like us with Kyrie either who gets the superstar label too for some reason. Kyrie flat out pooped all over the court in the playoffs and we nearly made the finals without the dude.

Giannis just had a son. Congratulations to him, and may his baby be extraordinarily full of energy, with very healthy lungs!

Defensive struggle!

It would be unfair if Kyrie (if he is even playing) gets to avoid Boston the entire year including the playoffs.

I feel like Skip Bayless wanting Kyrie and watching the Raptors win every game.

If they moved him I kinda doubt they move him to Miami.

This all could just be gossip too with the giant baby.

Joel already is known to be out of shape and not 100% focused all the time. That’s now. Put him in Miami and it will only be worse. Not to mention The heat lack assets and on top of it the sixers would be morons not to at least trying a coaching change before they move on from either player - even if we all know it most likely won’t work.

Joel would have to demand his way out.
