Embiid is a big yawn. Doncic is not doing well.

Games like tonight is when AD just needs to dominate but I just don't see it from him.

When people want to clown on Joker last night. Let me know how easy it is to carry an offense as a big man in the modern nba (especially when you got nothing around). Embiid can only do so much and he’s not as good as Joker. They really need help in Philly

Kemba on fire. Seth Curry sucks donkey balls on defense. Where is Tobias Harris??? Where is Embiid? Where is leadership???

For such a veteran team, Lakers play with very little discipline offensively.

Yeah I agree Embiid is damn good but MVP is Joker and deservedly so (speaking of last year and comparing big men so far this year).

Relax they just lost to the worst team in the league in their last home game


OKC are not better that the Magic.


Okc is better IMO. Close but Sga is much better than anyone in Orlando. Better coach too Orlando losing Clifford was big.

Curry and Draymond got off the plane in OKC. Not sure where their teammates are. I really hope Klay is ready to be Klay come February/March and into the playoffs, because this team desperately needs another calming presence in a high usage role. Poole is a fun young player, but I don't trust him for anything. He needs to be that guy that you go to when he's feeling it, not every night.

This is rough, because I'm looking at all the defensive issues first. Just a looooooooot of holes to fill, with a bunch of old-ass dudes trying to fill them.

And the same ppl find every little detail to criticize Jokics defense but overlook all of Joels defensive problems. Joel is a much better defender but hes not exactly Hakeem out there. He has alot of holes on defense himself

Warriors getting destroyed by OKC.

They need Klay back in the worst way. They are still lacking a true #2 option. Going to be hard for them to win games unless Curry goes for 30-40, similar to last year.

With that runout as Exhibit A. Westbrook stands around admiring his brick, nobody else rotates back, easy dunk. Poor awareness, worse effort.

11 point game is getting destroyed? All it takes is one Curry Flurry to turn it around.

I think defense is a lot of energy and game plan, so I'm not too concerned there. Lineups with AD & Dwight will still be elite protecting the rim and LeBron and Russ can defend when they want to. They're so undisciplined offensively though and it's an every night issue. Russ and Melo should simply be smarter at this point in their careers.

Definitely in a far better place than last year, all the role players just happened to play like **** in the 1st half. Somebody should hopefully contribute in the 2nd and they'll go on an easy run. Curry is poised for another huge night if somebody else can get going and Dray is playing fine.
