Re: Saturday 11/8 NBA Game Thread
Embiid giving me false hopes. Playing against Toronto team with no center tonight. Puts up 29/5/4 in 25 min and actually useful tonight. Almost like Chris webbers final semi productive year with the sixers where cwebb put up 20/10 numbers but clearly not the same player on a bad knee. These guys are so talented they can still fill a box score but watching them play is painful cause u can see the lack of mobility and not a lot of lift in the legs for layups that get blocked by Scottie Barnes

Referees literally just erased two points from the Bulls?

Lakers lose the trap game everyone saw coming. Don't ever change NBA.

This is actually the second time they've been wrong about a shot clock violation due to the ball hitting the rim. I don't know what they're looking at but this is just bad.

Re: Saturday 11/8 NBA Game Thread
See, that's when a coach has to put his foot down. Just refuse to start the game, until the refs do their damn job. Those two points should have counted for the Bulls, period.
NBA refs are absolutely garbage.

Biid doesn’t play b2bs, right? Asking because with Stewart likely out, we could use the help tomorrow.

Re: Saturday 11/8 NBA Game Thread
The Lakers have to make a trade before the deadline for some defensive players. Their defense is not at the level it needs to be contenders.

No back to backs. At least not yet.

I thought he was never doing back to backs ever again? Or was that just last year?

Does anyone think Patrick Williams will ever turn the corner into a competent NBA player?

Losing faith myself. He needs the Kyle Korver restriction where he's not allowed to dribble the ball.

Re: Saturday 11/8 NBA Game Thread
8 Spurs in double figures tonight without Olynyk, Kornet and Harper. Against the Pelicans yeah, but very good sign.
