Which kinda highlights how unimportant block are. Forcing guys into awkward or uncomfortable shots is more important and Embiid was always great at that when he could move.

I think having atleast 1 or 2 shotblockers are important. It seems like everytime we get a block or deflection it goes to the other team. When you can not secure the ball or rebound after a stop it kind of defeats the purpose.

McCain is upgraded to probable for the next game. Defense is optional, Offense is mandatory.
They say an analytics man doesn't have a heart, but I ran the numbers and nothing can be further from the truth - Sam Hinkie probably

Nice! Hard to believe that McCain is going to come back before Part Time Paul does, but I'll take it. Any news on PG? Or is he waiting for his next non basketball related injury to occur to keep him from suiting up for us? Also, how's Oubre?

Oubre wasn't on the injury report. He was even available at the end of the last game but wasn't needed. Also, he said in the post game he would be playing tomorrow.

Only thing somewhat concerning is that the ankle he tweaked was the same one he tweaked a couple weeks ago or something along those lines.

Report a few days ago was that he's supposed to come back early November so maybe later this week or next week

Anyone atleast slightly concerned about the shot distribution once everyone is back and Embiids minute retriction is gone?
