He had an issue a few times this season… and played through it or would sit out for 1 game 🤷🏻‍♀️ I have him in fantasy bball and he’s been super reliable. So that is what is making me pretty skeptical about the amount of time he sat out lol. I could be wrong though.

Well he’s done it before where he tries to do extra stuff to force himself out of a franchise so it wouldn’t be surprising

Who are some of the most exciting role players in the league this year? My personal favourite is Gary Payton II, I just love the energy he brings and his awareness/positioning. Just want to know if there are any players you all think should get more appreciation.

Gary is so great! Definitely underrated. His defensive presence is wild.

I think the Sixers got the better end of the trade for this season. They added an all-NBA SG for a guy who refused to play a game for them and some quality players. I think Harden is at a stage in his career where he really wants to win.

He fouled out both the Knick’s center

#

The Sixers winning their last two games is just the icing on the cake. What's more important is how quickly and seamlessly Harden has integrated into Philly's offense. Flawless.

#

Philly being able to keep Thybulle was so huge because he's an elite defender and can have a huge impact on games without really touching the ball much. He's perfect piece with Embiid and Harden.

The lineup with Harden, Maxey, Thybulle, Harris, and Embiid is something fierce.

I think Dray makes a massive difference. You saw how Steph can play with screeners around him - look at the All Star game. He finds open players. Both Steph and Klay will be better with Dray in the lineup. I still think he's one of the most underrated players in the league.

On a different note, I watched Damian Lillard on Draymond Green's show a few days ago. He essentially said it doesn't make sense for him to come back this season because the team is trying to tank.

Lillard said during the Olympics, everyone on the team was telling him to just get the surgery. He still tried to play through it. He said on the first day of camp, he couldn't really even move. He still tried to fight, but eventually he was done.

Maybe the Blazers throw their hat in the ring and try to get a guy like Deandre Ayton.

The KD Warriors stopper

Oh you think them adding Kawhi would make them unstoppable?

yes

static kelp

Ah I see

#

Yeah that would be a insane lineup offensively and defensively

wind light
cedar lion
#

Lmao

static kelp
#

Do you think Bronny will go higher in the draft because of Bron saying that?

wind light
#

I think he will

#

But it also probably depends on how well LeBron plays, on top of Bronny's play

static kelp
#

Yeah that’s true

#

I can’t wait for the rumors for who would take Bronny start to appear

wind light
#

Like, if LeBron isn't good anymore, and Bronny's average, I wouldn't go out of my way to get Bronny

with Westbrick?

He got 7 assist he just need to pass for now on

that Westbrook would help the Lakers immensely

That’s his only way tbh

Lakers aren't nothing without AD on the floor

Suck any other way @wind light

exactly my thoughts, sadly, as he's extremely athletic and can be so good cutting

They have beautiful ball movement but no shot

It’s sad to say

I’m hearing a Laker’s comeback is boiling? 👀

Possible

They can’t seem to stop the inside game

As long as Westbrook makes plays

Westbrick need to be that Aggressive PG and attack that paint

That shot from Lebron tho 🔥🔥🔥

Does Westbrick want to win a chip or does he just want to have the best stats? This is a mystery

what's it going to take for Westbrook to change his game?

A new team maybe?

or getting beaten up by his teammates

He needs a new environment

I’m tired 😴 have a great night sleep guys

static kelp
#

You too!

wind light
#

So he should focus on improving his game and gelling with the Lakers instead of just talking

static kelp
#

I think he just needs to focus on playing to his strengths more

#

Rather than trying to iron out his weaknesses

wind light
#

he can do both

static kelp
#

True, I feel like if the Lakers want more production out of him he needs to just contribute in ways that he can already contribute in

wind light
#

I was thinking of how Giannis worked on his weaknesses, like free throws and 3s

static kelp
#

Hm

#

I think with Giannis he was such a good finisher and knew how to get to the basket that he just kept doing that and adapted with how the defenses would try and stop him

civic tree
static kelp
#

But Giannis has also worked on his 3s

wind light
#

exactly, dud eknew he had to do more than just finish, and he improved his weaknesses

# static kelp Simons is the face of the future for Portland

He's not. Simons has to produce at a high level when Lillard comes back and the steaks are way higher. I love Simons, but he has a green light right now that he won't have next season. To his credit, he's taking advantage of the situation and producing.

I agree with Evan Mobley and Scottie Barnes being #1 and #2, respectively. They're both having great rookie seasons and contributing a great deal to their teams success. Cade Cunningham is also have a great rookie campaign; however, his team is unfortunately fighting for a top 3 draft pick. Not Cade's fault the Pistons aren't very good, but if all the players are close, winning should be rewarded.

Nikola Jokic no longer has the highest PER season of all time. It’s now Giannis.
