[str8line]

Did exum ever have 40 pts in an entire month? I’m dead serious.

LEAVE DANTE ALONE!!!

Clarkson is just a walking bucket. Unbelievable.

Leads the league in scoring if given the keys to the car

Every single player this year is more aggressive. Giving Favors the credit is a large stretch.

You are both right and wrong. Bradley's only consistent positive attribute was rebounding. Favors is better, but everyone is just playing so much better, more together, and more aggressively. It does not look like the same team.

I'm so confused by the Sixers' build. Both Embiid and Simmons would do well to be the interior gravity in a spread offense. If they traded Simmons for Harden, I think we'd see both Embiid and Simmons look better than they do right now (which is saying a lot for Embiid).

I think they would have done that gladly if Houston's owner had agreed to it. Although I think Harden would have treated him like Clint Capela.

Because Favors is blocking out. For some reason this has become some lost art.

so 5.5 rebounds in what .. 16 mins per game or whatever is bad ?? lol

 

[str8line]

Simmons is averaging a career low 14 ppg this year, hard to believe right?

That ****er needs to give Don his trophy.

10-0 run in under 1:30

I think the jazz are undefeated when they have a 10-0 run

Yo, I ****ing LOVE this team. Brings a tear to my eye for real. You really feel the love they have for each other and for the game.

The chemistry is legit.

 

[fishonjazz]

I'm still shocked when bogey misses an open three but it's happening too often.

Never.

Every Jazz player had a + in the box score. That is a solid effort.

 

[fishonjazz]

I really want to see clarkson with 40. That'd make me happy.

Boom wish granted

So what does everyone think of the Gobert on Simmons strategy? Gobert had 2 rebounds in the first half so seems to to have put him out of position

Think nothing of it

I agree, but not having the big man move our scrub backup out of the box to grab the rebound helps immensely. I still have nightmares of Bradley not boxing out, standing on his tippy toes, and trying to tip the ball to himself.

 

[fishonjazz]

Gobert leaves the game, Sixers immediately score on point blank layups on four straight possessions.

Probably my number 1 pet peeves is people who don't see gobert out there getting it done. I hate trying to explain/defend goberts value to dummies

Stephen Curry 2015 MVP season:

23.8 PPG, 7.7 APG, 4.3 RPG

Donovan Mitchell 2021 season:

24.2 PPG, 5.1 APG, 4.3 RPG

Tell me why Mitchell isn’t at least in the MVP conversation? Curry got 100/130 1st place votes that year.

What were their efficiency like?

Favors is averaging 5 rebounds a game. 5. 5 rebounds. 5 rebounds.
The reason is Jingles, Mitchell, Rudy and Royce are all averaging higher numbers.

Favors box out. Team get rebound.

 

[LogGrad98]

Wow huge shot by Royce. Must be his first 3 in a while. Lol he was thanking the heavens instead of his usual celebration after that one.

He missed 10 in a row before hitting those 3 tonight.

 

[fishonjazz]

I actually really like Thurl as an announcer.

He is fantastic. Way better than harp

I can't decide if I like the "Flamethrower" or "Cheat Code" nickname better for Clarkson. Both are a perfect fit.

Flamethrower. **** outta here with anything else.
