The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

[LogGrad98]

Was last night Embiid first game back?

Put up 37 points (54.5% from the field, 44.4% from three, 90% from the line), 11 rebounds, 8 assists, and 2 blocks.

He is averaging 35 points per game this season. This is another guy that some jazz fans wouldn't want on the jazz.

The only hesitation I have is the injury history. It'd be tough to break the bank for the guy to see him play half the games and miss key points or play at half strength in the playoffs.

Embiid has played 4 games since returning.

Hadn't looked at a sixers box score in a while. Thanks for the info

And his age (30)
But I mean you have to take risks. We are the jazz. I would love it if we could just look at the top 10 guys in the league and just be like, let's take jokic and SGA to pair up with Lauri, but we can't.

There are a number of guys i would rather have than Embiid. But if we can't get any of those guys i would "settle" for the reigning league MVP Even with those valid concerns.

He's over 30 and has significant injury history while he puts his body on the line to win a ring because he knows he doesnt have much left at a high level.

I don't like Kyrie, but he is way too low on that list

Exactly.
I take a top 5 player on the jazz even with the risks we both mentioned. I would much prefer that we could just pick SGA and jokic to join the jazz though.

Celtics/Bucks combined for a total of two free throws yesterday. Celts first ever to not shoot a free throw. That's some crazy ****. They just going through the motions.

Well when everyone just jacks 3's off the dribble with no one around it's hard to foul anyone.

Sixers fans think Daryl Morey is going to try to trade for Mitchell.

Which would be hilarious after all the **** they talked about him during the ROY fiasco

Who doesn't want him on the Jazz? I've never seen anyone even hint at this.

Anthony Edwards at #14 of any list of best players in the NBA is laughable.

Yep. At worst I think he should be 8 behind Tatum.

This is his first year making the playoffs outright and it's because Gobert

True, and to that end I think Rudy should be on that list. Nobody can convince me he impacts winning less than Brandon Ingram.

I'd still have Edwards above Brunson, AD, and Booker at minimum.

I'd still have AD and Book higher

Playing with Rudy is a sure fire way to improve your individual ranking. Whatever credit Rudy gets for Rudy, it’s going to be less than he deserves and it will go to another player on his team.

Trae definitely got plugs while he was out. They look good… no judgement.

Me. I don’t want Embiid.
