Feet do not have to be set for a charge, you’re actually allowed to be moving laterally or backwards, it’s the torso that really matters. If he beat him to the spot with his torso before Durant’s shooting motion starts, it’s a charge. If not, it’s a block. The feet aren’t what matters, this is a common misconception.

Brad Lidge later pitched one of the greatest seasons of all time, going a flawless 48 for 48 in save opportunities for the regular season and playoffs combined (also 2-0 record), securing a World Series title for the Phillies.

Philly and Houston seem like the only real options. Houston has to lose to the Warriors, which will happen. They can move a couple pieces and and CP3 takes a pay cut it’s doable.

I’m genuinely shocked by the tone of articles and comments coming after this loss.

Ah, yes, this old gem of a take. Everyone who was ever on the court and Brett Brown was doing everything they could to win those games. They never lost on purpose.

Wait, what? Running the Process may have stymied the development of the Sixers young players? That makes absolutely no sense.

The Beach Boys because Pet Sounds is by far the greatest album ever made. Like other albums don’t even deserve to be compared to it.

If your Stones list doesn’t include a song from Exile throw it away.

Absolute garbage Stones picks. Beatles picks are meh. What are you listening to, 40 licks? Any list that doesn’t include at least one song from Exile should be burned immediately.

Lol at the Stones not being able to play multiple styles. The Stones did blues, early pop rock, heavy rock, psychedelic, and country as good as anyone. The problem is most people didn’t listen to their best work. They were also better lyricists than the Beatles, who were better songwriters. The most important Beatle…

Your reasoning basically says the Sixers don’t have a point guard because you want to call Simmons a forward. LeBron plays with a PG. He’s a point forward. Simmons does not. He is 100% the PG of the Sixers.

No. LeBron plays with a PG on the court with him. Simmons does not. Simmons is the PG. Simmons, Brett Brown, and every Sixers fan knows this. The NBA is flat out wrong in their categorization of him or the Sixers are the only team in the league without a PG.

The position which he plays*

That step back is literally unguardable for the man covering him. He covers too much ground. Your only hope is having someone else cheat off their man and block it from behind.

Playing Giannis at the 5 when Embiid is on the court is a recipe for disaster. You’d just have Embiid guard a less athletic player (preferably a not great shooter so he can cheat off and help on giannis drives) and Giannis would get cooked by Embiid. Great way to get your best player in foul trouble as Embiid is one…

Simmons is a god damn point guard and has been one all year. You’re either being lazy or purposefully denying evidence if you say otherwise.

He’s in the second tier with KAT and Boogie, who are also fatally flawed, but on the opposite side of the court.

They call it “culture,” and apparently it’s superior to The Process.

Masked Embiid is now known as “The Nightmare,” an ode to Hakeem, who he idolized and used to watch VHS tapes to study The Dreams moves.

Whiteside gets paid 25 million next year and has an option for 27 million the year after that.
