Let’s see. He went from being a lazy and disinterested defender in college (because he didn’t care and he was going first anyway) to one of the best defenders at his position in the league his rookie year. Sounds uncoachable to me! You act like switching shooting hands is an easy transition that he should have made by…

It’s okay to be excited about one of the most exciting young teams in the league. No one is saying the sixers are competing for the championship this year, but they have two of the best young talents in the game, another high draft picK coming their way (not talking about Fultz, which should also be covered because it…

Having a reputation of not being particularly coachable was mostly a lazy narrative because his year at college was a formality and he has no interest in playing defense because he was the number one pick already. He has already shed that label, if you watched the sixers you would know this. He is already literally…

Username checks out.

Who woulda thunk that Tatums otherworldly efficiency from deep wouldn’t sustain itself for an entire season? I’m honestly more surprised it took this long.

I think he has 5+ years left in him, albeit with declining production, so yes, I do.

Sports are often used as an escape from reality. Most of the nation is not happy with reality. Therefore we make sports more important to try to give ourselves some meaning. It’s not really a good or bad thing in and of itself, but it can be a signal that other things are bad.

No it’s much worse. His real name is Robby.

He went one step further and nicknamed himself the process. Partly as an ode to hinkie because he believed in him when others did not and embiid feels like he owes him. He even said he thought him not playing for two years was part of what lost hinkie his job (the sixers wouldn’t have been quite as bad and the…

Curry is a douche. That is all.

Do you really think the chance of giving your opponent an easy shot at a 50 yard field goal to end the game before you get the ball back should not be part of the decision making process that leads to trying for an onside kick with two timeouts and the two minute warning? You have a higher chance of forcing a three…

I think it’d be a little strange to hear someone argue that Chris Paul is as good as magic. Kidd you can argue. Stockton you can maybe argue. Oscar, no. He’s one of the best ever, but not arguably as good as any point guard ever.

I wonder which one will still get talked about years from now.

My bad, the coaches* are entirely responsible for that loss. The onside kick cost them over time. A playaction pass on 4th and a foot when Big Ben is something like 17 of his last 18 from that distance is decidedly dumb.

I think a receiver that big and strong manages to get to the sideline if you let him come down with two feet before you make contact. All he had to do is slam the ball out of bounds before he hits the ground.

You lost me at no reason to not go for the onside kick. That is absolutely false. Kickoffs happen from your own 35. Ten yards is the 45. That means the team is across the 50. If I start from the 45 and gain 8-9 yards, which the jags did, that makes it about a 52 yard field goal. That is within field goal range. That…

They are 1 game below .500 with probably the hardest schedule anyone has played so far in the NBA. Their schedule gets a lot easier down the stretch and for a team still learning how to play together, with a rookie point guard who wasn’t even a point guard in college, I’d say they’re in a pretty good spot. The goal…

I actually disagree. Letting him catch it is not the obvious correct play that people are making it out to be. It’s the safe play. That sets up a 50 yard field goal in a dome. The goal should be to cause an incompletion, which he was trying to do.

Throwing a deep pass on a 4th and a foot with one of if not the best rb on the game and a giant qb who can get it with a sneak for one.

And a 50 yard field goal for the win in a dome. The defender wanted to cause an incompletion.
