You have to give the Sixers players some credit though for mostly enacting their defensive gameplan of “never let Reddick switch onto people” since the playoffs began.

Jesus Christ, we’re not only all lawyers, we’re reliving the goddamn LSAT.

“Lois, a Khalil Mack is a Khalil Mack, but Clelin Ferrel could be anything! He could even be a Khalil Mack, and you know much we’ve wanted one of those!”

Interesting factoid: Two bridge officers on Star Trek: Discovery are named Rhys and Bryce.

I can’t wait ‘til MLB implements a dinger clock to shave another 1.4 seconds off a 3.5 hour game.

Nah he’s fine

I was disappointed that we actually had Jorah Mormont and Lyanna Mormont in one place, in one episode and we got... nothing. Come on! Are you telling me Lyanna doesn’t have any snide, cutting remark for the long-lost disgraced cousin that she’s never known? Does she not feel the need to smack him around a little and…

Security cameras catch Fallon walking into his dressing room, peeling off his face to reveal Conan O’Brien, and quietly saying ‘a boy made jokes again tonight’...

Replace “player” with “awesome space monster” and it’s a much better quote.

Kind of a flop, but also kind of a controlled fall? Like yes it looks like he “put himself down” after the push, but isn’t that also the safest way to handle being pushed in the back if you are 7 feet tall instead of stumbling around like a gazelle and breaking something? 

If you had to play with a full season with Andrew Wiggins and see his talentless ass get paid more than you, you’d become a spiteful asshole too. This is EXACTLY what happened to Jimmy Butler.

Counterpoint: No you don’t.

Smart is definitely big enough to knock him to the floor if he caught him unsuspecting/off balance but you never know with Embiid. He’s devilishly sharp. I like how he’s injected so much life in this rivalry AND in the conference overall. East playoffs could be fire in that 2nd round.

I mean, yeah, basically.

1) The playoffs are going to be incredible. I just hope everyone stays healthy

Yeah, I remember reading somewhere that Embiid’s true height is closer to 7-foot-3, and there is no way in hell he weighs less than 300 pounds right now. I think even at his best playing weight he’s probably around 270.

The Sixers went on to BEAT THE FUCKING CELTICS FUCKING FINALLY.

Flagrant 2 all day, but that’s a monster flop from Embiid right? Anyway, here’s what I found in my extensive research for this comment...Marcus Smart is listed at 6'4" 225 lbs., which I think I believe. Embiid is listed at 7' flat, 249 lbs., which...no fuckin’ way on earth.

Villanova can definitely lose this game, they have been stringing along all season, never quite getting over the line of gelling into what they’d like by this time of year. That said, they just went through and won the Big East regular season title and tournament. It’s a down year for the Big East, no doubt, but the…
