Kip Smithers Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Laughable when people thought Harden that Harden couldn’t sacrifice and just jack up shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDez Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Embiid is the best traditional big since prime Duncan. His flailing is tough to watch but he’s expanded his game each year it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Simmons as a rich man’s Draymond+ is his optimal role, facilitating on offense and locking it down on D. Don't think so, you ain't a great option if you're not spacing the floor in the playoffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I admire about him is that he legit plays in the NBA like it's a pickup game, the lights aren't too bright for him, and he's just having fun with it. I'd say the two of the biggest differences and why he's better than Lonzo: 1.) As mentioned above he plays the game loose while Lonzo to me has always played kinda scared and looked stiff & 2.) Lonzo came in with such huge expectations because of how much ish his dad was talking and going to LA while LaMelo went to a pretty crap franchise while his dad was banned from speaking in the media. I honestly think Lonzo's struggles early hurt his mentality a lot especially because they were magnified by the fact he was playing for the Lakers and his dad had created so much hype around him. I was team Jazz before this. Now? Lakers in 4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the Hornets man glad to see Gordon Hayward balling for you guys, he was my favorite player when he played with Utah. I remember Charlotte trying to pry him away from us with a massive deal when he was a RFA but we matched it. It does sting a little though because if he would've stayed with us and remained healthy, Mitchell/Hayward/Gobert would've been a really nice trio.

candyman93 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 The Celtics built their team the right way. It’s just not enough. They need to build a new big 3 the same they did in 08. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy Brown Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 there's really no simple answer as to why the celtics are mediocre right now. gonna assume stevens is mostly to blame currently, tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the guy who does all the little things. He is the heart and soul of the team. Watching today's game, its clear they are missing it. His return would improve the team, but they are still a major piece away from being a top 3 team in the league. Kemba is a role player at this point in his career. If they can make a move and keep Kemba, Smart, Brown, and Tatum then they could make the leap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
