sdrawkcab321 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Kevin love has been great this year. This is the role he should have had years ago. He was good last year in it and he’s good now. Let him feast on 2nd stringers. He’s instant offense and rebounding when he ones in. I hope we resign him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been a Cedi fan for a long time. Still hate Ty lue for not using him in 2018. He’s in his ideal role now. Limited dribbling. Just catch and shoot and drive to the basket. Which he’s improved on. He’s in a contract year so it’s always sketchy to see this kind of high level play but I hope we sign him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdrawkcab321 Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 about time. 0k0r0 isn’t an nba player. I actually think wade is one of those rare players who fits better with the starters than the bench because of how many open shots he’ll get.

candyman93 Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Really fantastic game from our bigs. Banchero is not going to do well in playoff basketball if refs decide to call fouls. He keeps driving his shoulder into guys in order to score. That only works in the regular season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdrawkcab321 Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Wade should start when garland comes back. Just fit so well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 (edited) Ben Simmons is done He won’t shoot at all and had a season high 7 points. He keeps fouling out and Luka dropped 41 on them. Also, Luka = Lebron Edited October 28, 2022 by candyman93 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like, did he regress as a player or did the league just figure him out and he couldn’t adjust or what? And while I realize not everyone can become a great shooter, it’s hard to believe with the level of athleticism these guys have paired with the coaching and time to practice that’s available to them they can’t at least learn to make open jumpers. With Simmons it seems to be largely mental, but good grief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not like he’s some fat oaf who can barely tie his shoes, he should be able to learn to shoot reasonably well. At least well enough to not be a liability. But yeah, I agree, it’s got to be a mental issue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roger murdock Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 I actually learned rules about the NBA from watching LeBron guard Ben Simmons Sixers were running 5-out and LeBron was guarding Simmons. Simmons is dribbling behind the 3 point line. LeBron stood at the rim for like 12 seconds and I couldnt understand why he wasnt getting called for a 3 second violation. Turns out if you are actively guarding the ball carrier you can sit in the paint as long as you want. And even though LeBron was 20 feet away from Ben it counted as actively guarding. Hilarious. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s how teams use to guard Tony Allen. They’d put their big on him and they'd just leave him alone at the 3 point line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say picks 4-10 were toss ups and i believe no one picked in that area has turned into anything all that great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
