The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

[Blue Mamba]

Devin Booker has a really nice looking jumper

 

[Benny Hinn]

What is Book whining about now?

I've heard the argument that if Embiid is not 100% it would be better for the 76ers to play without him because the offense works better and they can guard the perimeter

I just can't get down with not using an MVP level player who can impact both ends like that

They obviously need to play him. But the scheme needs to change. Their offense is just VERY slow and predictable when he’s out there.

Jim played like trash, but he also has to adjust his game a ton with Embiid out there in their current scheme. They just don’t play as freely as a team.

 

[Blue Mamba]

I think the key to Al Horford’s good playoff games is someone has to talk trash about him

 

[Quincy McCall]

Awful stinker at the worse time for Harden

Not sure there's an adjustment 6ers can make to save them

Yep. Only one guy constantly gets action with Embiid.

Only reason it’s not 3-0 is because of Harden, they’re outmanned.

MPJ da hell

 

[Maximus Meridius]

3/23 is crazy. He just keep building on his great playoff resume.

 

[pmatic]

MPJ's jumper is so pretty.

For Embiid’s health sake, he has to stop falling on the ground so much. No basketball player falls as much as he does

Falling is actually a tactic to avoid injury. Falling avoids needing to use your legs and knees to absorb the impact.

Harden a career choke artist, his supporters can't use that weak axx tired legs excuse they would use whenever he choked on Houston. I genuinely feel bad for Embiid man has only ever had legitimate help once(Butler) and Philly chose Tobias Harris over him

 

[amitt5504]

As bad as Harden was, Maxey and Tobias were worse. Completely useless.

If any of the 3 players had a semi decent game, this would have been a much closer game.

Tobias doesn’t get shots if Jo is playing. Maxey has always played bad against Boston

 

[jpzx]

Booker should have to ref games like that new rule in New Jersey little league baseball, where if parents heckle the umpire beyond reason they have to ump 3 little league games before they can return as a spectator

 

[Mister Meaner]

Harden not slick.

He gets to go home and save his playoff reputation from any further damage.

Chess, not checkers.

 

[finessence]

Durant so insecure

Jimmy man…my heart still aches. It was so obvious that he was our best player and we let him walk for nothing.

 

[toneboi76]

KD just may not be that guy anymore

I still have no idea what hall were thinking with that move

 

[jpzx]

If Booker doesn’t look at the ref after a shot drink, you’ll have a sober Cinco de Mayo

 

[B Sox]

Book shotmaking absurd.
