Might be a player to watch this year

🎶does philly have anyone who knows how to score in the nba🎶

Joel Embiid post-ups vs Boston, via @SecondSpectrum: 0.533 points per play when Embiid shots, or teammate one pass away does; 0.66 points per possession on all trips featuring an Embiid post-up. A lot of 3-0 lies there.

dante exum has really weird body language

philly -6.5 for game 4, theyve been favored every game this series lol

the extent to which the celtics have exposed philly shd maybe be considered a crime https://www.theringer.com/nba/2018/5/7/17326080/brad-stevens-celtics-sixers

i mean doing this

The Sixers are allowing a dismal 110.1 points per 100 possessions against the Celtics, a far cry from the 102.0 (third best in the NBA) their defense allowed during the regular season.

with the minimal offensive talent the celtics are currently running out is just rude

does anyone subscribe tot his website plz give me the article https://cleaningtheglass.com/cracking-the-shell

A thread of Chinese internet nicknames for NBA players.

China is crazy for the NBA, but official sources use boring phonetic transcriptions, failing to take advantage of Chinese characters having both sound and meaning. Chinese netizens have "improved" on these official names.

The Elementary School Student

lol at O'Fat

those nicknames need to be polled. whenever he finiishes

Might need a bracket

robert covington is melting; it's beautiful

More McConnell plz.

My kingdom for a better haircut for Saric.

his hair to facial combo is easily the worst in the league.

speaking of, i hope taytum goes full-on boots riley with his sideburns.

the raptors essentially traded demarre carroll, cory joseph and a first round pick to get CJ miles. miles is pretty good on offense but he’s getting roasted on defense all series and hasn’t seemed to make the raptors any better in this specific match up

lebron james

raps gonna have to face the music and start over, this series has been an unbelievable embarrassment

some good raptors future discussion at the end of the new lowe/arnovitz podcast. i think if lebron goes to the west they could reasonably bring this team more or less back but if lebron stays in the east there's no way you could really justify bringing it all back

i wonder what you could really get for lowry and derozan on longterm maxes tho
