2022/23 NBA REGULAR SEASON THREAD "TANKING FOR WEMBANYAMA"

early season tatum watch

Between that floater and getting low to draw fouls, we've already gotten some glimpses of the things Tatum worked on this summer.

A couple of years ago, Jayson Tatum floaters were either left a foot short and he put way too much on them, that they had no chance.

You can see he's worked on that and getting low and going through guys when he drives.

There's another leap coming.

harden looks good for a time in the season when he usually looks absolutely terrible

internet shamed him into getting in shape

the computer is such a powerful tool in society

ive been saying that

Harden's slick bounce passes are awesome

Tatum is unreal

great game

james harden throwing up multiple air balls. allah is great.

he tried to recreate the wesley johnson play on marcus

marcus flopping so hard that he looked like a stunt man getting ejected from a car crash and nearly ending up getting plastered all over the internet as having his ankles epically broken but harden shooting the ball off the bottom of the backboard is just a perfect sequence of events in my book. i really can’t ask for anything more.

lol

marcus and embiid flop off lmao

theyre in midseason form

A pair of physical comedians out there.

it's truly some buster keaton shit

embiid is really the long lost fourth stooge

love all this running from the celtics love the fast break baby

this game is great, everyone is bringing it

This is so fun

do you think embiid or harden know maxey is on the team

right?

ah yes the nba is back and you know what that means, that's right it's time to find out jon hamm does insurance commercials now

im thinking the sixers defense might not be totally "top notch"

they’re def testing the limit at which you can have two F defenders at guard and still be great. but most teams don’t have tatum and brown putting up 60+ points

classic embiid front running performance tonight huffing and puffing to the crowd in the first half and then packing his shit and going home once the sixers got down 10

tough spot to draw embiid lol

I just scanned game logs really quickly so I apologize if I'm wrong, but I believe this is Noah Vonleh's first game with at least 20 minutes played since Dec. 28, 2019.

I love him but you're not wrong.

it's truly one of my favorite recurring nba bits

he gets tired

vewy sweepy

ty ty

jays go for 70 very nice

they were on a complete tear

interesting thybulle didnt see the court under those circumstances

i even like the minutes distribution for a marquee game, good stuff from mazzulla

thybulle stinks

he is bad but man do they have anyone who can guard the perimeter

muting this ring ceremony whos got time for it zaza pachulia things of that nature

i will say… mazzulla threw an all bench line up out there in the third quarter and only got spared almost squandering the lead by grant williams throwing in a blindfolded three pointer. at least one jay should be on the floor every minute against real teams

i enjoyed seeing mareese speights and shaun livingston xp

brogdon should be able to handle being the guy with bench units but idk its his first game with the team

he is bad but man do they have anyone who can guard the perimeter

i do like these warm up shirts that look exactly like pajamas but why no matching pants

lol steph just standing there screaming cute

xp they're going to have to have all-bench units at some point, best to start figuring it out now

both Steph and LeBron both rocking the long beard look.

That would be both of them lol

i listened to a billion podcasts this summer talking about how much the sixers upgraded their roster and i still feel like they have a critical lack of shooting on the wing

doug mcdermott and/or josh richardson are very available

i relish sixers pain but putting josh richardson back on that team feels like a level of cruelty even i wouldn’t stoop to
