I would like to challenge this lol
Not hating but I struggle to see how Luka n Trae create more clear cut chances to score than CP3

Uncontested shots is the key here…Perhaps a lot of passes to open 3pt shooters who miss. I’d be curious who gets the most potential assists on rim attempts.

I guess he can just take turns isolating with Embiid

I heard one time at practice Harden shit on the basketball then stared down the team and yelled, "Who wants to touch the ball now?".

Celtics rogering the 76ers, 101-58, at the end of third period.
Philly starters collectively 9-38 from the field at this point ... that's 24%.

TNT must see TV! Seems Harden is already making an impact.
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

Games are always wacky around the trade deadline and right before the All-Star break. Of course it's never good to get smacked by 50 points, but I'd expect the Sixers to not get too worked up over the games Harden isn't playing in right now.

My buddy told me the Knicks were up 52-26 with 4:30 left in the 2nd quarter. And they still find a way to lose. Pretty pathetic.

I saw someone say Thibs should coach a new team every year. He gets the most out of his guys in year 1, but opposing teams figure him out and his players get tired of him. I recall Skiles having a similar reputation.

I remember Skiles saying "if you had one turn over, or one missed free throw, or one missed field goal, you could have done more to help your team win" and I thought, wow this guy won't last.

I think he needs to change his game. Try to play more like Duncan and less like Giannis.

Sometimes I begrudge our team for not being super athletic.
But in the long run, it’s better to be playing smart and calculated and not trying over exert yourself physically.
