Embiid's a gamer. He knows how to entertain.

I was surprised PatBev didn't get tossed for the camera stunt because that's really showing up the refs.

Refs should also give players some leeway when they clearly miss a call though

It was a great game, Embiid dominated in the 2nd half and putting PJ on Jokic really flustered him.
Oh...
Didn't know PJ was still making these kinda impacts :twisted:

The problem was the all-nba player and their big acquisition weren’t playing well together. Think it’ll be tough to reincorporate KAT. Also, just like everyone else, they are a 2-3 game losing streak away from being 11th

Being in 5th just means you're mediocre, just like us. They could easily drop into the play-in over the course of a single week, just like you said. Nothing to crow about.

Plumlee is a solid bench Center for a good team. Who the hell is giving up a first round pick for him?

3 2nds…I don’t think Rui is worth that…especially since you’d have to pay him in a couple months
I think Rui's upcoming free agency is non-issue. He is restricted, and no one is offering him big money.

Giving up 3 2nd rounders is steep, but that is mainly because Kendrick Nunn has ZERO trade value, other than being an expiring contract.

We won both Oubre trades…I’d say trading cash for Landale and Aaron holiday are wins as well, though on a much smaller scale
Good points.

Really wish that rumored Sabonis Ayton trade came to fruition.
Yeah, people here underrated Sabonis. I probably did too, even though I've always been a fan. It's insane that the Suns are paying max money for Ayton and the Kings have Sabonis making $18.5 million.

You can’t just isolate one part of it…it’s not making this specific trade due to tax implications. Is Rui worth it? Yes he’s better than what we’re getting from Jae, but in that case why haven’t we just traded him for Grayson Allen who’d give us more than Jae.
Because having Grayson Allen is worse than just having Jae sit at home.

He's just a good basketball player, that's my favorite thing about him, he has a super high IQ I can live with lackluster defense of you do so many other things at a high level.

While true, does it make much of a difference if that kind of deal is still on the table on Feb. 9th? I don't get the rush to make a marginal move especially considering the conference standings.

Either you read INF's post the wrong way or I did. I took it at face value.

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

If the Suns can’t get him, I’d be happy if Hornets can draft Gradey Dick and still rock the CLT jerseys next year. Warm my cold dead heart.

Lebron acted like it only happens to him. It happens league wide every night. Plays are missed everyday.
