But Monty Williams.
He's averaging 15.5 ppg?
How about Rebounds? Blocks? Assists?
Don't count. All they Ayton fans understand is ppg.
No, they are all about IPPG

I know…. But I’m sure he’ll end up missing just enough games to save Jeremy’s skin. Isn’t he due for another suspension? I feel like sending him to Portland was like sending a crack head to work for the saklers.

So weird. I recorded the Heat at Celtics game yesterday. I'm watching it today and it sounds like Doris Burke doing all the play by play and color. I thought maybe they were having mic issues. I listened for a loooooonnnng time until I finally figured out it was another woman doing play by play who's voice was almost indistinguishable from Burke's. You can't have play by play and color commentary with two people with same sounding voices. It was SO confusing.

Good for Bizzy. He'll give them some good minutes and energy. Wish we could have brought him back but I think our current big man rotation is better.

I will say, I do think we are missing that need to hold a lead in a defensive battle 3rd big.

If we’re up 1 and on defense with 20 seconds left, who is at the 5? I think it might be Durant and I don’t love that. We’re going to be susceptible at the rim. Maybe it’s Eubanks or Metu but I’m confident in them.

Exactly my tought since day one, I suppose they were looking for shooting from man 1 to 15 of the team, but Bol Bol is a luxury and having Biz peacefully waiting for his chance and the making things happen, is not. We could have used him on the Lakers’ game for sure.

100%… I get why they rolled the dice with bol but with bizzy you at least knew what you were getting when you needed him.

Somebody needs to talk to Frank about sample size.

Sample size or not, Maxey is having a fantastic start to the season, and I think his point is the Sixers aren't going to miss James Harden.

Maxey is a stud. He was really efficient last year too, big fan.
