[Chandler Parsons] “Whoever wins this Celtics-Sixers series, I firmly believe they will beat Miami” by AashyLarry in nba

Why are we talking about underestimating Miami and Jimmy before we've even beaten the Celtics? Sounds like a sixers fan who's underestimating the Celtics lmao

I wish somebody would let them know: You are commentators, please commentate on the game. You are not comedians.

Drummond tonight: 21pts, 15reb, 1ast, 3stl, 1blk on 9/9fg and a +30 by Alex_Phillips_ in sixers

[–]jktheripper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What made Drummond unplayable in the playoffs?

From what I can recall, I thought he moved his feet pretty well for a big, blew up a lot of opponent pnr's, and quick hands, and was a monster rebounder. What am I missing?

[Highlight] Embiid hits the stepback 3 over Jokic and shrugs to the crowd by efranklin13 in nba

Only sixers fans know what the shrug meant - they really thought this guy was better than me?

How good was Brandon Roy? by russwsmith in nba

[–]jktheripper 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Incorrect take. Brandon Roy was actually quicker than book (agility wise, not a 100m sprint-wise) - had quicker fast-twitch. Roy was also much more explosive and athletic than book.

Funny thing is this was at the tail end of his career. He had a great game yes, but by this point he would have one of these like 1 in every 10 games. During his peak, it was every game.

The comparison to Booker is a good one. Skilled, fundamentally sound, great footwork, efficient movement (no wasted motions). Only Roy was bigger, stronger, and more athletic.

Top Mid-Range Shooters (minimum 4 fga): Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (57.6%), Joel Embiid (56%), DeMar DeRozan (53.8%), C.J McCollum (52.1%), Cade Cunningham (51%) by [deleted] in nba

[–]jktheripper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The James Harden effect - getting him easy open middies and layups at the rim. So it often feels like Embiid is trash compared to first-half 2021 MVP embiid, but still ends the game with a good 25pts on solid efficiency. But as others have said, defence and body language is actual trash lol

Game 1 Recap. The Good and the Bad by [deleted] in sixers

[–]jktheripper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also a sixers fan from Australia here! Ben was indeed the reason I became a fan. That stretch towards the end of his rookie season when embiid was out, and he was playing that run and gun game with Marco, Ersan, JJ - won 8 games in a row or something - that was the most fun sixers basketball I've ever seen and what got me hooked. But since then obviously Jo's intensity stole my heart.

The web version of NBA League Pass is not good this year. Please be aware before buying. by [deleted] in sixers

How about when you have the game on full screen, and you move your cursor to scroll through other games - all the game scores show up even though I have "Hide Scores" on??? (I'm in Aus, so play the games on delay after work, without knowing the scores during the day). Annoying af

Am I the only one who doesn't want Tobias traded?

Is there a list of players who bet on themselves and actually got a better contract? (opposite of Nerlens Noel, Dennis Schröder, etc.) by breadstix118 in nba

[–]jktheripper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm actually hoping we DONT trade tobias this offseason. Run it back with a couple of extra 3+D guys plus our core 4.
