    I would agree if it’s towards someone else. It’s very appropriate for @invocux

    This is a language @invocux understands very well

    Far from it, trust me. I'm basically a blind man leading the blind at best. And leading is a stretch.

    Sengun needs to watch that tape of Embiid vs Wemby. Steady FT jumpers are the key.

    Alpi needs to work FTs, 3 pointers and defense this off season in that order. If next year he can get to 80 percent FTs, and keep improving 3pt percentage while becoming more consistent on D, watch out baby!

    Yup. FT jumpers. That's it.
    FT dunks could've been more efficient, but unfortunately Alpi is both unathletic and undersized.

    In Wemby's defense, he started defending Nicolas Batum after Embiid had 59 in 3q.

    That's not even basketball IQ...that's just instinct and innate talent.

    Turning a broken play into a highlight in a split second.

    Love the growing connection with Amen.

    There were and will be agenda-driven dudes bashing on Alp's defense tonight.

    I'm guessing that's why Anfernee Simons insistently refused Ayton to screen for him but asks for Jalen's matchup to screen instead in the last 10 minutes of the game.

    I mean you can fool casual dudes with your agenda-driven takes but just know that there are people who actually know basketball out there.
