    Embiid and Simmons are the real deal. Sixers are going to be legit if they can keep their health.

    Embiid's footwork is spectacular. Scary. 44 on 19 shots

    Went to Knicks Jazz tonight. Jazz were hitting threes like crazy in the first half and Donovan Mitchell looked like an All Star. Yet I was never worried. Jazz cooled off and Hardaway/KP/Ntilinkia came up big. Sitting near me: Chris Rock, Evander Holyfield, John McEnroe, and Spike Lee (of course).

    Oh and I looked at Holyfield's ears. They both looked good.

    Embiid straight shit on the Lakers with those Hakeem-esque post moves. THAT guy is a future MVP.

    Yeah, TV showed them and Walt Frazier said, "Evander the Commander." They showed a clip of the young male star from Hunger Games, then showed the actor in the stands. I don't know his name. In the oversight of the night, they didn't mention you. The Director should be reassigned to the Delaware 87er telecasts.

    I take back what I said yesterday, Embiid is going to be legit too (if he can stay fit).

    I like Convington a lot. He's been back to his best from the 3-point range this season (actually he is above his best from before) and is still a great defender. They got some good depth with Saric, Holmes and McConnell. I wonder if they are going to be a play in free agency next year, they will have space for one max player and maybe some more, provided Covington doesn't get anything crazy. Could Paul George consider them?

    He should. I'd want to see this starting lineup

    Simmons
    George
    Covington
    Saric
    Embiid

    Holy length.

    I really really hope PG13 leaves oklahoma after this Season and goes back to the east. This would be good for Portland because okc would lose his 2nd best player and the West would be a little bit easyier. Let's hope okc sucks badly this Season.
