    If you really thought a 23 year old Nurk was going to average 20/10 on this team, then I have a timeshare in puerto rico to sell you.

    I don't know how Nurk will do against Embiid. I do envision Nurk possibly getting a Tech if Embiid looks to clown him like he has other Centers.
    But and knock on wood because I've said something like this before only to look like a fool...
    Nards might be the guy who guards Embiid. I mean he spent the summer working with him, and apparently Nards 'got confident' by doing so.
    We'll see I suppose.

    Damn good thing MEM was without Conley, huh? 11 team assists! 39% shooting! What a total shit show. That's a loss against any team at full strength. Not looking good for the PHI game...

    Gotta trade Aminu+Davis. Vonleh is the present, and Collins/Biggie are the future (on cheap contracts). If we can somehow trade Aminu+Davis for a SF that would be ideal!

    Meyers Leonard just had two really good games in a row. I especially like the way he's being physical and boxing out. Even when he's not getting the rebound his box outs the last two games have allowed his teammates to get them.

    Turner was also a team high +16 despite shooting 0 for 6. Weird.

    Is the cake finally baked? I can't tell because those basketballs look pretty deflated...

    Yes he did. Then for the next 12 minutes after his tantrum, the refs coddled the shit out of him and let him get away with murder. Vet move I guess getting the tech. Fucking NBA refs.

    Yeah but I think to get a good young SF we will have to give up a good young player to get him. And to me Biggie is the one...along with a Harkless or Aminu or Le0nard. Harkless is my first choice.

    I'd like to keep Harkless because he can be good...he just hasn't been this season. I'm fine trading Biggie (don't want to, but would be willing to in the right deal). Neither Ed nor Aminu are good enough to have big roles on contenders...but I'm hopeful an underperforming contender will disagree with that assessment!

    It's like the mental and reactionary parts of the game finally clicked. He must have balled a lot over the summer.

    Was that the one where Gasol elbowed him super hard in the ribs then did the cross thing and acted like it was a bad call? Fuck that guy.
