NBA Season 2016-2017

Embiid is 4-for-4 from three.  Lol.  Kid is unreal.  20 points in 19 minutes.  Sixers only down 2 to the Cavs.

Massive block on LeBron. Would love to have seen Jaylen win ROY, but this kid has it sown up.

Embiid just one-upped Jaylen's big performance against the Cavs by putting up an even bigger performance against the Cavs.  They almost won that game too.  All that with both Embiid and Okafor on 24 minute restrictions.  Wow.

where can we talk about him now?

Kings down over 30 in Milwaukee. Gay is out injured for awhile. Things could get really ugly for them in this rough ten game schedule that they have coming up.

Cousins is clearly not enjoying himself either. Ask out, big boy!

They really need to trade Cousins this year.  They will get much less next season.

That's why they're the Kings.  Durant leaving a very good OKC team should have been the final kick in the tail to move Cousins.

Great game by. Embiid.  So far quite the talent.

Also check out the stat line by towns in Minnesota. I want to see these. Two play against one another.

I think both will end up better than Anthony Davis if they stay healthy.  Embiid seems to have a more advanced post game than Towns.

Yet another blow to the already hapless Pelicans: Lance Stephenson out indefinitely after groin injury that requires surgery.

When are they going to get their first win? Their remaining November games are @ GSW, @ SAC, @MIL, VS LAL, VS BOS, @ ORL, VS POR, VS CHA, @ ATL, VS MIN, @ POR, @ DAL, @LAL. Their best bets are @ SAC, VS LAL, @ORL, and VS MIN, though they're still probably not favored in any of those games.

We're going to have a top-5 player on a bottom-3 team in the league.

Looks like Pelicans is on their way to top 3 pick.

Believe it or not, the Pelicans have a chance to be real special in three or four seasons, so long as they don't botch the upcoming draft.
I like a core of Davis, Hield, Fultz/Dennis Smith jr./Giles

But it all depends on how patient AD is with the organization and his relationship with gm Demps.

I guess our loss is made worse by the fact that the Lakers also won...and they now have a better record than us?

Great matchup going on between Embiid and Gobert.

[jpotter33]

The way they're rotating Embiid and Okafor is working out great right now with them on minute restrictions, but it'll start being an issue when they're both playing full minutes since they're pretty much incompatible playing together.

There's just absolutely no room for Noel in there, let alone when Simmons comes back.

Indy getting thumped in Charlotte.

Think we had a bad first quarter yesterday? The Hornets have 40 points on 15-19 shooting and 4-5 from 3... And there's three minutes left to go lol

I thought Indy was overrated, but maaaannnnn they're struggling so far. At least we have a legitimate excuse of having several injuries.

Embiid is due for a dud.  He's been a top 10 player in per-minute production this season and is leading the league in three point percentage.

Whoa. Crazy. Charlotte is really good if their shot is falling. But wow. I was one of those who thought Indiana was gonna be elite this year. So far, looks like I'm wrong. Of course, it's still early, and just like it's important that we don't overreact to our struggles, we also can't overreact to their struggles either.

Embiid does at least one thing every game that is just special.  This play is the latest in a long list of examples of what kind of freak he can be long term  https://twitter.com/DColeSports/status/795805911956803584

He keeps making mistakes, getting fouls and turnovers, but every game he pulls something out of his butt that you're like, "A 7'2 dude shouldn't be able to do that."

Also love the old school low post moves.  https://twitter.com/pjeffersonlim/status/795807011560652800
