Thybulle continues to impress.

Thybulle continues to impress.

Dude starting to hit his shots, now....he already comes into the league as a good defender with excellent physical dimensions.

He seems like a likable dude too.

The Matisse Falcon is a good find for PHI.

Pretty much. His defense is as advertised but he's a decisive offensive player and the shot seems fine. Strong pick by Philly.

Man Jokic's passing is just incredible. He makes passes I think dont even think are possible.

This 76ers game is really entertaining. Really back and forth. 76ers up 4 in third. Horford who had been struggling from field hit a big 3 just now

waived a useful player for financial reasons.  They play in NY and are a playoff team.  Not a good look.

Same here, I was super high on due to his amazing defensive efforts in college.

And while his shot was advertised as a work in progress, it seems like he spent a lot of time in the gym, and is definitely able to nail a few shots. He looks really good.

It’s sad that Kendrick Nunn seems like a questionable at best person. Makes his explosion hard to enjoy

Those pesky Lakers continue to keep killing playoff-caliber teams left and right on the road. Miami Heat was the next victim suffering their first home loss of the year

Miami isn't that good.  They're 4-6 against .500 or better teams.  14-1 against below .500 teams.

Aside from the Bucks and Clippers, it seems like every team isn’t good enough for the Lakers though.

That's why the approach of waiting for another time to upgrade this Celtics team is not ideal.

Right now it doesn't bother some Celtic fans who hate the Lakers.

But what happens if the Lakers get banner 17?

I'm sure a lot of Celtic fans will be upset why there was no move from the Celts to stop the Lakers from winning another championship.

I hate to say it but waiting for Anthony Davis to get injured is just lame.

Danny Ainge is a gambler and very unpredictable.

That's why I believe Ainge will not repeat the mistake of last season.
Last season Ainge didn't make a trade to upgrade the roster.
All the top 3 teams in the east made upgrades at the trade deadline last season.
This time around, I think Ainge will pull the trigger.
