You guys still don't think the Lakers are forreals? They're killing the Warriors of all teams lol.

They look scary good.
randle has Allstar potential.  Russell and ingram have superstar potential.  Am I wrong or would trading Jordan Clarkson for nerlens Noel be a great move for both teams?  Noel would be a perfect fit for the Lakers next to randle.  Clarkson could play point for the 76ers and eventually transition to off-ball shooter when Ben Simmons arrives.

Would be good for both teams, but I doubt the Lakers would ultimately do it without more added to the pot.
Clarkson can't be moved until December 15th.  Noel might be gone by then.

My God.... Embiid just LeBron-Blocked LeBron.

It hit the backboard, though... should have been a goaltend.
Okafor blocked Lebron too albeit in a different fashion.

Lebron's getting old.

The lakers are good. Crazy.

Better than last year? Sure. They are lottery team again tho. LeBron has to be licking his chops watching the Warriors play. Man they are all about the 3 ball now. The ball doesn't move towards the paint.

Hmm, let's see.

If LarBrd is the Philly lover/defender on here, I have to admit, I'm the Lakers lover/defender. I love how they play. I love most of their young players. I wanna play them in the Finals soon. It would be a great series.
You must be closing your eyes when they play defense.

I definitely agree that their defense sucks. I've said that quite a few times in this thread and on other threads. But I still really like their young players. They play a very fun brand of basketball. Their offense is undeniably exciting to watch.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

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

Im with you on the embiid thing Lar. As his supporters on his thread have noted, this kid has so much potential, the only concern with him is health. If hes healthy, he will be a future superstar. Hes so freaking talented.

Holy hell, if Philadelphia beats Cleveland for their first win and Cleveland loses to Philly for their first loss, this game would be the poster child for playing down to your competition lol

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.

Looked great on the defensive end too.  He did make some very costly mistakes (turnovers) late in the game, but that happens with rookies.  He banked in the 4th 3 from straightaway, but that happens when you have it going I guess.  If he proves to be healthy he makes Noel completely expendable.  Unquestionably a star talent 2-way player.

Philly deserved to win that game.  There were some pretty bad calls against them in the 4th, one particularly where Kyrie tripped over himself and got the benefit of a bad call.  Led to a Frye 3-pointer on the subsequent play.

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!

The hawks are blowing out the rockets. Bazemore, Millsap, and Dwight each have 20+. I for one did not at all expect them to be this good right out of the gates. Dwight looks like he's fit in perfectly, something I did not expect. Props to Budenholzer, he really knows how to get the best out of his guys.

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