I tried to take Embiid's advice but googling "white people shooting" just brings up a bunch of spree killings and BLM protests

I am excited for Embiid to be the Super Cool Beas/young Sabonis hybrid we all knew he could be but I've also been burned too many times by Anthony Randolph to trust anything cool or goodGlamorama26 posted:No he's not. rip yinka ~$~like whoa~$~

My takeaway from the game is dipo looked nervous and needs to pass the ball. Also Russ might actually raise his rebound average to double digits

Julius Randle put up 18/7/6, that's pretty outstanding especially considering how ordinary of a passer he was at UK and last yearJota posted:He was getting roasted on defense by loving Nik Stauskas.

How'd Harrison Barnes do? Looking at the box score he seemed to do well enough. Don't know if I'm the only one, but it's a pretty funny subplot this season seeing how he'll do on that contract..

The Nets played way better than the 20 win team I want them to be. I assume their white stiff role players aren't going to be ace from 3 forever though.

The bench is going to be garbage for a while, though, hopefully Clifford can figure out how to stagger MKG/Batum the right way or Cho can address it mid-year. I really wish Courtney Lee would have stuck around as a 30-mpg bench wing but four years was too much

TIMBERWOLVES RECAP I still cannot believe Memphis hit 11 3s at 45% clip. I guess I don't feel as bad Minnesota losing a close game because if Memphis is hitting their shots like that, what do you do? Minnesota's bench looked like hot garbage, and that is concerning. Aldrich was ok (but he is the 3rd best center on the team). Brandon Rush looked worthless. Bjelica still does not look like an NBA player, and Shabazz had a quiet night (which, to be fair, his whole career he either is changing a game or invisible). Kris Dunn was weird. The kid can get to the rim, but I don't think he played like a PG at all. His two misses were both terrible decisions, but he hit 4 nice shots. Watching him this preseason and this game he strikes me more like a DeRozan than a true PG. I dunno, its early in his career but I am not sure what direction he'll go yet. LaVine looks like he took a step up from last year, and Wiggins took over the game for a while which is really nice to see. KAT. KAT started the game on a tear and then completely disappeared into a quagmire of hesitation and bad shot selection. However, his defense is a lot better. For those who watched last year KAT wasn't the primary rim protector most of the time. This year he is. He still switches on screens and can defend smaller players on the perimeter, but now he will also be the first guy down in the paint. Last night's game the refs were letting a lot of contact go, but KAT was doing a great job going vertical and generally bothering shots. I mean, it was still Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol down there so they still had success but I was really happy with how he looked. He's not at "Elite Anchor" level yet, but he's far ahead where most 2nd year bigs are. His 3 point shooting also looks legit, but his shot selection needs to get better.

Is there a site that gives an easy time-on/time-off subs for players? I'd love to fire up the replay of the 76ers game to watch Embiid's minutes but it'd be nice to know what game-time he subbed on and off.

They will get dipo to calm down and make a decision a half a second faster I doubt it. He just doesn't have that mental gear where "the game slows down for him", as they say. He can't keep up with his own physical ability because he lacks a feel for the game, and I know all that sounds like vague bullshit but I'm being very specific - an important part of "basketball iq" is not just being able to make the right decision analytically, but having your first instinct BE the right decision. It's not really a teachable skill because it's not conscious or applicable in situations where you have time to think. Dipo is a smart guy with great physical tools, but he's not a natural basketball player and it makes him very erratic.
