And when he wanted to, LeBron could guard them. I think there were a few sequences late in a playoff game where Rose couldn't get past LeBron at all on the perimeter and i was dumbfounded

Kings were up 21 against the Knicks but are now only up 1 at home. Josh Hart has been great. Quentin Grimes filling in well for Brunson who was injured at half

this kings game is high comedy they just keep letting the knicks miss and get their own rebounds to miss again

If I were Sacramento I’d fall to 4 to set up a possible second round with Denver. Cake walk to the Western conference finals and you avoid Phoenix

yeah, he was a good movement shooting guard in his prime, even led the league in 3p shooting one year with 47.5%. he spaced the floor for the lob city clippers and put up 18 a game for these sixers:

Reddick is the definition of "solid starter but not star player", in that if he's the star of the team your team sucks but most any team with an open spot at shooting guard could socket him in and succeed. He didn't have the size or athleticism to match up against bigger wings but he was a lights out 3 pt shooter in his prime.

He had a marginally better career than Perkins who was more of a marginal starter / good rotation guy who ended up starting more than he should have, but they both had solid NBA careers and played a lot of meaningful minutes on good teams.

he had more than a marginally better career than Perk. Perk was a stiff that everyone even at the time thought was getting way too many minutes; in retrospect, his numbers are indefensible and he shouldn't have even been in the NBA after Boston. he was a starter on a 60-win team and somehow had .474 true shooting on 11.5% usage and 28.8% turnover rate. he was averaging more turnovers than field goals made per game, which is an all-time achievement in horrible offense.

Yep, top 25 in career made and attempted 3s, as well as 3 pt percentage, but that's about it. Can't call him a 3 and D guy because he wasn't great at defense, though I don't remember him being terrible at it, just quite undersized. He was the guy you had to protect in your defensive schemes but who made up for it on the offensive end.

Rumors are he's fired up and could go off for as many as 8 or even 10 points, though I'm skeptical of the latter.

Im sure this Sixers team will inevitably let me down, but this is the most resilient team that Embiid has ever had. There have been so many games that they have crawled back into that would have been 3rd quarter blowouts in every other season.

Here's hoping it sticks through the postseason.
