Lol at the GS differential. Is it bc they love 3s or bc the league has decided it's time to bury their asses in the dirt.

They get most of their points on shooting so below average is expected. Steph also never gets calls on layups when he gets hammered for whatever reason on top of that, which is weird for a player of his status but not a new thing.

My theory for why its sooo bad is that the refs are also sick of dealing with Draymond and subconsciously punish the team for it.

Lifelong Celtics, Duke, and Christian Laettner fan. Thinks Larry Bird is the GOAT.

I'm expecting Hayward 2.0 - we're gonna hear about Cooper picking up his girlfriend from high school

The Celtics could win, or KP could get injured and they wont make it to the ECF. Hard to say.

also I was going to give it to the Knicks but the sixers do have Nick Nurse and Kyle Lowry so i have to give it to them.

Embiid and Butler both got hurt way ahead of schedule this year tbh

Anyway that's probably all she wrote for the sixers this year, even if he returns he won't be the same. He was already playing hurt

Sucks for Embiid but given his history of health issues, it's a miracle of modern medicine that he has played as long as he has. Hopefully it isn't actually as bad as it looks.

Also, go Wolves, so good to see that.
