The only negative id say about Embiid is he has to stop trying to dribble. When he catches the ball outside the post, if hes open he should shoot it, and if not pass it, cause hes a great passer too.

Thats honestly the only negative I can find in his game, and thats not even a huge negative.

I like ben simmons game but duke gotta expand his range.He hasn't made one shot outside the free throw line this season

The warriors were backing up like 10 feet off dude.He has to expand his range or he's a 6'10 rondo

I'm late on this post but i agree. Also GS did a great job of guarding space in the lane instead of Ben. They did a good job of fronting JoJo and shut down that give and go shit Ben and JoJo like to do. It also helps that GS have length that can move their feet like Green & Durant. He will see alot more teams covering lane space but not too many teams defend like GS. I can see Boston using this type of D next time we play them. Simmons really needs to get that jumper going asap. JoJo will benefit big time if Ben can hit a few from now and then.
 
Huge test tonight jaylen and jayson gotta play fearless, horford and kyrie have to be aggressive too. The bench needs to play energized as well. Only way we can compete tonight is if we slow it down and grind because a shootout could get ugly

Shout outs to the Lakers for Russell.

When are y'all retiring Brook Lopez's Jersey?

The first year after his retirement.

Show some love to the franchise's leading scorer

He gave up his body for almost 10 years and I think made it to the playoffs only once. He not even gonna go this year. I feel bad
 
KD article on NBA.com on his life as a champ so far
http://www.nba.com/article/2017/11/...e-warriors-gained-ground-lebron-james-court#/

He said that ever since he came into the league, he'd been mindful of James's way of doing things. He follows it still, in some respects, he said, though he was pleased to have gained some ground on the court. “He's four years older than me, so he's still the big homie. But I'm on the same level as a basketball player. Off the court, I can learn a thing from you. But as a basketball player, I feel like it's 1A, 1B. And that's an accomplishment for me.

Over the summer, he'd signed a second deal with the Warriors, for less money than he could've asked for, and the Warriors had in turn used the money he saved them to re-sign several of Durant's teammates. He was enjoying being just a member of a team, rather than the face of it. “Steph Curry is the face of the franchise, and that helps me out, because I don't have to,” he said. “I don't want to have to be the leader. I'm not a leader. I'm bad at saying, ‘Stand behind me and follow me.’ No. I'm one of those guys that's just like, ‘Let's do this [expletive] together. Let's just work everybody together. I don't mind being on the front line with you, but let's come and do it together.’ That's my way of leadership. I'm leading by example.

 
I didn't start to like Durant until after he left OKC i kinda wanna tell him that since he's used to the opposite

I lowkey hope he comes home next year.
 
KD is what he is. Top 5 player that I actually had a chance to watch and follow and hes still under 30 and when its all said and done hes gonna end up as a top 20 player.

Hes a bitch it seems but I like that hes comfortable with who he is and thats cool.
