Its hilarious to see the whole world go at John Wall after that trash ass performance.

John Wall so sensitive I know hes reading everything on the net and getting all in his feelings.

That whiteboy C on the raptors poteyl is a better defensive player than valicounous get valunicous outta there trade him

Duke does all the little things jv doesn't(he single handedly drags the raptors defense down)boxes out,contests shots,switches on wings/guards,blocks shots bet money if he started over jv raptors overall will be better.

 

[Tommy bilfiger]

Ben simmons be passin to a player with 3 seconds on the shot clock to throw up prayers that be brickin

that's that rondo shit I be talkin about.Simmons jagged that game last night cuz he kept doing that

I don't remember embiid getting the the rock the last 2-3 mins.

Embiid need to play under control he almost broke his neck,landin on players like he jumpin off turnbuckles

I noticed that too. The raptors had a whole different feel everytime Poetl got in. He was grabbing offensice board, keeping plays above. Ibaka garbage defensively now too, so they need a defensive rebounding center.

Yesterday was the first time I really watched Poetl, but dude just seemed like he had a feel for the game and was always in the right position offensively and defensively. He always knew how to move the bigs that were gaurding him away and create space for the wing to operate with the ball depending on which side the ball was in.

He was always in the right place on offense too but the Raptors wings dont know how to get the ball in the post.

I dont want to over react cause it was my first time watching him and he mighta just had a great game but I was impressed with what I saw.

Im gonna give Simmons the benefit of the doubt and blame it on inexperience, but he fucked up that last drive. I feel like he wanted to be the star and make that last shot to get the sixers up by 4. My dude dribbled for 20 seconds but the Rockets kept closing every lane to the post and then he gave the ball to Bayless like 4 feet away from the 3 point line and 4 seconds to go and forced Bayless to try a wreckless drive.

I saw Bayless looking at Simmons after that like he wanted to steal on him.

Cant put teammates in bad positions like that cause you wanna dribble the ball looking for a driving lane.

Simmoms got that triple double versus us cuz Anthony tolliver was guarfing him. Idk what Stan Van Gundy was thinking.

I can score on Tolliver

John Wall needs to reevaluate what his goals are for this season. Its only 4 games but this nigga is trippin with how he playing.

Almost forgot.... FIRE ERNIE GRUNFELD

What are his goals

23 points and 10 assists through 4 games is trippin? Only thing I see is his shot ain't falling right now and maybe not trusting his teammates enough down the stretch because he plays hero ball a bit

 

[D. Morgan]

Think I'm going to watch more Bucks games this year just to see what the Greek is liable to do.

 

[Tommy bilfiger]

Noel is not starting or averaging 20 mins a game and still puttin up 9 ppg 7 rpg 1.4 steals 1.2 blocks

Don't know what dallas doin wit noel,he's an ufa next summer

 

[King_MOEbra]

It will be an honor for my Cavs to play the BBB'd up Lakers in the Finals.

 

[D. Morgan]

Hey @BlackAX410 you can agree but I didn't need the reaction cause your agreement isn't coming from a good hearted place. LLS!

It's unbelievable how the Brooklyn Nets beat the Cave by five points. They seriously suck as a team with no stand out player other than Jeremy Lin; no shade!

since he was fired sam mitchell been on nbatv wearing those hoop earrings and grinning ear to ear while watching the twolves get smoked multiple times a week

adjusting to new teammates is one thing

lacking any effort or pride in what you do is a whole other thing

towns

wiggins

teague

seem like they dont give a shit if they get torched on defense as long as they get their shots on the other end — like itd be one thing if the twolves lost these last 2 games because their shots just werent falling or were still trying to work out the chemistry but to lose because of effort?

discouraging
