This Whiteside/Embiid matchup should be pretty interesting tonight.--- give me Embiid and the 76'ers tonight! anyone want to gamble some SportsHoopla dollars on it?

 

[Wamu]

wiggy would you rather have Whiteside or Roy Hibbert? My guess is you'd pick Hibbert.

Wamu- you have to trust "The Process".

i gotta say- even at 22- id take him even over Drummond. If you didnt charecterize Porzingis as a C (which i think is debatable)- Embiid is the best "center" in the East in his first real NBA action. This kids ceiling is ridiculous.

Dario Saric actually probably has the best case for rookie of the year runner up as well....Imagine adding Ben Simmons to that- plus 2 more top 10 picks of their (own or the Kings, and the Lakers).....

thats awesome- and thats not even considerign Noel and Okafor as trade assets at the very least.

In a year or two they are gonna start to be on the radar of your Celtics and my Cavs in the Eastern Conference.

Hinkie has to feel somewhat vindicated- even if he is long gone.

Right now I don't trust any "process" the 76ers are going through.

The answer is Tristan Thompson

i do. If I was a team that was rebuilding and down on my luck without a lot of assets like the Kings or the Nets or the Knicks or the HEat id give Hinkie at the VERY LEAST an interview.

Itll take some time but you know itll be done and done right.

Hibbert in his prime or current day Hibbert?

Roy Hibbert had a prime? Holy shit!

 

[bksballer89]

What was Hibbert in his prime? 2 good series vs the Heat? LMAO

Well he did have career highs of 12.8 ppg & 8.8 rpg during the '11-'12 season. Now those are some HOF #'s.

Isn't the word prime used for great players? I'm not even trying to be funny. I think that was the first time I saw the word prime used for a role player.

Hey how dare you say a 2x A.S. like Hibbert didn't have a prime? The fact he even made 2 A.S. Games is proof how shitty the 5 spot was in the E.C. for him to even end up in that game!

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Pretty good start for Whiteside.
17-7 1st 9 minutes

....a Kardashian will ruin someone's athletic career

FIFY

....a Kardashian will ingest African American dna by nightfall.

Wait. Just read it again, yours is better. I officially would allow you to sit on my face.
