Doc?

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

I know Morey, Harden and most 6ers fans are like PUUUUUHLEASE take him!!!!
I’m skittish though because Morey’s search for Harden is a tell that if Doc gets fired they bring in D’Antoni. I’ve said it before but I’m convinced it’s true. Count 18 months from the time D’Antoni gets named head coach and Embiid will demand a trade before we get to those 18 months. Dude has no clue what to do with a Big like Embiid. He was on Brett Brown’s staff and they ran the offense around J.J. Fucking Redick haha. He would turn Embiid into an overpaid Clint Capela.

If I had a vote, I would pick Embiid or Giannis.

But, to act as if Joker isn't worthy is going to far.

He is 100% worthy.

But, even though this is a individual award, not a team accolade, he goes behind the other two because his team is still at risk of falling into the play in tournament.

Otherwise, he's right there.

I don't understand the need to disparage one guy in order to uplift another.
Cause it’s the internet and I’m a sick son of a bitch. No games yesterday…but were you entertained?

It’s old. Didn’t I comment on this already? Dude has no filter and it’s often to his detriment. He can think these things but he shouldn’t say them out loud. I just hope he uses the snub the right way and comes back in the playoffs and next regular season with the chip on his shoulder and the desire to leave no doubt. If he takes his team to a championship these things take care of themselves.

He should be disqualified from MVP consideration for being a bitch.

I will never look at him the same way.

He's a mentally weak crybaby.

That’s why no one on Bawstan’s roster can handle that weak crybaby.

Funny story.

The Celtics have a better record than the 76ers right now.

You're such a homer you're crossing over into wiggy territory. Don't be like him.

I’ve given the Celtics praise here before most non Celtics fans here. But I spoke no lies. That roster doesn’t have anyone that can play Embiid. Horford 4 years ago? Sure. Horford now? Nope.

Interesting. Another white guy propped up with 2 MVPs. I’m sure there’s nothing to that.
My guy, why must it be a black and white thing?

I'm with you on Embiid.

We have a similar preference when it comes to player traits.

That doesn't mean we are right.

MVP voting is a democratic process, majority rules.

Nash didn't deserve both MVP awards.

Jokic won't either.....imo...because of where his team is seeded.

But, I doubt race is involved.

Also, Jokic winning would not be as flagrant as Nash over Kobe or.Shaq.

Jokic getting it over Embiid would be like Westbrook getting it over Harden.

Harden had similar numbers and his team had a better record.

Westbrook got it because of the triple double.

Jokic isn't doing that. But, what he's doing is spectacular for a guy his size.

Somewhat.....lol

Don't get me wrong, I really like Williams. But Embiid's a tough match up for most teams in the league. I wish there was a way the Celtics could upgrade the front court.

For you & all the other 76ers fans I hope Embiid can carry them to a title. But my main concern is Harden. That fella has a history of pulling vanishing acts in the playoffs.

If you were starting a Team, what order would you take these 3 guys?

Siakam, Bam, Lamelo Ball......

Damn that's a tough one. I'll go Lamelo, Bam, Siakam. But I can be talked into starting with Bam. Siakam for sure is 3rd for me.

Speaking of Lamelo that commercial he & his dad are in is hilarious.

I knew this would be your answer.

Lamelo does a bit of.everything for the Bees.

He scores, boards, assits....

He could lead the team in scoring whenever he feels like it. But, he's more interested in getting others involved.... Like Joker.

They are Swiss army knives and can't be put into traditional positions.

Bam is Embiid, obviously.

Siakam is Giannis.

I'd go Bam, Melo, Siakam.

With that being said, Giannis is clearly the best player in the NBA.

ETA: I had a hard time finding a young Joker comp.

Almost went KAT.

MELO fits better.

I agree. My stance was if they fall into a play in then go Embiid. Just as you say they are in jeopardy of falling into the play in spot, the same # of games they are in front of denver is the same # they are behind Dallas for 4th

Ball, Bam, Siakam

I take Ball over Bam only because I think he has the highest ceiling of the group by a good bit.

But I think Bam contributes in a more meaningful way today. And he is so easy to fit with anybody. His skill set is awesome.

I like watching Lamelo play. Not a Hornets fan or anything. But I've watched several of their games this season just to see him. All three though have good games.

And I agree that Giannis is the best player. No disrespect to KD. When he's on the floor he's next to unstoppable. But that's just it, he's missed alotta time. And Giannis is dependable.

Finding a Jokic comparison at his spot on the floor isn't possible. Sure there's better scorers, Embiid. Better rebounders, Gobert. And without a doubt better defenders. But no C has his court vision or all around game.

Some will knock his defense, at at times rightfully so. But this season he's actually playing the best D of his career. He's not the liability on that end of the floor that he was in the past. Dray criticized his defensive effort before the season started and Jokic listened.

I heard the lifetime channel is making a two hour show about this guy in a bar studying for an exam on the shores of Lake Erie. Is that about you?
