He has earned a multi year contract and I have to think someone will give it to him

There will be teams with cap space, namely the Pistons, Magic, Pacers, Blazers and Spurs. How they will spend it is anyone's guess though.

is this recent?

Pretty recent. He’s at the Nets training facility.

Carnitas is my favorite Mexican food. I have about 5 different recipes for them. lol

The crock pot is one my favorites. There is a store near me that I get the pork from because they sell it already cut up. Saves the time of having to do that part myself.

I'm a barbacoa man myself.

who would win a 3 team tiebreaker between Philly, Boston, and Milwaukee? @fightinfunbags

Not sure about Boston and Milwaukee but Sixers would be the 4 for sure.

Here's the perspective from Boston's side:

Celtics' playoff scenarios are now straightforward entering Game 82

Who will the Celtics face in the first round of the NBA playoffs? The scenarios have become clear with only one game remaining for every Eastern Conference contender.

www.nbcsports.com

The Celtics get the No. 2 seed if:​

• Bucks lose to Cavs
• Celtics beat Grizzlies

The Celtics get the No. 3 seed if:​

• Bucks beat Cavs
• Celtics beat Grizzlies

OR

• Bucks beat Cavs
• Sixers lose to Pistons
• Celtics lose to Grizzlies

The Celtics get the No. 4 seed if:​

• Sixers beat Pistons
• Celtics lose to Grizzlies

This actually gives me a bit of hope there’s a Bulls scenario for the Sixers. I was assuming that they were locked into the 4.

 

[fightinfunbags]

So it looks like the Bucks will set this decision into motion for Sixers and Celtics.

Shaq averaged 29.7ppg and 29.3ppg.

Thought he had averaged 30ppg.....wow.

Free throws lol. If could've made them more consistently....

Just short. Embiid is the first center in 40 years to average over 30 PPG. Last one was Moses with the Rockets in 81-82 who averaged like 31.1 PPG.

You can thank Simmons for that. More on Embiid's shoulders.

Simmons was actually better than most at feeding Embiid in the post. And Simmons had little role in the Sixers half court when he was here. He is a defensive stalwart and a transition player. The biggest areas where Simmons has hurt the Sixers are in team areas specifically defense and rebounding.

Looks like the Cavs could get lucky today

Embiid's attempts are up across the board (2pt, 3pt, FT) though due to having to carry more of the offensive burden. Career highs all.

Not following. What is at stake for Cavs today?

The Bucks don’t want the 2 seed lol

That’s a product of Embiid growth and not the loss of Simmons. Maxey has taken more shots than Simmons (13 per game vs 12 per game).

No one does.

Which makes today pretty interesting.

I think you're taking this as a shot at Embiid; that's not my intent.
