8 in a row. Best road record in the league now. 9 straight of 30+ for Embiid breaking Iverson’s franchise record. Two games in a row Embiid didn’t have to play the 4th. Harden and Tucker sat on the 2nd night of a back to back. Pacers without Halliburton = G League team.

Pacers really do need to get lucky in the draft. That franchise is desperate. Can’t keep getting mid round/non-top 5 picks

They have Halliburton Turner and then a bunch of bench guys. Mathurin could be a player some day though.

In a must win game, Spo played Bam and Jimmy under 34 minutes after 2 days off lol

Bulls coming off a double OT game played their big 3 38, 39 , & 41 minutes.

As I been saying for the last couple of months now, there is zero sense of urgency from this coach so I have little interest in watching this team once the they go down double digits because I know this guy will treat it like a game on November 12th and barely play Jimmy and Bam.

Went to watch WBC and CBB after that embarrassing 1st quarter

I think it’s going to be close. The catch all stat analytics voters will still vote Jokic and I can see the others splitting between Giannis and Embiid. It could be a year where the 2nd place votes actually become the factor in determining who wins.
“Embiid is right now probably the (NBA) MVP with what their team is doing and how he’s just elevated his game,” Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said. “He’s as a difficult a guy to plan for as there is in the game. He had 31 points and made it look like he wasn’t even trying to do it. He’s a walking cheat code.”

Looks like Embiid has taken over the MVP lead....good for him. He is playing amazing ball.

Also- it goes to show how long it can take for a team to be a legit contender. Sixers started their rebuild years ago- got tons of high picks- some worked- some didnt....

same with Boston--- Tatum and Brown have had some previous success- even a finals appearance, but are finally established

why I am patient with the Cavs---- just 4 years after LeBron they are looking like a team that can get home court in the first orund and have a very good young core. Its tough in the NBA to rebuild and establish yourself long term.
