This is the league trying to make their nonsense tourney winner look better.

Eight of those free throws were in the last 24 seconds of the game.

It would help to at least know a little about what's going on before you comment.

10 in the last 34 seconds, all intentional with no time coming off the clock after the Raptors' basket in each case.

Semantics. I never said he wasn't a good player. You yourself said the Cavs struggle more with their starting C out than any other starter. That would certainly seem to indicate that Mobley is not what they need as a backup C, and as such, not what I consider a big. He's a 7' wing. If you want to call him a big in this modern NBA, so be it.
There are no semantics. You said Evan Mobley "does not play big whatsoever" when this is as foolish a comment as it gets.

10.5 rpg, 57% shooting with most shots in paint and 2nd in DPOY voting is not playing big at all? what would happen if you simply admitted you made a foolish comment?

Their issue last year wasn't rebounding from the frontcourt it is that 1 through 3 they got almost 0 boards against Hart Brunson RJ
Exactly.....Strus and Porter really could have helped them in that series boxing out their guards AND getting rebounds of their own.

In addition, as to the Mobley does not play big whatsoever comment he led both teams in rebounding that series and his D made Randle nearly unplayable (true Randle was hurt a little).

He’s absolutely a wing.

I'd call him a big but whatever. do you agree he "does not play big whatsoever?"
No. Just in the playoffs when he’s getting out rebounded by 6’7 and 6’8’’ guys.

FYI, some of those games Allen was out Mobley was too.

what it indicates is for this team what Allen does - especially on D - is badly needed.

Want to call him a wing that's fine, but the idea he does not play big whatsoever was just incredibly foolish. At least was just a foolish opinion and not a lie though so props for that.

I guess I wont need to look far to find another lie by you.......Mobley outrebounded every player in the playoff series, Tommy.

Did I see correct? An ABC game on a Wednesday night tonight?

I think its part of something Disney is doing to fill airtime on ABC since a bunch of shows got delayed because of the writers and actors strikes. Most of the networks shows are coming back in the next handful of weeks so I'd guess the Wednesday games go back to ESPN some time in Feb

How would you feel about miles bridges in Philly?

He’s likely the best player available who a team (Apparently, read on athletic article) couldn’t be traded and the new team has his bird rights

So he’s likely the best guy hitting fa

Had 13 in the one win. Averaged about 9 rest of the series. Mitchell Robinson and Julius Randle hurt the Cavs on the glass that series.

Cool....but Mobley led every player in the series. allen also dominated Robinson overall and on the glass in games 1 and 2.

Happen to agree with @Stakesarehigh that our guards were a bigger issue on the boards in that series.
