Yeah nice try....but you were wrong and got caught.

we are talking about this year if you hadn't forgotten. Last year the East was better. Do try and keep up.
The east is more talented and tougher. Doesn't matter the records. Thanks for following along so astutely.

This is why Mobley is more of a traditional 4, at least until he gets much stronger. Fans hoping he can blossom into a “stretch 4” or with some resemblance of a jumpshot. Allen is the piece that holds this defense together. Mobley is one of the best perimeter big defenders. Off ball and guarding 4’s. He isn’t Allen. Allen looks stronger this season, good to see
He’s not my team but I’m really proud of the guy and what he’s become. If you could have seen his Nets match ups with Embiid. My God! He just couldn’t compete. I watch this year and he’s in a stretch where he’s a 20/10 guy every night out! Love watching guys add to their game and develop through putting in the work. His rise has been great this year.



But again…

This isn’t good enough. In a few minutes I’m going to have to defend why he’s not an All Star this year haha.

NASTY WORK

Got to sit this crew out for a week because this is bad

10 missed calls in the final 2 minutes? WTF

At the same time, this made Twitter fun today with TWolves Twitter crying over calls after blowing a lead at home to the Hornets when KAT dropped 62 haha.

Yet somehow they lead the league in opponent fg percentage in the restricted area. You obviously aren’t looking at Dort and Jdub, they are built like Mack trucks.

I'm not criticizing the team. I don't watch them that often but when I do, I notice how much slimmer they seem than the other team.

They are a young team and they have lots of reasons to be excited for their future. Presti did a great job rebuilding that team.

Portland in the OKC a couple weeks after their record loss.

I get it but 2 of their starters would be considered more of the stronger, thicker guys at their positions in the league. Yes Holmgren is very thin and they have a lot of guys that would be considered pretty normal. Check out Dort and Jalen Williams next chance you get.

Dude, I get dialed in to my team every night I can. I get it.
Anyone that ever got to watch a team develop and come together like this one got to have a great time seeing it. It just doesn’t happen that often, not like this so yeah, I’m going to enjoy it.

My story is like the Rosanne to your Brady Bunch watching the kids grow up.

The Process has been a hell of a ride. When Joel Hans Embiid finally lifts the Larry O’Brien I’m gonna cry like a baby. I can’t say I was watching every night through 10-72. But I was checking box scores every day. I was checking in for like 3 of 11-14 games each month. I was looking at lottery odds, the whole fucking thing. And I fell in love with The Rights To Ricky Sanchez podcast.

Yeah not as long in the making for me but I watched every single one of those bad losses for 3 years. It wasn’t all bad because I got to see some real contributors like Wiggins and Dort develop along the way.

Once more, reminds me of the 2013 Warriors. A team led by home grown guys on the way to the Hall of Fame and titles.
