Strange take.

Is he meant to jack shots instead?

Booker had 11 attempts in 41 minutes and the Suns had 32 assists on 45 makes. Efficient offence.
Durant was bricking it for the first half and a bit - was probably the time that one of them could've thrown up a few more but agree in principle. it's good that Booker and Beal aren't worried about numbers.

Errrr wrong.

No problem playing against the Lakers (H) and the easy beat Wiz (A). So what about The 2 games in between?
  • Pels away
  • Boston away

Missed both.

NEXT

Honestly, impressive to see someone try to rationalise his illness in real time.

I for one can't wait to see the recap of Embiid's 23/24 season starting with the lead line of 'It all started because he a missed a game against the Pelicans in November.'

I look forward to hearing about it after another 2nd round exit sunshine 😘
 


Doc as the favourite for the job.

Imagine sacking your championship winning coach because you don’t think he could get the job done in the playoffs again, just to hire a first time head coach when Nurse was available. Just to sack him half way through the season and now consider Doc ****ing Rivers to lead you to a title 🤣
 
I thought you immediately
Doc Rivers makes it less exciting.

At this point I’d just take Bud back. Bud’s biggest weakness was half-court offense but he’d have Dame now.

Spot on, also Doc doesn’t run an offence so he doesn’t even have that over Bud.

I remember when he was signed to the Sixers I was just excited that ‘at least it isn’t Brett Brown’. How wrong I was.

He will make 0 adjustments, run no offence blow a series with a great roster and when he gets sacked he will deflect all blame off himself. How he is even getting mentioned in the discussion for coaching gigs is beyond me. At absolute best he should be a coach for rebuilding teams where he can maybe set some standards.

Fraud of a coach still living off the hype of a title from like 16 years ago and has underachieved with every roster since.
 
He is a pain in the ass for opponents.
Really? As in his game or is in he's just an annoying campaigner? He plays zero D and can't score. The first season felt like he took a heap of charges and was really setting up our offence and when he disappeared for a while we struggled. By now I've just been counting the days till he expires. I'm surprised we traded him and took on money tbh.

I’d say both. He’s still a solid PG but yes he is very old and his legs aren’t what they use to be.

Always more times than not got those charge calls, but you are right that he has taken less charges this season and I’d like to know why as he is one of the best in the league to do it.

I thought this would be his last season but to the point where you’d see him through to the end of the season before trading him.

But nonetheless the trade definitely was an upgrade.
