Ay, am I being ridiculous in thinking Joel Embiid might have a pre-injury Arvydas Sabonis type ceiling? I mean Embiid has shown he can potentially dominate the post, lockdown the paint, be mobile enough to hedge hard and recover, and step out and hit the three; I can't think of anyone that damn big who could do all of that outside of the mythical stories I've heard about Sabonis overseas.

I'm hoping he does I liked the NBA when it had dominant big men as well as elite scoring wings. I want bigs to take over again.

He was fine with the Pacers til someone smashed his girl or something :russ: Either way, Ewing's done a lot for dude so far.

he got paid and stop giving a fukk:manny:.....bad enough he was already a nonchalant goofy dude.....spent most the offseason in gtown instead of LA coolin with his celeb homies, he will have a bounce back season....

my cuzzo was at the knicks-wiz game last night, he said that joint was live as fukk....too bad most of the real fans can't afford the ridiculous regular season tickets....
