@Flight @Malta

One thing that didn't show up in either highlight and I know @Poitier is gonna be upset but when Markelle and Ben were on the same squad in the 4th, Markelle was disengaged and pretty much on corner duty

@Book the Cook he looks a bit more explosive to me than he did in SL last year. It's a scrimmage so you can't get nothing out of it.

I think the Sixers should stop trying make Simmons a point guard and just let him be a face up forward who a great passer like Blake/Malone
It hurts the offense when your Pg has no threat of shooting from the outside.

I got you with that link. We gonna keep non philly brehs fed in the official thread.

@Book the Cook he looks a bit more explosive to me than he did in SL last year. It's a scrimmage so you can't get nothing out of it.

The thing that stood out most is breh was on attack mode and his ball handling. In SL he was on his wow wow pass shyt in this game he was getting his. Finished with 25/10/6 iirc

Also low-key Korkmaz was the 2nd best player this afternoon.

Brett said they gotta get his form back to what it was like at UW.

@No Homo lets get this bk thread going

36 wins leggo

 

[Emoryal]

If the spurs FO is so good why can't they get a pg of at least bledsoe caliber and win like 5 more games and add another win or two in the playoffs. Shyts wild to me

Korkmaz was ass in club & U-20s
But had a good SL & EB.
I think he'll have a chance to be solid in NBA.
I like his offensive skillset.
Seems like potential off screen guard like Fournier

Schroder

That doesn't really apply to players that are as tall as Simmons, he presents problems because he can pull an opposing big out of the lane whether it's the PF on him or the PF having to guard Covington. Playmaking forwards are highly coveted around the league, turning one that can run an offense into a faceup 4 is hustling backwards.

Funny you mention Blake, since most people feel like his talent has been wasted, in that they should have let him initiate and run the offense more often.

Raptors Clippers coming up in 15 mins

Norm MIP era beginneth

The best players in that mold Bron,Giannis,Pippen,Grant Hill.
Bron can legit shoot from 3 and midrange compared to the rest them.
Giannis derives majority of his impact from defense.
Pippen same.
Grant Hil was great but his Pistons teams was average to below average offensively except for 1 year.
Pretty much I feel that since the Sixers have a great guard prospect in Fultz who more apt to run the offense imo
That using Simmons like I mentioned will be best to increase the teams Offensive ability.
