Aye, my nikka actually watched a game and hit me with a honest answer@DetroitEWarren fact from fiction
In transition, you can't stop Fox. Just to much burst and agility.
Needs to speed up his release and extend his range 5-7 feet. Thats going to make or break him IMO. Good 17-15 feet in.
Definitely think he is a slower decision maker and not as advanced a passer as Fultz, Ball or even Smith.
Gonna be a really good on-ball defender. Has to add strength and fight over screens though.
Not averaging 20ppg this year
, my nikka @Poitier didn't troll me this time, good analysis fammo 
.And yes, George Hills spot has already been taken, just not official yet. The team is MUCH better while Fox is running the offense, that's been clear to see.
Fox will average 20ppg doe nikka, watch
This same thing happened to me for a couple days over the weekend on my XB1.....
I just uninstalled then reinstalled the app last night, and it was working just fine...

Dude has been great so far doe, and his mid range pick and pop jumper has came out of nowhere.
The Kings, ON PAPER, have enough talent to make the playoffs this year (prob won't though) Vince and ZBO were good pick ups, look at how good Skal has looked so far, them boys got MAJOR talent on their team, ON BOTH ENDS TOO.

Is doppelganger that rare of a word or are these dudes just dumb
Embiid vs Cousins might be some fukkeryI actually can't wait until he runs into his true rival, who might be Whiteside. The shyt talking will be
man I was smh at what I was watching from the kings last night as well. Give them another year and they'll be in the playoff hunt again....
Plus they got some young pieces to work with Skal,WCS,Mason III, Fox, Jackson....
Everyone got talent on paper in the west. It's the east with teams like Atlanta and Chicago putting all shyt rosters

You noticed with the small ball lineups that teams have .... with cavs rolling with love at the 5, golden state having zaza with zero impact, javale with low IQ and eventually settling in on Draymond, OKC rolling with Melo and PG forward lineups.. That teams are setting themselves up to lose with teams with good centers. Luckily when they face each other it's a non issue because most key match-ups don't have those types.
But youve seen this week Gasol, Jokic, Rudy gobert/favours combo beat good teams while Davis/ cousins also came close against GSW. Orlando with vucevic playing well beat Cleveland.
Squads loaded so much on the wings they have no good answer to a good C.

The whole lineup looked more composed last night.
Booker looked less strained and it showed in his efficiency.
Mike James has to continue playing unselfish.He's a gunner by nature.
He was a major ball hog in Summer League.
There was some rumblings about players being upset with his selfishness.
Seems as if he has it under control for the moment
What was the logic behind playing Jackson at the 4, when Marquese Chris is a 4
And they have a ton of bigs as well

The never ending fukkery that is the NBA
@The Dankster jumped into the discussion without following the argument properly, oh no, wait, he probably did - he would've seen that @GoddamnyacacProf made a disingenuous comment about the Warriors' playoff opponents and their postseason resume (without applying the same logic to the Cavs' opponents), but instead of @The Dankster calling him out on it (as one should), he ends up trying to argue with me, you know the person whose argument is grounded in reason. But since he's a LeBron stan he chose to purposefully ignore that, and manipulate the discussion into what he wanted to convey - which is a bunch of bullshyt in itself. He even had the nerve to post a troll smilie to make light of the discussion, when if the argument was the reverse - if a poster said "LeBron/Cavs will get to the Finals facing some combination of overachieving teams that never should've been there and teams hobbled by injuries", he would've been all up in here on his soapbox - no troll smilie in tow.Watching this line become your go to every time you get slumped in an argument is legit hilarious. You are a hypocrite and delusional to boot.
Instead of pointing the obvious out to @The Dankster, I saved myself a lot of time by just posting "LeBron stans, y'all". I want to sound repetitive - I want folk to get sick of that line, that's the whole intention, to properly reflect how repetitive y'all are with your bullshyt. Y'all stop posting bullshyt, and I'll stop posting that line.
There's nothing hypocritical or delusional about my argument - LeBron stans' on the other hand. I wouldn't expect you to acknowledge this because of the obvious.
