I know Grant getting hell but the media needs to challenge Brown and Tatum more



Tatum always get heat

Jaylen gets a pass because he has that Khris Middleton/Klay Thompson privilege. When he plays great he’s the hero, the real star, the real Batman of the team. When he plays bad, no one cares.

That’s the benefit of being the 2nd option.

Has any player in the history of the NBA loved themselves as much as this?

IDC how good a playoff run he's having. Anyone referring to themselves in the third person is a fukking lame.

what the fukk are you on about dude

dirk got sonned by a stephen jackson x al harrington combo in 07, are you saying those two are better defenders than horford??? the previous year he got fukked up by antoine walker x udonis haslem in the finals. how do they compare to horford??

typing up all those words to say nothing at all :laff: the point is that no one thought dirk could do what he did in 2011 til he actually did it. they were writing the mavs off at every opportunity. vs blazers, vs kobe's lakers, vs okc, and for sure vs miami

there's no reason why joel cant follow the same trajectory

:comeon: lemme get this straight Sixers fan; you're saying that Dirk, was essentially focused on by TWO players because the other team knew he was a problem? And with all that nonsense you just said, in what matchup did Dirk have an overwhelming physical advantage like Embiid consistently does? Dirk has always had height, and a good jumper, but not the mass to go with it.

My point still stands; it's year 9, if Embiid doesn't understand that he can take over a game because he's got an advantage both physically and athletically, he's never going to be a #1. Bam is exposing Horford who's a shell of himself -- he knows he doesn't have the footspeed to keep up with him.

Horford is 6'9 240
Embiid is 7'0-7'1 and 280

Embiid has 3-4 inches on him and 40 lbs, and he's getting locked up by a 36 year old without much help.:scust:. Embiid isn't a #1, and that's okay.

its funny you use a stephen a emoji because your takes are just like his. straight up casual shyt :laff: were you even alive to watch that series?

7'0 245 lbs dirk didnt have an overwhelming physical advantage on 6'8 220 lbs stephen jackson :laff:dirk got straight up punked in 06 and 07 which were year 8 and year 9 for him, and then came back in year 13 to beat kobe/pau, harden/kd/russ, and bron/wade/bosh in consecutive series

people in real time were writing dirk off after the 07 choke just the way youre doing now with embiid. you can stop quoting me now, casual

The thing about the Heat that other teams constantly been neglecting is that they never keep their foots on their throats because of that Miami's been constantly going on these massive scoring runs
