I had these on deck when I made that post, I was just hoping you'd say something like "when" in response:mjgrin:


Don't look in the mirror and say Candyman 5 times if you aint' ready for the hook. :dame:

Optimistic But I Got Hands Tho
And?

What does this have to do with me not being super impressed at a preseason game?

My comment in that thread said NOTHING about him being good or bad in he regular season. Only that I would care more about good play in games that matter.

Wtf is wrong with that?

It goes back to you being able to see talent before others like @Malta already said.


I personally don't co-sign a lot of talent out of college but my track record is pretty fukking good.

Embiid is the real deal.

Apparently to you he was nothing, because he hadn't done anything in the regular season yet.

Good or bad, you didn't see talent :yeshrug: If you could watch the preseason and not see how those skills & size would translate you may be watching the wrong sport.

But you can't point to anything I ever said that says I thought he'd be bad

Where did I imply that you thought he was bad? I said you didn't see talent, and you didn't :yeshrug:

:mjlol:

So you're saying I didn't see talent because I wasn't gaga over a preseason game?

Did I not say they were nice moves?

So hold up: let's say I didn't see talent (which is clearly false) you're saying I didn't see talent but I also didn't say he'd be bad. So I said....he'd be the living embodiment of purgatory in terms of talent?

You don't even make any sense breh. :russ:

:stopitslime:

You didn't see talent because you clearly didn't know how the things he was doing would translate hence all the needing to see it in the regular season.

You can throw a ton of smileys on it, but the fact remains you had no idea how 7'2" 280lbs, elite skillset and excellent athleticism would carry over :mjlol: "I need to see him against the Suns on a Wednesday night in December before I know if he's real or not"

Hope he stays healthy.

That post move was on Tyler Zeller tho.
Not exactly a high bar.

:skip:

Jerebko was about to double him and he identified it and made the move based off that, notice the rip move up when Jerebko swiped for the ball. Even the Celtic announcers were saying how nice of a read it was and how he doesn't pre-determine his moves, he just lets the post flow through him :wow:

Your Debbie Downer ass wont steal my happiness today.

I think it's encouraging.

:ld:

It's not

I got in my feelings yet this is the first time I @'d you, meanwhile you been hitting me up about Embiid since then? That doesn't make much sense :jbhmm:
Where is this proof that I thought he'd be bad?
Where is this proof that I didn't think he had skills?

Holla at me breh.
