Thunder/TSC
Luka is Euro Harden, you get near him it's a foul, damn near every wing player on the Thunder got at least 2 fouls :heh:

Adams got 1 foul with his back to Boban trying to box him out & got called for a shove. Got his 3rd foul just standing there & having Curry just run straight into him cutting across the paint without even attempting to avoid him.

Isn't it more on his predecessor?

I only knock Brand for not firing Brett tbh
Basically.

Even though he’s gone, we’re still feeling the sting of not having the player we thought we were getting in Fultz. And best believe Elton is firing Brett if this season becomes a dud. Having Brett removes all the criticism aimed at Elton for the construction of the team. But like I said, that will only last until the end of our season.

Sucks that This King team hired Luke Walton and has been decimated by injuries.. hopefully Fox bounces back healthy and gets back to the path he was looking to before the injuries dinged him up this season

I don't know what he expected considering Joel embiid is their primary big and Ben is their primary ball handler

He just went there because they the only team willing to give him a max and now he tryna bounce
In today’s league he should be playing the 5, was going to be a bad fit. Embiid demands too much for it to work.

I know Chris Paul gotta be miserable in OKC, especially for a competitor like him.

Edit: Same with K.Love :picard:
He looks happy too me. They're winning games and currently #7 in the playoff race and improving. What team is he supposed to be on and who's would take on that contract?

Thunder are just like last year in the way they just hang around all game & the last 3 minutes is all that matters. This was like the 23rd or 24th clutch time game they've played already :mindblown:

Ferg hasn't scored in 4 of the last 5 games, hasn't even lucked into some FTs or a putback or something :dead:

Colangelo wasn't very good but Brand basically mortgaged the entire future for Jimmy Butler and Tobias Harris.....Then paid Tobias big money and let Jimmy walk.

This is on Elton Brand.

At least under Colangelo the 76ers had cap space. The 76ers are capped out with this roster.

I look at it more so as swapping jimmy for butler rather than letting butler walk for nothing...now clearly that wasn’t a good trade off...I remember in the offseason and to this day I still don’t understand why Russell didn’t sign a max extension causing the nets to match it rather than just accepting the trade to the nets.

Russell would of been perfect on the 76ers.
