    I didn't understand why Westbrook being the reigning MVP had anything to do with why the foul should have been called.

    BTW, I thought Embiid went straight up and down and Westbrook clearly jumped into him, but he definitely fouled Westbrook on the block attempt.

    Redick would've really been useful this game. Sixers not composed right now.

    I love Paul George’s game so much...damn I wish he’d come to Houston and a Big 3 of Harden, PG, and CP3 won a chip

    I think he’s staying in OKC if they manage to at least have a good showing in the 2nd round

    The East's reign on top was shorter than leprechauns.

    After trailing early this season, the West is now 25+ games better.

    Stan played him at the 3 yesterday, but i'm pretty sure he did that already lately, Tolliver was ther starting 4...i mean, Tobias can play the 3, he's a 3 originally, but in today's nba he's more a 4 obviously, just like Melo (which is actually very similar as a player imo)...at this point i think he's just shaking and baking because he just doesn't know how to make his roster work lol, hope he gets frustrated after another disappointing season and makes some dumb moves which we can take advantage of...we can only prey like you said.

    Tobias is also 25 so, still pretty young, the contract is ok (if i remember well it's actually declining)...i'd take one of the Pistons meh/bad contract back if they would be willing to trade him here for Ryan, like:

    Tobias + Leuer
    $10,497,319 - $10,002,681 - $9,508,043

    So yeah, another bad contract, but should be easier to move in a sign &trade for Lebron, especially alongside Harris
    for Ryan + a couple of our young player (Stan probably likes Hartenstein like he liked D.Mo) and 2nd rounder/s.

    This way, this summer we would have a very good player to move for a sign & trade if Lebron would be willing to come here (pretty sure the Cavs would gladly take back Tobias instead or Ryan).

    yeah u do...I feel much better about our chances in the playoffs and against teams like GS with Tobias at the 4 instead of Ryno who’s impact on this team gets overrated

    Tobias is a huge upgrade over someone like Anderson

    Y'all see the Pelicans Hero when 1/6 from the field with only 3 points. However, when he plays Houston drops 20 and can't miss a three. Oh, NBA...
