Both games were really physical last night so expect the Wiz to come up and mess up the rhythm of Embiid and maybe Ben tonight 

Bad news we don’t play til Wednesday. Our schedule for the beginning of this series is ridiculous. Sunday then Wednesday then game 3 Saturday. 

Game is same time as Hawks Knicks, well I will be watching that one instead. Trae is the ultimate villain right now and will make for a great game.

I just watched the game highlights from YouTube and watched Beal make multiple buckets on Simmons and then score off a pick and roll where they switched. 

So this Tweet is wrong. 

It is correct.  It is based on when Ben guarded him the entire possession.  NBA tracking data confirms it

Then it is cherry picking stat. Wiz will just put them in a pick and roll because right they switch.

To Ben's credit, those are 3 of the most unlikeable D-bags in all of sports.  We can all hate on him all we want.  I hate all of them much more.  Cupcake, entitled fat beard man, and that flat earth, lazy 'ukn a-hole.

Or you could just appreciate what they do on the court and not give two craps what they off it. 

I like Durant’s game a lot.  Great player

That’s way too simplistic a view of it. It’s just human nature to want to root for good guys.
 

Obviously the uniform they wear will affect that for a fan, but all things being equal, most people are going to want to root for players who seem like decent guys, and against a-holes.

But it's not appreciating what is in front of you until they are gone. KD is a Top 12 to 15 player all time, Irving might be the most skilled guard with the ball in his hands, and Harden is a half of famer and helped change the game when he was with the Rockets. 

Yes, Kyrie has done way too many psychedelics, KD is a Twitter troll, and Harden loves strip clubs, but who cares what people do in their personal lives. We have this attachment that they owe us something or we can judge them differently because they are celebrities. Just how I look at it.

Same with Jordan but I hated Jordan too. Durant is soft, a merc, and a tool.

They're a holes who are good at playing basketball, but they're still a holes. I don't have to root for them or kiss their arses. I hope they lose every time they take the court. 

Game today. 

I think we blow em out tonight.

It is 30 mins earlier and game should be over by then 

Simmons on pace for 100 points so far tonight...

Loving Simmons on the offensive end

Don't give this team confidence, knock them out now. 

 

Ben is cleaning up all the airballs like theyre passes.

Ben nearly at a double double already 12 points and 5 boards 2:31 left in the first 

Thybulle hitting threes and ben shooting runners and dunks. We’ve hit basketball nirvana
