October 28, 2025Oct 28 So when McCain is back, and casually scoring 20-30 a night by draining 3s with his eyes closed, is this team just going to score 160 every night? And Paul George? What if he manages to make a few shots this year?
October 28, 2025Oct 28 We had them at like 11 points for a quarter but could never put them away. 9 blocks, I was wrong
October 28, 2025Oct 28 Maxey at 8 assists. 9 the other night. If this continues, an entirely new element has been added to his game.Im just not sure if its him as much as having a bunch of teammates who can actually hit the shots when he passes to them.

October 28, 2025Oct 28 OK I’m going to throw a grenade in here and then head back to the blog…Ignoring the mental baggage and history, what kind of fit would an optimized Ben Simmons be on this squad?

Pretty awesome to watch.He needed to become a better passer too to take the next step. His assists numbers this year being what they are is a great sign. Especially when you have vj, McCain and grimes who can hit shots
October 28, 2025Oct 28 When McCain comes back, we will add yet another ball handler. Maxey, McCain, VJ, and Grimes can all ball handle and facilitate. It makes the offense have better ball movement and keeps the flow going.

Need more glue guys who dont need the ball and will make those savvy veteran plays to complement this group.
October 28, 2025Oct 28 Pacers like how McConnell is a dark horse MVP candidate every year, so they are signing the next great scrappy 76ers PG that nobody wants to give a chance to. McClung. Bet hes gonna average 30 for them.
October 28, 2025Oct 28 I find Adem Bona to be a really, really interesting player. The 3 best young players on the team are all back court ball dominant shooters.A front court player who is a highly athletic rim protecting defender, rebounder…and is a rudimentary non-ball-dominant offensive player who can at least explosively drive to the basket and get above the rim.The weird part is that he’s a bit undersized for a 5, which is how he’s primarily utilized so far…and Embiid isn’t gone yet. It seems like he’d be a great fit as the 4 with Embiid on the court and their 3 guard look, considering not everyone can handle and shoot the ball.

It seems like he’d be a great fit as the 4 with Embiid on the court and their 3 guard look, considering not everyone can handle and shoot the ball.Technically Embiid is the stretch 4 this season, and Bona is meant to be the 5 (cant shoot). I am disappointed in Bona's rebounding. Need more. We arent asking him to do a whole lot. I hated Bball Paul, but if we were going to ask this little of a front court player, he would have been fine here. Preferable to bona IMO. Bona is my least favorite player on this roster so far.
