The Wolves.

t. Sixers fan

First for Embiid All-Star team 2016

Y'all better start asking some questions real fuckin soon

Inefficent chucker.
vs
Elite defender

Philly says no and gives Okafor away for fun.

Are the Blazers ever going to play defense?

Player who is starting on his team
vs
Can't take minutes away from Jahlil Okafor

they did it again

>Player who is starting onthe Timberwolves

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>Best defender is Al-Farouq Aminu
>second best defender is literally who knows

I'm going with: "No".

Lowry is the best point guard in the NBA

dont (You) me

>Player who can't get into the lineup on the sixers

u mad white boi's???

>check Celtics-Thunder boxscore
>get to Westbrook
>45-11-11

Jesus Christ...

That man's winning MVP. Wew'd Kobe.

Lowry is 11/15 tonight in only 26 minutes so far, 28 points, 4/7 from 3. He's been unreal this month, something like 55% from 3.

>The Thunder are now 11-3 this season when Westbrook records a triple-double

So let me get this straight, "stat padding" equals wins?

Or is Westbrook's triple doubles actually just a byproduct of helping his team win games?

Really activates my almond joys.

The whole Raptors offense has been unreal so far. #1 in the league, historically great.

And they're still gonna be the 2 seed. Jesus fuck how bad can their defense possibly be?

Why would the Wolves give up a superstar for a decent player?

Noel's good, but Wiggins is gonna sell jerseys for the next decade or more.

Part of it is that Westbrook getting rebounds is more helpful than most players getting them, because he immediately gets out in transition, where he's lethal. Assists are obviously helpful to the team, as are points.

The other part is that the rest of his team is complete garbage.

>mfw the Lakers could've drafted this guy instead of le 30% FG slender man on ambien

LMAO

Presti drafts yet another superstar in the making.

ya'll sleepin on my boy lowry

What makes you even think he will sell jerseys? He hasn't been remotely good.

>The other part is that the rest of his team is complete garbage.

that's going too far. Adams and Oladipo are very good players that every team in the league would gladly take in their rotation.

The problem with the Thunder is their depth, though part of that is Payne being out and the Thunder making the questionable decision to keep Christon instead of Price.

Rudy Gay sold jerseys when he was good. Fringe All-Stars in small markets sell fairly well. Wiggins is probably gonna be a fringe All-Star, Rudy Gay type.

>tfw anxiety free christmas coming up
>tfw btc

>drafting baby sabonis

lel no thanks senpaitachi, we're going to steal Dragan bender from the suns and he'll end sabonis's career.

Baby Sabonis going to be greater than Love and Bosh.

Take Westbrook off the Thunder. Are they better than the 6ers? Probably, but Embiid is better than any of Kanter/Adams/Oladipo.

Without him they're something like a 20 win team. Think Brooklyn.

IsIngram averaging like 0 counting stats per game? Embarrassing.Kekers fell for Kevin Durant lite meme.

>Kanter had 6 rebounds

>4 offensive

DAMN

>but Embiid is better than any of Kanter/Adams/Oladipo

6ers worst big man (Okafor) is better than Timberwolves bestbig man (KAT). Sucks to suck.

WE OUTCHEA

Embiid is on Hall of Fame trajectory.

It's actually average. Not much worse than the Cavs. And they are also the only team in the NBA who haven't lost by double digits, have an overall larger point differential than the cavs. The difference is the Cavs can win games at will against good teams. Out of the Raptors 8 losses, 3 came against the cavs, 1 against the Warriors and 1 against the Clippers. That's only 3 losses against teams that are worse than them.

Oh.

My rapties are unstoppable and there's not a damn thing you can do about it

youtube.com/watch?v=20VGdpFAhCM


>He got dominated by slowest big man in NBA

He's exploding knees and feet Hall of Fame trajectory

>mfw the Warriors destroy the Cavs by 50 on xmas day

who else /notgaybutwouldtotallysuckoffdevinbooker/ here?

First forSexers Rapeters broship? Senpai

Well done, well done, HOWEVER

who /RW/ broship here? raptieswarries broshippies here?

>Exploding knee

Do youeven know what you are talking about?

Ray King on Twitter:
>Isaiah Thomas said Adams' screen knocked the wind out of him: "That guy's probably the strongest in the NBA for sure."

>When it looked like Thomas was barking at Adams, the big man had told him Cs needed to call out screens. Thomas told Adams he was right.

Steven Adams giving out tips and pointers to the opposing team while sledgehammering their guards. Seems like a pretty chill dude.

Who cares? They did that last year.

Right here famalam.

Still lose while 3 games aheadwhen it counts.

>losing culture

based af

sup

Lowry was 15/20 tonight. Wow. 36 points on only 20 shots and 2 free throw makes.

>Embiid is better than any of Kanter/Adams
>Adams

he really isn't. Adams plays winning basketball and doesn't give a shit about his numbers, Embiid plays for himself. If you're trying to build a contender you would be retarded to pick Embiid over Adams. It would be like picking Ricky Davis over Bruce Bowen.

All these knee injuries on his record, do you? He's also got back problems.

>Adams plays winning basketball

Why hasn't he fucking won anything then?

typical coonery

You're wrong.

BASED

FUCKING

ADAMS

Real recognize real. IT played it cool.

N O T A G A I N

Giannis and Brogdon both dropped their career highs in a big win against the wizards and no one bats an eye?
For shame.
Crowd chanted mvp when giannis was at the ft line and everything

...

he was carrying the Thunder in the WCF with his defense and rebounding while Westbrook and Durant were misfiring. Best ORTG/DRTG in the playoffs while Westbrook was barely positive and Durant was literally neutral.

TallGreek boy is an overrated meme at this point.

Patrick Beverley literally grabbed Conley's throat, chocking him, and had the nerve after the game to say it was "a basketball play"

Dirty cheating motherfucking thug.

no, i dont like the lakeys but bully seems like a cool guy. his success makes me happy

>carrying the Thunder in the WCF

Wow what a great player he carried them right out of the playoffs

That was literally goal tending. Quit posting this you retard.

Fuck you. Have a (you) for this worthless post.

He will lead his team to the Eastern Conference Finals. Prove me wrong.

>clippers can't even beat the shitty Mavs
lmfao

seriously he's so fucking overrated it's not even funny.

He's at best a top 100 player in the league currently.

100% goaltending

what would happen if Embiid punched Lebron?

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA lebum fags are hella butthurt

it would make his narrative greater when he beats the warriors down 4-1.

Because the cavs just bitch slapped them twice without love. They have a nice future though

...

Durant lost game 6 and Westbrook lost game 7.

He's not a superstar or even a star, but he's a player that does what he is asked to do and does it well. Embiid can't even lay off the cheeseburgers, much less box out or rotate properly on defense.

every team has a off night, the clippers are still one of the best teams in the league.

IsEmbiid part android now? Like that black guy from Teen Titans? That would explain the beautiful stroke.

>He's not a superstar or even a star

So we agree

NOW I DO WHAT I WANT
NOW I DO WHAT I WANT
NOW I DO WHAT I WANT
NOW I DO WHAT I WANT
NOW I DO WHAT I WANT
NOW I DO WHAT I WANT

ENE-MEMES I GOTTA LOTTA ENE-MEMES

what would happen if Embiid punched Lebron?

there was no argument that he was a star, just that he is a better player to have on your team than Embiid because he plays for the team and not just on the team.

answer this question: Ricky Davis or Bruce Bowen? Which one would you pick?

Giannis is really just a matter of hype at this point. The boy can literally do almost evrrything, one of them being able to play at any position well.
Besides, its refreshing talking about a different team that isn't the raptors, lakers, spurs, celtics, suns and 6ers. Especially Sixers. I think this general is the only place ive been where pretty much everyone sucks embiids cock.
honorable mention of over talked shit goes to the sons meme. fucking stupid meme.

he's for sure not human that's for sure no doubt indeed.

he's what 19 years old missed 3 years due to injury and already on track to win a mvp?

Aldridge shitting on Portland tbqh

The Sixers are so shit besides Embiid, my god. His back must hurt.

>he's what 19 years old missed 3 years due to injury and already on track to win a mvp?

how do they do it?

too many journalists have written love letters about him last week, it's too much hype for a player who still has some serious limitations(mostly his shooting)

Bucks vs twolves finals is going to be hype as fuck in 3 years

>building a franchise around Steven Adams over Joel Embiid

>I've falsely equated a guy who could be Hakeem with a 3 point shot to Ricky Davis
>Now he will be forced to agree that an average roleplayer who does his job is better than a guy who scores 20 points in 28 minutes every game in his rookie year.

Jesus christ.

so is it confirmed? Embiid is officially "/nba/ guy"?
