11-1 now with Ben and Joel playing.

Simmons is getting a lot of ink here but Embiid is a different guy this season.  Much more focused and consistent.   He has been great to date.

Joel is the undeniable EMB-VP.

And he slowly learning to just drift inside and stay inside.

I think It will end up between LBJ,Joel,Doncic and Jokic.Joel has a chance if Sixers can finish best record of the regular season.

I feel like Joel and Ben are finally figuring out how easy it is for them to just bully their way to points.

If this continues forget about it.  Nothing is stopping Joel or the Sixers.

The last 5 quarters are the best I have seen them play together in a long time. And, the most productive performances together as dominating and clear chemistry between them.

Smart teams like the Sixers, Nuggets, Lakers and even Cavs are rediscovering the inherent superiority and efficiency of post up play.

Had we drafted Harden, we would have become a cheap imitation of the Bucks quite frankly.

I'm very happy with the direction this team is going.

Nice grab there with the Cavs! They have a nice looking young team and Prince and Allen coming to them in that trade, there is a lot to like about that team. Not sure what they will do with Drummond, but he's only 27.

I'd keep Drummond.  He can play the way he's playing for another 10 seasons.  Very efficient and smart, the closest we have to a modern Tim Duncan.  I'm glad he found a way to stay relevant amidst this small ball lunacy.

And if Lebron tries to join Cleveland after this season, his must legally change his name to "Without Shame"

The Nets couldn't compete with Cleveland's frontcourt, with or without Durant. Obviously without KD is was easier for the Cavs but they aren't the team they were last year or the year before. They are becoming more relevant. It also showcased the defense problem the Nets might have with their Big 3. And the post season is a lot about defense.

13-1 now in games Ben and Joel play.

Can't call tonight's win "cheap" either.

The Lakers are supposed to be the most physically imposing team in the NBA and we honestly imposed our physical will on them.

We just need to add a decent back up PG and C and we good.
