“Pags and E decided to give us a rest in this Saturday morning, but don’t worry, Hubert is here to fill our daily quota of catastrophism”

“Amidst blaming Thibs for injuries, Hubie was on a roll a couple of months ago at the end of the playoffs”

“lmao hubert you should have thought all that up before you decided to trade for him”

“i don’t think they confirmed the summer league roster yet…they’re still busy fucking up the real roster…Dolan told them to call Hubert to help straighten shit out…”

“You can lol my acquired optimism for your team if you want, but the Debbie Downerism you’re putting forth in high volume is actually making me kind of sad for you. (Who even needs Donnie Sixer Fan to antagonize the thread when Hubert Knicks Fan does the job internally…)”

And I’m the one who struggles with self-awareness?

DeMar DeRozan will sign a three-year, $70 million-plus deal to join the Kings, sources tell ESPN.

Lol ok Donnie.

Yeah I distinctly recall they were forcing Embiid to hobble around winded AF to avoid playing Paul Reed.

They were force to play Embiid huge minutes not because Reed wasn’t a reasonable back up center but because Morey created a team with two scorers. His 3rd, 4th and 5th offensive options were Tobias Harris, Oubre and Nic Batum. Forget about his bench. Any time Maxey or Embiid were off the floor you knew where the ball was going.

I usually try and stay out of these petty spats here. But I have to comment on this post, arguably the dumbest one I’ve read here.

The Sixers forced Embid to “hobble around” because they needed him to even have a remote chance of winning in the playoffs. Imagine thinking that choosing to play an injured league MVP is an indictment on replacement-level backup. Oh Jesus.

And if after spending your last coin you’re still head and shoulders behind a pair of teams, you fucked up.

Why? There’s only one champion a year, and lots of things can happen between now and the playoffs. Being #3 in the power rankings is technically worse than being #2 I suppose but both have a shot at a ring if things go right. We should be in the mix for at least three or four years if not more.
