The Official Bigfooty NBA Week 18 - Will James Jimmy Harden and Ben Simmons make their debuts?

[Toffee Lion]

Yeah seen this movie before. Bucks will go ice cold in the third, 6ers won't miss yadda yadda.

Onto the next one.

 

[stewie griffen]

Also still think Luka should be in contention for MVP if the Mavs have a top 4 seed

if he didnt turn up 30kg overweight maybe

 

[stewie griffen]

Thybulle 1 point in the last game and a half. I hope he can grown some attacking game he'd be such a beast

Philly would never turn on an elite defender with limited shooting

Stats are insane on a team significantly over achieving, couldn’t care less about his weight.

Not on one that actually tries to improve on offence

 

[Toffee Lion]

Is it wrong to say that Embiid gets a bit lucky with some of these shot selections? Some ugly ass looks that he just continues to sink.

 

[nahnah]

I thought NBA made sure 3's that are actually 2's were corrected during the game? Hornets were screwed over

Yes it is, if he continues to hit them it’s skill not luck.

 

[Toffee Lion]

Man the Sixers just cannot miss can they.

 

[Toffee Lion]

55/40/90 splits for the Sixers through 3. Embiid getting everything to drop, so a perfect night for the Sixers.

Will say though, they'll need another level than this come playoffs. I guess they're hoping (expecting) Harden to help them achieve it.

He started the season relatively slow by his standards and missed a chunk of games.

If he’s turned up fit and performed like this the whole season… sure

If you wanna win the MVP on a 4 seed you need to be balls out insane

He had played the same amount of games as Embiid and he has been insane, don’t let the media narrative convince you of otherwise. If he wasn’t that team wouldn’t be where it is because it’s a pretty awful roster outside of him.

[Toffee Lion]

So I guess the narrative that Embiid has no help is a bit of a lie.

Niang/Maxey/Korkmaz/Harris/Millsap all been great tonight and they're getting Harden for him.

 

[Memphis]

They couldn't hit a barn door against us.

 

[Memphis]

Luke making a late push for MVP.

This is wild.

I mean Millsap was being called washed on the Nets

Kork is a legit rotation guy at absolute best.

 

[Toffee Lion]

This is wild.

Did take 35 shots though to be fair (Although he hit it at 50%, so fair play). Reminds me of hero ball Kobe days.

Kork is 4-6 and 3-3 tonight, if that's the 6ers rotation guy, they're laughing.

 

[Slysh]

He can’t do it consistently though, and when his shot isn’t falling he is a poor defender that offers nothing else on offence.

 

[Toffee Lion]

Embiid falls over, foul. Hello?

 

[Toffee Lion]

Niang still moving lmao

 

[Toffee Lion]

Giannis all of a sudden now 25/10/9 and hitting shots down the stretch. Man is just pure clutch.

 

[Marcel Proust]

So I guess the narrative that Embiid has no help is a bit of a lie.

Niang/Maxey/Korkmaz/Harris/Millsap all been great tonight and they're getting Harden for him.

Would have loved to see this sixers team with Ben not sooking but oh well.

Harden should be a great addition too

 

[Memphis]

Did take 35 shots though to be fair (Although he hit it at 50%, so fair play). Reminds me of hero ball Kobe days.

Let's be honest, he isn't playing with the best pieces around him.

I think it's normal for him to shoot the ball that much and have it most of the time.

He is literally carrying that franchise.
