I don't know if it's right to compare Doncic to the other rookies. He's played, what, three years at Real Madrid already. I think that gives him an advantage over these guys who came from college basketball.

I'm done with this team until further notice, it's the same lazy effort we did last year which is why we were barely above .500 to begin with when Cousins went down.

I genuinely thought the effort and focus we showed to end last season was what we were now but obviously not.

AD is a big part of it all as well, when i argued about AD vs Giannis last year and i said it's way deeper than stats (when AD was actually engaged and doing the stuff stats don't show) this is what i was talking about.

His numbers look great but he's nowhere that player, he hasn't shown effort, he doesn't look engaged, he's not communicating or leading.

Before anyone mentions it, he's been doing this for years and then picking up the effort and engagement in the 2nd half of the year.

Nobody mentions it because nobody watches us play, it's a big reason why we've only made the playoffs twice and also a big reason why before Cousins went down i considered him overrated.

I was hoping the effort, engagement and intensity to end last year was a change in mindset for him but nope.

Still have no idea why anyone would pick Ayton over Doncic and JJJ.

JJJ was a defensive prodigy who could shoot 3s and was younger and just as athletic as Ayton. Memphis got a MVP caliber player.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Markelle Fultz will continue to see medical specialists about his right shoulder into next week, continuing a search for solutions that has included several rounds of examinations in recent days, league sources told ESPN.

The Sixers will wait until Fultz completes those appointments before approximating his next steps on a return to the franchise, a team official told ESPN.

Fultz's teammates are increasingly concerned about his overall well-being beyond his struggles on the court, league sources told ESPN. The organization has expressed its support as Fultz, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2017 NBA draft, completes his consultations in the coming days.

He met with physicians in New York over the course of the past week and stopped at the team's suburban Philadelphia practice facility briefly between appointments, sources said.

Fultz's agent and attorney, Raymond Brothers, informed the Sixers on Nov. 21 that Fultz would seek further opinions on his shoulder before a return to the court --- a decision that the organization has left to Fultz and his management team.

Sounds like he's going from doctor to doctor until he finds one that gives him a diagnosis that pleases him, i.e. something else than mental issues. This guy's a mess.

Welcome to Toronto, brother. We like Drake and winning regular season basketball games. Kawhi laughs, new balance shoes and brisk winter air

this is unwatchable

we have no movement in the half court... Which is to be expected since our coach continually says we don't need to practice offense, it will happen naturally

I did, this Suns team over four quarters.

Ingram looks so unlikable... but could be a very good player if his shooting was a bit better. Just heard the commentators say he's shooting 50% free throws in the last few games or something.

I don't think Booker would make a difference as you already lost 4 categories before today. And you'd need to win assist, which looks unlikely given your roster today compared to mine.

Also you got a player on your bench you've not put in yet. You can still make it.

Agreed it should be like that. But only if we were playing in a keeper league.

^^perhaps not, but he could have gotten me good points, assists and steals which are still up for grabs.
He missed the last game as well.

Spurs made a win-now trade without getting a single good young asset, and now they're involuntarily tanking basically Laughing

Spurs have really been heading this way ever since they signed LMA tbh.

Which is funny because everyone and their mother considered them the favourites when he signed.

Really? I remember it being pretty objectively clear that Toronto got the better deal, only thing being it’s more than likely a one year signing. The sentimentality behind moving DeMar is what made people in Toronto salty at first.

I still can’t help but feel bad for DeMar, he was so well liked here.
