they are just cruising. Feel like they have done little of note but sit poised to grab home court advantage.

agree, won't have it all their way though, the Clippers look to be finding form (last game aside)

Wemby with a 21-minute triple double
The Warriors are in that horrible position where their favourite sons are cooked, but they can't trade them. Don't pay Dray, don't pay Klay, they are vet min players now. They aren't even a play-in team now, it's time to properly rebuild.

The ppg might be the least impressive thing he’s doing, especially given I don’t love the 5 x 3pt attempts per game at 30%…but what he’s doing on the glass and at the rim defensively is really awesome.
Both talent and determination in a shitty team being coached to tank. He’s averaging 3.1 blocks pg which is really wild - to your point on minutes restrictions, that’s basically 4pg on a per 36 basis.
Oh, and he’s also 2nd in the league 🤯
Likewise his rebounding, 10.1pg is 13pg on a per 36min basis.
Truly great numbers for a rookie.

lol Embiid saw the Wemby hype, and he took that personally
He's taken basically half of the sixers shots today, helped himself to a quiet 59 and 15. He's having an incredible season

wait, and KAT has 44 in a half. Night out for the big fullas

And Edwards couldn’t hit the side of a barn.
Embiid took 41 shots from the field and attempted 23 FTs - those are Kobe-esque numbers. It was a pretty decent game for 2 and a bit quarters.
I’m interested in what trades are coming. The OG one has worked from the get go. Siakim is taking a few games it seems.
Key players I’m watching to see potential moves - Anfernee Simons, Dejounte Murray, DeRozan. These are all good pieces for Championship aspirants with 2 established frontline scoring options (eg Bucks, Lakers, Mavs (although they have cap issues))
-
The Hawks will be looking to get their money back on Murray and I don't think that's going to happen
I'm interested to see what OKC does. All th3 picks in the world, and already a really good young core.

Didn’t see this one coming - Bucks have fired Griffin. They have the second best record in the East but they don’t seem to want to play defence at times. Is that the coach or the fact that having both Dame and Middleton on the court at the same time exposes your defence….

I think it's both, plus Lopez ageing is a factor
They have scraped home against some shitty teams this year, really haven't been convincing

Looks like they are talking to Rivers. I can understand the move, their team is in win now mode and sitting on their hands while they gently go into decline isn't going to endear them to Giannis

I don't agree with the choice. But I can see what they are trying to do

This.
It's been a very long time since 2008 with Garnett, Allen, Pierce, Rondo, Perk, & some nice role players like Posey, Brown, and Cassell.

I was reading that it was Giannis who pushed for the Griffin hire.
Doc has a 0.590 winning record (1097-763) in the regular season but his teams tank in the playoffs.

He is an appalling in-game coach. Apparently a decent player(ego)-manager.

I think Lopez has been pretty open about not been happy with Griffin also.
Doc isn’t the answer for coach.
On the player front they should push hard to get Caruso
