Holy **** you’re betting on Japanese baseball?

Congrats but that’s crazy. Keep it going. :lol:
 

Yea Mike Malone has some **** up his sleeve too :lol:

He wants the ball to find Okogie so you put Jokic on him & then Gordon on Ayton so you can switch Ayton’s screens which they did.

If you want Jokic in the screen, he’s showing/trapping to get the ball to Okogie.

Monty and his staff get paid millions to see this coming a mile away :lol: So they should’ve been ready for this adjustment.

The first problem here is the tempo - Book can’t walk the ball up. If that’s a fatigue thing then they’re already in trouble.

Next Ayton has about 7 inches & 50 pounds on Bruce Brown so the ball has to find him, and most importantly you want Okogie in the weakside corner so Jokic has to rotate 25 feet to either give help or switch out.

That is a lot to set up which is why you need to get the ball over halfcourt immediately & then move with tempo.
 
Just reading through the posts so far as me like Doc Brown in Back To The Future when the wind started blowing in front of the clock tower, in anticipation of 10pm tonight.

“The Storm”
 
Entire West conference games can be summed up in Last Dragon Gifs

The time limit on Book’s Sage Mode ran out in da 4th
Book couldn't muster up the glow in the fourth.

Jokic was looking like Bruce Leroy. Bodied dude off him spun around and laid it in.

Did He Mention Him Going 0-0 In 37 Mins? :lol:
Dont get me wrong id love for PJ to shoot corner 3s but what he does beyond just not shooting is awesome for this team. Its WHY the sixers paid him

Watch that possession where brogdon turns the ball over to maxey. Look who is directing the defense each switch - without his communication and DAWG sixers be pretty lost esp like a game last night
 
run it back

-6.5 tonight doesn't make much sense, unless they know Randle/Brunson are playing & Jimmy is a true GTD
Jimmy’s out man :lol: After the injury his gait was noticeably altered, made it a point stay out of the way literally every possession and switched everything on defense because he couldn’t move. (Jalen/RJ called for a screen/DHO on two different possessions anyway :lol: )

Only 1 day of rest. 100% not playing.
 
PJ didn’t attempt a shot but he’s the main reason why Jaylen Brown could also barely take shots. He was making him pickup his dribble
