Really pissed off with my sixers last night. Completely gave away the game In that terrible 2nd quarter when we allowed grandpa Wade to just stroll around and do as he pleases. This coming after we threatened to blow Miami off the court again In the first quarter. Then we somehow managed to close the gap to two points late In the fourth and of course we throw It away with some dumb passes. Oh well, Embiid will hopefully be back on Thursday and then we'll see what Miami are about. We've won six of the eight quarters thus far In this series so let's hope that trend continues. [Reply]

Looking like he is out Thursday. That was a brutal game last night for the 76ers especially in the 2nd quarter. [Reply]

It was pathetic yes, but we still managed to get within two points of them at the end despite the final score so that should give us confidence. It's been noticeable that Miami have faded badly In the second half In both games and I'm sure the coaches will seek to exploit that on Thursday with or without Embiid. [Reply]

Green will resemble something similar to Mutumbo when all said and done and thats a HOF lock
:-) THAT is your thesis? The HOF has a TON players much BETTER than Green, than it does comparable ones. And the NBA has a TON of former players who are also better than Green, who are not in the HOF. And both "bums" you listed were better players than Green. Green will never see the HOF and he shouldn't. He is a good supporting player on a super team. Take him off that team, and he's just a guy who plays hard with a bad attitude, and many of his antics would not be tolerated on a lesser team. [Reply]

Thats your opinion. What isnt your opinion is Greens body of work over the course of his basketball career. He has a hall of fame resume. He will have a better basketball resume than Mullin and Richmond. No matter what your opinion of him is or how you dont like his play style. Hes going to get more rings, more all stars, more gold medals and more defensive awards before hes done, and that will trump your eye test of him. I have already accepted hes a HOF on paper, you should too. [Reply]
Watching the game tonight, green is insanely good. The stats don’t begin to quantify his contributions. I wonder how many hockey assists he’d have if they kept such stats? [Reply]
Green is obviously making the HOF. Not even sure how that is a controversial thing to say anymore.
And yeah, it's true he couldn't be option #1 or #2 offensively on a good team. But why does that matter at all or have any bearing on this topic? [Reply]

Is Andre Iguodala a hall of famer? He has a better overall body of work than Draymond, he has led a team before which is something most people think Draymond can do and he has the championships and a finals mvp award. If Draymond is going to the hall of fame, why shouldn't Iggy? Posted via Mobile Device [Reply]
