If BI and Zion playing, I am taking the Pels plus the points. Either way, Luka not getting a triple double against Herb Jones guarding him and you can take that to be bank!

Making predictions is so easy

1-3 and 12th in the East at the moment and huge problems with consistency but it's all good now because Harden scored 29 points on the worst team in the NBA?

The Sixers are really talented up top but they are not playing well overall. To me the issue is who is and is not playing and the way they are playing, which is either Doc doing a bad job or Doc not doing a job at all and leaving it to the players.

giving a crap about wins/losses in the first 4 games esp considering the schedule we started with is silly. Lets not act like harden didnt just perform at a sick level against the celtics/bucks

31-9-8 against the bucks
35-8-7 against the celtics

I could be wrong but arent those 2 of the top 5 defenses in all of basketball little buddy? We are fine because of the top heavy talent... we will never win anything with doc. Is what it is

IIRC Ben Simmons has more foul outs than double digit points games this year.

This is honestly hilarious for how staunchly you defended Ben for YEARS! There was no reasoning with you.

Ben is as bad as everyone said he was. The only reason you got Harden out of him is because Harden colluded with the minority owner. He was never worth anything of value.

You both denied this for YEARS!

Harden putting up regular season numbers was never the problem. He'll continue to choke in the playoffs year after year after year and you know it, man.

Señor Stepback isn't winning anyone any championships. He's incapable. Why are you pretending anything will be different?

"Bad player" is subjective. But what I can do is list some facts:

1. He's not remotely close to being worth the contract he's playing on.
2. He's a locker room distraction.
3. He has no accountability.
4. He is what he is and he's not getting better from here on out, he can only get worse.

What do you disagree with?

No Ingram, No Zion, no Herb……maybe the Mavs overlooked the Pelicans?

I’m laughing at a highly talented guy flushing millions down the drain.

All he needs to do is trick one more idiot into thinking they will be the one to unlock Pandora's box. He still has 2 more years to work on that plan.

And Luka couldn't even get a triple double without Herb guarding him Lol

Mavs is no where close to how good the Pels will be as the season progresses. Murphy III might be their 4th best player now

He’s just doesn’t fit with Joel. If you gave him his own team….

A bit early, no?

Now show us Harden shooting against the Spurs.

nono dont lie now... the talk all last season was his weight and how horrific he looked and how awful a max contract would be for him... He is now on an insane diet/taking alot less money and balling out at a top 5 level in the league right now so no its not just about playoffs but about all of you saying he was done and his contract is gonna be awful

you have scoots in here making excuses for his recent performance because it was against a bad team but didnt do his homework and realized he was incredible against the bucks/celtics defense. Man up time boys
