That time he hit 6-7 fadeaway jumpers against the raptors, each one seemingly more difficult than the last. They already had a sizeable lead, he just did it to make them look stupid and kill the crowd.

You are not 'the best player' if you miss too many games.

I watched one of lebitch's games yesterday from his glory moments. Bitch was not bad at all.
Yes but no one is going to get MVP or any of the other awards if missing a fair chunk of matches anyway, unless they were absolutely stellar. It's an arbitrary criterion and creates silly incentives, like pushing players to play when not fit, and daft outcomes - like a bench player who plays 20mins a game over 65+ matches is technically eligible whereas a top tier star who is injured for 18 games but otherwise played 30+ mpg is not. Seems like some players may miss out on contract payouts as well.

Load management was such a pisstake though. Even if it isn’t perfect I’m glad the league is trying to do something about it

Yeah, so Joel is done for the season according to reports. I really hate seeing this but he's always been made of glass, I guess

I heard about the knee surgery but didn't see anywhere that his season is done...? Where are you seeing it?

After watching the 6ers get stuffed on home court by the Warriors in a game where Curry scored 9, 4 weeks will be the maximum the team management will give Embiid before he has to suit up again

I don't think it's possible to get him but I'd soooo love Gallo back. Was my favourite Nugget for a few years before we traded him.
