  1. Is Ben Simmons the real deal? The dude has a high basketball IQ. Knows when to pass and when to slash. His deterrent is that he has no mid to long range jump shot --- but he can slash. At this early, color commentators are already saying that he is the next complete rookie after Oscar Robertson and Lebron James. But I wonder if teams will clog the lane, would he be able to still finish or use the court vision to pass the ball? But he is tall for his position. I think he will still be able to see the court clearly even if teams gonna double team him.

     

    Barring injuries, it seems that Simmons and Embiid are the next coming of Magic and the Captain (Kareem). Most especially if Big Ben develops an outside jumper.

    i think so .. ben has very very good handles for a 6-10 player. He has good court vision, we all know shooting can be improved (Lebron is a good example); teams have tried to clog the lane and he just passes to a wing guy (Covington) and sometime embiid on the outside ..

  2. i lost faith in the FO when they traded MCW. this team couldnt go against Globalport back in 2012, the got MCW in 2013 and did a coupke of decent seasons then they threw him out. Damn stupid move.

    Embid shows potential but hopefully he doesnt become another Greg Oden na bagito palang puro injury na.

    havent seen Fultz in action yet.

    wheres MCW now tho?

     

    ok three years out, mcw is riding the bench, sixers will get the Lakers first round pick next year w no protection (a good chance of a lottery pick) .. still a bad trade?

    i mean this year

    reddick

  3.  

    Really? Too bad. He was great for the Bucks last year. That's the reason why he won Rookie of the Year award. Actually he's projected to be the Bucks starting PG for this upcoming season. :)

    dont ring a bell..

  4. im in the states. if Ingress is available there same maps apply in PoGo, for pokestops and pokegyms .. residential areas dont have much pokemons, theyre usualy in high traffic areas

  5. be prepared for battery death, app freezes and if using ios you have to disable LTE settings ... otherwise its good. if you get an eevee naming it sparky evolves it to jolteon, rainer you get a vaporeon, pyro you get a flareon ..

    According to NFL.com, this is their rating basis....

     

    Grade Title

    9.00-10 Once-in-lifetime player

    8.00-9.00 Perennial All-Pro

    7.50-7.99 Future All-Pro

    7.00-7.49 Pro Bowl to All-Pro Ability

    6.50-6.99 Good NFL Starter with Pro Bowl Potential

    6.00-6.49 Chance to become good NFL starter

    5.70-5.99 Could become early NFL starter

     

    Think of it as their initial impressions....honestly, I don't believe this....after all....look what happened to Johnny Manziel.

    the grades are based on film, college performance, combine scores, workouts and a writen test (wonderlic i think)

     

    but still a hit and miss process. most if not all teams employ sports psychologist to gauge mental state/toughness ...

    manziell is an outlier, his performance and measurables were good, but his mental state of mind is apparently bad. hes out of the league not because of bad play but bec of what hapened outside of football... like alcoholism, domestic abuse

  7. Maybe the Lakers will now bring in Sam Hinkie to start "The Process" in L.A. :lol:

     

    They should, if not him some other GM w background in advanced analytics, Lakers are notorious for being the most old fashioned in the NBA when it comes to talent evaluation. Theyre banking on free agents lured by the Purple and Gold.

  8. Everyone be talking about the lakers gettin Simmons or Ingram, but what about Buddy Hield? He lit up the tourney. What do you guys think?

    Hield isnt an efficient scorer, he will score 38 pts on 20 shots ...

  9. the PG wasnt an issue, maybe they shouldve kept Ish SMith, but the goal is to develop new talent

    TJ wasnt so bad, he lead rookies in assists

    big problem was Okafor getting into fights that forced the ownership to talk to Jerry

  10. same GM that drafted Bargnani over Aldridge

    same GM who couldnt get a job if not for his dad pushing out Hinkie

    but even if Brian is inept, sixers are in a position to get better,3/4 first round picks, and huge cap room should be enough thanks to Sam

     

    wolves had 2 first overall picks playing for them (Wiggins and KAT), Rubio was healthy all year and Lavine is decent

  11. i'll agree. if there is one player who wants the ball in his hands when the game is on the line, it is kobe. you could see the frustration on kobe's face after the game.

    the more the Lakers rely on Kobe the slower the team can develop into a real contender, Kobe is ending his career.. the Lakers need to face the fact that Kobe wont be here forever .. he chucks up 24 shots per game .. maybe share some of those with DAR who they drafted really high and is now being considered a bust
