@jack walsh13 good game. Getting back home definitely helped your supporting cast
Ya know man I've always said this...........it's just amazing to me how it seems guys lose focus and don't know how to play basketball on the road in the playoffs. Like night and day

Is your end goal as a fan to see the team fail so Doc can be fired?

Who do you think should replace Doc?

Who do you think will replace Doc?

Regardless of who's coaching the team, do you think the team has the make up to win a championship as currently built?

Glenn has to go. He's a fuckin dumbass. I want Dave Joerger to take over as coach. I think that would be the right thing but since it probably is the Sixers won't do it. :smh:

Phoenix is in this game for CP3 looking like he's playing drunk and Crowder being the leading scorer

Ayton doesn't get enough shots. I wonder if he wants to go to another team where he would be more featured. It's cost him money.

KAT makes $30 something a year, and Rudy is going to make over $40

Suns got a big decision to make with Ayton. He know he worth more than he is going to get. You think they’ll give up supermax?

I don't know bro, they don't even run plays for him

Chris Paul took less

They paid Bridges

but they have Cam and Ayton, and then right after that Booker will probably be eligible for a max

I think it depends if they win this year or get to the finals. If they lose to Golden State/Memphis I can't see them running it back.

I was gonna talk shit about Ayton and say he’s not that good but he’s a double double guy.

Fuck it I’ma say it, he’s not that good! That muthafucka just tall and he’s definitely not a supermax player.

Damn, that’s what should’ve been shown but the media like to portray us in a negative light. :smh:


Thank you for this

I been arguing FOREVER that folk have no damn idea through FULL CONTEXT of that little soundbite they been running for decades.

the media, the fourth estate is OBVIOUSLY a degraded shell of itself..

they have lost their way and the public has suffered greatly because of it..

they USE reality TV, the internet and social media as an EXCUSE for ignoring the integrity that journalism ONCE had...

look at this clip...

if you read the ENTIRE transcript you see that Iverson was making a MUCH BIGGER POINT

Iverson is actually complaining about Coach Brown going PUBLIC with his missing practice and he actually says practice is IMPORTANT...

and he even says something that Jordan has been CRITICIZED for by Phil Jackson himself ...

Iverson mentions that practicing with his teammates will make them a better team but wont make them better individually (I disagree myself) but Jordan was famous for using practice to totally DEMORALIZE his teammates and this effected play on the court...

they need to understand how to play with him OUT OF THE LINE UP too...

he mentions that HIS game is not effected if his teammates are unavailable and wouldn't use it as an excuse...

forget if you agree or not...he has been MISREPRESENTED...

But the MEDIA decided to take a soundbite and run with it..

lets not forget digitally removing Iverson's tattoos and darkening OJ's skin



"Practice" Press Conference

Reporter: Could you be clear about your practicing habits since we can't see you practice?

AI: Anybody tell you that I missed practice... If, If, if a Coach say I missed practice, and y'all hear it, then that's that.

I mean, I might have missed one practice this year but if, if somebody say he doesn't come to practice, it could be one practice. Out of all the practices this year, that's enough... that's enough to get a whole lot started. I told Coach Brown that you don't have to give the people of Philadelphia a reason to think about trading me or anything like that. If you trade somebody, you trade them to make the team better...simple as that. I'm cool with that. I'm all about that. The people in Philadelphia deserve to have a winner. It's simple as that. It goes further than that ...

Reporter: So you and coach Brown got caught up on Saturday about practice?

AI: If I can't practice, I can't practice man. If I'm hurt, I'm hurt. I mean ... simple as that. It aint about that... I mean its... Its not about that... At all. You know what I'm saying I mean...

But its...its easy ... to, to talk about... It's easy to sum it up when you're just talking about practice. We're sitting in here, and I'm supposed to be the franchise player, and we in here talking about practice. I mean, listen, we're talking about practice, not a game, not a game, not a game, we talking about practice. Not a game. Not, not ... Not the game that I go out there and die for and play every game like it's my last. Not the game, but we're talking about practice, man. I mean, how silly is that? ...

And we talking about practice.
I know I supposed to be there. I know I'm supposed to lead by example... I know that... And i'm not.. I'm not shoving it aside, you know, like it don't mean anything. I know it's important, I do. I honestly do...

But we're talking about practice man. What are we talking about? Practice? We're talking about practice, man. (laughter from the media crowd) We're talking about practice. We're talking about practice. We aint talking about the game.(more laughter) We're talking about practice, man.
When you come to the arena, and you see me play, you see me play don't you? You've seen me give everything I've got, right?
But we're talking about practice right now. We talking about pr... (Interrupted)

Reporter: But it's an issue that your coach continues to raise?

AI: Man look, I hear you... it's funny to me too, I mean it's strange... it's strange to me too, but we're talking about practice man, we're not even talking about the game... the actual game, when it matters... We're talking about practice ...

Reporter: Is it possible that if you practiced, you would make your teammates better?

AI: How the hell can I make my teammates better by practicing?

I'd say he's right behind the tier of Joker and Embiid

He does it defensively also and unlike Rudy doesn't get played off the floor in small lineups

He gets 17 and 10 being an after thought in only around 30 minutes a game
