Thornton has always been the kind of player that will light up a scoreboard one night and then come out and shoot 25% from the field the next night. Will play terrible defense, either way.

The thing is, if he's not hot he's gonna sit behind Anderson and AK for the rest of the game.
 
If he is hot, he's worth having on the floor with the second unit.

Rondo was the only guy who played 30+ minutes today in the Celts/Dubs game...for both teams


God I hope we get Wiggins/Parker/Embiid

They have Nerlens Noel; they would take Wiggins

Who cares if you have Nerlens Noel? Embiid is the best player, take him.

It's funny though, because our of the 4 worst teams, only Boston really needs that defensive center.

And I don't even really want him lol. I don't love his offensive potential really. While the Embiid/Sullinger low post would be filthy, we are still gonna be a Top 7 pick next year

Because they need a SF...

Sometimes I wonder about you. First the Exum over Parker comment, now this. If you have a hole at SF, and you have a 20 year old shot blocking C who was a top prospect in last years draft, you don't select a C. That's not how you build a franchise

You need to cool it with the Sullinger stuff. You're centering Kevin Love deals around him, talking about a low post including him being filthy. The dude at best, is the first big off the bench on a good team. He has literally no upside in his game left.

A center is a lot harder to find than a SF, and Embiid has the potential to be the best center in the league.
 
And the Exum over Parker thing is me just not having that high of an opinion of Parker. I don't see it with him.

thats part of it though

Signing no names, trading your best player and cutting his return, trading hawes for henry sims, sitting nerlens when he could probably play

And for the record, I know I'm dumb when I say I don't like Parker. I wasn't even sold on Durant during the draft.
