Something happen during the game?

Embiid yammed on Westbrook earlier in this game. But this beef started back in the first game they played this year..When Embiid was talking ish to Steven Adams when he fouled out and Westbrook went back at Embiid when OKC pulled out the W in triple OT.

The Thunder aint bullshittin.

The Thunder aint bullshittin.

So they aren't going to show that he shot 33 times to get 37 points? Kyrie and Steph showed how well efficiency works Saturday night.

That's one of the things Embiid said about Russ last time they played that got this shit started.

russ always been a volume scorer. he don't have that soft touch like kyrie and steph . embid and melo were yapping at each other too. embid talks the talk and walks it . either way nice lil rivalry building

True
Embid said he scored a lot of points but took a lot of shots and he wished he could take that many shots

Thate a little exaggerated to be honest
Old players love to say that they weren't friends but then we find out they were damn near blood brothers lol.
Nobody goes soft at ppl on the court they just friends off the court and even so some aren't friends off or on
And you can tell by the way players really go at certain cats
Embid is all world shit talker it's great for the game but for the past 5 years the nba has been the pettiest league in sports

The Pistons are shopping Avery Bradley. He's a good defender and he a better scorer. I'd make an offer.

 

[M.H.C.]

Russ is a beast. An inefficient beast but a beast nonetheless.

Pistons gave up too much.

.....dammit!

@BAG , dont want to argue with you Dude, just asking a question. I vaguely remember last week you talking about the Clippers trading these same players to the Cavs for IT, TT and Love, was it?!?! What happened to that word on the street bruh?

Nah they soft Bruh, they may play 'hard', but for the most parts dudes walk on egg shells with each other as to not 'offend' anyone. Different dynamic now man, thats why we really don't have any TRUE rivalries anymore. Thats why last years beef with Russell and KD was such a HUGE story, and why Embiid starting shit with damn near everybody is so refreshing... Time to bring an 'edge' back to the game bruh... Too soft in my opinion...

did they?? I dont know about that one...

 

[IT IS WHAT IT IS]

Word on the street is the Cavs are in talks with the Knicks to move TT and another player to the Knicks for Joakim Noah and Ron Baker. Might be a good look for the Cavs actually

 

[jack walsh13]

did they?? I dont know about that one...

No question they did. 1st round and a second round pick in a deep draft hell yeah that's too much.

 

[Rollie_Fingaz]

 

[Day_Carver]

which draft though?? and draft picks arent guaranteed; the players they gave up is blah; They get Blake for a protected 1st and and 2nd; Thats not that much for an Allstar player

Noah has to be healthy for this to pay off. He would provide more energy than TT but the Cavs still get no scoring at that position. I also wonder how the Cavs fans going to take to him after his epic trashing of the city.

For a 7th, 8th seed and swept in the 1st round......Nah. Too much.

I feel ya bro, but if they get 7th or 8th seed; those draft picks arent that high...

 

[jack walsh13]

That's true. Wouldn't have threw them away for Blake though. I just wouldn't.
