Good Game Clippers Fans!
Kawhi coming back will be great for y'all.

Draymond needs to make free throws and they gotta move around more if you insist on getting steph off the ball which again makes no sense.

Wiggins went WIGGINS lol
missed every key shot including every open ass layup
Only reason game was close because of fucking turnovers :smh: should have been a fucking blow out...

Im all for player empowerment but you can't just sign an extension and then demand a trade a season later.

Yes you can, he’s not the first player to do it. Paul George did it with OKC.




You saw that Kelce clip I posted....



Kelce’s right, but at some point we have to call a spade a spade.

Yes Ben’s a bitch, but by keep calling him a bitch and blaming it all on him means you’re missing out on what happened.

The Sixers organization deserve just as much blame or more.

Ben got a coach fired and Jimmy run out of town because of his lack of shooting, lack of growth and how the Sixers didn’t make him accountable.

In year one with Ben on the court, it was Ben’s fault.

In year two, three and four. That’s the Sixers fault. They didn’t take or make the necessary steps to hold a player accountable and require him to make the necessary steps to make the team better.

If you have a starting point guard that doesn’t drive to the basket, refuses to drive to the basket.

Are you gonna allow him to play on your team for four years without making him drive? :roflmao:

Daryl Morey: 76ers Won't Trade Ben Simmons for 'Role Players,' Willing to Wait on Deal
MADELINE COLEMAN

Daryl Morey, the president of basketball operations for the 76ers, called Ben Simmons "a difference making player," on Philly sports radio 97.5 The Fanatic, adding that he's willing to wait on a deal despite the recent drama.
"Right now if we traded Ben Simmons like he wants, all we would get back is role players, and that would make no sense," Morey said, per a tweet from the station. "I would be prepared to strap in because it will take awhile."
The comments come after coach Doc Rivers threw Simmons out of practice earlier this week, leading to the eventual suspension for the team's season opener, according to Sports Illustrated's Chris Mannix. ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski first reported news of Rivers removing Simmons from practice. According to The Athletic's Shams Charania, Rivers asked Simmons to join a defensive drill today multiple times but Simmons refused and Rivers told him to "go home."
Sixers star center Joel Embiid later offered points of criticism for his teammate on Tuesday.

"We don't get paid to come out here and try to babysit somebody," Embiid said. "That's not our job."

Simmons then showed up to, and departed, the team's practice facility Thursday without taking part in a previously scheduled individual workout, according to Wojnarowski. He reportedly described back tightness to Philadelphia staff members and received treatment. But, he was then cleared to workout following treatment.

Both Rivers and Morey confirmed to reporters that Simmons requested a trade from the team this offseason. He practiced for the first time on Sunday after missing the first two weeks of training camp.
Per The Athletic, Simmons routinely ignored 76ers staff since rejoining the team and engaged more with the G League coaches than his own.

Former NBA guard Delonte West was arrested on Tuesday night following an encounter with Boynton Beach, Fla. police, according to WPTV's Scott Sutton.
Per a case report obtained by WPTV, West was screaming profanities and banging on the glass doors of the police department's lobby while holding an open can of Icehouse beer and an open bottle of Mango Vodka.
West, per the report obtained by WTPV, eventually put the drinks on the sidewalk but began to place his hands inside the waistband of his pants in front of officers. One officer later initialized a Taser on West.
The police report reportedly said West smelled of alcohol and his speech was slowed and slurred. When they tried to arrest him, per the police report, he "continued to be belligerent and screaming profanities and obscure rants."

West is reportedly facing charges of resisting an officer without violence, disorderly intoxication and having an open container. He was released on bail early Wednesday morning.

In 2015, West disclosed that he had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2008. In the past, he has struggled with substance abuse and homelessness.
Last January, it was reported that West had started working at the rehab facility he attended in Florida.

After being selected by the Celtics in the first round of the 2004 NBA draft, West played for four teams during his eight years in the league. He spent the first three years of his career in Boston, becoming a fan favorite before being traded as part of the package that brought Ray Allen to the Celtics in 2007.
He last appeared with the Mavericks in 2011–12.
