Jimmy Butler is a good player he just hates playing and living where there is cold weather. He’s a tropical flower that needs the sunshine.

Also he's a vacuous headcase so south Florida is perfect for him.

Y'all can stopping talking about the old look Sixers now. Brett Brown finally made the obvious move and took Horford out of the starting lineup.

The new look Sixers are unstoppable.

The second half of the season 6th man of the year race is heating up between Buddy Buckets and Al Horford.

Probably because the trainers make doing it correctly a point of emphasis and he doesn't want to be yelled at for doing it wrong. lol

they have a pretty big splits on 3pt% and 3pt% allowed home/away. normal splits are 36/35 or something and theirs are like 37/33. Although tonight they allowed 45 and shot 29

It's so weird, I read this complaint on twitter all the time by people who have presumably watched basketball before and have heard of Michael Jordan and Shaq and Wilt, yet still react as if good players have never drawn fouls before. As if it's entirely the ballhandler's decision whether to get fouled out not (and he should choose to not get fouled) (out of pity for the defense, I guess?)

One of these years one person who dislikes watching James Harden's game will be convinced that actually it's entertaining and good, and I respect the Harden boosters for putting in the work to make that happen

Even if they argue Harden is hunting fouls, he's still getting fouled. Yeah he flops too, but so does everyone else
