@jayballer67 Love me some Embiid. Only oad that captivated me. He would never have made it in the 90s nba though. Just too fragile. He’s playing in the correct era for his body. Think he will win mvp this year or did joker get it again?
not sure if they have said yet or not. -dam has went to the floor 3 times landing on his back. That’s a lot of body to be hittin the floor. - -I like me some Maxey
-
Jo Jo on the floor FIVE TIMES in the 1st half

just heard at half time - ya Jo Jo was the MVP
-
@jayballer67 That’s awesome!!!
-
That has to be one of the strangest/weirdest games I’ve seen. - - sixers up by 11 at half fall behind and play from behind most the 2nd half - - -Dam Jo Jo either falls/or gets hit and knocked to the floor NINE TIMES in the game. Maxey was HUGE. - - jO jO had a rough game REALLY physical. Jo Jo comes close to being ejected early for kicking between the legs. - - - -Then Hardin DOES get ejected on aa some what questionable call flagrant 2 - Jo ends up with only 14 points and 10 rebounds - but ONE HUGE block right at the end of the game HUGE -HUGE block - -Sixers fight through go up 3-0
-
Jo , Jo out for tomorrow’s game - -no surprise there after being on the floor so much last night with his back. - Just hope he is a go the next game

He’s not out because of his back though, he’s out with a sprained knee.

Christan doing what Christan does - - making three’s & playing with that edge

Oh , Ok – ya I saw last night he was having trouble with Knee too. That’s not good . He had a rough night really physical last night
That’s worse might take a little more time
-
Super cool to watch Braun getting significant playing time in the 2nd half of this season. His lack of playing time the first half of the season had me a little worried he might have made a mistake coming out early, but he’s clearly proving he belongs and playing for a team headed for the league semis it looks like.
-
Twitterverse is lauding Cristian for his defense on Durant.
-
Hmmm… Where’d he learn to play that kind of defense??
-
Check out Braun’s steal and dunk on a disinterested Durant from last night’s game. Great play!
-
-
@HoraceZontal I was amazed at how excited the crowd got, as well as the announcers going full Rock Chalk mode on the replay!
-
That was great! It’s a shame (and I suppose a statement about Durant) that Durant didn’t try to contest it. I would have loved to see how that turned out.
-
Could be heading to a semifinal round with a Jayhawk on each team. Braun, Grimes, Joel and Wiggins all still in it. 6ers just frittered away a lead laying over dead in last four minutes. They’ll have to win game 7 in Boston to make it.

they had multiple chances late in the game when they was up two. Think like 4 straight trips 2 point lead with the ball an couldn’t do anything. I think they just handed the series to the Celtics just don’t think they are winnin a game 7 at Boston
-
Dam , that’s our boy. -All Christan knows how to do is Championships. - - Won three State titles in High Schol, , was cut his freshman yr, won titles in his Soph , Jr , & Sr years. – First yr at College was Covid yr --Then won Jr year & now has a chance to win NBA Championship in his 1st yr. Like he said that would be like 5 Championships in 7 years.
That ain’t to bad, - I 5 out of 7 – I don’t car who you are, that’s pretty god stuff right there as Larry the Cable Guy says lol
-
CB GOING WILD! Looking GREAT!
-
CB playing like a B-----!
-
That word you keep saying. I do not think it means what you think it means.
-
-
Go, CB…GO! LOL.
-
Tried to watch it. Enjoyed the third quarter. turned into a flop fest in the 4th quarter, so I’ll check back on the NBA in 5 years.
Go, CB though. Don’t be a flopper.
-
Ended up winning 2.00.
-
-
Christan , - -Christan . Look at you - -, you a Baller 10 points in 13 minutes - -With a steal and the flush - -that’s our boy
-
CB kicking A$$
-
Christan just eatin them up takin over 15 points getting a lot of minutes – Just Ballin

I’ve been hyped for CB all year since I live in Colorado. Even went to Game 1 of the WCF against LA and bought a CB jersey.
I really didn’t think he could do this though. As a rookie on this stage.

I think CB has gotten more opportunity than Och this season. Braun has certainly earned every minute he’s played this season though. Malone doesn’t normally plays rookies a lot/at all.
-
Jokic with some praise for Braun in the post game interview.
-
Awesome game for Christian!
-
7-8? Wow!

That’s true - sure hope Och gets bettter opportunity next yr. – The announcers just was all over about CB and how his grit and smart decisions during games. I love his edge, got that kind of don’t screw with me attitude in a game, constant hustle that’s our boy. I think he is itching himself into a solid role at Denver
-
Ochi killed it end of the year. He just didn’t get playing time early. Awesome to see CBs game!
-
CB’s offensive stats were impressive, but he was also often guarding Jimmy Butler. His defense was equally impressive.
-
CB’s story is just unbelievable. Remembering him as a freshman to where he was when left here was a huge jump. Easily one of Self and Cos best developments. I honestly didn’t know if he’d see the floor a ton early his career. Not to take anything away from the Ochai’s and Mason type players but you could always see their athleticism.
-
@kjayhawks 22nd ranked SF in his 2019 class according to rivals. good stuff.
-
I remember redshirt chatter before 19-20. How far we’ve come
-
Well Christan got a chance for ANOTHE Championship tonight. - Go get em buddy
-
@jayballer67 Tomorrow

@jayballer67 Tomorrow
Ya thanks guy, I just saw that, don’t know what I was thinking of lol. Was reedy to kick back and watch some hoops- - - Mercy
-
Christian Braun is just the 5th player to ever win an NCAA title and NBA title in back to back seasons. And the 34th player to ever win an NCAA and NBA title.
-
Bill Russell, Magic Johnson, Henry Bibby, and Billy Thompson are the only 4 other players to win an NCAA and NBA title in back to back seasons.
-
Pretty good company!
-
Also impressive that he logged 24 minutes in the deciding game…
