Tatum has proven he's Carmelo Anthony lite right now.
Siakam has proven he's a tier below Prime/healthy Darius Miles.

Uh.. this is what you said?

Nobody on this forum has ever said Josh Hart is in the same realm as your lover boy Lillard. Find a quote or get some new content dude

Blazers ain’t even sniff the playoffs all season, move along now. Lakers were championship contenders and just came off big wins over the Bucks and Cippers before the season ended so ctfu


He's legit dumb lol!
I dont get where he came up with the josh hart joke but looks like hes always bringing it up when talking to us :bonk:

Therefore I didn't compare either of them to x player like you and some other person said I did.
I said they were worse versions of those players.
Reading is difficult I understand. I'll try to use small words.

You don't matter enough for me to actually save posts of your garbage.
But I'm just shocked by your response.
Let me guess next you'll say Lonzo Ball is elite defensively right? Lets count the defensive mistakes by Lonzo.

Lakers couldn't even win a ship with GSW and Portland hurt.
Joke of a franchise every since their owner died. Kids too busy infighting.
Talking about regular season wins. FUCKING LOL.


Would you like to talk about championship wins ? :rofl:

1: imagine bringing up age on a ranking of who is a better player. Also a team in the last 3 seasons resting stars while winning chips. Not even gonna bother there.

2: I’m going to assume your literally just trying your little hardest to even think Embiid is on the same planet as Curry. Before he had “all these stars around him,” even though y’all fall Draymond a bum now & Klay was the only offensive star after him before KD, Curry won 2 MVPs, one unanimous in one of the best seasons in the history of the game. & as I said, it is a waste of time for me to throw you out all the advanced stats that Curry is vastly better than Embiid on, so I won’t, this isn’t really an argument I’m going to entertain, Curry is just so much better and the gap is so wide its not even funny. Let me know when Embiid matches anywhere near Curry’s pre KD numbers (since you say he needs stars LOL) , heck let me know when Embiid averages a Value over replacement over 4 ever in his career, BPM over 10, (Embiid can’t get over 6?) Win Shares, Value Added, ANYTHING LOL.. even your “stout defender” can barely hover over +1 DPM 😂😂 please sit down in your fucking corner. Embiid & the Sixers have reached their plateau, you really hated windmills but you guys sure built yourself a luxury one.


& AD argument is also better in every advanced metric, while averaging 28 & 13 last year on BETTER defensive rating. I’m at work but I can do this AD vs Embiid comparison if you’d like.


Curry can't even be the most valuable player on his own team on the biggest stage for any of his rings, how can he claim alpha status? The guy has three rings and zero Finals MVPS rofl. KD came there and was CLEARLY the best player on that team by miles. KD showed them what a REAL superstar is, someone that can dominate the game on both ends of the floor.

Curry can't defend his own shadow. He's an offensive superstar, but not a complete player. Same with Trae Young. If you have to rely on your teammates defending all of the good offensive players on the other team, how can you actually call yourself a complete superstar?


With Curry, you have to actually have good defenders on your team to make up for his deficiencies. He's not a superstar you can build around and expect him to make your team better on both ends, only on one end. 50% of the game. Let me know when he's dominating the game defensively while being the 4th leading scorer in the league like Embiid.

Curry is a ceiling raiser superstar while LBJ/Giannis/Embiid are floor raiser superstars. To a lesser extent I include Embiid due to his durability, because floor raising is typically in regards to your ability to capture a home court seed. It is very rare that a Superstar with a running mate like Simmons is looking at a bottom tier seed (5-8) so I think for now Embiid is on the bubble of Superstar status. It remains to be seen what your own team is going to do with the mess they've made. They could cut ties with BB and try a new coaching approach. They could gut glue guys like Richardson to go after some new pieces. They could even go as drastic as shopping any one of Simmons/Embiid. If they're even able to bring back a CJ McCollum level player + other assets it could be better but again it remains to be seen. There is no debating that what the 76ers have produced so far this year is well under the expectations of a "Superstar tandem" core in their prime. I know you're going to bring up their easier last quarter of the season. In all likelihood the best case scenario would be a 4th seed, destined to be a road dog against Boston in the East Semi-Finals. I'd put my money on the Celtics and I hate both of your teams equally

I thought I could take you serious but your back to the Finals MVP arguments and now I don’t think your trolling I think your actually serious. Ggs bro.

They SHOULD cut ties with BB, the man is not a good coach, you want to talk about bringing a bunch of stars around a person?! Embiid has had 4-5 all stars in the last 3-4 seasons and they couldn’t even get an AT BAT in the show.. Talk about failure..

& even this year, the Bucks are clearly a higher tier above the Sixers & you can argue it would probably be a sweep or 4-1 if they faced.

You literally said that an all-star who was the second best player on a championship team and then carried that team to a better than expected record and would have made the playoffs if they were happening as the best player is a tier below “prime/healthy” Darius Miles, a guy who never made an all-star team and never averaged more than 14 points a game.

And you don’t see the asininity of that comparison.


Again I clearly didn't compare.
Stop struggling to read. I used small words.

Lakers fans always backtracking when they don't get gifted a player.
Shocking.

Again with the inability to read.
I clearly stated the Lakers have been a joke since the owner died and left it to his kids.
Would you like to talk about how many garbage contracts the Lakers have handed out and how many ''superstar'' free agents have rejected the Lakers in free agency under the new owners?
Even Magic Johnson thought he could work with them only to end up crying on television because he resigned.
Lakers are a joke ever since Gerald Hatten Buss died. How many years in a row have they missed the playoffs?
Wait do you know who that is without google?
Lakers couldn't even make it this year with the best two teams in the West injured.
Sad.

They lost to the eventual champs. who they literally played just as well as....we know how that ended....

No other team even remotely challenged the Raptors lol, and there the Sixers were on the road in a game 7 losing on a buzzer beater....



LMAO @ the Bucks sweeping the Sixers though. Are we just going to act like the Sixers didn't absolutely wipe the floor with the Bucks on Christmas day? That series would go 7 for either team to win, because the Sixers don't lose at home, nobody plays better at home than the Sixers therefore they're taking any team in the league to 6 or 7 games in any playoff series. No fucking sweep or gentlemens sweep here, gtfo with that nonsense. The Sixers match up with the Bucks as well as any team in the league, assuming the Sixers are at full strength (which they were not the last time they played missing Simmons). Length, athleticism and the ability to match up defensively. There are a few players in the league that can do the best job at trying to slow Giannis, and a few of them are on the same roster in Philly.
