      Imagine if Jordan got drafted at 45th overall today just because he played 3 years in college. That scout would be banned from basketball worldwide. These modern scouts are the epitome of incompetent. I know Kobe was drafted late for being too young, but why would you bet your future on a scrawny just barely 18 year old (Giannis is a genetic unicorn the Bucks scouts at the time were still trash).

      I see lots of -players doing poorly when asked to carry a load. Steph curry is shooting 38% in december. Hardens best play is hitting the open shooter. They just need more 3 point shooters. Powell and coffey do fine but they miss Kawi's 40%+ shooting from 3. Take Embiid out and maxey shoots poorly. Paul george is scoring 16ppg because 76ers lack floor spacing with Embiid out.

    Everybody gets better around james harden. He just makes others better. RIght now the clippers have no all stars from last year and yet, they are 17-13 beating the grizzlies. If Kawi comes back they could make some noise but Im not holding my breath. Paul GEorge on the other hand doesnt make others better. Powell has always been an accurate shooter, he now is getting lots of touches when the defense collapses around harden. Powell is getting more shots than james because that is often what james thinks is the best shot.

    I didn't understand why everyone was so down on them at the start of the season. They have put together a squad of good defenders, Norm Powell was underrated for years, Harden is still a good player, and Ty Lue is a great coach. Without PG, they were unlikely to compete for top spot in the conference, but they certainly looked like a team that could compete.
    Who knows, maybe they finally get some injury luck with Kwahi this play-offs.

They Have The Depth And A Solid Bench, I Think They Should Trade For Someone That Can Give Them Push Offensively Like John Collins & Collin Sexton In Utah Thats Trying To Tank Or Maybe Even Zach LaVine & Nikola Vucevic Who The Bulls Are Trying To Trade.
