They want too push ESPN and them 🤡 down our face I really don't care for sports TV like ESPN I just watch sports but I can do without auntie Shay buck dancing smith for real.
Shoutout AD! The other big man Shaq always seems to forget that is top 3 in MVP ranking and plays both ends on an elite level, dominating the league since he’s not in the elite big man conversation
Kenny Atkins is a great coach. He build Brooklyn Nets. When KD and Kyrie came. They didn't like to be coached. So he was out. I'm glad he got his second chance. And players their want to be coached.
Shaq was right if you can shoot threes and it's going in why not shoot more? It only affects the team in a negative way if you keep missing and keep shooting. KAT has the 3pt FG percentage to back that up
At this point in time, I’ll take Jokic on any given day over Embiid. Statistically Embiid might be the better player, but as of 2024 he puts his needs over the Team’s needs.
Charles is kinda tweaking. It absolutely does matter that Towns’s 3s go in. If you’re a 54% 3-point shooter, then you should be taking those shots regardless of your size. I really don’t understand why Chuck has such a delusional vendetta against his play when it’s so efficient rn
Because KAT's 3's have also failed him in the past and then he still refuses to play hard in the paint. He needs to do both. Stretch the lane wide open when a big is on him and when a forward is on him barrel through him to the rim.
When Chuck is talking about how KAT shouldn't shoot 3's just because some go in, he's using a form of Analytics he claims to hate so much. He's using probability. He's making an analysis based on probability.
Good point by chuck (tho i disagree on that ‘it doesn’t matter), but he’s right that if something works doesn’t mean its successful. KAT shooting 3s are giving them points but they are wasting his talent, I feel like scoring will be more efficient if he use his height instead and utilize the rest of the team.
I'm an old school guy. I grew up watching Chuck play and all the great back to the basket centers. He's wrong about KAT shooting 3's. If you have a good open 3 point shot, and you're a good shooter, you have to take the shot. I used to love post play. Now when I watch AD, who is one of, if not the only back to the basket players left in the NBA, I see how much it slows the game down. There isn't much room for anyone else to do anything other than shoot a spot up 3, and that's IF the pass can get to them, and give them enough time to shoot before being contested. I watch the Lakers get out paced by teams because they play slow post up play. AD went out late in the third against the Raptors in the last game and them team went on a run. AD was having a great game. But being able to speed the game up, move the ball around, it gets everyone else engaged and the defense has to be aware of all angles of attack, not just focus in on the one guy taking his time and cutting him off with a double team or making him take a a really tough shot. AD makes some great tough post shots, but when those shots don't go in, or he can't get a good shot off, that team has no other options in those post up situations. There is a lot of bullshit about modern NBA narrative. Being able to shoot and space the floor isn't bullshit. It's good for the game.
I don't see it as take it inside or shoot the 3. It's all about shot selection. There was 2 seconds on the clock, the guy guarding him was a foot shorter than him, he's one of the best shooters in the game. There is literally NO reality that shooting the 3 in that situation is a bad shot.. Turning around, taking 5 to 7 seconds to back the guy into the post from the 3 point line, even if there was more time on the clock to do it, now a double team comes over. Maybe you make the pass and get it to a wide open shooter. Hopefully that guys as good a shooter as KAT, hopefully the defense doesn't close out on him and block his shot or rush him into taking a bad contested 3 point shot. I'm not against playing in the post. I'm against forcing post shots in ways that kills the offense, just like I'm against forcing up bad contested 3's in order to say you're a volume shooter. Move the ball around, draw the defense out of position, then Kat can get an open 3, a lob in the dunker spot, or slide into the post for a quick pass and he scores. But this forcing the ball into the post and killing the pace of the game just because the guy guarding you is smaller is out dated and as an old school NBA fan, I can admit that and admit that the game is better with modern ball movement. There is a lot of modern NBA bullshit today. But that isn't part of it.
Yeah Charles got caught making a weak point and tried to word salad his way out of it. KAT is a 54% 3-pt shooter rn, so a good defender like Jrue is absolutely not gonna be happy if he gives Towns an easy look from the line
He’s saying that it works for now but down the road you can’t bank success on it. When that jumpshot isn’t hitting one game and he keeps shooting like it was then he will shoot then out the game
@shootthejay7002 yeah but doesn’t that apply to any shooter? If your best shooter suddenly goes cold, then you’re likely to lose. That’s how it was for the rockets in the finals. Brunson has shot the Knicks out of games before, but he just comes back and has a good shooting night the next game. That’s just life
Shaq be so petty sometimes. I understood what Charles meant when he said KAT should be utilizing his size more against smaller defenders but Shaq just wanna argue with Chuck for no reason
Comical. The max an NBA player plays per week is 3 hrs!!! Minutes restriction is insane. The entire regular NBA season is only 61hrs!!! Let that sink in. That’s not even two 40 hr work weeks and they wanna take game off for load management.
To be clear most player rest is organizationally mandated. There seem to be a few bad apples among the players or their own medical staffs, but don’t confuse the real issue.
@rubaiyat300 star players have all the power. If they wanted to play they'll play. Is it organizationally mandated when they get coaches fired and players traded?
I do not see a world where embiid will ever win a championship not playing back to back games in the regular season. If he can't survive playing back to back in the regular season, how is he supposed to fair in a post season?

Yeah Charles got caught making a weak point and tried to word salad his way out of it. KAT is a 54% 3-pt shooter rn, so a good defender like Jrue is absolutely not gonna be happy if he gives Towns an easy look from the line
He’s saying that it works for now but down the road you can’t bank success on it. When that jumpshot isn’t hitting one game and he keeps shooting like it was then he will shoot then out the game
@shootthejay7002 yeah but doesn’t that apply to any shooter? If your best shooter suddenly goes cold, then you’re likely to lose. That’s how it was for the rockets in the finals. Brunson has shot the Knicks out of games before, but he just comes back and has a good shooting night the next game. That’s just life
Isn't TNT supposed to be you know cancelled? I am confused cause this is the only pure NBA show that really give legit opinion.
2025
Man hopefully this dude and PG13 can stay healthy because rn Sixers look horrible
Shaq be so petty sometimes. I understood what Charles meant when he said KAT should be utilizing his size more against smaller defenders but Shaq just wanna argue with Chuck for no reason
Chuck is right, fuckin Thibs needs to use the bench more. I’m sick of his shyt!!!
Now do an injury report on everyone Embiid injured….
You guys are talking about gold medals and I am talking about Stephanie….
Eff Embiid chants incoming 😂
Comical. The max an NBA player plays per week is 3 hrs!!! Minutes restriction is insane. The entire regular NBA season is only 61hrs!!! Let that sink in. That’s not even two 40 hr work weeks and they wanna take game off for load management.
To be clear most player rest is organizationally mandated. There seem to be a few bad apples among the players or their own medical staffs, but don’t confuse the real issue.
@rubaiyat300 star players have all the power. If they wanted to play they'll play. Is it organizationally mandated when they get coaches fired and players traded?
Shaq’s a fool
Jokic 38/15/15…LMAO. Not even close
"Great shape"
Can’t believe people actually ever took embid seriously as a franchise player. He’s never been THAT guy and never will be.
When the Team pushes a player is in great shape don’t believe them.
Lol shaq just wants tpo argue with chuck, he has said the same thing chuck said about a lot of big men.
Barkley cut off Shaq during his time to talk and hijacked his turn
Bro watching him play tonight he needs a few more months, that knee can't take any sudden turn imo it's a disaster waiting to happen
I do not see a world where embiid will ever win a championship not playing back to back games in the regular season. If he can't survive playing back to back in the regular season, how is he supposed to fair in a post season?
What is in the water in Philly where these players (Simmons, Embiid) become so soft?
I wonder who will play more games Embid or George 50games each.
he throw his entire team under the bus
that moment is the lowest ever
Embiid is still injured. Them boys were running by him like he was "pop pop" playing with his grandchildren 😅.
Jrue be about 6' 4"-5
lmao, shaq is delusional comparing Embid to Joker.
Why AI got Knicks colors on? 😭
I know he got an Astros hat on, but damn why tonight 💀
Why does Shaq always sound like he needs to clear his throat
Shaqs insecurities pt. 3252
Shaq didn’t interact with Kareem, D Howard or Joel. Sounds like a jealous big man hater. 😢
Jrue Holiday is definitely not 6'1 lol.
They reported deserve every bit of that
"Load management" seems pointless if you're still playing 45 minutes a game
Load management happens with TNT MATH. ASK CHUCK
Shaq so insecure
