My Overview:

Joel Embiid playing exclusively in the post exposed one of Atlanta’s major weaknesses! This is the second time this year were the opposing center had a career night against y’all. 👇🏽

NIKOLA JOKIC VS ATLANTA HAWKS (1-6-20)

The Philadelphia 76ers unleashed their beast. Atlanta started double teaming Joel Embiid. But that didn’t work. He would kick it out to shooters. Also players were able to slash to the rim because of clear driving lanes created by Joel Embiid. Or they would pass the ball back to Embiid for a repost. I believe that was the game plan going into last night’s game. A formula for success in my opinion! Now play like this against a good team.

For the Sixers going forward, will they continue with this formula of using Joel Embiid more in the post?

Injury:

Ben Simmons (Out indefinitely)

NBA (bballscholar) Terminology :

Repost– This is when a player in the post passes it out to a wing player. Then the post player can now establish a deeper post position. The wing player then passes it back to the post player as he has deeper post position with a 1 on 1 match up.

4. Vince Carter

5. Damian Lillard

6. Anthony Davis

7. Kemba Walker

9. Devin Booker

I believe if you are capable of playing at least 10+ years in the nba. That alone is a nice accomplishment of durability. Your body has so many years it can perform at a high level.

EAST RESERVES:

WEST RESERVES:

WEST > EAST

THE WEST ON PAPER LOOKS LIKE THE BETTER TEAM. ALSO THEY HAVE THE MORE EXCITING PLAYERS TO WATCH.

I AM DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE A LOT OF PLAYERS THAT I WANTED TO SEE DID NOT MAKE THIS YEARS ALL STAR GAME.

MY BELIEF ON THE BIGGEST ALL STAR SNUB:

EAST BIGGEST SNUB:

BRADLEY BEAL

WEST BIGGEST SNUB:

DEVIN BOOKER

NBA ALL STAR FACTS:

WHICH PLAYER DID YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE ALL STAR GAME?

I PERSONALLY WANTED TO SEE DERRICK ROSE IN THE ALL STAR GAME. I BELIEVE THE FANS WOULD OF WANTED HIM OVER KYLE LOWRY. BUT THAT IS JUST MY OPINION. KYLE LOWRY’S TEAM IS 2ND IN THE EAST, SO THAT IS WHY HE WAS REWARDED.

MY THOUGHTS:

NOT VERY IMPRESSED BY BOTH PLAYERS LOW SHOOTING WOOS BUT THEY HAD THE BALL IN THEIR HANDS 90% OF THE TIME. DUE TO THEIR HIGH VOLUME OF SHOOTING I WOULD RATE THEIR PERFORMANCES AS A B-.

TRAE YOUNG HAD THE BETTER GAME BUT JAMES HARDEN LEFT WITH THE WIN. 🤷🏾‍♂️

BY THE WAY IF YOU GUESSED IT , NOT MUCH DEFENSIVE WAS PLAYED IN THIS GAME.

AFTER THIS GAME THIS WILL BECOME A NEW STATISTIC. I BELIEVE PLAYERS WILL WANT TO TOP THIS PERFORMANCE!

bballscholar

THESE TWO PLAYERS ARE HAVING AMAZING STARTS TO THEIR NBA CAREER. WITH THEIR PRODUCTION BOTH PLAYERS SHOULD BE FIRST TIME ALL STARS THIS YEAR.

FACT:

THE ATLANTA HAWKS AND DALLAS MAVERICKS SWAPPED PLAYERS ON DRAFT NIGHT! (ATLANTA ORIGINALLY DRAFTED LUKA DONCIC AND DALLAS DRAFTED TRAE YOUNG.)

WHICH PLAYER DO YOU THINK WILL HAVE THE BETTER CAREER?

AS OF RIGHT NOW: THEIR CATEGORY

LUKA DONCIC = SUPERSTAR LEVEL.

TRAE YOUNG = STAR LEVEL.

HERE ARE THE BEST PLAYS FROM EACH PLAYER DURING THIS NBA SEASON.

TRAE YOUNG – WHERE HE RANKS AMOUNG PG’S

bballscholar

WHERE WOULD YOU RANK TRAE YOUNG AGAINST CURRENT PG’S?

HE HAS SUCH OUTLANDISH STATS. BUT TO ME HE HASN’T EVEN SCRATCHED HIS SURFACE. BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE HE CAN GET A LOT BETTER. HE HAS STEPHEN CURRY POTENTIAL BECAUSE OF HIS DEEP SHOOTING. BUT BECAUSE ATLANTA IS UNDERACHIEVING I HAVEN’T LOST HOPE IN TRAE YOUNG YET. HE IS ONLY 21 AND JUST IN HIS 2ND YEAR OF THE NBA.

RIGHT NOW HE IS TAKING HIS LEARNING LUMPS IN THE NBA. LEARNING HOW TO WIN IS DIFFERENT THEN PUTTING UP CRAZY STATS WITH A “L”. I EXPECTED HIS TEAM TO BE MUCH BETTER THAN WHAT THEY ARE. INDIVIDUALLY HE HAS BEEN GREAT SO FAR THIS SEASON. BUT FOR US TO START TAKING HIM MORE SERIOUS. HE NEEDS TO WIN MORE AND LEAD THE ATLANTA HAWKS TO THE PLAYOFFS!

TEAMS CURRENT RECORD:

6-27 WORST RECORD IN THE LEAGUE.

DO YOU THINK TRAE YOUNG IS AN ALL STAR? OR IS HE PUTTING UP EMPTY STATS ON A BAD TEAM?

LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK.
