The thing with Luka is he's thicc, and strong as feck. How many times have you seen a guy just bowl over PJ Tucker 
NBA 2019-2020

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Porzingis has room to improve for sure. In this entire run he has not actually been that impressive, especially in the post. He's still very good on defense and shoots well but with his size he should really be a much, much bigger threat in the post.
I guess fans wanted Kemba, but he wouldn't have worked this well with Luka. Getting guys like Wright, Curry, extending Kleber and DFS was the better choice here. They should be big players in 2021 free agency though, with Luka going into the final year of his rookie scale deal and possibly being a top 5 player in the league already at that point.
The way he goes through the first line of defense is maybe the most impressive thing. He shakes pretty much any defender off like he's the one playing against rookies.The thing with Luka is he's thicc, and strong as feck. How many times have you seen a guy just bowl over PJ Tucker
Going Tuesday against Kawhi, Beverley, George...
Ive been saying it but dam this kid is special. There is an argument to be made that he can very well be the #1 pick in the draft/ Type of PG players would want to play with I have watched a good amount of his games this season but of course I missed by far his best game of the year

Will Sixers ever close out a game

Carmelo sucks don't you know 
A thin Raptors squad played well to be fair. And Gasol was immense. He completely neutralized Embiid.Will Sixers ever close out a game

Raptors were great no doubt. But Sixers have been poor in the 4th quarter for a lot of games now.
Can Pascal Siakam become the MIP again after winning it last season ?
Carmelo sucks don't you know
That was actually first good game from Carmelo. Happy with that.
That's a genuinely good question. His rate of improvement has been crazy and this year he's taken it to another level yet again. Very exciting to watch his development.
Actually they need defense in the worst way, Melo isn't an efficient scorer at all. He's awful by every metric. A total waste of a signing.
Portland are middle of the road offensively, but even worse defensively. Defense is always their issue, they have choked a few games this season because they couldn't get stops.
Melo for MIP.
Started from the bottom, now we're here

Mavs are hopeless under the basket
I can see Kleber getting better and better.
He's almost 28. Came to the league late so will have still room to improve but I don't think he will develop into a post up monster. He'll mainly be a stretch big, which is fine. If they want threat in paint they need to convince Porzingis he's 7'3".
Cips are too damn strong, just keep coming at you like a pack of hounds for the entire game. If these guys remain fit throughout then I can't see anything taking the ring away from them.
Both PG and Kawhi are what one can call the "prototype" for the futuristic basketball player. No weakness in their game. Could guard all positions (A bulky 5 might be difficult) if needed and play in multiple roles offensively. The typical roles of point guard, small forward etc are not as clear as they were before, and I think this traditional categorization will be less used in the future with fewer players having a specialized skillset.
IMO we will see an increased convergence towards 1-3 players and 3-5 players. Players will either be able to operate and guard in the historical 1-3 roles or similarily in the 3-5 roles.
How many players in today's NBA is clearly a one role type of player? Rubio, Korver, Beverly.

There is Teague too but Point Wiggins has been a thing this year which weirdly enough worked.
who is the best scorer in Bulls and are they any good 
Zach LaVine and no.who is the best scorer in Bulls and are they any good
Cheers, should go over 22 against warriors i reckon...
Dog mentality
They are super strong indeed, and can hurt you in so many ways. In the post, from perimeter, cutting to the rim. They seem to have all types of players for all positions. Don’t really mind it as I like them, were the first team I saw live last February and it was super fun, that was just after Harris trade. They even won that one with getting an extra pick to use in George trade and Shamet who’s a good rotation piece.
The Knicks really aren't very good.

We really need Baynes back.
We lack any inside presence with him and Ayton out. Should have won the Wizards easily, ahhhh.

lololol Melo sucks
God it's fun watching LeBron and AD play together
Funny how things pan out. Not that I am really surprised 
They compliment each other really really well. Lakers having a much better record then I thought they would at this stage.
Second road trip swept. Best start since 08/09.
Two solid games hardly discounts multiple seasons of awful play. Let's see how it progresses.Funny how things pan out. Not that I am really surprised
Thus this was never my point but nonetheless I agree lets see how it progresses.
Luka back in normal mode.
But, that 4th quarter was a good example of how shit the refereeing is in general. Every small contact called, normal collisions reviewed for violent conducts, you would get a foul if you look wrong at someone. Absolute nonsense.
