MCW/Sixers taking on Steph Curry/ GS tonight...

[Deano]

This should be a fun game to watch. I really like both teams. Hopefully it's a high scoring shootout and the Sixers win.

Man doesn't get any easier. What a week.

You got that right, after tonight he will be matched up against; Wall, Irving, Irving, and Parker in his next four.

Its easy to forget how many good to great players there are in the NBA. You start looking at rosters and seeing guys who are getting no run thinking damn that guy was hot stuff not to long ago.

Could be the Sixers first loss. Defensively they like to pack it in the lane and dare teams to beat them with 3's. Maybe not a good strategy vs the Warriors

Totally agree. I watch a good bit of NBA and every team has someone incredible. Just watching the Knicks/Twolves game the other night, you get Love, Rubio, Melo, etc. Then Kevin Martin drops 30+.

As for tonight's Sixers/Warriors...this will be a lot of fun. Curry and Thompson don't play much D, so I expect Carter-Williams to put up numbers again, but we'll see if he can frustrate them with his defense like he has in the other games so far. Those guys can flat-out shoot.

Regardless, I love watching this kid ball.

Tank that!

I've heard the argument that the league needs an expansion due to how much talent currently exists amongst profession basketball players.

I don't think they should. It would just make the product worse IMO. You'd have the bottome ten-twelve teams being god aweful if you did this because the talent would not be evenly distributed just as it isn't now. Its just that you go from such a large pool international and ncaa to such a small pool NBA. My point is just that its amazing how hard it is to make the NBA and how really really good many of the players who are basically scrubs are. Pretty much any dude who can hold down a roster spot for a season would be AA in college.

Yeah, we just got things back to solid thanks to not having high school kids on rosters. Let's not mess with it already.

You've got that right. Steph is a better 3pt shooter than Ray Allen.

You should have tix to the game tonight since you are in Philly!

Might be the first NBA game I actively pay attention to in ~10 years
