    You can't ask to get paid after a game like that. :D

    You have to ask after you win the game! And you had 20/15/3/2/2 or something. Yeesh.

    He wore it walking into the arena. Part of Julius's positive visualization process.

    Good point, but my point still stands. :D Wear the sweatshirt after a good game and it'll hit home so much better.

    All the Embiid hype is irritating me. In this soft a** big man league and playing in the sorry a** east... Taking advantage of slow a** Lopez and tiny Randle, has the game of his life and now he's Olajuwon? Lol.

    Gorgeous game from Randle tonight. Killer D and boards, highly efficient scoring, great energy and a handful of outstanding assists! Set up some nice screens for Clarkson as well.

    Hell of a game from Randle. The 24 points is impressive, as he had his way at the rim with all his activity, but the defense is what continues to impress me. As long as we don’t put the poor guy on an island with a 7’3 dude he’s crazy effective as a small ball C defending the paint and helping protect the rim.

    I agree Weezy, he's playing the small ball C role so well. And he's developing some real chemistry with Kuz, Lonzo and he's already had it with Clarkson all year. I just like what he adds to this team. I'd love to keep him if we can.

    When Julius has it going like that, it makes the game so much easier. I just loved seeing him get time next to Lonzo. There's no reason they shouldn't have seen more time together on the floor by now.

    Great, great game.

    As I said before everyone on the team needs to play with Lonzo but has to burn 48 minutes to do that... he almost did in this game with 40 lol

    Don't remember where I read it but with a significant number of teams not having capspace or having to sign their own players again this summer , only Dallas and Chicago would be able to offer Julius more than 12 millions a year ... Julius accepting the qualifying offer is a real possibilty according to this guy ( maybe it was Pincus )

    some good passes from the wing in this one, which is not something i've seen much of from randle--he didn't pound the ball/drive before passing. more baby steps.

    got some minutes with lopez, too, which looked pretty good i thought.

    So here's a question. Lebron doesn't come and instead we end up signing PG13 and Cousins. We have to choose between Randle and Clarkson as to who we can keep. Who do we choose? I think the answer is Clarkson since we still have Nance.

    If we sign Cousins and PG13, that means we've already probably given up Randle's Bird Rights so Clarkson wins by default.
