Luka’s MVP case is way better than all of the non-SGA candidates yall are trying to force into the running btw

A couple of upsets coming later today lock in 🫡 @BetOnline_ag

@APgelston 0/2

UCLA coach Mick Cronin says he already ate at Dalessandro's Steaks while in town for the tourney. He wants to hit Joe's Steaks in Fishtown next.

@simplyballup @UsherNBA Try me pussy, you'll get your ass beat

@HoopsReference @UsherNBA Mfs like you need dropkicking

The literal only thing that is changing these people’s minds is them seeing the rule affect their favorite players. Every single one of them cheered the rule being made when they thought it would only affect Joel Embiid.

@stashrebirth The rule was only put into place because Embiid won an MVP over the golden boy Jokic and pretending otherwise is disingenuous

@HoopsReference Yall keep bringing uo embiid like they sint make this dhit for kawhi pg etc not just him. Also its really bc the vast majority of players who get on all nba teams and win awards play minimum 60 games

@NZbasketbalNerd Hope you come back soon! And try a cheesesteak from either Angelos, Del Rossi’s, or Uncle Gus 🫡

@HoopsReference Haha you only find out after you’ve been right 😭 Philadelphia was awesome, can’t wait to visit again 🫡 The people were awesome to us and super friendly. Cool city

What a beauty

@UsherNBA So… pretty much exactly what I said. You only started to consider those things when it started affecting players you like. Everything you just mentioned was incredibly obvious and predictable from the second the rule was made yet you cheered it on.

There was a lot I hadn't considered. But really it was just about seeing it. Not much good has come from it, and some of the best players in the league are getting penalized for being legitimately hurt. I would say lowering it to 55 would be more fair, but it's not like players with < 55 GP are even getting major awards votes. And if they do, they're honestly probably deserving

@UsherNBA How so? Literally nothing has changed over the years and these types of outcomes were incredibly predictable from the second the rule was put into place.

@HoopsReference there's so much wrong with this takeaway

First game of the day and were already hitting peak March Madness between Ohio St and TCU 😮‍💨

@SSimonismo You’re 100% right, they dont like that he paints his fingernails and has a bubbly personality and thats all it ever was

@HoopsReference It is 100% because they dislike him off the court and are trying to rationalize it with his low production post injury. Just biggots who found a moment of weakness to pounce on a young player just because they dislike painted nails and tiktok

I remember in January when Sixers fans were using screenshots of McCain's per game averages as evidence that he stinks 😭 god I hate this fanbase sometimes

@NZbasketbalNerd I'm sorry brother but you've been led astray several times on this journey if Pats and Genos were option #1 and South Street was option #2...

@HoopsReference Traveled all the way from New Zealand to watch Joel Embiid play at MSG on the 18th of December. He did not play. Back to Philly for cheesesteaks, got tourist trapped at Pat & Ginos. Discovered south street later 😭

@trashdinho Youre from England pal your entire country feasts on literal slop from a pig trough

@HoopsReference Disgusting slop

@Clara2fyne There were mushrooms! You can see em in the left half

@HoopsReference No mushrooms?

@poeticlove1989 Of course

@HoopsReference Cooper sharp?

@ravenwizardd Dalessandros is terrible

@HoopsReference Dlessandros still the very best imo

@DraftDeeper Its the only way 😮‍💨

@HoopsReference Double seeded roll, fried onions. YKB.

@N1nja_Stranded Uncle Gus 🫡

@HoopsReference From where brother?! Share the wealth!
