With Thybulle making Defensive 2nd-team says a lot for my preference for Cotton (not naturalised and injured anyway).
Congrats to both. Now just play some slack D (for 76'ers), get your early releases, and be in Tokyo.
Great look for the Boomers. 2 of the NBA's top defenders and 1 of its best 3-point shooters (Joe).
And some idiots here want to pick cotton, sobey, goulding ahead of Thyubulle

I read today Simmons is shooting 34% from the foul line in these playoffs, smh.
1 from 5 today, must have been to venky school of free throw shooting. ::)))) It cost them victory today.

Simmons is a liability on offence once it becomes a half court game.
He makes a pass, sets a screen and then stands in the low post. He clogs up space and his teammates largely ignore him.
His lack of shooting ability (including free throws) is inexcusable at this stage of his career.
