What a great bounce pass from KP. Unfortunately it was to a driving Calderon.

That was a SWEET give n go KP to Jose. If not for Jerami Grants amazing athletic ability... Jerami is like a souled up Thanasis.

Some people just don't understand that there's a learning process and that mess of a team that he was given to coach last year probably actually set him back some from becoming a better coach. I think he's doing just fine and he'll get better as the season goes.

No finish by Calderon...but another example of KP being able to pass if he has an opening.

it was a shyt call.


The one foul they call that still just blows my mind and i think is one of the dumbest fouls they call is when i guy can pump fake to get the defender to jump off the ground and you can actually jump into him and get the foul called. It's the absolute dumbest crap i've ever seen.

they should make that move a technical foul, sort of an offensive flop.


They should unless the guy comes down on him then it should be some kind of technical foul.

neither player should be allowed to break the other player's "plane". mr. frazier made a living off of shot fake and going up and under a defender who broke *his* plane.

Syracuse starting to get hot.

I think Frazier would have pointed it out...long strides, I think.

Yes, but I'm still waiting for someone to explain to me why Calderon started looking better once Afflalo joined him in the backcourt . . .

I like the job he is doing this year. He essentially has a brand new team. It is hard to forget the night he was mic'd up and gave his speech during a time out though.

Clean @ 12/2/2015 8:37 PM
KP loves that drag screen. Most of his open 3's are from the drag screen.

They're full of athletic freaks but all they wanna do is hoist up 3 pointers. They're a fun bunch to watch but they need a couple of veterans in there if they really wanna win some games.

newyorker4ever @ 12/2/2015 8:40 PM
I hate when they put the Knicks, Syracuse and the Rangers on at the same time.

sooner or later philly is gonna be good. They are collecting a bunch of good young athletic talent and plenty of draft picks. Once they get some veterans they could be dangerous in a couple years

But what's the deal with Afflalo averaging less the one free throw per game (?) That has to be a symptom of something not right . . .


Called being a jump shooter. He has not gone to the basket much.

Not sure his elevation is totally back, although I didn't watch him much last year, so I don't have a good idea of his game.

It would take a lot of patience to be a fan of theirs. Bobby Marks said 3-4 years before he sees them competing for a playoff spot. Also, I can't imagine high quality vets signing there unless there are major changes.
