I'd probably give him credit for playing on a winning team, but with an asterisk to go along with it.

you misunderstood my post, Davis deferring wasn't the primary reason for the Pelicans record. It played a part but there were a number of reasons.
That score above can't be right....I thought the beatdown by the Hawks earlier in the year was a nightmare but this takes the entire cake. This has to be some type of record of margin of defeat, no?

Anyone as surprised as I am to find out that the Houston Rockets have tied their record for most single-season wins in franchise history? I, for sure, thought that they had AT LEAST one 60-win season back in the 90's when they had their nice run...
I mean, if Kemba Walker hadn't played, either, the Hornets still would have won by fifteen so, who knows?

In Embiid's case, it seems too many breaks is the problem

This is an example of why trying to "out tank" other teams would be a futile endeavor. It's also pretty funny.

So, Chris Webber didn't make the final cut for the second straight year. I said it last year, and I stand by this: Webber's not going to make the Hall of Fame until and unless he buries the hatchet with the rest of the Fab Five, and makes good with Michigan.

Which is stupid because C-Webb should be a HoFer even if he's no longer BFFs with Juwan Howard.
That may be so, but it seems to me like there is a strong sentiment that Webber won't be inducted, deserving or not, until the issues between Michigan and the Fab Five have been reconciled. And, in turn, it also seems as though the primary thing that is holding up that reconciliation is the fact that the Fab Five are not united. And, in turn, the primary obstacle to that unity is that Webber and Jalen Rose (I think you said Howard?) are at odds, because Webber was hurt and offended that Rose called him out for denying his culpability in the scandal.
Basically, what it comes down to is that many of the people who vote, feel as though Webber is dishonest, and they hold it against him. If he wants to get in, he's probably going to go on an "apology tour" and, for better or worse, that's going to have to start with him and Jalen making nice. As a semi-regular listener to Jalen and Jacoby, I happen to know that Rose has repeatedly said that he has repeatedly reached out to Webber, if Webber ever wanted to settle things between them; Webber appears to be the one holding things up.
