Tag: Ersan Ilyasova

The Sixers might have lost to the Heat by twenty and Hassan Whiteside might have put up an easy-peasy 30/20 line, but at least there’s no way to blame Ersan Ilyasova for those things. He was never charged with keeping Whiteside in check; that was “defensive specialist” Nerlens Noel’s job. I mean, with Embiid out…

Here’s my honest take on the matter: the Thunder could really use Ersan Ilyasova. When was the last time someone other than Russell Westbrook scored 25 or more on that team? I was confused as heck when they traded him for Jerami Grant, and I remain confused as heck. Why would you give up one…

View post on imgur.com Yeah, I’m reusing the image. Deal with it. I don’t have the proper words for my emotions right now, probably the proper words don’t exist in English, so I need to use internet memes to convey my feelings. Okay? Is that a crime now? Just typing out his name is tough…

I’ve said it before (or maybe I haven’t, because I say so much stuff in these descriptions that I lose track of all my opinions sometimes), but Ersan “Arsen Ilyasov from Uzbekistan” Ilyasova is the second-best player on the 76ers, and it’s not even close. He would challenge for tops on the team if Joel…

Reasons not to make this video: -Ersan went 8-of-21 from the field, which isn’t very good -Ersan went 4-of-14 from three, which isn’t very good -I’ve grown weary of making videos of mediocre performances -No dunks unless you have a really good imagination Reasons to make this video: -Ersan scored twenty points, which is pretty…

Glad to see Ersan Ilyasova is still making that improbable step-back three work for him. Well, indifferent more than glad, if I’m being honest. As I said before, I don’t EVEN care about this dude anymore. Seeing him hit a bunch of threes while Joel Embiid cheers him on evokes no emotion in me, positive…

I’ve really been impressed with how Ersan Ilyasova has played for the 76ers. After his not-so-good stint with the Magic, I kind of thought he was done. Maybe not totally done, but done enough that he would never again get major minutes for a team. His prospects for playing improved when he got traded to…

When Ersan Ilyasova is your #1 offensive option, you know things aren’t going to go super well. Not dissing the Ersanator here, just pointing out that he is more of complementary piece than a focal point. Without Jahlil Okafor or Joel Embiid (or even Robert Covington) to soak up all the possessions, the 76ers had…
