You know, for as negative as I’ve been recently, I’m actually expecting a win today. Win or loss though, it will say a lot about this team and the mental makeup of these guys.


Yes we can observe who is really who in pressure moments. I was a fan of WCJ until i saw him in pressure moments. Paolo is hit and miss, but he had some big time moments. Suggs is a fighter but gets too aggressive for his own good. Franz was always our best 4th quarter performer.

For me season is a success regardless if we make playoffs or not. Much more important is offseason and front office job. Mosley should use all his charm to get players sign here. We dont have him here for x and o so lets see who can he help bring here
My money is on Banchero going number 1 !

Very interesting. He was able to finish the game against us. Maybe they're banking on us losing while giving Embiid some extra rest.

Only took Mosely and entire season + Carter being injured to figure it out.

Interesting... Wendell is available but starting Isaac. That pretty much shows they are going all in for the win. I like the move I hope Isaac can slow down Bobby freaking Portis.

I refuse to believe that Mosley and this FO are dumb. They talk about advanced stats a lot in interviews and talk about all the data they can collect during practices in their new facilities.

JI is one of our 4 best players. He also fits extremely well with the other 3.

They've been super conservative with his minutes this year but eventually the training wheels have to come off. He may not ever be a 34mpg player but hell, just give us 28mpg. That should be possible.

We have other issues to be addressed this summer but the top 4 players are the core moving forward.

Call me old fashioned, but usually you play your best players against opposing teams best players. Crazy I know.

WCJ as the bench big is the other thing I wanted. That is what he is. A good, solid bench big that can fill in as a starter here and there.
