We're going to have to get by with Beverley as our backup point guard. I would look at a smaller trade around the deadline. Royce O'Neal is another name that comes to mind. Dorian Finney-Smith, Luke Ken Ard, Kelly Olynyk. These are guys that can help us that won't break the bank getting.

We needed more boards from Tobi, but can't believe I'm saying it....we probably lose tonight without his effort when we needed it most and everyone else was about to fall out on the court.
Thanks Tobi, hope your stock keeps increasing

I love the way Nurse has navigated getting our big three touches. Obviously Embiid being the focal point and the it's Maxey in the 2nd and 4th. Nurse finds the matchup for Tobias and it allows him to cook as well. Denver had no answer for him tonight. Braun was BBQ chicken every time and we got the switch with Reggie Jackson on Harris and it was more of the same.

He still has a streak of 30pt double-doubles going.

Please someone tell Nick Nurse to stop playing Maxey 40 mins a night.

Probably won't happen until we bring in another shot creator.

Coaches are always so shortsighted. Unless you’re Spo or Pop.

The sad thing is I would love to get irrationally excited about a game like this from Embiid against Jokic, but until it happens in the playoffs to take us to the ECF it really doesn’t matter.
The Sixers made me this way.

This. Need a Murray or Brogdon in here to lighten Maxey’s load.

Should we meet the Nuggets in the Finals, I like our chances. The problem is, always has been, and seemingly always will be Boston.

If we can only match up with Boston like how we match up with Nuggets, we’d been in the finals for 3 years already lol
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

I wonder how much it would cost to get Shake Milton back in the fold. Or Spencer Dinwiddle ?

MVP in the house!
But, we don't win this game unless Maxey and Harris get to their numbers. And role players play their part.
You can see how against a championship team like Denver there's no margin for error. Everyone has to be at their best to even allow yourself a chance to win.
We showed that we can do it. Now we need to show that we can do it consistently.

Maybe I will amend my statement to say in the "off season" I wonder how much it would take to get Shake back in the fold. There was a period last season where Shake played some great ball when Maxey was out. With a better coach, Nurse, Shake could be an ideal low cost replacement for Melton, if Melton leaves in the off season.
