1. Harris is shooting 34%
2. Beasley is shooting 35%
3. Tech is shooting 26%!

A 3rd of our rotation is shooting horribly. And these are three guys that I know will progress back to the mean. Previous seasons were due to lack of talent and lack of cohesive fit. There is no Smoove, Monroe, Drummond front court. There is no Killian Hayes starting PG.There is no Maxiell and Prince being the focal point. There isn’t even beaten down Blake. This is a balanced team that has a bunch of new pieces who have had bad starts. I think we’ll right the ship.

I'm sticking with my original Sixers prediction, especially now that Embiid and George are both definitely confirmed as out.

There doesn't seem to be any easy wins anymore. Even the Nuggets got taken to OT by the Nets today so we can't pencil them in as a win for us.

I wish I had your optimism but it's been beaten out of me by this franchise. I used to the Glass Hall Full fan.
I think the team stinks and will continue to stink in clutch moments especially but I hope you're right about this being a balanced team that will get better.

I sure hope that they do progress back to the mean.

Beasley had a great year last year but he has a history as a pretty streaky player. Tech doesn't have a particularly big sample size. Tobias is coming off a generationally bad playoff performance; this looks and feels like a continuation of that.

And none of them have superstars to play off of and generate open looks.

We'll see. I hope these guys bounce back- it's only been four games after all.
