Re: #22 - Pistons-Sixers - 7pm ET
It's kind of crazy that nearly a quarter of the way into the season Philly still has the 2nd worst record in the league ahead of only the Wizards at 3-14. Detroit has already played 21 games and Philly has only played 17 so they also have had a lot more rest between games early this season. I am starting to wonder whether or not they will pull themselves into the playoffs or not. Luckily for them its likely the 10th seed is not going to require a winning record but they certainly have some catching up to do. They had super high expectations with their moves to land PG13 to the already dynamic duo of Embiid and Maxey.

Definite rubbernecking an accident. The only reason they don't have the worst record in the league is their rookie looking better than expected. Absurd considering the expectations.
I know Ausar looks like 50 percent of himself out there, but i'm glad we have him and Holland to guard Maxey in this one.

We don't seem to have the same energy tonight and Philly are hitting all their outside shots.

Ausar blocks a shot. Scores a 3. Draws 2 offensive fouls in a row.

Re: #22 - Pistons-Sixers - 7pm ET
This is where Cades leadership on the floor is painfully obvious. The team is playing insanely lazy, showing a huge lack of respect to Philly, and the home crowd.
Bickerstaff doesn't seem to understand when a game is in Flux.
Tighten up the rotation, and start running an actual offense. Call time outs at appropriate times. Bickerstaff seems lost, when Cade doesn't play, which is a super wierd vibe to get from a coach.
Effort is really low, which when young teams win, they get big heads, but this is also a lack of caring.

The energy Ausar plays with is incredible.

He just turned 28, so he fits just fine. Guy is a cold blooded shooter. Fits perfectly.JLiv wrote:I’ve seen enough, extend Malik Beasley

Someone tell Maxey we got rid of Troy Weaver. Feels like he is trying to make us pay for passing him over 3 times in that draft.

Poor shooting, careless turnovers, not boxing out. Only have ourselves to blame here.
