I enjoyed watching those youth hoopers. They had skills.

Wolves hanging around down 60-53 at the half. I say we win this.

Clark has drawn a lot of fouls tonight. He seems good at it.

Feels like bigs are showing out better vs Embiid than guards are against Maxey and Edgecombe

Rob playing quite nicely , he is improving ! Joan should be in the rotation at least few min per night. Looks good.

A le loup game to Berringer is looking great.

Le Berricade has been our best player tonight followed closely by Clark.

Juzang needs to make our team. Don't know if that means in place of Miller or Bones or whoever.

Got within 4 and gave up the last 7 of the third quarter. Bones fell down when we were going for last shot leading to fast break for 76ers.

His worse pre-season game. He doesn't have a consistent 3pt release but I like that he has a mid range game from the 3pt setup. I was thinking he should replace Ingles' spot. Regardless, Miller is done. Bones will make it.

Miller is quietly having a good game. You never notice him, but look at the box score and the numbers are there.

Miller still have terrible footwork. VJ Edgecome looks like a good player.

Edgecomb looked like 2006 Kobe while wearing Ant's AE1s and pulling out KG's signature block after dead ball move. Joel Embiid found an old crate of Timberwolves miracle tonic and drank it in front of our faces. Andre Drummond dominated us with a Bozo the clown haircut. They played the damn sixers song over our dead corpses and laughed.

This is the most disgraced I have ever been as a fan of anything in my life. The NBA has burned a bridge today and the only way I'll be back is if they reinstate the 2018-2019 Ninja Turtle headbands.

Dillingham +/- this preseason (not going to count the chinese exhibition)
+4
-7
-4
-12
-27

If we have to count on him to be a rotation player this year it's going to come with a negative effect on winning.
That's okay if you are not looking to contend but thats not the position we are in.

I'm kind of curious why Johnny Juzang got zero minutes against the Bulls.
Have they seen enough so that he has already made the team?
Or is that a bad sign.

Highlights for those less-than-diehards who didn't watch this one....
