Starting the thread since I couldn't find one. Beasley is out today due to non-covid illness...so Nowell will likely get more playing time. Harden is starting for Sixers

Gonna be interesting. I don’t love how we match up, but I think we have a chance. Hopefully the 76ers still have that ASB rust that slowed us down last night. Really need Ant to bounce back and drop between 30-50.

Harden thinks it's sweet to come back against us for his first game. Tonight we got to show him that it ain't sweet!

I do think we will see a resurgence from Harden on the Sixers though, maybe not for a while but I think in the playoffs and next season we will see a lot of Houston Harden again. I don't think he is toast.

Sixer are executing really well tonight, teams that we can't muck up are our big weakness.

Stop overhelping on defense...these possessions end up in a wide open corner 3 opportunities so often.

KAT please keep it together, you unravel with these refs and we will get buried.

Anyone can tell me what's going on with Ant? Have him on my fantasy team and dude has been so passive, and seems to be lacking confidence. Is it the sophomore slump, or something else going on?

GEtting worked at the line and by the 3 ball but we are still hanging on, got to make a move now to let the game get away from us.

he was having a very good season until like 3 weeks back when he started having some knee issues but he still continued playing...but he has kinda gotten worse since last 3-4 games where he has been unable to hit a jumper...just super cold from field. It could be mix of his knee issues and having a cold stretch

Joel Embiid is like the mob boss who has all the local constables on the take.
