He basically eliminated Maxey and with Harden gone, he has full licence to push the pace on any rebound or turnover. That's truly where he excels because he is a good ball handler and can finish at the rim or make a good pass in transition. Easy offense.


What's crazy to me is that we've had Brown, Griffin and even MILLS pretty openly express their dislike of Harden... He must have REALLY been hated for high character role guys to that openly dislike him.


You cant....

lose to the warriors

lose to the suns

lose to the kings and absolutely quit

not travel with the team, fake injuries, leak that you want off the team while in a 10 game losing streak and no alienate vets. especially guys who took less to try and win here.

All in all every member of our team played their hearts out. We just wanted it more. Our mid range game is our bread and butter, it was like death by a thousand cuts for the Sixers.


I was really surprised how well nic played Embiid... at the same time, props to drummond, im sure 10 minutes of trying to bully drummond took alot out of embiid. we saw mostly jumpers after that



Drummond had the soze/physicality to make him break into a severe sweat in the first quarter, you know when Embiid has that look it's over for Philly.

Philly is royally F'd.

-They wont win a title
-Harden "forgot" to opt in
-Harden will enter the offseason as an FA
-Harden will be fat in the summer

Morey needs to give a fat 34 year old harden who just came up short in the playoffs 5 years at 50+ million per year or lose him for nothing. that would be 2 picks, simmons, curry, drummond for 3 months of harden or doom yourself to fat declining harden with no cap room to improve for 5 years

ouch.

Even though he went 2 for 3 from 3, as soon as I saw Embiid starting to hoist 3s, I knew he was gassed, frustrated and letting go of the rope. There's something to having to spend half his minutes banging with somebody his own size, then have to deal with a hyper-athletic pogo stick.

I don't know if the Nets will win **** this year.

But Harden WILL choke in the playoffs. I give them no chance of beating Milwaukee.

When they lose he will get killed by the Philly fans. This is the wrong city for him.

And he might just leave. I could easily see him wanting to go to Miami or one of the LA teams.

The Nets BETTER put Kyrie courtside for this next game. We have to.

Its a national TV game.

Eric Adams will look like a complete idiot for letting Kyrie sit courtside and not letting him play.

The only way to get the mandate changed is public pressure.

Lol, as if we can't form an opinion. Harden stans are hilarious. We showed James nothing but love and then he came into the season out of shape and burned his bridges with KD. Thanks a lot I guess.

Sounds familiar.

It was great seeing Dragic penetrate and dish, and the gravity drawn by KD and Kyrie creating wide open shots for Seth and Patty.

Also, think about this:

Bruce Brown has been playing pretty much the role we expect Ben to play. But we know Ben is a better ball handler, is more explosive, is a better defender versus wing scorers and is an excellent playmaker in transition.

Scary to think about what can happen if we can get Ben in there for a Kyrie/Seth/KD/Simmons/Drummond starting 5. Two elite scorers, a deadly knockdown shooter, lock down wing defense and a dominating presence on the defensive glass.

yeah i wouldn't want to play us either. just got to hope Adams stops being a c*nt

Man you guys have an all time great, watching him in motion is special. Appreciate that. So much fun seeing Durant dominate last night. Basketball at its best.

Maybe this thread... while the correlation isn't locked as undisputable yet however, coincidence that without LMA subduing Claxton's ability to be on the floor(Coach's call not LMA), Claxton and team performance on the defensive end has been much better of late?

Once LMA is healthy and returns to keeping out Claxton from playing(not his fault, Nash's call/vision), expect to see the same struggle as before...

we need life, legs and energy... can't be behind in today's game.

Bruce isn't the FT liability that Ben is. And he understands our offense perfectly.

He also wants to handle the ball unlike Bruce. I don't know if its that simple.

LMA was HUGE For us offensively. Especially when KD was injured.

We don't need scoring as much now.

I think he can be useful for games without Kyrie.

Or definitely as a spark plug off the bench.

But Claxton is our best option for a closing lineup.

Nash giving Biid different looks definitely through him out the rhythm. Than you add the fact he got tired banging with Dre, yup don't get surprised philthy tanking games to remain 3 seed. I'll go even further. They don't want to be in a same bracket, it'll be wise to slide down and match up vs Bulls at 4.
