Um...go Nets, I guess.
Seems like everyone has done the smart thing and opted to not watch this game (if you can even call it that).

Sixers have had the Nets number all goddamn year.
I'm sorry, if you lose you lose, but the Sixers have whipped our asses from the opening whistle.
Also, I know the season is a lost cause but goddamn it Lopez and Young's rebounding rate has gone into the toilet. That's not good. hard to keep guys north of 25 motivated when the team sucks!!!
nope. NyCeEvO we cannot punt towards 2017. we either hold a fire sale to get picks that can become assets or pieces or we overpay younger guys this summer.
there is NO in between.

Ever wonder why Karasev doesn't play besides the obvious?
Well, there's nothing besides the obvious. Dude isn't an NBA player lol.

Fire sale of what? There's nothing to sell. The team is hot garbage.
You're only getting a pick for Thad and maybe a 2nd rounder for Jarrett Jack's non-guaranteed contract.
Everything must be done through the draft or free agency.
Rushing into stuff is what got us into the big mess. There's no need to continue it just because we don't like the consequences of past actions. Take the consequences and move on. There are no shortcuts to fixing this
Unless you drastically overpay, we might strike out anyway.

Well, I didn't watch the game but I heard Thad had a horrendous game and for some reason they "rested" Bogs and Markel started in his place. Seems like a really weird decision.

What is this, troll night?
Sixers beat Nets
TWolves beat OKC in OKC. (Rubio of all people hits the GW 3.)
"Born_Ready" goes off and is an integral part of the Grizzlies win tonight.

Can someone explain to me the logic of resting Bojan? What has done to require a day off? He doesn't suit up for 36 minutes a night consistently. Stuff like that is why I complain about Tony Brown.

Fire sale meaning trading Thad and Brook if we punt until FA 2017
we need to get better on the wing this summer or else we'll be watching this same mess again next season.
I'm not saying do anything crazy but i can't fathom making the playoffs with this bunch next year without a substantial acquisition of talent.
And good lord, Markel stunk last night.

im not trying to hear this noise about reed and bogs not playing.
if you cant beat a tanking okafor-less sixers you suck big time.
this is a game lopez should drop 35 without batting an eye and we have 7 guys in double figures. we didnt come out looking to win. we are going through the motions

The Sixers are better without Okafor, aren't they? Just seems like a guy who is playing in the wrong era.
http://espn.go.com/nba/statistics/rpm/_/page/2/sort/RPM/position/9Pretty crazy stat for such a high pick...

with or without him, they are an awful awful awful team. and with him, he gave us trouble in prior games.
either way pretty embarassing to lose to them, with such a lack of effort

Okafor whipped Brook's ass the last time we saw him if I remember correctly.
Either way I agree with Prok. Reed and bojan or no, the team should have beat them.

Everyone was sleep walking. Only reason they didn't blow us out by more is because they're just that bad.
