i agree but it's not just about him making shots... something is just off with the lineup and we do way better when Deuce is in there. I would even consider giving Divo some of Hart's minutes and give more minutes to Deuce.

What's off with the lineup is spacing and Divo not being able to hit anything consistently. The lineup right now is basically a poorer man's version of our Robinson/Randle/RJ/Grimes/JB earlier in the year. You can live with Josh's shooting woes (except for free throw misses; that's inexcusable) because he contributes much more to the game. If Divo isn't bringing anything on offense, 76ers D gets a lot more comfortable. I said this a few times, but Divo's 3-4 minutes of great play can't really make up the 15-20 minutes prior to that. I like Divo a lot, but 33/30 shooting isn't cutting it. McBride did play more minutes than him in Game 5. But I think McBride's D yesterday was slightly less than what he usually brings.

I'm not re-watching game film but I feel like Divo isn't getting many open looks. their defense is respecting him and not leaving him open at all. maybe he could be flaring out further and chucking 27 footers but for the most part it's not like he's turning down or missing a lot of good looks.

You are correct, from Jan 28th 32% of his threes were wide open, that is down to 25% against the Sixers, and he's only shooting 25% on them (44% prior). Most of his shooting splits have basically been chopped in half, he's only taking 5.4 catch and shoot threes against them, he was at 9.4 from the point Randle was injured. The volume of his shooting is just gone, he was taking 5.5 wide open threes per game from Jan 28th, that is down to 2.4 in this series, they aren't letting him dribble much either, and they chopped his rim finishing in half, he would get 2.4 paint finishes before that's down to 1.2 vs them.

They made it a point to neutralize his shooting, and they've made him a liability on defense, just an all around horrific series where all his flaws have come out and it's mostly Kyle Lowry doing this to him If it weren't for Deuce and Bojan we'd have lost this series already.

Generally, South Jersey is foe and North Jersey is friend. Of course there also NY transplants everywhere.

DaGawd has to buy tickets for Game 6 for he his fam again for good luck.

2 minute report shows Maxey traveled right before the 4 pt play. It also shows JHart saved the ball from going out of bounds in OT.

Oh well...

What’s your thoughts on the pg title

it was a bad foul. although, maxey did jump sideways into him and he actually traveled before he shot it. i want to see the 2 minute report

told ya. mitch was unfairly victimized

Maxey carries every time he dribbles. It don't matter, they won't call against the offensive player.

it's crazy how eager people around here are to jump him. especially after how embiid has been making hartenstein look on defense

No Lube For You!!!

Let's go Knicks ... you have to win best 5 of 7 ... first team in history that's so required

Ref was so focused on seeing if he could get the 6ers back in the game with a 4 that he didn't even worry about Maxey's travel

North/Central Jersey = Friend

South Jersey = vile, disgusting, nasty, awful

We didn’t lose because of Mitch, that’s for sure

Yup. Mitch held the line with Embiid in his minutes. Plus he had that massive momentum dunk. He played well overall.
