yup...and a lot of those minutes were with mitch and precious...

thibs gotta trust some of these guys...the pace the pacers want to run us at I don't think our main guys can effectively play nearly 48 minutes without any rest.


We def looked a little tired late in the half. Some different lineup combos too….a few adjustments and we should be ok

Why are we not getting any easy looks inside if they're crowding the 3pt line? We haven't really gotten an open 3 so attack....

Give Mitch a break fellas. Just a few days ago we were all praising him on the job he did on Embid. Give him a little rope...he'll get it together in the the 2nd half

They are soft….


Just because you repeat something doesn't make it true :dontknow:

We're tougher, but they're a deep & scrappy team.



No they’re not. Only one who’s scrappy is TJ. They’re bottom 3 in rebounds per game, we’re top 5… same with defense… we’re at the top, they’re at the bottom.

We’re tough and scrappy, they’re soft. We just gotta get punched in the mouth to realize we’re in a fight.

And the Sixers are soft… crying after every contact, flopping, and complaining to the refs n league…

Isn't Burks legit injured and not just getting vet-courtesy-DNPs?


He hasn't been on any of the injury reports all playoffs


Huh. I swear I read that from Katz, maybe it was on some pod though.

I mean not for nothing we don't really have a bench w.o Bogs... unless Burks decides not to suck and he only gives u offense if he's on... he's trash defensively like super trash

It's not just TJ, Nembhard & Nesmith are very scrappy players too. We're tougher than the Pacers, but they're a lot tougher than the 6ers.

Our starters are killing their starters. Their bench is killing our bench. So play the starters more or get someone else off the bench. That's the adjustment.
Fire Thibs!
