My mother came over to watch the match. She has problems with both knees and has trouble getting up, and even she stood and clapped on that one.

JJ can perform magic

YEEEEEESSS!!!! What a game! Heat couldn't miss from three and deep midrange shots for the first three quarters and the most frustrating part was that it wasn't Ellington going off, it were ****ing James Johnson and Justise Winslow. Nevertheless we wouldn't let go and the masked man put it to bed in the 4th. Woke up early to rewatch this game and from the moment I stepped out of bed my heart rate didn't get below 150.

Btw, MVP of this game: Ben Simmons, RIDICULOUSLY good on the defensive end and those 7 from 8 at the line were HUGE.

Playoffs baby!!

Yes sir!!! Beat the Heat!! Hahaha Dragic flexing on Bello, what a douche.. All they know to do is to pump fake and hold down our guys! Fakers!

Standard games from Ben and Biid! I love the tensity that Anderson and TJ bring! Thats what you need for playoffs!

Proud of my homie Dario, he's a baller. And what about Marco, he played like phucking violin, so smooth!

Yeah!! Now lets take another one and finish it off at home!

If, for financial reasons, we had to choose between Marco and JJ, who would you choose?

Would love to have them both back next season anyhow. We need that elite shooting.

I'd choose Marco. We can insert Fultz at the starting lineup if JJ is not back next year. What we need is the stability of our bench.

Awesome game from Joel and Saric today. Fantastic win for the team. Love this team.

Simmons quietly boasting a career playoff average after his first 3 playoff games of :-

20ppg, 10rpg and 9.7 assists per game. The big story is Simmons excellent free throw shooting in the playoffs , hitting 75% of his free throws over 3 games, was 7 of 8 on his free throws in game 3. Who could have predicted that???

Saric has to be one of the most underrated players in the league right now. The kid is for real!

Yes, I just said it right?

The way Fultz is looking right now I don't see how he can play next to Ben. He really has to gain that shooting form back or I would seriously look to trading him. I would look at DeAngelo Russell or Jamal Murray or maybe call Jordan and see if Kemba Walker is available . Right now Fultz just doesn't look like a guy that can shoot. Colangelo can't wait around too long on this.

I'd choose Marco, and its not close. Come playoff time when teams are playing hard you need a degree of athleticism that JJ just doesn't have. You need an extra gear, one that JJ hasn't shown in his playoff career. Marco actually has a ring, thats way more experience than JJ's losing in the playoffs all these years.

Plus Marco would be cheaper, at least I hope although that could change.

Fultz has to earn the starting spot. Next season I’d still bring him off the bench until he proves he’s good enough to start if he ever shows that.

Agree. He’s shown he has the skillset to fit with Simmons and Embiid (aside from shooting) - defense, secondary playmaking, etc. The big question is 3pt shooting... he has all off season to fix whatever is wrong but he has to prove he can shoot to start.

This and Simmons being naturally unselfish are why I'm not worried about either of them leaving because of touches. They may eventually leave for whatever other reasons, but they're not selfish like that.

That makes me so happy. How many star players say things like that? Its obvious ben is unselfish, but to see embiid saying that?? I love this team and this core. Process vs anti process we lucked out with these guys skill wise, but maybe more importantly character wise leading the way.

Love the way you guys played last night. Haven't watched you play much but wow! Swinging the ball fast, making the right decisions, playing with intensity and clutch.

As a Raps fan, I understand the pain of a rebuilding and the Process was definitely the way to go. Glad you have been rewarded (and BC didnt f it up:).

Good luck the rest of the playoffs. Hope we hook up in ECF.

JJ is a better player, but he costs a lot more.
