Too Tobias dependent.

I think it's quite normal for a team to be dependent on it's superstar player. How good would the Lakers be without Lebron? Well...We all saw.

*stats to justify this statement to follow

He's playing well tonight. His issues arise in a playoff series against a Top 10 defense.


Reminds me of our Nets series

How did the Wizards score 62 points with Westbrook and Beal being so inefficient?

Joel Embiid and Dwight Howard can't protect the rim and the Wizards have like 1 million buckets at the rim.

I don't think we're gonna see too much of Shake or Furkan on the second half.

But yea, not worried. Embiid played 10 minutes, we shot like ass from 3 and still just losing by one point.

Simmons with 4 points. The issue is that when Embiid is out or on the bench, Simmons has to become a scorer. If Harris was having his typical game right now this team would be down by 15+ points easily.

I can't believe we're in like year 8 of the Ben Simmons forced captivity experiment, and we have posters in here STILL getting aneurysms over his production... You do it to yourselves

Hilarious -- Harris is on-pace for 56 points, and his +/- is -4.

Washington really isn’t a 8 seed they were very good the last 30 games or so.

Imagine how Ben's game will age gracefully when his athleticism starts declining..

17th ranked offense, 19th ranked defense

The Wizards are terrible. Nonplayoff team in a normal conference.

The Sixers could very well lose this series. Washington has a closer in Beal, a guy who turns on the juice and makes plays in the clutch in Westbrook, and a three-point shooter in Bertans. If these games are close in the end the Wizards have the better lineup for a half-court battle. The Sixers have to be up by a significant margin at the ends of these games. If they aren't, they could very well lose the series.

I think we’re still going to win by double digits, but Ben and our defense look terrible.
2025-2026 Philadelphia 76ers:

Maxey/McCain/Lowry
Edgecombe/Grimes/Gordon
George/Oubre/Edwards
Barlow/Watford/Walker
Embiid/Bona/Drummond/Broome

Simmons being guarded by Westbrook and not even a thought about making a scoring move. All passing.

They **** suck, dude. They're the definition of an 8 seed.
