This is good. Are we a HS team that can't get the ball inbounds?

Joel already flapping his arms on that McCain errant pass. Tired of him doing that with his teammates. Until Joel plays a 100% mentally sound game then he gets to cry.

We keep running this weave hand off action that gets too predictable. We need to better counter teams that overplay us when we try to receive the ball. One adjustment could be having Embiid cut backdoor, creating easy scoring opportunities when defenders overcommit.

Teams like the Bucks, Nuggets, Warriors, and Cavs handle this issue by allowing their bigs to bring the ball down the court and act as point guards at times. This way it avoids the their bigs struggling to receive the ball in traffic.

This team plays in slow motion. Looks like a bunch of guys going through the motions. The way this is going the wake-up call is going to come when they are fighting for their playoff lives. I know it’s technically still early but you can only skate through so much of the season

Really pathetic lol. I can't believe we still can't do the simplest things. It's been 100 years.

He’s one of the best players in the league. But he’s nowhere near as the most mature or the highest IQ player in the league

I'm encouraged that Nurse kept Jared out there after **** the bed for 5 minutes.

Embiid is more comfortable running a Doc Rivers type offense. Just two man game and feed him the ball. Eats a lot of our shot clock, high TO and a lot of mid range.

I'd love to know what Kyle showed to have him stay on the court and for Jared to go to the bench first. It feels like Nurse is just looking for reasons to yank Jared and use him as a 2nd unit player.

That's why the rook went to the bench first where he belongs for Oubre Jr.

Let McCain be the spark off the bench Nurse!!!

This lineup is destined for putting us in a massive hole.

Was there an update on Maxey? I thought he was practicing. Need less Dowtin and Lowry.

Needs another 1-2 games; probably next week is my guess.

PG becomes prime LeBron when playing against Miami's second unit, lol.
