He really should be shut down for the season. What’s going on right now is embarrassing.

Is it so hard to run a play for PG going toward the rim? The shot ain't falling

PG has no burst off the dribble and can't get past anyone right now so why keep trying.

Yeah I mean anytime there's hope, we have to assume it's false. Good sustainable, successful teams do not operate like this. We are quickly approaching becoming Clipper's East (if we aren't there already).

WT 'actual' F is this team even doing? What is the goal here? Why didn't Jo go tonight? Nurkic? There is zero urgency with this team man! What a crap product this has become. Paul George has been an atrocious addition to this team. Let's lose, let's give OKC the 12th pick in the draft. I don't know man, I just don't see the big picture I guess. What is it? I'm clearly missing it.

Embiid is injured against Sac and Phx but guess he will be ok against Was and Pel. :lol:

They really need to find a taker for Paul George. I think as embarrassing as this sounds, the plan is merely to showcase Joel Embiid for the remaining months of the season and prep him to be traded. He only plays against centers that he can score on that won't get physical with him. Clearly that's the trend right now. The team has got to be doing exactly that. Play him against teams he can drop 30/10 on to keep his value up.

This team looked so complete, so cohesive, and so focused against the Celtics on Christmas Day. Since then we've looked like a team playing for a lotto pick.

Yeah this is game Jojo should've played in. We can blame PG if we want but he is supposed to be #3.

Jojo, your trying very hard to make me hate you. He could go for 50 on this team, and you got 0.

Honestly **** PG, doesn’t even give a ****. Get him off the team. He’s worse than Tobias

Ah.. this really feels like 2019-2020 squad when Embiid is not happy with the team

There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

Yeah. I don’t think this organization seriously thinks this team is an actual contender. They’re dumb, but not that dumb.
