We are losing by 9.....to the damn Cavs, really wish we could win games with injuries like other teams do.

We seem to have to be totally healthy to win games.

Would like to see this lineup in the second half:

Milton
Curry/Korkmaz/Joe
Green/Thybulle
Scott
Simmons

2 ballhandlers, 4 shooters, run and gun style the way Ben likes it. Keep whoever is hot on and rotate them through. 6mins would love to see how it works. Got to open up the game offensively to get us going

Ben is scoring well with bogus space/shooters, in a slow setting. That’s good news moving forward.

Cavs are tiny anyway, besides the two bigs who are non scoring threats.

Giannis ball it for awhile

Shake losing his jumper is a big deal

Everything is flat. Dude was working with Fultz trainer

Man this is an ugly game

DCasey91 · Post #67 » by **DCasey91** » Sun Feb 28, 2021 1:27 am

Korkmaz is pretty bad but only him and Green from the eye have a quick pull trigger (and joe). That’s pretty much it. We are so reliant on non elite shooters/average shooters holistically hitting their shots, 3-12 on list down. It’s a very weird team construction.

How does a veteran shooter airball shots so many times?

Why didnt embiid just back garland down ? wtf
Whats the point of getting the ball with a guard on you if your going to just put the ball on the floor and turn it over.

I'm glad Furkan is showing Doc's weird trust in him is a waste of time, before the trade deadline.

Bad Seth Curry nights are unwatchable.

Even if Maxey sucks right now, he's still more talented than most of the players in our rotation. When most of these guys aren't hitting their shots, they literally can't do anything else.

Richuan/Horford is a way better backup for Ben.

Richuan had the best hands I’ve seen/lob target/More efficient in the post.
Horford for obv reasons.

Everyone is missing open shots

Embiid has been bad lately

ivysixer2000 · Post #76 » by **ivysixer2000** » Sun Feb 28, 2021 1:39 am

It really is incredible how much Ben has developed so many shots in tight when he used to brick shots like that not long ago.

Had no touch, to get to this point is amazing.

mithrandir17 · Post #77 » by **mithrandir17** » Sun Feb 28, 2021 1:40 am

Doc should atleast try the backcourt combination of shake and maxey again. Let's have dual playmakers on the court for a change.

DCasey91 · Post #78 » by **DCasey91** » Sun Feb 28, 2021 1:41 am

Ben/Embiid can not play well together was the biggest myth the media portrayed lol.

Defensively you have an elite duo on the interior/perimeter

Offensively they work fine the synch isn’t the best but that can be easily offset provided the other 3 compliments them without high dependency issues. Was pretty simple broken down.

The chemistry that has emerged between Simmons and Embiid is amazing. They really compliment each other and are looking deadly

Simmons you gotta make those dunks
