Nurse just couldn’t wait until he could be somewhat justified in giving McCain a short leash.. smh.
always a jump shot away.

Extremely ominous given why Joel is out.


Do you think someone is telling her to say this?


Not this specifically, but those on the broadcast team do get some inside info and/or hear things regarding player statuses that they aren't supposed to share unless ok'd by the team.

McCain played basically normal minutes, don't think we gotta start something like this. He was also fine on offense, just missed pretty good shots.

pretty hard to believe that Embiid was playing like the best player on the planet before going down with an injury just last season. And now, here we are discussing whose team it is

The Clippers are mostly made up of role players too, but the difference is their play is cohesive. When they drive, they already know where the next pass is going, creating good ball movement. Meanwhile, our team looks disorganized, like headless chickens scrambling to figure out who to pass to next.

We can but they don't need him anymore with an 8-2 record thus far. I think the Pels might for Ingram cause they refused to give him a max extension.
it's still early. Maybe they go on a losing streak and start to panic (hopefully)


Not gonna trade for a maxed +injured + old PG if they didn't max the younger + healthy Ingram.

The most madening thing, IMO, is that we're staggering him with Maxey until the 4th.

He was put in for like 2 minutes and yanked. Short leash. Also, as mentioned, he should be playing with Maxey more.

Nurse has been absolutely terrible this year, he doesn’t deserve a defense or the benefit of the doubt.
always a jump shot away.

This game basically came down to two things:

They actually make their shoots from 3 and have a useful and playable center.

That is all

This is a much better game against Harden.


I've been anti-Kyle for awhile so if this is the season we need to finally convince ownership he's overrated and has been carried by a loaded roster and great DC and OC coaches? Then yes, I'm all for it.

Today's my daughter's b-day so we just got back from her party otherwise I'd be watching McCain over 9ers.
Didn't know but agree on the Kyle bit who thinks not drafting for OL depth ever since he became HC is his recipe to long-term success.


Kyle only wants a "type" of O-lineman. They have to be able to run his scheme. This has lead to the team picking O-lineman that can run block but are weak as pass blockers. This is why the 9ers are great front-runners when Kyle's run scheme can dominate; but blow leads and can't come back late when defenses can pin ears back and rush the QB.

Just finished cake and saw the score and McCain not having it tonight. Think I'll skip this one. At least it hopefully reinforces the need to tank for a season.

This **** is so dark for us right now. We got two 30 year olds with shot knees locked in for 4 years…our coach has thrown in the towel. If it wasn’t for Jared…

It has reached a point where I ask myself if I can sue this team

They also have a generational playmaker who makes it go. I really hate seeing this Sixers this bad.

This team is so bad that your trade value goes down every minute you play for this team.

Yes. Maxey is nowhere near as close as a playmaker

They probably told Taryn Hatcher dig whatever she can about Embiid so the fans can stay engaged.

Not watching, but browsing thoughts here and social media, sounds like an ugly one. I won't be tuning in at any point this season barring a playoff run. At this point I'm just rooting for losses and I hope it gets bad enough that the front office realizes this as well and just delays Embiid's return until they finally announce they're shutting him down for the season. It's the best thing for this franchise, I don't think it's even a question at this point.
