Why not McClung? not even in garbage time? I'm disappointed.

And Korkmaz turns the ball over carelessly, lol

Damn good win. No Harden. Embiid 3 quarters drops nearly 40!

Damn, we blew their doors off. Nobody outside of Edwards could hurt us tonight.

We'll get tested Friday against Portland. Lillard has been on a tear and that team is finally playing well. Lillard can drop 10 threes on us. Melton better be ready for the assignment.

Yeah. This would be a Thybulle assignment. Melton will have his hands full along with Tucker and McDaniels. That’s the only game plan you need.

back-to-back vs Turner and Gobert

81pts in 64 minutes for Embiid, 16 for the those bums

Couldn't have scripted it any better. We give Harden a much-needed game off and only play Embiid for 3 quarters and we still win big.

Great job hammering an inferior opponent and getting some rest. Gotta keep winning to pass the Saltics.

When Ferry doesn't post, you know it's a good night :lol:

This team ain't too bad, y'all.

Felt good to watch a rare clean win for the Sixers.

We’re silently the best team in the league.

One thing I noticed at the game is that Maxey looks like he’s having fun again. It looked like he was in a funk for a while complaining to refs constantly & getting yelled at by teammates. But his 24/7 smiling is back now that he’s been on a great run since getting a rhythm vs Miami.

This team is not getting the first seed. And even if they did they would lose a game at home, and in effect lose home court advantage. Not being negative I just know my team.

Bum Adebayo · Post #98 » by **Bum Adebayo** » Wed Mar 8, 2023 2:56 pm

Getting 2nd seed is useless, if MIL is 1st and BOS is 3rd, we would draw BOS in 2nd round if I'm not mistaken, and we would definitely lose against Celtics anyway even with HC advantage.

The other in person thing that stood out to me was Embiid’s effort. It’s kind of jarring to see him just not trying at all in the first half while his teammates are out there running the break.

There was a play where Joel fell down & sat on the court for a good 3 seconds watching the play to determine if he should bother running down the court. It was a back to back so not a big deal but it was pretty brazen at certain moments lol.

Embiid has to carry the offense, the rest of the players have way more energy to expend on the defensive end.
