If Ben hits a three in the next minute, it will be a rare occurrence where Embiid/Simmons score 20 points each.

The only thing more rare is Ben attempting a three.

The hair is dumb af, but he has a tattoo with "Now" in a digital clock font. You lose some, you win some.

Nice to see Ben has been shooting fts better. He should continue that for the rest of the year. Maybe that’ll give him confidence shooting 3s

Outstanding free throw shooting by Big Ben. He is now shooting at a career best free throw percentage and is above 60% on the season.

Best news of the night. He's quietly been shooting a lot better recently. Once he goes consistently over 70% his effectiveness on offense takes a quantum leap.

Was wondering why Simmons looked off early

Guy lost a tooth on Saturday apparently

Can tell you from experience that’s not fun and really takes it out of you

Only if he combines that with driving in looking to draw contact and score through it.

The dreaded road trip coming up. 4 games away @ Hawks, Celtics, Heat and Bucks. If they are to move up in the standings, now is the time to start winning on the road. Hopefully these young guys continue to grow and contribute.

I see us winning 2 out of 4. Then it's time to go on a massive run to end the season.

Embiid wore number 24. He finished the game with 24 points.

We definitely need to win 2 out of 4 if we have any chance of getting the 2 seed. There is a chance we could lose all 4. Which happened late December when we were 23-10 after bucks win Xmas day. The wheels kinda of fell off in Indiana.

Either Miami or Boston will have 15-16 losses by end of tonight.

And we can’t afford to lose ground to Toronto. Toronto doesn’t lose to bad teams.

Simmons told Brown to leave Neto in when he got hot in the second.
