G3: 12/27/20 Sixers at Cavaliers 7:30 ET 

Post#1 » by Arsenal » Sun Dec 27, 2020 7:00 pm

Another must win game on the road against a bad team. Cavs are 2-0 and their young backcourt of Darius Garland and Colin Sexton has been unsustainably hot, but it came against two bottom feeders in Charlotte and Detroit.

I'd sit Jo tonight since its a B2B but I don't think that's the plan. Time's yours.

Jojo also has been hot and if he can sustain this, he can be an MVP candidate.
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.

He should go for it to shut up his haters and this year might be the most possible for him

The stupid media thinks inferior players like Jokic and Gobert deserve all-NBA votes over Embiid. No way those same group of clowns vote him for MVP.

I think it depends solely on our record. If we're looking like the #1 or #2 seed by voting time, he'll have a good chance. Last year our team (lack of) success was the issue.

2 Key factors this year:

1) Much improved spacing
2) Coming into the season in better shape

So barring injury and assuming massive team success, I expect Jo to be in the running.

We will be Very lucky to win this game tonight with Jo - if Jo sits we get beat by 10 points. He needs to play.

Cleveland a shooting 45% from three point land it’ll be a total mismatch at the guard positions.

Will ride on team success. Make us a top 2 seed and they won’t be able to say anything.

Problem believing the Knicks and Wizards slaying 2-0 Sixers are skyrocketing up the rankings?
