Still no Tatum from what I've heard. Curry should be back for the good guys. No reason not to roll them tonight!

Time's yours.

On paper should be a win. But Curry's first game or so to start the year he was really rusty. If he picks right up where he left off they should be able to handle business.

But its the Sixers so....

Now that Seth is healthy, it's going to be even harder to get everyone playing time. I imagine we'll go with a 10 man unit using the same guys as last game, and unfortunately Isaiah Joe probably gets frozen out again. Mike Scott is still out.

I'm pretty excited to see our full strength starting unit back in action again.
jonjames is a signature bet welcher.

just be pleasantly surprised if it happens lol.

They'd find a way to make it a close game against a team full of us posters somehow

I would hope Jo plays at least one of those games at Detroit. I'd choose Monday.

I can't remember the last time Simmons finished around the rim after contact. His hands are so bad.

They watch the slow motion replay and go "there was contact!" What am I missing?

And it looks like Curry isn't going to miss a beat. This current version of the Sixers is going to be a tough matchup for a lot of teams.

And if he misses those shots AND the free throws, he's about worthless as a scorer. I mean my lord, when you're confined to shots six feet from the rim and that's how you finish and shoot free throws, what kind of scoring are you really good at?

He's still not 100% sure there was contact? Hell, you ought to be 100% sure there WASN'T contact.

Indeed, Smart with the complete acting job. They should fine his ass for that stuff
