Sixers havent lose to the wolves since 2016.

It’s gonna be a close match if we wont have Embiid for this game. I believe our NetRtg without Biid is around the Wolves range
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.

Need to finally win one without Jo (if he doesn't play). Especially since Towns is going to be out.

Could not agree more. I'll even take it a step further if Joel can play let him sit. We need to start winning games without him. Everyone needs to step up. If Harris is the real deal then lead the team to a win against a weak opponent. Curry needs to get his shooting stroke back , Shake and Maxey need to find their mojo. And Ben go hard and often to the rim. And take that shot when open.
The Accession of Paul Reed is upon us !

You want it to be one way....but it's the other way.

I've watched the Wolves. This *SHOULD* be an easy win with or without Joel.

We talk about variance with 3 point shooters and what not. And its probably not the proper term to use here, but applied to a more talented team beating a less talented team in the NBA, when you factor in everything; rest days, travel, fatigue, injuries, motivation, home court, off court stuff... Crazy. The Pistons beat the Lakers by 15 last night. I for sure look at it in too much of a vacuum way too much.

Terrible calls. I would love to see Jo making more an effort to get baskets on his own every possession and the foul being icing on the cake. Unless it’s very high percentage like the rip throughs. No other way to prepare for the playoffs and not put it in the refs hands.

Jo needs to stop looking for fouls on plays he can reasonably score on

Cmon Joel, you’ve tried to go yourself on 2 occasions so far with guys all over you and missed, pass the ball to the open player with nobody on them, both occasions you could have and they would have had an easy score

Ben's free throw form from the baseline view looked decent.

Thought you his percentage chance to get MVP not his just general stat percentages.

The boys really are cruising against this team.
