G56: Cavs @ Sixers 7:30pm ET 02/12/22 

Post#1 » by Arsenal » Sat Feb 12, 2022 11:19 pm

Cavs are 1.5 up on the Sixers (1 in the loss column). Coming off a road win in Indiana so they're also on a B2B, but we have the advantage as they had to travel.

Questions...
1. Will Garland play? He missed the game last night.
2. Will Harden be in the building? He arrived in Philly earlier today.
3. Can the Sixers get it going at home? They've been disappointing thus far.
4. Who gets the backup C minutes - Reed or Bassey? Dumb play aside, Reed was pretty good last night.

Time's yours...

I think Cleveland is a pretty good test because Allen and Mobley are big enough to crater Joel doubling him. Joel also seems to be having problem with his wrist.

I hope we get the same Maxey from yesterday tho.

In terms of the minutes at the 5, i like Reed a lot more than Bassey. More versatile and athletic, can cover on the move and seems a better rebounder

Hoping Harden is on the bench, the place would be electric. I generally watch games on the DVD to avoid halftime and meaningless blather, but I'm going to ride with you guys live on this one.

They're saving the Harden debut. Wanna make sure they have special stuff planned and all the important local celebs are in attendance. Probably trying to get Meek Mill, Iverson, etc.

In the pregame, they were saying we play Cleveland four times during this stretch to end the season. I’m looking forward to this game. In the last game, Embiid was really prodding Maxey to be aggressive, and on one instance, there was a stepback three executed perfectly. I’m looking for more of that. Maxey could ultimately end up in the top three for Most Improved Player, and Harris is going to be the best fourth option in the NBA.

Cleveland played in Indy last night but short handed this will be a tough one for us. Not expecting a win but hopefully I’m Pleasantly surprised.
