Seriously WTF were the schedule makers thinking?

Sadly I think we're due to lose at least 1 of the next 2 games.

Given the back to back, does Nurse change the rotation a bit to prevent fatigue especially with our older guys and Embiid?

I'd like to see more Springer tonight against the high powered Pacers offense.

Will Embiid even play? He's questionable.

Batum is already out, so I'd like to see what RoCo can do with a starting role and mins.

Will Adam Slither get mad if we tank this oh-so-important IST game?

Resting Embiid is hardly tanking with this roster. We could possibly play even faster without Embiid actually, we should still smack the Pacers with Reed in the lineup. Let's rollout Maxey Melton Harris Roco Reed and show the league we're unf***witable

Maxey for 60

The Sixers advantage on Sunday was on the boards. Without Embiid, the rebounding gap closes big time. The Sixers will have to out-shoot the Pacers, not sure if they can.

Embiid and Batum out, WTH! This is tournament play. This is for the cup. Come on guys let's play through injuries and advance in the tournament, the cup is within our reach.

Time to pull out our secret weapon

I want that cup. Gimme the CUP.

Embiid took a pretty hard fall on his back and hip in the last game. It had the look of a going to miss a game spill when he got up and was trying to stretch it out. Would he play if this game was Boston? Prolly, but not 100% sure on that.

Maybe he shouldn't schedule IST games on b2bs. You don't see b2b games in the playoffs. Is this thing important or not?

It's a B2B and I think Embiid was given a choice of which game to sit out and he took this one because he wants to play in Boston and he wants to inflict pain on them the way Chozen wanted to hurt Danielson Laruso in Karate Kid part 2. We're going to lose one if not both of these games and when that happens, some of you are going to start your bull$hit on here because some of yall are just doom and gloom, fearmongers.

It's important to remember the initial expectations for this year/season. We were never expected to go to the Finals and win it all. This was a step-back type of season to evaluate, grow, and prep for next year. We're winning games right now which is awesome! We're currently sitting atop the east which is amazing! But we're going to lose some games and it's going to be ok. Guys just need to go have fun, play some basketball and compete and the world will turn.

As for tonights game...We can beat them without Embiid, but it's going to take another heater from Maxey to do it. No Oubre, no Embiid, where's the offense going to come from? If there was ever a time for Melton to catch fire, it's tonight. Look for Tobias to have a nice game too. There's nobody on that team that can really guard him and he needs to exploit that. Sadly, this game looks like a scheduled loss.

Pacers 118
Sixers 112

Kinda a schedule loss but all things are possible when you accept Tyrese Maxey as your lord and savior.

The pace of this game is going to be electric, especially with Embiid sitting out. Gonna need a team rebounding effort because Embiid has been a workhorse in that aspect to start the year.

It’s gonna be a layup line for both teams so I’m probably gonna bet the over in this one.

Bring up Terq Smith and tell him to keep shooting till his arm falls off…then again you probably don’t need to tell him that, just pass him the ball.

If they really want this in season tournament charade to be taken seriously... then they cannot schedule back-to-backs with regular season games.

Everyone will play tomorrow against Boston in a game that matters.

That's way too much defense being played with your final score. I'm anticipating something more like 135-125 Pacers win.

All good because the important game is tomorrow.

Same, all I see is Boston. EFF them! I want us to murder them every time we play them.

Embiid is playing

KP is questionable for tomorrow too

Embiid should not be playing tonight.

Bad call by Embiid/Nurse/Morey/Harris/Silver.

The Stanley Cup is a different sport.
