Springer (I wonder what kind of illness he has?) and House will miss their third straight and of course Oubre.
McCollum will make his return to the Pelicans albeit likely on a minutes restriction.
Not feeling great about this one. The Pels are a tough match up and always play well vs. us especially at home so it could go either way. Obviously we're not gonna blow them out by 44 like we did the Lakers.

Easy win here, Embiid will have a bad game but Maxey will have a career high with 52 points.

Embiid is out. Gotta save his legs for Boston I guess. Anyways, this one is officially a loss now.

Everyone is sick, including Embiid. Get these guys a drip, and give them some damn multivitamins. This team gets sick more often than any I've ever seen.

Team just needs to know what they’re doing and be confident on offense, not like the last time when we played against the Wolves.

I'll put a hundred on it being Covid. It's made it's way through my house and ko'd me big time. I'm going to dip out early if this one gets out of hand. Pels are better than their record suggests. Oh and CJ is back..Guy always kills us. They've got their big wuss playing tonight too in Zion.

Embiid and the guys are ”up to date” with the vaccines so they’re “protected” and can’t “transmit” the virus.

Maxey should take charge on offense.

Why are we just jacking up threes? One and done every time down. We're gonna get smoked.

Just a bad match-up for our starting 4&5. Morris and Tobi are TOO SMALL for JV and Zion.

If Morris isn't going to hit shots no reason for him to be out there

My guess is we’re trying to take advantage of our small ball 5 out offense to counter their big 4-5 unit. Another thing is the later we go to the shotclock the worse quality of shot we’re gonna get because of their length and size

What else are they going to do?They are smaller and trying to spread the floor. It's a little harder without you dominant big man demanding attention.
We aren't going to win but this a game where Maxey need to be aggressive every possesion.

Oh, hey brother, I didn't mean to start anything on here.
Being sick sucks. Go Sixers, whatever. Not at all interested in talking about vaccines and if they're good or bad. I don't do politics, nor do I push religion. I'm just happy to be here watching 76er basketball while still breathing air. My concerns in life lie elsewhere.
