Only Embiid and McCain are listed as out. Maybe Caleb Martin is available? Would much rather see him than any more of Lowry or Gordon. Give those mins to Council instead as the old guys are giving us nothing.

Need Maxey and PG to combine for 60 points again for us to have a chance. If we cover the spread (+9.5) it's a moral victory.

Time's yours...

Maxey leads the Cavs 8 - 2!

Not a good sign giving up a 10 pt lead at the end of the 1st.

Tune in. It’s a fun game.

Feel like we need Bona for this game. Is he hurt or is nurse just not playing him?

Maxey struggles to get closer than 27 to 30 feet from the basket. And if ever he does, he’s being trapped or lead to the corner.

Caleb Martin should be the one playing yesterday then it’s Embiid who should be the one playing tonight.

I don’t understand why we keep running actions that allow Mobley to switch onto George. George should be hunting Garland instead.

When Maxey tries to create offense, he either gets trapped or forced into the corner.

When George tries to generate offense, Mobley often switches onto him, leaving him to take contested shots over a tough defender.

Then, on many weakside possessions, we end up with Oubre or Caleb Martin attempting drives to the rim, resulting in high TO rate and low FG%.

Without Embiid on the floor teams are happy to trap Maxey and play 3 on 4 behind him since they’re not afraid of anyone else.

If we won't slow them down, this will be over midway through the 3rd. We need more RC4.

Can’t play Charlotte every night :/

He has to stop bringing down the ball, then be involved in off ball actions like setting inverted screens, DHO or get actions.

Yeah I'm done

Joel suits up against the **** hornets but can’t bring it against the best team in the East?

We need a player who can reliably take 10 3s per game, like a Sam Merrill, Duncan Robinson or Grayson Allen.

We also need an upgrade at the center position—someone who can provide rim protection and finish on lobs, essentially a more polished version of Bona.

We can’t compete if we lack high 3pt shooting and rely on a center who contributes nothing offensively.

90s basketball vs 2024 basketball

Highly contested 2s vs slightly contested 3s.

His career highlights is mostly against lottery teams like Spurs, Hornets, Nets and Magic.

Another great performance from George Paul. Can we play the Hornets again?

Fire Morey!

On track for the 7th worst record in the league.

Not tanking properly given our pick protections and the talent in this draft is a more fireable offense than not making the playoffs with this roster.

Do you think that Joel wants to tank given his age and injuries? PG? Morey?
Even if Morey decides to tank now, I don't know if other players and the ownership would support it. But also if we do not tank, we lose the pick and we lose in the first round of the playoffs, Morey could get fired.
