Interesting to see how this game goes, PHI has their “big 3” playing tonight
Why Billups , why
would you challenge that? Less than 1min into the game, even if you win it? And it was a jump ball not even like guaranteed possession for PHI. That is what dumb coaches do.
Real sloppy start by both teams
Yikes, Maxey with the and 1, Simons with awful defense, wow that was bad
Deni’s handles on his drives needs some work. 4 TO so far
Nice pass by Scoot for the dunk, then gets a steal
Oh nice pass by Scoot to Ayton there
Good board by Camara over Embiid
Who is this doppelgänger pretending to be DA?
Scoot with the aggressive drives so far, also drawing fouls. If he can start to finish on some of these drives, he is gonna be just fine.
Some of these “Haberstats”, he has to dig deep for those
Yikes, bad layup miss by DC there
Avdija, tough and 1 through heavy contact
That was a really high pick and roll by Scoot\DC, and he got fouled, like to see a lot more of those
Deni breakaway dunk, once he gets going, very hard for someone to catch him

Obvious that Billups is back coaching.

DC just leveled a guy there on that screen, man a little while later, he picks up the offensive foul and now he’s out
Embid. just shaked and baked Ayton there
I like Deni’s aggressiveness, but he’s gotta let the game come to him. It seems like he’s trying to force too much tonight and when he does that, it ends up in a TO more often than not.
Yabusele with the poster on Deni, but I love the effort/intensity that Deni gave challenging that
Another TO by Avdija, come on! POR with 11 TO, Deni has 7!
RW3 sighting
Love Camara‘s defensive intensity, but his 3pt shooting & offense has to improve in order for him to be a legitimate starter, instead of a super sub off the bench
Sharpe with a really passive night so far, only 3 shots
lol, Cronin not clapping anymore
Embid 93% from FT? Wow
I wonder how many 2nd chance points Camara is responsible for this year? Sure seems to be around the ball a lot.
Great D by RW3 there, hope other teams are watching, 1st round pick incoming, as long as Cronin has the balls to pull the trigger
Good D there by Camara, if you were not on his team, you would think he is such a pest

As others have said, good for the tank, and it allows Cronin to not to make any moves in order to insure they are among the bottom dwellers, now that is depressing
Honestly, I would rather see them send Billups on his way, trade the vets for whatever they can get and just go with the young guys and let the losses pile up organically, but, instead we get this

It may be good for the tank but my worry is that it sets back development of the young players.
I would also be willing to trade the vets even if we don't get full value for them( though I want some value) simply so we can see what the youngsters are capable of so that we can decide what moves need to be made in the future.
Scoot in particular I would like to see how he does under a different coach ( can anyone find out Scoot's numbers when Billups is out?).

Expecting 1st triple double from Deni (PTS/Reb/TO).

DA is like 60% effort on the offensive end, and like 5% effort on the defense end
Embiid really has some nice moves, good footwork
Deni starting 2nd half off like he did in the 1st, with another TO that is #8. What do they call a triple double when one of the doubles is not one you want to get?
A tainted triple double?
Camara’s defensive intensity got the best of him there, just picked up 3rd foul, then he draws another offensive foul
Simons picks up 4th foul
Great lob by Scoot there
That’s one of the first times I’ve seen Sharpe talk back to a ref after a bad call, think that might’ve fired him up a little, really nice behind the back move there
Nice drive, and, finish! by Scoot there
Did I just see DA block Embiid?
Deni with a career high 9 TO, 1 away from the tainted triple double, or whatever the hell you would call it, anyway it is not good
OTOH, Scoot 6AST/2TO, also has two steals. Just don’t ask me about any of his other stats
Shouldn’t a STL negate a TO, when calculating a players A/T ratio?
Boo birds out, after 3rd? consecutive sloppy TO. PHI up by 16. POR up to 18 TO.
Was that Reggie Jackson? Nice alley oop pass
PHI up by 19 after the 3Q

First game he's back and we are down 20. Predictable

Oh, I see Bert Kolde is in the house, yay
OK, that was funny, Cronin turned so fast to watch RW3 run into the crowd, please don’t get hurt!!!!
Simons hitting shots, 21pts, 4-8 3pt, surely some team will want to give something for him? Please?
Deni with a nice corner 3
RW3 with bad TO there, don’t see too much of that from him
Billups going with two center lineup, why not just bring in DC and make it a triumvirate?
How does Maxey get that open? He hits the 3 & now PHI is now up by 21.
Now would be a good time to take RW3 out of the game, let’s keep him healthy
Sharpe back to his bad shooting 3pt ways, 1–8 3pt, otherwise 4-6
How many times does Cronin/Billups have to see it? Simons is not a go to/#1 scorer? Never seen a guy like that go ISO as many times as he does and get blocked
10 TO by Avdija, just don’t get 3 more rebounds and you’ll be just fine
Embiid makes scoring 37 look so effortless
Paul George though, not impressive, I would not want to be paying him what they are right now
Ugh, Chauncey, might be time to put the young-ins/bench players in right now?
Nice steal by Scoot there, 3rd of the night
Bench players are in, game is over
Duop, doing a little scoring, hopefully justifying that he is worth 1–2 2nd round picks?

Chauncey is just so damned cringe…Laughing it up with opposing players while his team is down 20, meanwhile playing his stupid no-offense twin towers lineup.
Just get this fool out of here already. He doesn’t wanna be here and nobody wants him here either. The team will do plenty of losing, no matter who the coach is, on lack of talent.
The positives? Despite his low scoring night, Scoot seems to have turned a tiny corner in the past 3 games on both sides of the ball. Sharpe is embracing his mid-range (great) but taking too many OTD 3pters (not great). Whomever the coach is, needs to prioritize getting Sharpe in C&S possessions.
Lastly, Sixers obviously are aware of Deni’s tendencies. They came prepared for his DHOs…I think that’s the first time we’ve seen a team prep for that this season. Deni will be on the scout now, so HE will be the one to have to adjust, since Billups isn’t going to do piss to counter it. He’ll just keep rolling out the same old milquetoast, playing his vets too many minutes, and yukking it up with whomever is in the vicinity in huge losses.

Or maybe it's the 6th time this season that Embiid, Maxey and George have played together this season.
