Flexed into the national spotlight, tonight's game will be in ESPN. Embiid is out tonight but Philly is still a very, very good team. Let's show we belong on national tv more and get the win.

not a good start for my man sabonis, 3 turnovers without getting anything going (I'm counting that rebound off his fingers)..

and its almost never a good start for Duarte...just can't become anything resembling good despite the chances

I can’t remover the last time we’ve had such a poor starting SG combo of Duarte/Huerter.. both of them, garbage

Outside shots not falling again tonight, 1/10 as a team so far. 7 fouls for the Kings too leading to 8 early FTA for Philly. The pace is certainly in favor of Philly so far, our defense has been pretty good though if we can just stop fouling.

Ben Mclemore and Nik Stauskas lol.

We are not responding well to Philly's physicality. Too many turnovers, need to take care of the ball and find some easy looks.

Fox and Sabonis can't carry this team every night

Hopefully nobody convinced themselves The last 2 games meant anything. Beating Detroit and Charlotte is expected for 80% of the league.

Team is full of holes, and the team as a whole has effort issues.

This was a game sabonis should have dominated, but for whatever reason he looks lost and out of sync. They started 3-18 from 3 and kept shooting while Philly was being aggressive getting to the line.

Pathetic to lose like this with no Embid.

I liked how Keegan played in the 3rd quarter

Seems like every single role player for Sac is shook from all the trade chatter.

Fox - innate motor issues. last year it was on/off games. Now its on/off stretches (he seems to rise in the playoffs as that sparks hs motor, but without help in the regular season this team is iffy to make it).

Keegan's incremental improvement the only thing to see tonight

First bad game for Domas in a while, though he was hounded without a sound offensive game plan. still a bad effort

Down 25 with 6 minutes left. This team has shown no signs they can crawl back into this one. Empty the bench Mike.

Not buying it. Reality -

Barnes tons of miles, lost a step, never was good defensively. Shot still there, but rarely moves on offense.

Huerter streaky, having prolonged bad shooting. Terrible defender. Really a backup, should get 10 mins if shot not falling and 20-25 if it is.

Mitchell/Duarte - non nba level talent

Len/McGee- situational players, below average

Sasha- actually smart and can shoot, but predictably does absolutely nothing to help us defensively. Redundant.

The team was just constructed poorly. Live and die on 3, not a single defensive focus. They will still win games that the core 4 carry with crazy offensive performances, but they match up terribly against a portion of the league.
