Our only hope is to continue to lull the Sixers to sleep with our ineptitude. When they start to drool, we strike.

Can’t believe I’m writing this, but Jeffries deserves more minutes. All of Curry’s minutes is a start.

So, it’s over. No chance at winning without so many players, but I do think the respectable final reflects Lee’s ability to make adjustments and get guys to keep trying to chip away. Enjoy the weekend, fellas.

Keep stacking these loses. I'm actively hoping we lose every game. It's what's best with this upcoming draft class. Flagg or Harper are worth it to me. So I hope we lose every game.

Another win if ownership didn't override the chance to win a game. Nice one from Salaun though.

I don't see you being disappointed more than 6-7 times the rest of this season.

I never understood legit wanting your team to lose with the lottery odds. If it was like the nfl draft I’d get it.

The replacements looked hungry. Fighting for NBA careers. Diabeté - Wong - Jeffries. Even Micic showing a little fight.

It’s very concerning that our two way guys are better than most of our rotation players.

Dylan Harper should absolutely be the pick if we get #1. I'm tired of watching this team when Melo is the only playmaker on the court. No wonder this guy is chucking 3's he's the only one who can dribble/pass on offense. I'm sure it's why he's settling for 3's so much. Get someone who can take the ball out of his hands so he can relax a bit on offense.

Hell I would even move Melo to sg so he can be the primary scorer. Have Harper run the point guard.


Don't mind me guys I'm just dreaming ahead. This team sucks right now.

No neither do I. We won a few games early because we were mostly healthy. It's just not gonna break our way that much. There's to much talent around the league and not enough on our roster. The talent we do have rarely plays together, so we don't build any chemistry. Also screw miles bridges. Get something for him, and that will be our win this year.

I just want a bottom 2 or 3 record not the worst. I'm not that horrible of a person.

He needs to do something before he’s fully established himself as a softy pushover. Would take a helluva pivot to go from lovey dovey togetherness > wins to a coach that actually demands execution and have it actually work on the players. I actually think that’s what Borrego tried and failed at too. He lost the locker room trying to make that pivot after goin soft on them for too long

At some point you gotta take some/most/whatever off the coach.

This bunch of players have been brain dead doofers through multiple coaches now. The common denominator is the roster.


I don’t disagree but if I had to pick between breaking up a Ball/Miller/MW core or Lee ill stick the the guys that have actually shown potential over the coach who has to this point failed to demonstrate or even communicate that has any capabilities beyond spouting motivational platitudes.

5 dimes were a team-high too. 2 steals tied for team-high. Good game from him tonight.
