There is NO coach in the NBA who whines more on the bench than Nick Nurse.

Danny Green and Al Holford somehow look like 5 years younger this season. They were moving so bad in the previous season(s) you thought they were close to retirement.

Embiid had more freethrows in the 1st quarter than the entire Raptors team had in 4 quarters

Sixers home broadcast showed the angle where you see Siakam clearly coming running in from behind and give a forearm shiver into Joel's back. It's nothing even close to questioning that Siakam pushed him in the back.

I'm pretty sure the Sixers gave Danny the season off to save him for the playoffs. Felt like he barely played this year

Lowry flops but he looks like a rookie compared to what Embiid and Harden are doing

Ok my link froze and only got to see the first slow replay so only noticed thobias (? I think) near him. :lol:

Still damn. They’re the better team but their go to move feels like is ‘FLOP’ sometimes

This was just posted two slots above your post:

I am SO FKN TIRED of hearing nothing but Raptors fans bitching about the refs. It is constant. It is INCESSANT.

It is BRUTAL.

It utterly destroys a thread...and leads to these kinds of smack fests.

Not even Doc can choke to a team led by Fred Vanfleet and Pascal Siakam. Series over
