The comeback started when they went away from their superstars

nurse should put in all his ball handlers so they can't hide dame.

if harden wasn't a jackass, his presence would cause alot of problems for the bucks.

Giannis would foul out of literally ever game in the first half if they called the game with parity. We need robot refs. But that would also probably be programmed with bias.

This should be 14-point lead by Sixers if Nurse took Embiid out of the game 3 minutes ago. Trade Joe L and Harden out of Philadelphia after this game, your fans deserve better.

Giannis is looking like sooooo afraid of Embiid inside the paint and Tucker taking charges that Giannis taking jumpers and missing badly - ruined it for Bucks and Sixers are hot from 3.

They should run the offense through Lillard.

That’s BS. Giannis threw the ball over the rim and caught it

I remember when Maxey first started in place of Ben. Kid put up 30+ like it was nothing.

Got the Sixers to win at +750, got the Bucks to win when down 8 at +250 because I don't trust Chokebiid and for good reason it seems...
