It is almost like they purposely have gone for a lower seed to make sure Irving has more games just in case.

The only performance worse than Harden and Embiid tonight is Reggie and Marv Alert

Mostly Reggie tonight to Marv's credit, so far he hasn't called players by the wrong name. But Reggie just said Drummond and Steph came back to play for the 76ers tonight. He dead silence on the call for Durant's AND1 play on Embiid. Just horrific.

We really couldn't get a Van Gundy team together for a real basketball game? These guys should call the Lakers games they keep putting on national television that no one wants to see.

KD is ridiculous cheat code: contested fadeaway to the left, off the glass, in.

Last time I checked this is a regular season game. Y’all got hyped for nothing. Nets wanted this game more.

So KD has been great so far and has 25,14 and 7 game and I just thought to myself that it's still less than Jokic season averages

It’s better for the nets to be a lower seed. They’ll have Kyrie for 4 games instead of 3.

Nets are basically an upgraded version of what they started with last season.

That's why I called him out for throwing Ben under the bus. Everyone looked at Ben, fair enough, but Embiid also shrunk in big moments in the playoffs last season. Both guys should have been called out, Ben more than Joel, but both dudes failed.

Which never made sense, dude is career 44% from 3 in the playoffs including 50% last year.

Just wait until he plays next to a healthy Joe Harris next season and Patty Mills.

Lol.

I think trading for Harden was the right move but man what an overpay. They even threw in 2 FRPs.

This has to be one hell of a sobering night for Sixers fans. This is why you don't assume you're a lock to win the East because you beat the Timberwolves....lol.

As amusing as this has been to watch, I'm going to enjoy listening to Rights to Ricky Sanchez tomorrow even more. :-D
