What an absolutely disgraceful no-show in the biggest game of the year. At home, no less. SMH.

I feel like I say this every year but Smart should not be on this team again next year. Dude just costs us game after game after game.

Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

We gotta win this Qtr.

That wins us the game.
That gets us a shot at the next round.

Nice that the Cs, who can't make 3s, are doing well attacking the rim, but:

-- More defense is needed.
-- When Embiid comes back in, shot distribution might have to change.

Ya well what his 30 plus points aren't gonna quantify is how his bad starts set the tone for the whole game.

I was kidding. My bad
