Game 16: Timberwolves vs. Sixers aka Walking Wounded 7:30 pm ET Game Thread

[Embiid P]

The one silver lining to both Harden and Maxey out is that our backcourt defense should be significantly better even though our offense will be exponentially worse. I expect to see a lot of Melton and Thybulle on Antman tonight. I wonder how Reed will fair on KAT?

[Sixteen]

Thybulle breakout game incoming. He's about to hit 3+ threes

Isn't Thybulle injured too? i hear he wasn't supposed to play yesterday and he basically forced doc to play him 4 minutes

Doc Rivers: I know why you're here, Shake. I know what you've been doing... why you hardly sleep, why you live alone, and why night after night, you sit by your computer. You're looking for him. I know because I was once looking for the same thing. And when he found me, he told me I wasn't really looking for him. I was looking for an answer. It's the question that drives us, Shake. It's the question that brought you here. You know the question, just as I did.

Tonight.....Shake awakens! It's happening

[youngcrev]

So... I guess Shake will be our 2nd star to stagger with Joel tonight since he's the only other player that can create a shot?

Read on Twitter

Tobias still out, this one looks really difficult to pull off.

We basically have a 9 men rotation right now, starters + Thybulle who is also rusty, Reed, Harrell and Niang

[Bum Adebayo]

My GOD that's awful starting lineup Embiid has to play with, poor man will get back injury soon having to carry so much trash.

[Mik317]

wonder what washed vet Morey will sign for Doc to overplay

[Mik317]

Shake **** his shot?

[Sixteen]

Shake getting confident and consistent again would be huge for our depth and potential trades. Silver lining in injury

[Murray_17]

Lol Gobert

[DCasey91]

There was a time when Shake was our best player from the bench.

Also Gobert most overrated player ever. Dude wouldn’t have a job if he wasn’t 7ft

Wolves are ass blow it up.

[Murray_17]

Joel is seeing passing lanes pretty well lately

[DCasey91]

Is Embiid evolving? Becoming a better passer is the most important thing in his development imo.

Maybe he knows he has to up his passing game in order to win MVP?

[Mik317]

Melton is a terrible initiator

[Murray_17]

House is single hand losing this one

[Sixersftw]

Can someone tell me what House and Rudy Gobert are good at?

[blargh]

House has really quick hands and feet for his size, but his defensive fundamentals are terrible.

[Murray_17]

Matisse need to take those shots
