Every time I see Tucker, I truly can't believe he not only starts but gets the minutes he does.

The same issue as the last game, we mount these stupid ass disadvantages and then our defense isn't good enough to create stops for a comeback even when we score consistently

CJ for unanimous MVP Curry straight up. Who says no?
They say an analytics man doesn't have a heart, but I ran the numbers and nothing can be further from the truth - Sam Hinkie probably

Does doc really thing putting Harden with this unit is gonna solve the issue of Zion scoring like 300 against them?

Their lead will balloon to 17-18 and by halftime they'll be up by 14. During the third quarter we'll make a small run and have the lead trimmed to 9 by the start of the 4th quarter. During the 4th quarter their lead will grow back to 12 and once Jo comes in at the 7 minute mark we'll get to within 3-4. With about 1:34 left in the game we will be down by 2 with the ball. Jo will throw the ball out of bounds and give it back to them. CJ Mcollum will drain a 3 and swell the lead back to 5. After that Tobias will hit a three but get called for an offensive foul which leads to free throws on the other end. Pels win 118-111


I hate to be that guy, but I'm gonna be that guy. I'll see myself out.

I'm telling ya'll...Here we go....4th quarter, ya'll know the drill....We're going to be down by 12 maybe more by the time Embiid comes back in. We'll make a run, but it wont be enough. Game will be decided by a Joel Embiid turnover and a CJ three.
