Fully expect a loss. A win will be a sign they’ve really turned a corner into contention.

You never know who’s gonna play and who will sit it out before the game.

You never know what version of Embiid you are getting until the first quarter.

And you never really know if we can keep the game close or just call it a day, until the end of the third quarter.

This game has Harden playing 40+ minutes and Embiid 38 written all over it.

Is there a reason why Melton is on PG instead of Tobias?

Embiid looks like he doesn’t want to play but Harden has this offense humming.

clipps switching the 2 man game and is satisfied having Mann switch to Biid and playing zone

Sixers‘ defensive arrangement is interesting. Tobias on Mann and Harden on Morris? Probably baiting the Clips to test Harden’s underrated post defense and trying to see how Melton would fare against wings

My guess is we’re trying to see how good Melton can be defending big wings?

Melton is guarding PG, both teams are shooting great (no one playing defense again) and Maxey entered at the 5 minute mark

Clipps have Batum defending Embiid at C. Ok.

This is a good test for us. Especially defensively.

He needs help defensively if he's going to be the whole offense
