I don't envy the Sixers right now being the main team that the city is focused on for the next 2 months or so. I bet the crowd at the WFC is going to be slightly more downtrodden than they normally are for obvious reasons.

Anyways, I wouldn't be at all shocked if we dropped this one especially since it looks like Embiid might be out tonight.

Rockets +13.5 is easy money.

Sixers better win this one by 20 or they're getting booed off the court by pissed off locals. Collateral damage.

Funny story. Eagles fans were keeping Jabari Smith up last night lmao. May be a good or bad thing for tonight.

Super excited to see Doc coach ‘em up, especially if Joel sits

It’s times like this I feel lucky to have an elite HC like Doc

We don't have RPM data for coaches, but Doc is not as bad as you guys think. Reality is, this team is flawed and it's on management.

Embiid plays, also Shake who had issues on the eye from the Claxton play

He’s an amazing coach.

PJ Tucker is a real asset

Poor entry pass to Joel

Deflected/stolen

Dunk at the other end

You have to be an idiot to question why he starts

Sengun can’t guard Embiid. There’s your game plan right there

You only need to run the numbers really, PJ Tucker is at around -3 RPM, matches the eye test, starting him is nuts

Tucker stinks

Wow harden dispatched that guy like a rag doll.

Wow, PJ Tucker man. He sucks so bad.

Huh?

Through his first 7 minute stint he has:

0 points on 0 shots

No rebounds or assists

1 Turnover and 1 PF

I’d say that’s solid

Harrell is better than Tucker, it's just that with Embiid the fit is worse, but that's all there is, as an individual player there is no doubt in my mind Tucker is inferior.

It gives me hope I can still make the league

P.J. Tucker is the worst player in the entire NBA playing 20+ minutes per game.
