we lost off a tough shot by Tatum...that could have been made tougher with a taller defender on it or having someone blitz a double

not sure why after every loss the blame game has to start...sometimes you just lose lol. I think this roster isn't good enough but the fact that they fought back instead of just laying down is a good thing. They have shown that they can lock in and comeback from big deficits; which is something I didn't think we could do with this roster at the start of the year.

Maybe its due to me missing most of the game but I am not distraught after that loss for once


I never thought yo emo ass would be the voice of reason

What a time to be alive, the sky isn't falling, and also it's okay to say Boston is better..... for now

Trying to see it the positive way:

Embiid is also dominant against the Celtics (there were seasons it was different)
Harris seems to give Tatum a decent match-up on the defensive side
PJ proves valuable in these match-ups

But they are still better than us, and it's mainly because of their depth (at the wings) and the fact their bench can shut down ours. If Tyrese, Shake and Niang will offer us less than 25 points (12 on saturday), it will never be possible to beat them.

There is only 1 full player on this Sixers team. Embiid.

Harden counts as 1/2 a player.

Problem is, once Tatum starts trying, it's game over. He didn't even need to try, as they can beat us without good Tatum.

Huh? They are called role players for a reason... They all are players or they wouldn't be in the league. Donny McClung is more so a half of a player than everyone else on the roster. Harrell even is a player he is former 6th man of the year and a proven scorer. C'mon...

Morey should've made a bigger push to get Vanderbilt. It's an absolute joke he was a throw in for the Lakers. But that's how it typically goes in this unserious league. When top big market team wants something, top big market team gets it. Unless you're the Sixers of course. Then the league will step in and force you to oust your GM.

The NBA is rotten to the core.

It will be quite the blemish on LeCommish's Lakers tenure if they can't even get in the Play-In after that embarrassing restock their roster got at the deadline. I'd be taking the Lakers with the points almost each game through March. I just can't see the NBA letting them miss out.

Disqualified opinion for using Harrell as your example of a productive player.
