How you've been sir? I hope all is well


Let's just say watching games hasn't been a cure all for a few personal struggles, but it's nice to get my mind off a few things.

Embiid makes everyone he played look underwhelming. What we needed to add was a big body at C to back him up, but Marks is just really bad at his.

Clax has been meh. This is why he shouldn't be untouchable in a trade. Can't guard Embiid one on one, can't hit ft throws, can't shoot and stretch the floor

This team doesn't know what boxing out is.


And this is something that they were supposed to be challenging themselves to do, but i guess that went out the window when the trades happened

Bridges takeover. This is the best part about him post trade. He knows when he has to take over and he's absolutely capable of doing so.

Our guys really playing well as well can be.

We see the strategy on defense and our length is giving issues to Phil imo

The 76ers 3pm are the difference here, they are shooting at high clip and contested too

The effort is there, need to keep our scoring up

Imagine if we had Lillard in this game with him.

If this is really what Mikal is, adding a Dame or Butler might actually before a bigger needle mover than we think. Let's see if Bridges can sustain this though.

I'll also see if Clax can actually show something but he's def not untouchable.

We're still alive at least. Everyone was so focused on stopping Embiid, it felt like they relaxed once he passed the ball. The game plan was fine but the effort wasn't good enough. We need to make these guys drive. They hit 13 3s that half. Only 1 or 2 were tough shots.

Good to see Mikal cooking. He carried us.

Agreed. Sometimes teams get hot. Just need to hope for some regression from their 62% from 3.

We also can't win shooting 57% from the FT line, albeit on low volume.
