Doing a great Joker impersonation. That's the next level for his offensive game.

Tobias does this same crap every year. Looks great against Portland in October then nowhere to be found when we need him. Sucks because the guy is clearly talented. Damn shame.

this is the best rebounding performace of Biid's career it feels like

Yeah I'm always happy to see him. He's the second Sixers coach I remember after Matty Guokas.

Although my feed showed Franklin doing a Michael Jackson in Thriller impression instead of the halftime show lol.

Matt Goukas! That's a blast from the old past! Jeez...I thought someone would have brought up Doug Moe by now, but he got canned 56 games into the season. Canned like Tuna! I'm sure he was never the same again! But when Clarence Weatherspoon is your best player, it's going to be a bad time.

Doug Moe era is a repressed memory lol

Even if Doug was good for us, he would always be a Nugget. Lynam and Guokas are Philly guys from the start.

Yea, but Embiid was lazy on that close out last game, so we should take the Knicks package.

Melton could start for some NFL teams with those dimes lol

The look on Tobias and Oubres face! Haha Jo, no wonder people hate him.

It's obvious Embiid has got a harsh dislike for Bobert Williams as he's continued to take years of abuse from the Celtics out on him.

No one can convince me Ayton, Williams and Brogdon want to stay on the Blazers :lol:

Kobblehead · Post #92 » by **Kobblehead** » Mon Oct 30, 2023 1:24 am

Thankfully this stupid organization didn't sit Embiid out for rest for the home opener.

ExplosionsInDaSky · Post #93 » by **ExplosionsInDaSky** » Mon Oct 30, 2023 1:25 am

Here's an idea...Let Melton take the last shot at the end of a game. Guy has been clutch with the clock running out.

Mik317 · Post #94 » by **Mik317** » Mon Oct 30, 2023 1:26 am

time to be that guy doe

aint getting **** from our bench sans Oubre....

Nurse is running these starters a little long in this game. Use the damn bench, man.

Mik317 · Post #96 » by **Mik317** » Mon Oct 30, 2023 1:28 am

too bad we will have to bring Biid back in when this is a 5 point game shortly lol

That's gonna be an issue because Biid can not handle heavy mins.

idk resting him hasn't prevented the playoff injuries either.

maybe forcing him into shape will make it so he learns how to play when tired...

Embiid has always gone after both Ayton and Robert Williams, now he gets to destroy them on the same team.
