Brad Stevens fault. Too stubborn not making a coaching change. You can do the hard part getting rid of guys like smart and Rob but you don’t want to replace a division 2 coach who doesn’t run any plays or doesn’t call timeouts? There’s a lot of coaches out there..
Specifically this off season, when Joe embarrassed the NBA with his level of coaching in the playoffs.
He should have been fired the minute the ECF ended.
It didn't hurt that there were a ton of excellent coaching options to replace him with.
Stevens made a lot of mis steps as a first time GM. But keeping Joe as a coach this year was an all time one.

How about you convince us who should be coaching instead and make a logical argument for why we'd be a better team with that other guy as coach?
Before you answer, keep in mind we're #1 in the NBA in net rating and we'd be undefeated if White played the other night. So it'd be hard for any other coach to do better.
Our guys just aren't hitting open shots. If they were, we'd have the lead right now.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything

There’s a reason why I’m not a fan of that one-pass offense. There’s a trickle down effect. Thin line between getting a good shot off that and selfish bball. No one gets into a rhythm either. Ball has energy. Trust the pass.

Maxey shot it from the locker room.
But, there was a Foul before the shot.

should've been an offensive foul on Embiid and a lifetime disqualification.

Anyone can play bad but how can someone justified 300 million dollars for this performance. Other than being spoon fed a couple of fast break dunks he is beyond horrible..
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe..
