Honestly wtf is this at the end of the game it looks like Doc Rivers type nonsense. You have Pat Bev and Maxey in and that means you shouldnt need harris nonsense.

This team's late game execution is the #1 reason we lost that series against Boston. It's ridiculous...

Lack of ball handlers and lackadaisical play. Nurse can't be happy with this ending.

Say what you want about his shotmaking but Embiid is a "dog" when it comes to hitting his free throws down the stretch.

Late execution was bad but that Holmgreen shot with Joel hand on him was just stupid BS.

Great bounce back game all things considered.

Can't quite call the Thunder elite yet....yes, they have a very good record early on, and they played a clean game tonight. But even with league leading FG% (even on 3s), I don't expect that to last....the team still has a rep to build. That being said....a very solid game tonight.

I had us losing this one. We won, I was wrong and I'm happy about that. Holmgren is something special. Looks more like a power forward to me but what do I know?

Also, valuable development by Maxey there at the begining of the 4th, the entire defensive scheme of the Thunder was trapping him so Bev could be the primary offensive guy and Maxey still got the ball and shots.
I think is a matter of time for him to adapt to this new situation. He and Embiid seem more in sync too, so they're gonna get open shots from each other

He is a dog with Free Throws, the refs seem to love him for some reason...

I love the fact that Nurse is willing to challenge a call. Last season Doc would just look up at the big screen and wave his hand in disgust and walk away and the challenges came far and few between. Not this season Nurse loves to dispute a call. Good for this team.
The Accession of Paul Reed is upon us !
Bring on the draft
Ready for Summer League
Ready for the season to start. ECF
You want it to be one way....but it's the other way.

I don't count the loss to the Wolves the other night. Nurse has had us in every game so far this year. Not one blowout loss.

Very good win. Looked like we won it with maturity and experience (which is not something you'd usually say about the Sixers).
I really like this Thunder team. If they can keep it together, they're going to be contenders for years. But all depends on the owners.
Either way, good bounce-back game from Maxey who had a below-average last few games. Role players did their job, we hit 3s we needed to and locked them down when needed.
Holmgren is more NBA-ready than Wemby in my opinion. Has much better handles, shooting, and awareness on the court. But he plays on a better team too.
