Gross half. Making Sixers look like the 90s Bulls.

Thanks, Jaylen, for giving up a wide open corner three.
At least Hauser appreciates you standing 3 feet behind him to help.

Honestly this might be the worst half of basketball I've ever seen defensively

Well I think some adjustments can be made, plus playing at this pace we need more bench

The team felt bad about blowing out the Bulls so they thought they'd give the shorthanded Sixers a chance.

Gave up 72 points at half to a Pat Bev led team. That is grounds for relegation

Offensively they’re lucky they’ve hit some threes because with Tatum and Brown it’s like watching a repeat of them forgot how to play ball in the ECF

Both Jays careless with the ball

JT 5 TOs and JB 3 TOs.

I would throw chairs and turnover tables at halftime if I was Joe. Absolutely disgraceful half of basketball by the home team.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

There's no way Jaylen Brown has only 3 turnovers this half.

Just tuned in. Do I dare ask what's happening and why the Sixers without Embiid scored 72 on us in the 1st half?
