Even though they always seem to start slow, they actually are well above.500 in these matinee games over the past few seasons

I hate these matinee games. Pro sports should be played in the evening.

[KL2]

Tucker out and Powell is back.

Ugly start. My word.

Who knew we’d need to get Oubre in foul trouble just to have a chance here.

We need more Mann challenging Bamba.

Guys gotta move to an open spot when they’re doubling and trapping Leonard like this.

Out classed. Out worked. Shameful.

[esqtvd]

The usual. Down by 12 after one. Not playing defense yet. Should be close to knotted up by halftime if they hold true to form.

[KL2]

I’m out. This teams effort is a joke.

The sun is out. A walk in the park is just the thing.

Clippers keep tying up the game, but they can't take the lead. 76ers have picked up on this, and are now using it against them as a psychological taunt.

Their only hope is to draw an ejection: 3-0 when either an opponent's player or coach is tossed, or theirs.

Sixers want to make this a statement game and it’s going to look really bad if we lose against a team missing their best player

[Scoundreldays]

Why does PG makes shots so difficult. Literally two guys on him and he chucks up a 3 and airballs.

Gilbert Arenas talked about this at one point, and I agree: it's all about trying to be "revolutionary." I know it's on Twitter, but I can't find the exact quote. Anybody have it? He talked about it on his podcast recently.

Seems every team gets to make those statements against us. Can't win 3 in a row, another game with poor rebounding and everyone else on the other team hot AF. How does this always happen?

defense, defense, defense

Sixers shot 53%/49% with only 8 TOs

seems like routinely that poor shooting teams light it up from 3 vs the Clippers. Started on a really bad note and then they let go of the rope in the 4th. Another horrendous performance.

Also, why does Cam Payne play like a hall of famer every time he plays the Clippers?

You just don't lose games like this, nothing else to say

We played good for almost a quarter & a half!

Can’t take that away from us

[NickP]

WT€? Why aren't all our games against the Blazers?

[LamarWho]

Did not see the game but listened on the radio for the 1st quarter. Nothing surprising about this game whatsoever. This is a sub .500 team keep looking for that imaginary switch to flip on.

Low IQ plus lack of offensive system will do that to you.
