The whole 3rd Q has gone by and we still never saw who is the Sixers end leading scorer. If the Sixers lose, everyone's gonna look at this stupidity lol

That's why. If you don't play defense, you don't play for Nurse.

They knew this was the game everyone wanted to see, so the Bucks/Pacers was the early game.

They should force NY to make OG an option by sticking Lowry on him on defense. That's very exploitable OG is more of a shooting threat which can be resolved by sticking a non defender on him.

Playing Reed with Embiid would help with the rebounding issues they've been having. They should finish with a line up of.

Embiid
Reed
Hield
Maxey
Lowry

Tobias Harris is a very bad basketball player. He's a complete non factor in a game he could easily use his size.

Scoring 17 points with 5 3s when so many of your regulars are struggling should offset that lol
