Second chance points are keeping the Sixers in this game

Fernando is such a massive negative that unless we're playing Embiid or Jokic, I'd much rather Mogbo get the backup minutes at the 5 until Olynyk comes back. I realize that they're trying to develop Mogbo's wing skills, but I'm not sure how much more I can take of Fernando.

There is nothng wrong with wanting to see more than 11pts from our franchise player on a team with 3rd stringers

Wanting more and saying he has no impact are two different things....

Scottie Barne's impact is disappointing given his expectations

just my opinion

1.5 games.

just my opinion.

14 turnovers that half, over half of them were easily avoidable.

True, but 7 of them were from Gradey, Mogbo, and Shead. Young players are going to make mistakes. It's all part of the process we're going to have to live with. But I'm confident that all three are smart enough players that they'll learn from those mistakes and keep getting better.

Yeah, going to have to live with some mistakes especially with the emphasis on moving the ball and pushing the pace the way we do.

it requires 0 courage to try to bait a shaq comp out of me duff and balls of steel to remotely suggest there could be the possibility of a similar level of production despite us being in the 3 point era

lol. I didn't bait a Shaq comp out of you. You said it yourself.

And it's not balls of steel. It's insane.

i literally was higher on mogbo than anyone on this board and i'm getting flamed for wanting a player i was even higher on

You're getting flamed for saying Edey has the potential of Shaq "if used right" and claiming Filipowski is an obvious star.

Yep, the Raptors' defence has actually been pretty good. Just need to finish the possession.

[Tripod]

Mogbo is a lot like early days OG to me. He has some special feet and strength on defense. He just needs to iron out the shot and make smarter plays on offense but based on defense alone he needs to play.

Agreed. Has clear limitations but he's aware of them and plays within himself for the most part. Potential is definitely there.

Yeah the "aware of them" part is very important.

It's what drive people nuts about Precious. Didn't play within himself until he went to NY. Nurse didn't reel him in.

[GIZMO]

Man, Walter is really staying under the radar. Hopefully he just comes out and shocks everyone with his play. We forget he was drafted in the first round over all these other rookies lol

He looked pretty meh in preseason. Didn’t really see any nba skill that stood out

So did Gradey. Patience.

LOL Gradey was good in preseason when he played.

To take the leap into superstardom and or be the face of the franchise he needs to score in an offence first league

He hasnt shown me any improvement from last year, skill wise or mentality wise, this aint 1.5 games into a rookie season

Until Mogbo starts jacking up 3s like Precious did, I'll take Mogbo any day.

Maxey's got 19 already, dang.

Ah Poeltl! Gotta finish that ****.

[Vampirate]

Not hard to spot haters

You guys are so corny

There is nothng wrong with wanting to see more than 11pts from our franchise player on a team with 3rd stringers

The criticism here is worth it, mostly because

1. He scored all that in the 1st
2. You know he's capable of more, this is the same guy that can put up a Jokic stat line on any given night

[bargs4mvp]

Scottie put that on a **** platter and purtle blows it lol dunk it man

Cmon poeltl. Rough start.

[Boardbreaker]

Yak must have had a pint at half

[Tor_Raps]

People gotta stop expecting Barnes to be a 1st option scoring wise... he'll give you everything else but that.
