Maybe they should have benched Booker since he put up a stinker game. Beal outplayed him significantly.

JJ is just among one of the worst GMs around that was lucky to have inherited a good team that he could ride their coattails to success but his failures to attract talent has been glaring for the past several seasons.


I remember when Yabusele dunked on LeBron in the olympics I said the Suns need to get on the phone with him. Sixers did though and got him for the minimum. He wouldn't be a bad 5 to have for depth, especially in Bud's offense.

As for Oubre, I don't think he parted on the best of terms.

That was the Tim Thomas, Diaw and Raja squad with some Eddie House mixed in. If Amare is healthy that year it’s over for the league.

Bud needs to bench whoever is not playing well whether its Beal or Booker or KD.

Dunn and Oso showed more heart than Booker did tonight.

It's a good start! Glad to see they finally made the move of Beal to the bench as many proposed here. It definitely helps when the offensive schemes are simplified with clear roles. Again, it's a good start, but we're still pretty far from where we need to be with little time left. Philly has not been good lately, but we pulled out a win with a more functional/ logical approach. And of course more balance throughout the rotations for a change. More work to do yet though.

This 1 game sample proves with 100% certainty that Beal off the bench is the answer. Next up championship.

Finally a **** win! It was a meh first half but we had a great 3rd quarter and we got a decent advantage until the end.

Beal was our best player tonight. Nice to see a big game from him coming from the bench.

Book couldn't score, 3/16 and some of those shots were bad selections. Recently he had another terrible shooting night ( IIRC 4/20) and that's can't happen anymore.

At least he created for his teammates with 10 assists. Last game 9 assists.

KD and Dunn played very good games and didn't force anything.

When he is of the mindset of being an attacking threat, he looks capable.

Book has been off all year. I still think he’s been holding an injury this entire season

Rough start, but the finish is more important.

Beal and Dunn with good games in their new roles. Nice. KD super efficient though he's lost a step on D which is bad considering our C rotation. Oso with a good game too. Now if they can turn Plum and Nurk into a dependable starter...

Still no idea why Booker is playmaking rather than focus on scoring with Jones next to him.

I can’t fall asleep so excited about this win. We are so back baby it’s not even funny. Charlotte probably fricking out not wanting to play us tomorrow after we came into Philadelphia and made them our B——-.
