WTF is Nick Nurse doing with these rotations? We're gearing up for a Pete Nance cameo at this point.

One team can shoot. One team can’t.

Hopefully this helps these clowns figure out they should be tanking.

Should of focused more on Maxeys speed advantage over Embiids size advantage. Just trading 2s and free throws

I swear, the best this team looked was mid January when Maxey was the pilot.

Because it was going thru Maxey who has a speed advantage. Playing it through Embiid right now doesn't make since, just slowing the ball down and wasting possessions.

Yes. I think Nurse knows this and thats why he run that Butler and Maxey unit to increase the pace.

It’s just easy to map us out on defense. Its very static.

Yabu also has lost his juice too and he was one of the main things keeping us in games prior too

The bigger the loss the better. Need the souls to be choked out of this franchise for this year. No close loss, blow out so we know how bad we suck.

I like this unit though. No holes on defense. 5 guys who can shoot. Harder for defense to read because you dont know who’s gonna be the one trying to breakdown the defense

Fire Nurse & Morey!

He plays hard and outside of getting hit by a car he also just plays in general. Our lack of athletic wings makes that all he needs to do to impress


He stinks.

Fighting to get in the play-ins to possibly face this team that you have no answers for is goofy

He stinks.

his lack of shot negates all of the good things he brings sadly. IIRC he is like the bottom 3 3pt shooter in the whole league man. Great dude it seems like and on a team full of emo babies his energy is great but it is what it is
