Dark can't solve the rebound problem.

He could have played Battle. Battle's defence would not have been any worse than Ochai or Jakobe.

22 second chance points was the difference in the game basically

Sure, but can't imagine he would have been as useless offensively

he was 100% hobbling....but sure you can still play him. I don't think Darko took him out because of that.

This team will go as far as its defense, tonight it was bad and the times it was good they couldnt get the ball. The offense i dont care about, they can put up points

Having Yak out against a team like the Sixers is a big loss. We needed that size. They put up a good fight though. Just didn’t execute down the stretch.

Pretty easily tbh. Good effort. Not even mad at this one.

Well no I’m lying. I’m becoming increasingly frustrated with BI’s lack of intangibles and both he and RJ’s unwillingness to box out or stay on their man.

That felt like a quick five seconds.

If Bi's not scoring he's not doing much else. Some people think he's better than DeMar when he was a Raptor, he's not.

Agreed. Seeing Ingram up close I realize why he has the stigma he does. He’s better as a second or third option. He just doesn’t do enough of the small things to be a leader. He doesn’t try to create for others. Doesn’t get in a defensive stance. Doesn’t dive for loose balls. Doesn’t box out. Doesn’t switch well on D. But he can score the hell out of it. Shrug.
not strong, only aggresive cuz the power ain't directed/ that's why, we are subjected to the will of the oppressive

With all the talk about their size at C. Embiid had 2 offensive boards, Drummond had 3. That's right around their normal averages. It's the rest of the team not hustling out there and grabbing loose balls. They let Trendon Watford grab 17 boards tonight.

starting cmb and playing him more would have at least helped the rebounding a little bit...but we decided to go super small to counter no poeltl and got crushed on the boards...i mean just poor coaching strategies

He's looked 1 dimensional but what he offers is also what we sorely lack. Just have to hope he gets better and shows improvement in the other facets as the season goes on.

This team needs to get bigger, they seem to be at a disadvantage every night.

If you were watching carefully, there was alot of good things in this game.

A Schuelded loss, that was winnable, is frustrating but still good.

well our starting center was missing. fully healthy, and not being on a b2b, we might've had a different outcome

Both Battle (especially) & CMB need to be getting more minutes (period).

these rebounds they're giving up are all loose balls, nothing to do with size


What about rim protection and help D? I wasn't talking about rebounding although CMB or Sandro would have at least helped.
