Good to see them get the lone shot that Elfrid Payton hit during practice today.

Is the game Wednesday one of the scheduled TV games? Or at least in an NBA arena?

Seems like they're not showing jumbotron feeds this season so we're screwed anyway.

It's one shot by Elf but his stroke looked much improved. We won't truly know for a while, but I am not one bit surprised that our team looked much better with 3 starters back.

We should really have a thread for posters that are "fanemies" at this point. It's disgusting.
A ground up rebuild takes a while and you need a lot to go your way in that time.
As recently as maybe a month ago, philly had NOTHING going for them, then Embiid plays a preseason game and everyone loses their minds again.
It can happen just that quickly for us too and I'm going to be equally disgusted at all of you bandwagon "fans" when we start winning games and you all want back in--maybe then you won't be bashing every player on our squad or trying your best to reach for something negative when we see our guys hitting jumpers and playing well.

Did anyone see that the OSen said that Ibaka was out because of a knee to knee impact. That's a good sign.

The poster above you is so bad at posting here and such a negative person that I wonder why he even posts. Most likely to troll and annoy people.

Ibaka is going to fine and I believe he is going to make a significant impact to this team as well.
