Really sucks when the officials only allow one team to play defence.

Watching Philly's offense is pretty beautiful. They fill spaces, they pass, and they move without the ball.

Don't know how they'll do in the playoffs though since they haven't developed a winning culture.

That's a great reason not to want a very productive player.

3 years on and we're still waiting for the Bucks to replace Ersan, Zaza and Dudley.

Wow! When were we talking about wanting a player or not?

538 wrote a small article pointing out how good they are at fake handoffs which is just another wrinkle in what they do offensively.

Philadelphia uses plays like these quite often. In fact, the Sixers ranked fourth in the NBA in fake handoffs per 100 possessions during the regular season, according to Second Spectrum and NBA Advanced Stats. And among teams that used fakes at least 200 times, the Sixers led the league in efficiency on such plays, scoring just over a point per fake.

I think if you replace Thon, Dj Wilson, and Bazz (or whoever filled that spot) this year, we could very well be playing the Cavs in round 1.

Crowds at Laker games and Sixer games should never ever chant..."refs you suck!"

Watching Miami's defense is pretty beautiful. They close spaces, they defend passes, and they follow off-ball movement.

Don't know how they'll do in the playoffs though since they don't have an All-Star.

Spo is a master. Knew this wouldn't be easy.

TD75 · Post #398 » by **TD75** » Tue Apr 17, 2018 1:11 am

If Miami does not start getting fouled out they have a good chance to take this one.

Ayt · Post #399 » by **Ayt** » Tue Apr 17, 2018 1:12 am

Philly is going to need Simmons to start dominating the ball to make things happen if the refs are going to let Miami play this physically off the ball.
