Can someone explain to me why Brooklyn is only a 1 point favorite over Dallas, with only Durant out right now, while the 76ers are an 11 point favorite over the Cavs, with Tobias Harris out.

Cavs have a dynamic backcourt, but their length is obviously a big issue. As long as we rotate well and close out hard to keep them from shooting efficiently from beyond, we should be able to contain them.

Sixers had issues with Cleveland last season. We barely one one came with them in the last seconds. And got blown out of a game when Embiid got hurt early in the first quarter.

We did blow them out in another game without Embiid.

So I don’t know what to expect this game.

Need to win out through the all-star break. Losing tonight would be atrocious.

Poor Jimmy. Now his slicked back hair is sticking out in the back and he looks like he has neck whiskers. Come on, hair/makeup people, do your job!

Furkan must lead the league in missed open threes on the third pass. Every time we swing it to him, he bricks it ha.

Trainer walking over to Jo during the stoppage. Just go ahead and F up my whole night.

It's so damn important to bury threes off the Joel double. Great job, Danny!
