Yes. Don’t forget Kyrie

In that case, no more wondering, it’s Kyrie.

Down a point, easy win. Let Embiid get his and don't worry about it. Paper tiger.

Need Tatum to hit shots, and need Smart/Jaylen to stop making unforced turnovers. And Rob not picking up dumb fouls.

It's like people haven't watched Tacko even in garbage time. Give it up. Tacko should be let go this offseason. Maybe give him a front office position.

7 turnovers in 1st quarter. If we can clean that up we'll be ok. We're hanging with these guys.

Let's hope Kornet/Wagner can hold their own vs embiid in 2nd quarter (he's gonna have to sit for a few mins cause i think he's played whole game so far) and time lord can stay out of foul trouble in 2nd half..
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Philly looked like the faster, longer, taller and flat out superior team in every way and you look at the score board and it's a 1pt game lol

We haven't even touched the paint in this game.

Sure, play Tacko for one possession, then after Embiid rams through him and dunks all over his head (which is gonna happen), take him out immediately.

Tacko doesn't have the speed or strength to contain someone as skilled as Embiid, let's not delude ourselves.

Three-ball is an equalizer. Philly don't take enough of them.
