We have a relatively easy schedule the rest of the way. Need to take care of business at home.

LOL, figures, Nets don't have Durant, and Bucks don't have Giannis, and we start of the game by laying an egg.

You can’t have curry guarding Young. That’s pure stupidity

So Doc thinks Seth is going to be able to guard Trey? Why the hell are we playing drop coverage with Jo hanging back?

I swear the defensive schemes are mystifying at times with this team. Can anyone give me a good reason why Ben isn't always on the best player of the team? Feels like we just do this to fawk around.

8 rebounds to start off for the Hawks, compared to 0. Sixers clearly think the Hawks are just going to give them this game.

This is pathetic, this is exactly why this is not a championship team. Championship teams don't have these droughts. It should not be this hard to get a shot.

I also don't understand this...our worst defender (Seth) starts with guarding their best player (Trae). Is this some 4D chess?

People say it's to not show our hand in the playoffs. What idiot coach things we're not going to have Ben on the best player during the playoffs? Also heard it's to save him from foul trouble. He's one of the best defenders in the league, generally he's able to stay out of foul trouble.

What was going on between Jo and Collins, Jo seemed legitimately pissed, never really seen that.

Ah yes, the gameplan that beats us: completely shut Embiid down and force other starters to create offense.

Um, may want to get Simmons on Trae. Watch him go for 50, and Doc was like, yeah, we wanted to save him for the playoffs, and wanted to save Ben's energy.

This drop coverage is going to be the death of me. It didn't work with Brett, it will not work with Doc. Just scrap it now, when you still have a chance to salvage this game.
