Harden is not even an All star at this point. Sloppy passing, constantly picking the ball up in the paint instead of attacking. He just looks lost

He’s been driving all game. Tie game. Just drive and try to at least draw the foul.

Hawks are battling. They are down three wings, Hunter, Reddish, Bogdanovic, and a center with Onyeka; but only down one point at the half.

It's probably about time we acknowledge how spectacular Trae Young has been during this winning streak. He's been the 2nd best PG in the league, behind Steph of course.

He’s a way, way higher IQ player than people realize. Just 2-3 weeks ago it was all jokes about how much reffing has exposed him. Now he’s putting up an MVP worthy stretch. He’s a hell of a lot more well rounded than he’s given credit for. I personally think he may be a top 3 playmaker in the NBA.

goes to show you that the ref tactics wasn't what his game was based around. harden on the other hand is having a tougher time adjusting.

Is Embiid getting real calls to take 19 foul shots?

I think most on the board is coming around. Trae with 22 points on 7 of 11 from the field, 3 of 5 from downtown. That is in the 1st half...

I wish Towns got the calls that Embiid does on drives, it is honestly kind of insane. It is very similar to how James Harden would sweep through on drives; it is a foul, but it really kills the flow of the game.

This Wolves and sixers game has been terribly officiated. Calling ticky tack ****, then not calling real obvious fouls.

Embiid falls down a lot. Towns needs to study Embiid...
