Simmons won't even play. Nets should have held on. They would have waltzed their way to a Championship.
Harden quit on the team a while before the trade actually happen, it would have made no sense to hold on to a disgruntled player who was killing the locker room atmosphere and not playing hard.

Would have gone back to normal for the playoffs.

Another horrible take. Again. The locker room was disgusted with Harden.

It was never going to lead to a playoff run. He’d just fake the hamstring injury once again.

Fournier actually torching a team not named the Celtics is a good change! :lol:

Impossible to enjoy this game. Just zero flow with all the trips to the FT line.

What’s the all time free throw attempt record (adjusting for non intentional fouls like hack a Simmons hack a shaq or hack a chamberlain. Feels like embiid on his way to 30 free throws all the non intentional method.

Sixers are unstoppable with Harden & Embiid on the floor.

He's had a few of these this season...even when not playing Boston :wink:

But he went into a long funk over the winter and will always be a liability defensively

One perk of Embiid getting Mitch in foul trouble with Nerlens still banged up; more Randle-Toppin minutes 8-)

Those are always my favorite lineups to watch when Thibs throws them out there...even when they get wrecked.

Would love to see: Smallball 5 Julius, Obi & Cam at the forward spots, RJ as a big 2, and IQ (or Burks) as the guard...though with how hot Fournier is today, you can't really take him out for Reddish for too long.

Harden just bodybagged two Knicks players

Sixers bench getting a little exposed. Gonna be the Achilles heel, especially if Tobias Harris continues to underperform.

Refs being refs! Smh

It really makes you wonder about all the what ifs with that OKC team. Harden would have wanted out either way.

Didn't Harden say he was sold on him not having to carry the load coming to brooklyn? All of a sudden Kyrie is going Braveheart and KD is injured. It was inevitable.

And what do you think will happen when Embiid gets hurt or misses games? Lol

Probably the same thing :lol:

However i do think Kyrie doing what he is doing led to Harden making the decision not to stay at Brooklyn.

Free throw record watch for 2022

Morant had 25 free throws on Feb 16.

Embiid has 21 through 3 quarters. Will he set the record for 2022?

GotDaSauce · Post #94 » by **GotDaSauce** » Sun Feb 27, 2022 8:10 pm

Knicks with a lead? Who woulda thunk it?!

Bolts · Post #95 » by **Bolts** » Sun Feb 27, 2022 8:11 pm

The Knicks have shot more free throws and been called for fewer fouls. Maybe the Enbiid/Harden free throw crying should stop.

And he’s an idiot to do so. That doesn’t excuse the partying in-between games which annoyed KD and management. The lack of effort was inexcusable.
