Danny is gone though. We need at least one to make some shots and try to spread the floor


I'd 100% try Joe and Milton, and play Reed some PF with Embiid instead of Niang. They are just putrid defenders and barely worth playing when they shoot well. And neither has shot the ball well in a loooong time

What good is getting Harden when you allow a guy like Struss get that much pts

We won't reach that point playing at this pace.

Win or lose I’m proud of the Sixers. Embiid simply isn’t himself he can barely shoot. We are playing at basically a fraction of full capacity with Embiid and now Green out. Even if they win in 7 the get creamed next round. I’m satisfied with however this game ends.

I would be too if we were a young team on the rise but this is close to the end

Not only Harden: as much as I love Maxey, his defense is at best "meh"

I agree Niang is simply unplayable. Biggest missing piece is a solid wing. Should be top of the list in the off-season

Embiid's torn thumb is so sad man.

He''s a historically great midrange shooter for his size. Dirk/KD esque. It's so painful seeing him miss these freebies. Game just isn't fun knowing we're firing well below peak capacity.

Miami wins this third quarter and we're done. Through five games...they've been the better team every third quarter. It's been something sorely overlooked in this series. They have obliterated us every third quarter.

Niang a bad athlete anyways playing on a bad knee is just taking him out. He can't jump at all or shoot.

Green our best two way wing is dead now. Looked like a year+ long recovery type of injury. Possibly even a career ender at 35.

Need Harden/Maxey miracles here. Game is still in reach even with this aura being so miserable right now.

Embiid is 28. Let's calm down.

And we have to listen to trolls that claim he has no heart or lacks some inner quality to be a winner. Dude is playing with an orbital fracture, concussion, and torn thumb on his shooting and dominant hand. Probably has a strained back on top of it.

Yes whenever he dribbles the ball to his feet, its usually a sign
