Embiid thinking he's a guard has really killed the sixers, you got guards to do dribbling for you big man

He takes 3-4 three's a game and has every season. He isn't being forced out there, its part of his game (in his mind).

Morey should be fired if he makes this team go all the way to December 15 to look for more help

I personally like that from Embiid as once he knocks down the 3pt shot, it could open up the 3pt fake and driving lanes but they just not making shots tonight.

How can Philly's spacing look worse without Simmons out there?

It's almost as if one part of spacing is having perimeter shooters and the other half is having a guy that can get the ball to them in dangerous spots.

The irony was Morey was waiting for other teams to enter crisis mode. Hope philly fans can see the funny side here.

Spacing is not worse. Their passing has been horrible to the 3pt shooters so it negates them being open and then with shot clock running down, they are running around like headless chicken.

Give credit to Knicks' defense too.

playing them in back to back games, thus making the chances of losing drastically go up. Playing the same team back to back usually results in a 50/50 split of the games.
