I think Kyrie told the team he wanted to guard harden.

An underrated and not often talked about aspect of basketball is when players are farmiliar with eachother from being teammates in the past or just going head to head alot...

you KNOW who can and cant guard you and you KNOW when you cant guard someone.

Curry for sure knew... and those philly guys for sure knew. KD has that too, guys know they cant guard him. similalry with Kyrie also

Glad I was able to cash some with my bets today.

We are red hot right now. If Kyrie can play full time...watch out.

Expect the top 2 seeds to get uncomfortable winning games the rest of the way.

This is the Harden playstyle that works so well in the regular season when refs are liberal with their foul calls. But he always regresses from his regular season form in the playoffs, because he plays for contact first, not for scoring.


the nets know his tricks.

That was a glorious game. Really incredible on multiple levels.

First off, I LOVE how KD and Kyrie came out with full on alpha energy and established they were the best players on the floor. Their level of intensity alone was insane and then they were just operating like assassins. KD was the aggressive instigator, where as KAI was the silent killer. They were also playing excellent defense with so much attention for detail. That set the tone for everything and Philly were not ready for it. Embiid tried his best to match but couldn't keep up and Harden immediately wilted. When the leaders of your team come out and play like that, it's easy for the rest of the team to follow.

Our "role" players were just as intent to f**** Philly.

How did none of us talk about the Seth Curry game! Holy f***, had no idea he was so mad that his father in law traded him :lol: :lol: I had no idea Seth was capable of talking so much sh** but damn he was on one tonight. Every shot he made felt like a dagger. Wish he was this aggressive to shoot every night tbh

We knew Bruce Brown didn't like Harden and was glad he's gone and this game really showed that. Truthfully he's been excellent post trade/ASB and he continued that tonight. He basically eliminated Maxey and with Harden gone, he has full licence to push the pace on any rebound or turnover. That's truly where he excels because he is a good ball handler and can finish at the rim or make a good pass in transition. Easy offense.

I love Clax. Always have and always will. He has that alpha mentality, he just needs to have a stretch where he's healthy and gains continuity. He was soo good tonight in a big spot with Drummond out. He defended Embiid well but was also a havoc on any switch or with help defense (3blks 1stl).

All around it was a great team performance, with everyone chipping in. So much sexy ball movement too. Dragic missed shots but played his role well. Bench/6th man Patty is where it's at. Might have been Drummond's best game vs Embiid(and as a net). Was this also a James Johnson revenge game??? He also played his role well and wass 3-3 from 3! :lol:

Kyrie shutting down Harden is not something I knew he was capable of.


Go back and watch his D in the finals on curry those 2 years. and on middleton this past post season. when he wants to and in the playoffs he competes on that end

Bruce Brown started this game and played like 30 minutes.

Ben Simmons is Bruce Brown on steroids.

I wanted to go to this game, but balked at the price of the tickets. I can't imagine what's going through the heads of the 76ers fans that dropped all that money to go boo Simmons only to have to walk out in disgust after the 3rd quarter.

That's a parody site, btw.

Almost got me too TBH. It's well written.

Anyway, happy I caught most of this game. I see a lot of Philly fans dismissing this as 'just one game,' but I can't help feel they'll be in a world of pain a couple months from now, and then later down the road, after Harden resigns and his various issues start to crop up.

Ballsack goes around NBA twitter handing out heart attacks like they're appetizers at a business function. You can't even call it a parody account. His sh** is too believable, just straight up lies.

Can't be talked enough. Ben having Marks, Patty and KD literally hyping him up is big for him. Watching him actually smiling and being hyped during the game made me actually be happy for him. Going through mental stuff ain't no joke.

I feel bad for Harden. Philly ain't the place for choke artists. If you ain't giving it 100, they going to crucify you. And even if you gave your best while coming short, damn they still have bunch that'll be after you. There is no brotherly love there at all.

When I said he's work ethic ain't on the level where it supposed to be at age 33, Harden stans came at me full force. It took CP over a year to get over his hemi issue, this dude is heavy set and still going out during night to slap some booty? That 270m better be need to get signed ASAP :lol: . I feel like his game will take a huge hit in a year or two. He'd need to change his game too. I really doubt he'll be able to, his ego and habits just won't allow it.

Well, as we've said. Honey moon is over. Reality just slapped them in a face. If they won't fix that roster, Morey will get canned for sure. Just watching his narcistic/cocky ass getting fired will put a huge smile on my face.
