Defense ? We need buckets lol

Regular Season:

Position/Starters/Bench

PG- James Harden (30)/De'Anthony Melton (18)
SG- Tyrese Maxey (32)/De'Anthony Melton (14)
SF- Matisse Thybulle (20)/Danuel House Jr. (20)/Tobias Harris (8)
PF- Tobias Harris (24)/PJ Tucker (16)/Georges Niang (8)
C- Joel Embiid (30)/Montrezl Harrell (10)/Paul Reed (8)

Playoffs:

Position/Starters/Bench

PG- James Harden (38)/De'Anthony Melton (10)
SG- Tyrese Maxey (40)/De'Anthony Melton (8)
SF- Danuel House Jr. (30)/Matisse Thybulle (10)/Tobias Harris (8)
PF- PJ Tucker (26)/Tobias Harris (22)
C- Joel Embiid (40)/Paul Reed (8)

I am still hoping the Sixers trade Tobias for a wing who can shoot before the deadline. Thinking they'll look to do that if they can find the right player and PJ doesn't look washed.

We need a backup pg too

LeTimmAy · Post #84 » by **LeTimmAy** » Wed Sep 7, 2022 3:08 pm

Harden, maxey, Milton, Melton.

Not perfect after Harden but it should be doable with embiid and Harris.

Need a back up point guard and some legit sized smallforward wings.

The Sixers better be committed to not playing Harden, Embiid, or Tucker more than 30 minutes/game. Who cares about the regular season. Morey needs to convince Doc and the players that they need to save something for the playoffs.

I just thought of this Niang was pretty nice with Tobias as a forward combo in the playoffs definitely keeping him as a shooter. He can play 3-5 in situations.

Tobias/ Niang/ House at the 3 /4 / Tucker / Reed / Harrell at 4 / 5 .. small ball supreme . Big girthy team lol

76ciology · Post #88 » by **76ciology** » Thu Sep 8, 2022 4:51 pm

Starting 5:
Maxey-Harden-Tobias-Tucker-Embiid

Bench units:
Rockets East Line-up
Harden-Thybulle-House-Tucker-Harrell

Sixers OG (original group) line-up
Maxey-Melton-Tobias-Reed-Embiid

End games/halves using extreme line-ups to create mismatch:

Play Microball
Maxey-Harden-Melton-Tobias-Tucker

Play Small
Maxey-Harden-Melton-Tobias-Embiid
OR
Maxey-Harden-Melton-Tucker-Embiid

Play Mid size
Maxey-Harden-Tobias-Tucker-Embiid

Play Giant:
Harden-Melton-Tucker-Reed-Embiid

I think Reed will play PF. He played PF on SL. And he’s more natural as a PF. He also shot well from 3s in G-League

LeonJordanJr24 · Post #90 » by **LeonJordanJr24** » Fri Sep 9, 2022 5:24 am

Niang being effective as a big 3-5 floor spacer in the playoffs and Reed being able to play 4/5. Makes Korkmaz the odd man out. Bassey isn't needed nor is Joe. Shake can be a ok depth guy because he can play 1-3 in a pinch. But can be upgraded for a PG/ scorer for bench.

Thybulle if he isn't decent on offense can kick rocks too .

LeTimmAy · Post #91 » by **LeTimmAy** » Sat Sep 10, 2022 6:43 pm

Harden 32/Maxey 8/Milton 8
Maxey 24/Melton 24 +joe
Harris 20/House 14/Thybulle 14 + Korkmaz
Tucker 20/Harris 12/Reed 6/Niang 10
Embiid 30/Harrell 14/Reed 4 + Bassey

Harden 32
Maxey 32
Harris 32
Embiid 30
Melton 24
Tucker 20
House 14
Thybulle 14
Harrell 14
Reed 10
Niang 10
Milton 8

We're deep.

Players don't play 82 games, so a prediction on players' MPG doesn't need to add up to 240 minutes (48 * 5). There are 48*5*82 = 19680 minutes in the season. The bench players will end up with a higher MPG than most people are predicting, because the starters will all miss some games, whether for rest or injury. It will end up something like this:

Code: Select all

           GP   MPG   MP
Harden      72   32   2304
Maxey       78   32   2496
Harris      78   32   2496
Embiid      66   30   1980
Melton      72   20   1440
Harrell     70   20   1400
Tucker      70   20   1400
House       70   20   1400
Thybulle    66   20   1320
Niang       60   18   1080
Milton      60   14   840
Korkmaz     50   10   500
Reed        50   10   500
Bassey      24   8    192
Springer    20   8    160
Joe         20   6    120
Queen       13   4    52
         
                     19680

Long season, not predicting what the numbers look like for all 82, but if you're asking what they will look like at full health in close regular season games against good teams (like against Boston and Milwaukee games 1 and 2)

Embiid 34
Harris 36
Tucker 28
Maxey 37
Harden 37

Melton 24
House+Thybulle 15 combined (one may just play all of them)
Niang 15
Harrell 14

Thybulle has the biggest variable here, if he has a good camp I could see them deciding to start him again could also be completely out of the rotation.

Would be such a shame to bench Reed again this year and then realize in the PO that he and Tucker are the only viable backups. He needs these minutes to improve. Exactly the reason why I don't like the Harrell addition.

If Reed can play he can earn minutes at the 4 or 5. Last year the only gripe is really the last 2 months after the trade. When they had Joel and Drummond, they had a great situation. After the trade it became a hole again. They have milsap a few weeks, then DJ like a month of just hoping he could put up similar stats to what he had that same season with LA. Plus it's clear that Harden doesn't want to play with Reed, in his lineup. Harden pretty much recruited DJ and has recruited Montrezl.... And Doc pretty much confirmed that in the playoffs.... Saying that the players advocated for DJ.

I can even say though that I feel that read should get some opportunity, if the defense really showcases that it is lacking without Joel

We’ll the roster is set, so I’ll give my rotation:
PG. Harden 20 mins @PG.13 mins @ SG
SG. Maxey 33 mins @ SG.
SF. Harris 28 mins @ SF. 7 mins @ PF
PF. Tucker 28 mins. @ PF.
C.Embiid . 33 mins @ C
The bench looks like;
Melton 28 min.s @ PG.
House 18 mins @ SG,/SF
Thybulle 18 mins. SG/SF
Niang. 13 mins @ PF
Harrell 10 mins@ C
Reed 10 mins @ center
Milton DNP
Korkmaz DNP
Before I get a lot of kickback I know the numbers don’t actually add up. They don’t have to. There is plenty of days guys will sit either for rest or injury. Hopefully mostly rest.

Would love to get Embiid to around 30 a night

ProcessDoctor · Post #98 » by **ProcessDoctor** » Tue Sep 27, 2022 11:45 pm

If I had to pick 10 dudes and make the minute allocation somewhat realistic...

Harden(32)/Melton(16)
Maxey(32)/Melton(8)/Thybulle(8)
Tucker(24)/House(16)/Thybulle(8)
Harris(32)/Niang(16)
Embiid(30)/Harrell(18)

With Reed as the 5th "big" playing either behind or next to Embiid when we want D > O.

That’ll be dependent on us kicking ass like the Bucks did during the Giannis MVP years. It’s just gonna be a losing battle to fight Embiid to stay on the bench in a competitive game.

I'm more concerned about Glenn than Joel or any player, for that matter. It needs to be hammered home that seeding takes a backseat to being healthy and rested for the playoff push, which sure as hell needs to go beyond the second round in the next couple of years. The tone has to be set early that everything is about the playoffs, individual accolades and coaching W-L be damned.

Somehow I don't feel confident this will be the case, but we'll see.
