  1. Q1: šŸ˜€

    Q2: šŸ¤®

    Q3: šŸ˜

    Q4: šŸ¤—

    May Joel be intact.

  2. Calcutta637

    I just like this sixers team. Wish we as a fanbase could galvanize over not being overly critical and just riding with the boys but I understand

  3. Joel injury diagnosis on his knee gonna hit like a shotgun to the chest

  4. GirlWithGame

    I just don’t understand how Embiid makes 38 points look so easy to get to. He’s insane. Hopefully his knee is okay. He had a bad ass block afterwards too. The team played lock down defense at the end there. I stand by what I said they don’t go 100% on defense.

  5. bruhboi2222

    morris shouldn’t play. springer and roco over him all day

  6. Maxey and Joel are a scoring machine. 38 and 30. They barely break a sweat while doing it. Melton, Oubre, & Batum are the perfect compliments to what they do…

  7. SquashForDinner

    The rebounding that game made it WAYYY harder than it should’ve been. The hawks threw up 17 more shots than us despite turning the ball over more because they kept getting every rebound lol.

  8. November_Coming_Fire

    Reed had a rough game. Hope he can bounce back from that.

  9. Finished the game off strong. No idea why Roco isnā€™t getting minutes over Morris. Hopefully we can ramp up Oubreā€™s minutes cause we look good when heā€™s in the lineup.

    Iā€™m sure Jo is fine as well.

  10. mastermind208

    Sometimes we take Joel for granted y’all, he was clearly playing through discomfort towards the end but was clutch on both ends to get the lead. 38 pts 14 boards 4 blocks but it doesn’t even feel like a crazy game for him anymore

  11. Local-Cartographer52

    they have to get answers on the Cov minutes. WHAT IS GOING ON MAN

  12. Writerly13

    Has anyone asked nurse in postgame interviews why Roco and Springer arenā€™t playing?

  13. thundercockjk2

    I’m happy for the victory but boy do we REALLY need to get back to the 8-1 Sixers. That was some Brett Brown, Doc Rivers bullshit out there. Not enough movement, not enough cutting, heavy carry by our stars and Maxey hasn’t adjusted to the lane closures yet. Give us a backup PG and some practice and we may be alright.

  14. bravof1ve

    Embiid was beasting but this team looks like they havenā€™t tried since the Lakers

  15. ApoTheAnswer

    All cool but if we could avoid losing a quarter by 18 we could win without having to rely on our starters until the end.

    That said, Iā€™m impressed by how well we defend when we decide to try hard on D and Iā€™m ok if weā€™re not doing it for 48 mins in December, Iā€™m less impressed by our offensive game, still a big improvement from Riversā€™ atrocious offense, but we have big stretches where we donā€™t move the ball enough and make it easier for the defense. Hope Nurse can fix that with time

  16. MaxeytoEmbiid

    Game thoughts:

    MVP: Joel Embiid. Forget the scoring, 14 rebs and 4 blks(and countless unnamed deflections). Just absolutely insane and inspirational defense on that end of the floor. We know Joel’s a gifted scorer but when he defends/rebounds like that it’s inspiring and it’s a total game changer. I know, we gotta see it in the playoffs but you can’t rush it, enjoy and savor that he’s bringing it every game this year.

    Nick Nurse issues:
    Bro, I’m done with this shit. The Bamba+Morris lineup was even beyond Doc-levels of terrorism. I don’t know what happened to you(starting with the OKC game) but I’m done being patient. Your substitutions drive me insane. Please go back to the pattern pre-Oubre injury.

    Morris is a DNP-CD, Bamba is a DNP-CD. Stop it. If you don’t trust Reed, go small. But those two can’t touch the floor, much less together. I love everything about NN except being the worst lineup decision maker of the Joel Embiid era.

    Tyrese Maxey: 30/8, but honestly it could’ve been as many as 14 assists. Guys were selling on quite a few advanced reads by Maxey today. As a PG, he was flawless. Defensively, he battled. Bogdanovic made some tough shots. Maxey had some off-ball issues, but he battled.

    I’ll take that effort defensively, even if it didn’t translate accompanied with the elite offense we’re getting.

    The role players:

    Oubre/Batum/Melton/Bev did their things. Bev has just been amazing the last couple of games. What a total game changer. Oubre’s been such a fan favorite from game one. Oubre should be getting these Morris minutes.

  17. Need to hear Nurseā€™s reasoning behind starting PJ Tucker earlier this season but DNPing Cov for a team that is dreadful defensively right now lol

  18. ArroganceIsPotent

    Ngl nurse has been doing some questionable things recently

  19. Bi-SportsFan

    Glad to have the win but oof I hope Jo’s knee is ok

  20. That final score does NOT do a good job telling the story of that game. Another game that seemed way harder than it should have been in the end, but I don’t wanna start complaining about *how* we win. Looking forward to the next game.

  21. 50millionbricks

    First Sixers game on Monday after heading over from the UK. Is there any realistic chance Jo plays? Havenā€™t seen any of tonightā€™s game so no idea how bad the knee looks

  22. MontresorsRevenge

    Everyone (even Morris and Bamba) has to play so that they can be showcased for January 15th. If you don’t do that, then you risk having to give up more picks to get a ball handler/another big/3 and POA defender. They are putting lipstick on a pig in hopes of going to the fair and getting something in return.

  23. CPTHoagie

    Embiid doing the post-game interview to me says he’s okay.

  24. GirlWithGame

    What is Embiid saying in the interview I’m driving home from the game so can’t listen. I need updates šŸ˜‚

  25. PensiveinNJ

    I would give Embiid a knee transplant if he needed it. I mean I don’t think my knee is actually built to handle his frame but the sentiment is there.

  26. BassGuru82

    This is the 3rd game in a row Tobias Harris only attempted one 3 pointerā€¦ ONE!!! He can suck at everything else but for the love of God, shoot more 3s!

  27. shadowarmy229

    Bruh I thought Jokic was gonna play well again after his previous disasterclass but my god heā€™s playing like the Monstars stole his powers for themselves, he canā€™t even make his usual shots now smh

    Iirc heā€™s playing through a wrist injury, if he is that wrist is truly fucked

  28. ExtraRice

    Love having Pat Bev, always hounding Bogdan and Murray not letting them get hot or cool them down.

  29. We win and won my Tobias under the points bet, what a bum he is lol
