  1. What a game. Sorry for all the shit I talked. I didn’t mean it ❤️

  2. Guitarplay825

    I want a shirt with teenage mutant ninja Morris on it with him in that rebound pose

  3. Great team execution down the stretch. Bev earned every one of his minutes.

  4. GroundskeeperWilly93

    Thank you Mook. I’ve always said you’re an asset to this team

  5. Big-Beta20

    Marcus Morris Sr is everything that people pretended PJ Tucker was

  6. dumb_commenter

    Shocked we won TBH. We’re not the kings of close game. Wasn’t pretty but its a win

  7. GeneParmesan1000

    Maxey’s first 40-point game since 2022? They just forgetting the Indiana game this season?

  8. wawasmoothies

    It is not maxeys first 40 pt game in a year what are they saying lol

  9. bruhboi2222

    can’t believe Green didn’t chuck something up. why would u ever pass inside at that point in the game

  10. Pretty much everyone played well, which is pretty nice.

  11. No Joel with FVV and Jalen Green having ridiculous fake shooting and pulling out a win is crazy

  12. Cute-Contract-6762

    What a huge win. Incredibly performance. Morris is clutch. Maxey was phenomenal. Amazing win

  13. Calcutta637

    Sixers win. Haters in shambles. Tobias 20+ points in games since embiids been out. Haters in shambles

  14. Fella_in_Paris_

    Great adjustments by nurse at the end. Pet Bev you are a 76er

  15. vesthis13

    Tobias played well tonight, as much as people don’t want to hear it.

  16. Cute-Contract-6762

    Also someone predicted maxey forty bomb early in the game thread. Nice call

  17. uncle_tbag

    I see a lot of people shitting on Marcus morris in this sub and tbh he’s a walking bucket. Good bench player so far and he’s earned his minutes

  18. Nick Nurse with a coaching masterclass. And I know yalls were ripping Tobi in the 4th quarter but he put on a defensive clinic against Sengun.
