Jo not beating the ducking allegations coming back for this just to sit tomorrow
Fuck it. I hope Jo does sit out tomorrow.
Bamba and Springer out? Trade!?!?!?!?!??!!?!?!?!!?!?
I just need an easy win before my blood pressure skyrockets tonight during the Eagles game.
I wonder if the sixers will win
Tobi still hot from last game
ACTIVE HANDS
Really Ime? Minute and twenty seconds?
Really love Oubre’s defense in the lineup, even if his offense has been shaky the last month. He’s become an elite defender
On the one hand I’m glad his first game back isn’t an important game. On the other hand I’m bummed it’s the first of a b2b before an important game.
I hope he can get some reps in, not get hurt, and we can blow them out so he’s fresh tomorrow.
At least today is an early game and both at home so it’s not a horrible road b2b
This thread is as dead as your mom’s bedroom (give her my number).
Bruh calling a timeout already lol
Honestly think Nurse is starting to gel with Tobias unlike Doc
I was really wrong about Oubre, thought he was just a shotchucker with 0 BBIQ and would never fit here.
Tobi cycle gonna Tobi cycle
Was Dillweed Brooks doing his staring thing today?
Embiid showing Sengun how its done
God I missed the big fella’s jumper
Tobias continues to be aggressive
Looks like Tobi wants to continue to be aggressive. I don’t hate it.
I said that last Houston matchup, Sengun was doing good because he was up against Reed and Morris and that if we had an actual rim protector and someone who can attack him in the paint (he’s soft), he’d get cooked all game
This defense can be swarming when they turn it on. I fucking love it
Yo wtf was that defensive possession? We were playing like it was 30s left in game 7. Wow.
If that was Siakam, that’s a dunk I’m just saying lol.
That’s some weak sauce
Not even close to a charge lol. Giannis fouls out by halftime every game if that’s a charge.
Charges are so stupid. If you don’t want to get run over, move.
refs are so fucking shit
That’s not a fucking foul lol Jabari just got bodied by Tyrese
Jo is back. Maxey’s shot is back. These things are not unrelated! Jo makes his teammates better. *cough Doc Rivers cough*
The Joel middie is one of the purest shots in the league
Hopefully Embiid embraces the fat boy style of defense. I don’t need him contesting 30 shots a game and having guards rolling into his ankle
Please dont let dillon cook lol
Our defense fuckin sucks
absolutely awful basketball, refs leaning on the game, tons of blown fast breaks, just can’t win like this
I feel Tobias would average 24ppg if he could make bunnies
Unbelievably bad home whistle continues
We need another shot creator so badly it’s insane
Brooks is the biggest fucking loser in the league
I am honestly mystified. It’s not like he’s airballing these. He’s hitting front rim. Is it power? Is he getting enough dip into the shot? Something slightly, very slightly mechanically is off for him right now.
Embiid just shouldn’t have played at all only giving effort on the offensive side
Jo’s jumper still wet
Our fast break execution been ass so far
Alaa sounded a little hurt 🤣 it’s not that deep
Wish Maxey would just stop with the long threes especially early in the shot clock. Wasted possessions along with him throwing it away on the fastbreak and batum trying the contested layup
Kisses from Oubre: Rizz 😍
Kisses from Brooks: Sexual Harassment 😨
I find it hilarious that they just let Embiid get to that elbow like he isn’t completely automatic from there
Ben Taylor masterclass is loading
“Embiid doesn’t get double teamed”
