  1. __Pseudonym

    Niang with the Triple Zero 😮‍💨😮‍💨😤😤🥶🥶🏀⛹️

  2. loco1989

    portis vs niang was fuking insane. Hey, maybe try reed and embiid at the same time for once, Glenn! Games like this really show Doc’s limitations. Overall, everyone not named Maxey House and BBall Paul looked uninspired

  3. PessimistSixersFan

    Glenns shitty choices costed us this game

    This is why I don’t have faith in this team going far in the playoffs

    Also doesn’t help that we’re hamstrung by the Tobias contract

  4. SamHinkiesNephew

    Just want to have great role players but Tobias makes it impossible plus being incapable of being a good role player himself.

  5. NoFapFabio

    Hopefully the blessing in disguise is Doc remembering your need two-way players in the playoffs and House can at least provide that on a an occasional basis

  6. JokersRWildStudios

    At least JoJo actually extended his scoring title lead today over Luka

  7. jeppsforst

    James needs to sit until the postseason there’s nothing for him to play for other than hurting his Achilles even more

  8. WhyplerBronze

    god’s honest, who here thinks we get out of the second round?

  9. SomeGuyNamedJohn12

    I wish Joel could’ve at least gotten 30+ points to help with the MVP case

    Niang was putrid tonight.

    Doc is Doc. No point even complaining at this point. Just have to laugh until we hire our new coach (Hopefully Ime Udoka) next season.

  10. SquashForDinner

    Grayson Allen got knocked out early so we basically lost against 5 players. Why are people saying we lost because our bench was not good? Our starters were not good wtf lol. It was literally just Jrue, Brook, Bobby, Giannis, and Middleton cooking us. If that was a straight up 5vs5 we’d still get demolished like come on y’all.

  11. Odd_Calligrapher_407

    I still think that game was conceded in the first Q. We just need reps so why kill yourselves against this very physical team? It’s a late season injury waiting to happen.

  12. dumb_commenter

    That game really shifted when the mvps switched off/on. Giannis sits with 4 fouls in the 3rd and with embiid out we come storming back. Embiid sits with 4 with 2.5 remaining in the 3rd and Giannis comes back and literally turns the game back around almost single handedly.

  13. Final_Ad_3456

    Harden playing with an injury is still getting hate. Gave up about 8m to try and help the team. Been playing great for most of the season with a major injury. As soon as he makes a mistake or misses a shot, he’s washed and the 76ers shouldn’t sign him in the summer. I’m not saying that he hasn’t played badly at times, but he’s been great for the most part. Even last year, I thought he did quite well in the regular season and the playoffs bar a game or 2. He also has to make sure to get everyone involved in the best play he can, which is hard for a point guard.

    This is why he’s not deserved by the 76ers fans.

  14. RisingEephus8

    Gonna love reading all the scapegoating of Tobi, Niang and McDaniels when James fucking Harden continues to have no juice and just coast lazily on one if not both sides of the ball every other game. Fight me on it, Harden stans

  15. Philly0024

    6 points by that bum Tobias 6 points, as long as he’s here we ain’t winning shit

  16. dakota402

    Everybody kinda played like shit but I don’t feel like we matched there effort. Bucks had 3 days of rest + had extra motivation after Celtics blow out. We were sleep walking through most of this one. I would imagine were not gonna have a great end to the regular season effort wise, as we are basically locked into the 3rd seed. Which I’m fine with, coming into the playoffs healthy and rested is more important than anything else. It’ll be make or break time though. Doc, Harden, and Embiid have a ton on the line this postseason.

  17. Fella_in_Paris_

    I’m not very fond of what’s going happening rn

  18. DNAtornado

    Sixers looking ahead to that Boston matchup. Came out tonight and conceded a loss from the tip. Hope they come out with some tenacity against the Celtics. Harden doing his best Simmons impression of being a non-threat on offense and walking ball up court and just handing it off.

  19. Fella_in_Paris_

    Losing isn’t ideal but it’s whatever. Please stfu about MVP Joel obviously doesn’t care

  20. GOAT_Redditor

    Regular season ass atmosphere to this one

  21. SamHinkiesNephew

    11 points in 83 minutes from our four forwards

  22. Ashamed-Principle-86

    We traded Mikal and maxed Tobi. 1 2 3 4 5 Sixers Woooo

  23. mrHartnabrig

    Sixers already proved they could beat this team. Who they need to be locked on is the C’s.

  24. thegrittyrn

    Both of Milwaukee’s games against Denver and Boston were on the second night of a back to back and when it’s against us, they were coming off of two days rest. We’re also going to face Boston on Tuesday who will be coming off of a three-day rest. Great stuff

  25. sherekahn5

    Biggest takeaway, Embiid did not play like an MVP

  26. StaringAtMyHugeBulge

    This game was lackadaisical from the start, nothing to play for on our end other than clout whereas the Bucks are coming off a 40pt drubbing looking for redemption.

  27. StaringAtMyHugeBulge

    The team looks checked out of the regular season, playing low intensity ball to stay healthy

  28. mberko21

    Doomers on this one are a bit weird. There was some awful coaching decisions in this one but it was really the first quarter that fucked us in the end of it all

  29. Scottsm124

    At least the Nuggets are beating a fully healthy Warriors squad without the greatest player in the history of basketball

  30. Im in favor of shutting down Harden until the playoffs start. Hasn’t looked right in a while and we need him as healthy as possible. Once we get one more win Embiid should be shut down as well.

  31. reddit0100100001

    this mf Jokic sitting to keep his averages up. Fraud

  32. PensiveinNJ

    Not a great game but if we’re gonna meet the Bucks at any point there should be some really important lessons Glenn takes away from this one.

    Also, all the roster weaknesses should be pretty clear at this point. If you don’t have guys on the floor who can defend they will be exploited.

  33. EndAnyone

    Doomers gonna eat good tonight. I still believe in this team as long as they’re healthy. We always knew this wasn’t going to be easy and that we’re behind the Bucks and Celtics. We’re looking to overtake them.

  34. TheSixthPistol

    ADRENALINE

    IN MY SOUL

    TOBI SUCKS

    OUT OF CONTROL

  35. Dawk320

    Just remember every time you rage about another Tobias no show, he is laying on his bed counting his $458,939.63.

  36. jeppsforst

    Everyone can trash tobias and the bench players if they want but the facts are this: neither Embiid or harden played well tonight. We have literally zero chance against either Boston or Milwaukee if both of them are not playing at their best

  37. pagonator

    I’d really like to see us actually show some defensive intensity in first halves instead of sleepwalking our way through them and trying to ramp it up in the second.

    Whole team is guilty of it but that sort of shit cannot happen in the playoffs. Maybe they’re just sleepwalking their way through the end of the regular season but we might as well rest our guys more if that’s the case.

  38. dumb_commenter

    Bball Paul appreciation post here. Notwithstanding that he got no support from his shooters that guy gave his all on those offensive boards. That one series where he twice recovered the rebound amidst a sea of bucks only for the supporting cast to brick over and over was painful.

  39. soldaboy

    On a side not I’m looking forward to the day that multiple kick ball violations is actually punished

    We must lead the league in forcing them and it stops so many easy buckets for us

  40. RylanKura

    I’m with Lars on this one. Fuck Tobi

  41. RichieD79

    6 points from Tobi. Great job and a wonderful use of that money. I cannot wait for this dude to be off the team.

  42. PessimistSixersFan

    Bobby Portis (4 years / 48,578,208)
    Stat Averages: 13.8 PPG/9.5 RPG/1.5 APG/PIE: 13.7

    Tobias Harris (5 years / 180,000,000)
    Stat Averages: 14.8 PPG/5.7 RPG/2.5 APG/PIE: 10.7

    -Tobias is also paid the most on the team currently

    -The cap space that Tobias takes up could be used for 2-3 quality role players

  43. TopGsApprentice

    Harden be playing for that vet min 🔥

  44. phillydilly202

    God damn I wish I could make 450k a day of work to be the 6th best person on my team.
