  1. Man Buddy is that guy, he’s a certified sniper and he has a little bit of a bag. I can’t wait until this team is fully healthy again. 

  2. One of the best wins of the season given how shorthanded we were and how red hot the Cavs have been. Hopefully we can string a few more together!

  3. TurboHovercrafter

    A close normal win 9/10 if not for the typical NBA refjob

  4. aspiringplebeian

    We finally got our Heat YMCA player turned rotation guy with RCIV.

  5. autostart17

    Hmm. KJ Martin started the game, went 5/5, and yet I watched 2nd half and didn’t notice him? Did he leave?

  6. jorgelongo2

    cant express how important the next game vs Heat is. They are going to play B2B after playing in Milwaukee tomorrow, without Butler and in Philly. We gotta win and keep them away in the loss column

    If they lose in Milwaukee and vs us, that would be a 6 loss difference.

  7. Angerman876

    We still need to work on our 2 minute game. But that was game of the season 😮‍💨 Great effort from everyone through all 4 quarters. And bball stopping Mitchell was beautiful. Good game

  8. rexfloyd94

    shout out to sixers legend georges niang with 0 points in 18 minutes, love you minivan

  9. lmpressionante

    That was shameless officiating down the stretch. SHAMELESS

  10. If this team goes goes 5-5 in the next 10 I will get a 76 tattoo

  11. WallOld615

    I was very skeptical of a Buddy move earlier in the season but now I’m pretty sure I’d die for him.

  12. Seeing Mitchell be the biggest foul baiting bitch of all time makes the Embiid hate seem even more unfairly targeted

  13. ComeAtMeYo

    Buddy as of 3 games in: 13/29 from deep, good for 4.33 makes per game at 44.8%. We needed volume sharpshooting and we got it.

  14. Philly-lifegoeson

    Hield has great ball handling skills. He kind of reminds me of Kyrie Irving.

  15. cuttsthebutcher

    Why were the Pacers even selling on Hield like what was the reasoning behind that lol

  16. yankees7210

    I missed this game 🙁 does anyone know if/where we can re-watch the full game (not just the highlights)?

  17. Imagine if Maxey got Mitchell’s whistle one day

  18. olthunderbird

    Hield > Korkmaz  Sorry Furk nothing personal 

  19. What a win!! Nurse’s rotations are suspect, but man what a good fit Maxey and Buddy are!

  20. bruhboi2222

    Leaning toward starting Hield over Melton. He’s competent enough on the defensive side although he did foul out (officiated wasn’t that good).

    I’d also push giving Ricky constant minutes in hope he can replace Tobias. If not this season then for sure next season he is a dawg and plays great with Maxey and Hield.

    Just beat a team that was 17-1 in their last 18 — without Embiid, Melton, Batum, and Tobias (although I don’t think we win with Tobias.)

  21. WateryPasta

    Hey guys, Cavs fan checking in

    Please don’t shoot like that again next we play you it really made me unhappy

    lol GGs🤝

  22. Science4me12

    Tobi needs to study RC IV tape. He needs to learn how to draw fouls

  23. MaxeytoEmbiid

    Buddy is everything I was wishing for during the losing streak. Someone to play off of Maxey and vice-versa. When you’ve got multiple offensive talents, that’s when the magic happens.

    It just isn’t 2001 anymore where your guy can carry you. You need supplementary talent and Hield is that supplementary talent.

    Embiid/Maxey/Hield is a new big-3.

  24. jawntothefuture

    Lock up Buddy. He’s gonna be so nice next to Joel 

  25. Feelscreative101

    We are looking so fkn solid if we can get Batum and Oubre to stay another year and extend Buddy + Maxey. Blow our load on a wing and try to keep the impact guys like Melton, Lowry, Payne around.

    IMWT

  26. LuckyCulture7

    6 guys with 10+, 3 with 20+ a true team win. Thank god the basketball terrorist is not in the org anymore there we can celebrate the C4 and Bball Paul victory tour!

  27. GeneParmesan1000

    I just turned on the Nuggets-Bucks game and was instantly blinded by the Milwaukee court

  28. Ashamed_Job_8151

    If this sixers team is healthy and has 4 to 5 games at the end of the year to play a little together we got a real shot. I get the feeling buddy is gonna hit some daggers in the playoffs.

    if we have Doc on the bench, we 100% lose that. Nurse is extremely good with adjustments.
