Marc, we still need that apology for YOU saying Joel was washed. #WeDontForget
I'm looking forward to VJ defensively against Brunson. Keep building team chemistry and stacking wins. Marathon season! 1,2,3,4,5, SIxers!!💪🏽
Embiid played better, but he still looked sluggish moving up and down the court. He also used to be a dominant force on defense but now only seems to be only a shadow of himself. Its too early for me to feel excited about his play. There is a difference between finding a way for him to be useful and fitting into a fast style of play with a lot of ball movement and cutting as opposed to being a dominant "big" that really makes you a contender.
Positive comments..happy new year team Locked On 76ers..lets frigginf go 6ixers nation👍💙❤️🔥💯😊
Mavs are tanking
Trade Embiid and PG while they are putting up good numbers and are actually able to play.
Thats what i want keep PG at the 3
Locked on upgraded that quality nice
I love how underrated yet highly effective PG's role is. Best 3rd option in the league.
Kelly Oubre, Grimes, Drummond, and Bona and McCain coming off the bench I like that
It seems the Sixers have an easy schedule every season. U guys beat a 12 – 22 team last night. Was that good enough to measure ur team by?
PG would be off the bench in a perfect world
It's coming together. Both Joel and Paul are getting healthier. Edgecombe keeps contributing more. This team is deep even with a missing roster spot and Gordon and Lowry on the roster.
FYI, Knicks play ATL tonight, so its another back to back.
Will have to see who isn't playing tonight.
But unfortunately, Oubre didn't have a chance for a 5 on 5, (which seems ridiculous if he's already done a 4 on 4) so ruled out vs Knicks.
Makes no sense as he could be on a 15 minute restriction and evaluate after playing in a real game instead of practice.
We don’t need Embiid to be be his old self. He obviously wants to play, but encouraging him or admonishing him for not going all out puts him at risk. He wants a title but he knows it’s not wise to go banging inside when his knees are not durable enough. We can’t blame his body. He’s playing smart in my opinion. He kept us relevant until he could get a cast like we have. Also good job Nick Nurse. You don’t get good 2nd team by only playing your premium players. We’ll take more losses upfront but be prepared when it’s playoff time
Breaking. KAT, Hart and Robison are all out vs the Knicks playing ATL right now. ATL is winning.
Hope at least two of them will be out tomorrow.
I had low expectations for the Sixers this season, but so far they're fun to watch! I went to a game in December vs Golden State and it was fun!
