nipples Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 I’m not going to overreact to just two games, but Embiid really hasn’t been good. Don’t know what’s up with him but he needs to get his crap together. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazletonEagle Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 I hope Embiid knows his role tonight and just plays D and acts as a decoy. Would love it if he set some good screens to get looks for Harden or Maxey. Last thing we need is him trying to take over and turning it over on doule teams. Harden is hot. Ride him till he cools and then try Maxey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazletonEagle Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 Ok. How about Tucker set some screens, and let Embiid go to the paint to maybe rebound some Harden misses? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I now thing, being embarrassed in game 2 should really get legitimate hot seat talk going for Doc. Yes, of course its early. But this team is far, far away from competing with two of the Easts elite. I dont think we can keep making excuses for him. Other teams went through an offseason of the exact same length, made free agent acquisitions, etc. Other teams are ready to play. Our team looks like the season hit them 2 months too early. We have 1 new player in the starting lineup. Thats not that extreme. They should look better, and they dont. Doc is an idiot and should be fired. I’m doubting they do it midseason cause they don’t want to pay him the money with the amount of time still on his contract and pay the new coach. That said i don’t think this roster is what it looks like after the trade deadline tbh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazletonEagle Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 immediately embiid harden 2 man game results in long 3 attempts missed by Harden, and then a turnover trying to work a pick and role. Embiid instantly killed the whole flow for the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel never rolling to them rim on the pick and rolls. No one else slashing or setting screens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what the rockets would do except they had capella who’d roll to the basket and they’d find him occasionally for the dunk or alley oop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s suppose to go through Joel, according by to doc. This harden can’t do what that harden did. Doesn’t have the same burst. He is only asserting himself because nothing else is working.

Doc is an idiot and really the sixers are wasting embiid’s career keeping him knowing he is a marginal coach at this stage of his career that said Harris defensive play was as bad when you watch the replay. There’s no way Allen gets a good look at the basket with embiid there. Harris saved Allen from likely having to either take a bad shot or call a timeout. Harris had played enough with embiid to know don’t leave a shooter especially there’s no reason to help embiid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can trade Thybulle, Furk, Shake for a role player. Who Doc will need 18 months to figure out how to incorporate in to the rotation. After which, the team will need another 12 months to gel.

If he's not open we are going to screen for James. He's going to drive left and settle for a fade away layup from outside of the paint. Win on 3. 1-2-3 Win!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
