Please fire Doc.

Hopefully he doesn’t last the weekend 

In true Doc fashion, his substitutions were working last game… so tonight he goes back to the same game plan he used in the 3 losses. Harris and Tucker can’t be out there together for extended minutes. Harris is pretty much useless at this point. 

Its just all about Maxey for me. Im not even mad about the team. I have no disgust in my gut after this loss like I normally do. 

Unless they can really make some kind of smart move with a Harris trade to breathe life in to this team (Im not even sure what that can be at this point), Im pretty checked out on the season.  The only thing I care about is Maxey's progression.

Im watching him, and looking at his box score and loving what he brought tonight. He just has to keep doing it.

Feels like when we knew Iverson had run his course here, and Iguodala was a promising young player. 

This Embiid/Doc/Morey combo was pretty on the surface but has lost all its luster. 

Really bad Maxey possession then tosses it Harden with 3 secs left

This team just cant get stops. No heart to play defense. With all these defenders... thats what makes it so baffling. These guys are supposed to have the pride to not just let a team take all of these open 3s all night. They should be getting stops to allow us to make a run. 

Defense this bad is hard to comprehend.

No speed on the wings

Will screens be added to Ben’s stats to make his triple double? Minutes, screens, assists?

They don't even have the assets or picks for this 

 

I just watched the second half of the Nets (still going) and Ben avoids going anywhere near the rim. He barely wants to touch the ball except for a quick pass. He can set a great screen though!

Well let's see, the first thing to go when you get older is your defense.... So our first move was to add a 50 yr old tucker whose best attribute is defense lol. Melton was the only real add to the defense, gonna need more than that. So is it really that difficult to comprehend 

Something with the Kicks like Reddish and Fourneir can make sense for us. But not really for the Knicks. 

Indiana is only 1-3 so maybe still hope for a Haliburton deal. But hes on a rookie contract and the money is not even close with Harris...

Its hard to find athletic wings who arent already too good to trade for Harris, and make the money match.

OKC for Dort and Bazley doesnt come close to matching.

Seems Sacramento has a few potential combinations of players that could work. Gotta see if theyll be willing once we get a little further in to the season.

 

 

Will the sixers win 40 games?

Haliburton is an All Star or right on the verge this year, that ship has long sailed. 

Kings are going to make a playoff so will be buyers more than sellers. 

Dort is better than Harris considering contracts

The question for the Kings, as buyers is- can they use a vet presence like Harris?

Its not necessarily just selling for them if they find him to be a useful piece and possibly a fit on their roster. 

I think they may be our best hope. 

As far as them selling, Im not asking for their best- Fox, Sabonis or their big free agent signing Huerter (though I wanted him since that draft).

Im looking at Barnes, Holmes, Terrence Davis, Malik Monk...

Harris and  Thybylle for Banres, Holmes and Davis works with contracts.

Josh Hart is so good for the Blazers but don't even have the assets for him.

I would be surprised if they get more than a Hayward type 

Ben Simmons had 4 points and 4 fouls tonight

I counter with, why would they take minutes from Keagan Murray? He has really played well and no point in stunting his growth. 

If they think he is a 3 instead of 4, then maybe get Harrison Barnes, but I think Murray is a 4. 

 

 

Well....ummm.....at least we have the Phillies and Eagles right?  Wow does this team look like a dumpster fire.

It would be easier to laugh at if the Sixers weren’t playing like trash.

If this is what it takes to fire rivers so be it. Never win ish with him

Sixers need to pull a Phillies and can Doc already

maybe starting thybulle and bringing tucker off the bench would help the perimeter defense?    

Supposedly 6ers are playing at the slowest pace of any team in the past 6 years. 

Slow and old

I have been thinking about this. I would actually get more radical and bring Harris off the bench. Maybe if he's a primary scoring option out there with the subs he won't stand around looking lost.
