e-a-g-l-e-s eagles! Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Love embiid but his ability to score in this series has been awful the past two nights. He’s averaging 20 ppg after tonight’s performance. And each game he’s gotten worse. Gone from 26 to 20 to 14. He’s getting worse offensively each game. Not winning a title with embiid only getting 20 a night against Boston or Milwaukee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not putting in Embiid in any positions, he is okay with the support cast winning the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said is doc going to make an adjustment or is He just going to hope that these guys continue to make shots. It’s really not a great strategy after the first round. It will work against Brooklyn but it’s not going to work long term if other teams go with the strategy as they have better talent and i don’t see our guys making the same clip against better opponents like Boston and Milwaukee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nipples Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 How the hell is that a foul on Tucker? Even if you're somehow going to call that, there's no way that's a shooting foul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he gets it up top it takes the double team to get there longer and embiid can see over the double team and the whole floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get him in positions to score, he isn't Jokic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipples Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Annoying game, but I'll take the W. That was the Nets giving us their best shot, and it wasn't enough, even with a BS Harden ejection. I expect a blowout Saturday to complete the sweep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really is bone headed coaching If the Sixers don’t get past the Celtics in the second round, doc has to go. Cause you’re not gonna get any more out the talent and doc isn’t going to become better as a coach. You are basically getting what you are getting from him after two years with largely this same unit. The second thing they need to do is get better quality depth. I look at Milwaukee and I look at Boston, have stars but their stars have nice role players. they could go eight or nine deep without having a dramatic drop off. The Sixers really don’t know what you are gonna get from Harris, tucker, mcdaniels, niang, Paul Reed game to game. It’s a problem. It’s why the bucks and Celtics can survive against better teams if Giannis or Tatum/brown dont play well offensively Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reed and McDaniels are solid enough, but they need more. Niang is too streaky with his shooting and terrible on defense. If they lose in the second round again, which unfortunately I think they will, they need to overhaul the roster in addition to a coaching change. For me the only "untouchable" is Maxey, anyone else is fair game for trade. I love Embiid, but he doesn't have much time left before his body gives out on him. Get as much as you can for him coming off an MVP season if that's what it takes to fix the roster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could win it all this year and be moot. If not, roster will have a lot of questions next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
