I like how they test and don't get results before the game.  That's smart.

If I’m the Nets.   I’m pissed.  They put everyone at risk.  Who knew a sore ankle was a symptom of Covid.  

On the positive side, at least Shake was pretty good again.

Uggghh.  Hopefully not. 

What kind of crap show are the Sixers running? 

Curry, who sat out Thursday's game with left ankle soreness, spent the first quarter on the bench before the Sixers were made aware of a positive test, sources said. He was wearing a mask and was seated next to assistant coach Sam Cassell and center Joel Embiid.

Curry then left the court area and headed into isolation. He left the Barclays Center separately from the team.

Embiid, who has a 3-month-old son, told ESPN he plans to self-quarantine from his family until he is satisfied he didn't contract the virus.

Maybe if the HC wasn't too busy waxing poetic on Political and Social issues, he would know what was going on with his squad.

Are you saying this because you think they were already symptomatic/fatigued or just worried?  If the latter, that is a weak excuse.  Play hard.  That's what you get paid for.

People are a joke

Worried/distracted.  If they knew and he still sat on the bench, as reported.  Then the Sixers have some splaining to do.  

I'm gonna call it now.  Joel will have to take 4-5 games off.  Then he will come back as a fat slob.  All the talk about him being in shape this year will go out the window and we will have old Joel back.

For as much sheet as philly fans get, you'd think other fan bases would be above harassing a 15 year old on twitter.  F the massholes and heat fans.  If this was the other way around this would be plastered all over sports news.

Also why it doesn't matter what other star you bring in it still all rides on Embiid. Considering he has yet to have a complete season without some type of injury, illness or conditioning issue. They will never get to the finals of he is that other star. 

Wow I can't believe raptors are 1-6.

How many games have they played in Toronto this year? It's going to be a rough season for them considering they're living out of a suitcase for the whole season coming off the bubble. 

Marv Albert and Chris Webber were awful commenting the Nets/Sixers game. They had no idea who half the players were or what was going on for 90% of the game. 

The Sixers looked tired coming off the back to back. A lot of their shots were coming up short and the Nets were able to get out and run them off their legs on both ends of the court. The Curry news in the game probably didn't help but they looked tired before that

I think the Sixers should be shut down until the playoffs with Covid and will have the Number 1 seed!!  But seriously...WTF is going to happen.....sounds like Curry definitely has it and because he was on the bench.....probably a few more on the team.

Siakam is highly overrated, like highly. 

The only dude to somehow play worse in the bubble. Teams have put smaller guys on him and neutralized him

Jerami grant on fire this year. Wow.

Game is on for today. We have 9 available players. 

I'm unclear if it's on or not now. 

You need 8. We had 9. But now I see Joel and Ben out due to "injury". Wonder if that puts us at 7.

According to Woj, Mike Scott will go through warmup but unlikely to play.  Needed him in uniform to avoid forfeit.

 

He is technically our 8th player.  We will play with 7.
