Yeah this outta be a blowout. Lots of Maxey, Joe, Kork, and Thybulle 

Yeah but no Ben, so that helps. 

Embiid down... didn’t look good. 
 

Well he’s back out of the locker room so hopefully not as bad as it could have been. Just seemed like his knee buckled when he came down awkwardly. 

And Embiid is back in the game. 

Embiid with 27 pts and 3 mins left in 1st half.  BEAST

Yeah... Embiid’s got a real shot at MVP this season. The man has just been a monster. Credit to Doc for bringing the best out of him. 

Jesus, 31 point first half for Embiid. 

I remember when we drafted him, one draft analyst wrote of Embiid "Ceiling: best player in the NBA”. I was so excited reading that. I think we’re there. This guy is playing out of his mind. 

Team can’t make a 3 without Simmons 

Get Embiid help. Jesus Fricking Christ.

Time to get embiid out

They are getting nothing from anyone else. 

What the hell is with Shake lately? Dude looked unstoppable to start the year, has fallen off big time these last few games. 

All we need is for the Blazers to stop hitting shots, and Embiid to put up another 25 point quarter. No biggie. 

Throughout the season there will be times when we are shorthanded due to Covid. Already were once, and continue to siffer lingering effects with Curry. A night like tonight when the opponent is far more shorthanded than us due to COVID is an opportunity that should not be squandered. 

I hope Morey and Brand are feeling as disgusted an unaccepting of this output as I am. And I hope someone finally has the balls to stand up to Doc when he says "Nah. I dont want to do that." And tell him "We are doing it."

I dont think Ben's 12 points would have gotten us the win tonight. I think we need that other scorer to help Embiid. 30 from Beal, or 25 from LaVine probably gets it done.

It’s like Embiid playing 1 on 5 out there right now. 

I really dislike Korkmaz. 

3 point shooting

Kork 1-7

Joe 2-3

Shocker. Maybe we should be playing the better shooter every night?

So now that the dust has settled, all those saying they wouldnt include shake and maxey in deals for harden, still feel the same way? Lol.

Yup rather have Beal

That's not the question.  

I would love Portland as a trade partner. 

Covington, and either Trent, Hood,or Simons would be nice.  With Beal and McCollum ahead of those guys they have so many quality guards. Elleby might be decent too. 

Really should be able to pry someone away.

yeah Shake made a massive leap in his 3rd year here and is probably still on the upswing, and Maxey is incredibly promising so early on. Nothing has changed since then. 

Little 3 point shooting slump for Shake. Not worried. Season is long. Shooters slump. He will get it back. Dont think he forgot how to shoot.

Both are bench players. Not to trade them for harden is laughable. Everyone got excited because maxey scored 40. To each their own.

Ok let me rephrase my answer. I don’t want Ben for harden. I’d rather have Ben for Beal if possible. I don’t want Ben gone but for Beal
