Mike Scott with 0 points in 16 minutes.  There's no way Paul Reed couldn't contribute a bucket or two in that amount of time.

Missing Embiid obviously was the biggest issue, but this is also on Doc for pulling Maxey out and putting Simmons back in. 

I don’t mind putting Simmons back into the game at that point for Mike Scott who was playing center and getting owned on the glass. That put back jam killed momentum right as we got it back to a tied game. The issue was they should’ve left maxey and hill both in the game went with a lineup of maxey, hill, green, Harris and Simmons. Allow Simmons to play the center position and maxey handle the ball.  Plus you have enough defenders out there who aren’t liabilities. The wizards down the stretch purposefully ISO’d curry and korkmaz and made guys help which then got them easy looks at the basket. Can’t do that with beal and westbrook on the court and those two out there.

Hack a Ben is now a real thing 

Good. maybe being completely embarrassed shooting them as bad as he is will help him remember it and actually work on it. 

Korkmaz was shooting well in the 4th and taken out as well.

They took out everyone who was going well. Hill had 14 on 3-5 shooting and was 5-6 from the line. Maxey and korkmaz hot and took both out for a period of time. Like somehow thybulle who was 2-5 from three and 3-6 from the field for 8 points somehow had less minutes than Mike scott who brought a whopping 0 points and 2 rebounds. 

Ben Simmons is afraid of delivering under pressure in the spotlight. Choker.

The Ben tweets are gonna be brutal on Sixers Outsiders.

That's wet yo lol

After going 0-for-9 from the line in the first three games, Ben Simmons shot 5-for-11 from the line, so he's now 5-for-20 in the series for 25 percent. As of now, that’s the 2nd-worst free throw percentage in NBA history by a player attempting at least 20 in a postseason

Baby steps he actually made a free throw. Lol

Ben’s free throw issues are moot if Joel can’t play. Same old issues. If Joel’s health doesn’t deliver the final dagger then Ben’s poor shooting will. 

I'M HAPPY!!!!!  I'm Happy!  I Think?  I Don't Know Anymore!  I Want to Kill Myself!!!  This team make me Manic Depressive........

Oh...and yes, regarding basketball:

1. Embiid was definitely fouled on that drive and that f'er mongoloid was trying to be cute all game putting his body all over him.  I truly wish bad things upon the Lopez parents putting those ugly bastids on the planet!

2. On Ben's drive, that should have been a Flagrant 1

3.  The refs absolutely were trying to hand this game to the Wizards

4.  Doc sucked last night....no way you take out Hill, Maxey and Korkmaz after they bring you back

5.  If Embiid is done, so are we......

6.  If Embiid is done for a game, you start Reed......also, I have zero clue or understanding how someone with Howard's skill, size, years in the league looks like a freaking epileptic around the basket

7.  Ben might literally have played himself off the court......if Washington and other teams literally just start fouling him every possession, we can lose games 120 to 30

Teams can’t just hack Ben all game long. There are foul limits. Like Washington, they’ll wait until the last few minutes to start the hack fest. At this point Simmons is pretty much unplayable in the final minutes unless he can start hitting his damn free throws. Doc needs to just swallow his pride and play Maxey in the last 5 minutes or so. 
 

I do agree in the flagrant though. We have seen far, far less called a flagrant.

This series will be over in 5 games, so no big deal here...it’s just the cracks this game highlighted.  Embiid potentially back to touch and go health, Simmons back to playoff form liability on offense...could make the next series very difficult.

They’ll still beat the Knicks or Hawks as long as Embiid is good to go. I’m hoping he was just pulled as a precaution since they were up 3-0. 

He really did land awkward on his right leg before falling. 

Hopefully not another bone bruise.

Honestly, that was my thoughts/hope.....that is, until he somehow hurt his knee falling on his ass?  I figured, ok....he took a shot to his lower back, we are up 3-0, let's hold him out and let him rest to be safe.  How he now has a knee issue needing an MRI....jesus f'ing christ.....

yeah, the sixers are a lot worse w/o the guy who will mostly likely be runner up for mvp. he covers up a lot of his teammates' flaws. if he's out for a while, they're done...obviously.
