I like Danny green but i said this during the season, if he’s giving you nothing offensively then you should just go with thybulle.  at this stage of their careers thybulle is a better defender than green. Not that green isn’t a good defender but he’s not what he once was. Whereas thybulle can be much more disruptive. Currently green has 0 points. 

Thybulle can't shoot and cant have him and Simmons on the court together with Joel. Playing 3v5 on the offensive end

Putting Trae in a double pick and roll so he gets on Joel and Joel isn't stepping out so easy 3 point shots

At this point green on the court is 3 on 5. He has 0 points and isn’t looking to shoot either. So it’s kind of a moot point whether it’s going to be 5 on 3 with Simmons and thybulle because basically is with green giving you nothing on that end. Either way it would be like that right now. 

 Lol they're making every single shot from every single spot, this game is over unless they make literally nothing next half and the sixers make everything

Hawks still have to respect Green and his shooting, Thybulle why bother. 

A few years ago Grizzlies were beating the Warriors in the playoffs until they put Bogat on Tony Allen and literally didn't bother guarding him. Would be the same.

I bet in the series we see Maxey in the starting lineup instead of Green

They ran that play 5 times to end the half before Trae went 1v1. 

Sixers couldn't stop it

Not really if he’s not going to attempt shooting. Atlanta will adjust to him being out there doing nothing on that end. Currently thybulle is 1-2 from 3. You only have to respect green if he’s willing to be a offensive threat. Currently he’s not. Atlanta isn’t dumb they’ll adjust seeing green being passive on that end of the floor. So again if green is being like he is today and not a threat on offense it’s 5 vs. 3 anyway. He has 0 points and it’s not cause Atlanta is just stifling him on defense. 

also to your point, the hawks aren’t the GS warriors. You can limit and slow down young then you have a much better chance at winning the game. The warriors had klay and curry. As good as bogdonavic is he’s not klay Thompson to Steph curry. 

Not much you can do with the Hawks shooting like that. It’s not sustainable though. 

Intermission crew said green didn't attempt a single shot 

Told you guys they would be a problem. ATL is deeper than Philly and they’re even missing Hunter. The Sixers have the best two players in the series and they need to dominate. 

Haha J Williams just called out Doc for his lack of adjustments. 

 

Took their best shot, and only down 20. Got ‘em right where we want them!

You still have to respect his shot, Thybulle you don't. 

74pts in a half in a playoff game

Yes if he’s willing to be that threat. He is NOT today. Again you can’t be a threat if you don’t want to shoot the ball. This is the same crap people give Ben Simmons. It’s not that any green hasn’t had opportunities to shoot today. He just doesn’t want to and he is spending so much energy on the defensive end guarding young that it’s probably also affecting him on the offensive end. So you’re not getting the Danny Green who is a threat. So would i rather have 0 point Danny green who’s unwilling to shoot today (so far) or thybulle who’s a better defender and might slow down young and create some turnovers? I rather take my chances with thybulle considering green is getting burned defensively on young and giving me literally less on offense than thybulle so far in this game 

that also said it’s ridiculous they have him on Trae young. It should be Simmons to begin with 

Simmons coming alive...

Simmons on Trae

Simmons is so frustrating. Dude can get what he wants when he wants, but doesn't care too

Trae already got Simmons off him

He cares if people are mean to him. Then he tries.

So need to be mean and blame him for today’s game and game 2 he’ll be ready to go. 

In other news julio got dealt to the Titans. What a combo of Wrs in julio and aj brown 

Sixers missing every single 3 pointer

This game is done. Sixers finally getting wide open 3s and missing all of them. Hawks still making a good percentage of their shots. Can't catch up if you don't make those easy shots

I don’t understand what Doc is doing. Once he put Simmons on Young, they started to carve into the lead. Then he randomly switches it back to Green on Young. Why?
