Niang can take Tatum to the hole but Tobi cannnot. Awesome. 

The Bucks game should be fun. 

Millsap 2-2 from 3 so far. 

Is Petrusev available next year?

Great effort tonight.

Games like this make me pull my hair out over Tobi and his big contract. Dude just disappears whenever we need a someone other than Embiid to step up. We are down by over 30 points and desperately need buckets. Dude has taken 5 shots. I just can't with this guy. 

Pretty sure he is gone in the offseason

but what can you fetch in return that compliments embiid/harden?

Down 50 lol

So nobody cares that we lost by 50 points? I’ll see youse at delilah’s

Harden press conference on a game day was a really stupid idea.

Hardens outfit lost us the game. 

Hopefully the ridiculous championship talk can stop now.  What an embarrassment 

Doc Rivers on the @sixers’ short window of time to acclimate to one another:

"Everyone’s motivated.”

He added that James Harden asked to put in extra work with the second and third units, in order to mesh with his team better and faster, after shootaround.

Lol we were missing Seth, and Drummond and no Harden yet. On top of that, everyone played like crap and Embiid was tired. Wait until Harden joins and we get a buyout guy or two.

Harden has more of an impact than two two combined, and then some.

My concern is the Sixers are one of the worst rebounding teams in the league... That won't fly come playoff time. Drummond was averaging almost 9 rebounds a game off the bench. That's 9 more possessions they could use to score. Hopefully Millsap has some rebounding left in the tank.

There’s no excusing a 50 point blowout at home.  They lacked any juice and Joel played PG the whole time he was in.

Don't worry Doc already built in the " not enough time to gel" excuse 

We left towards the end of the 3rd Q.  When Horford starts draining shots you know it's a wrap.

Harden averages like 7.5 rebounds a game.

That's cool, can he fill in for Embiid? Still need someone on the bench to help out with rebounds and it doesn't make them better in that category.  You guys get to caught up in star players. Role players become extremely vital in the playoffs especially when one of your stars is having an off night.

Stars players are exactly how you win a championship. You need two of them.

Yeah but at we’re you able to see all of Thybulles 6 bricks?  John Starks-like.

That didn't age well.  

wound up having to fix our toilet last night...so i missed the beginning of the game. once i turned it on i realized that fixing the toilet was more enjoyable.

just a sheet game where everyone played like trash.

My man take it easy. Even if Drummond were still here he wouldn't be getting the same minutes in the playoffs as he did in regular season. So just adding 9 possessions is a bit of a stretch. With Harden you upgrade your rebounding plenty over Seth.

 

Last nights game shows why we needed someone like Harden. If Embiid doesnt score 30+, we have to rely on role players to have great games and play above their level. That's not sustainable and certainly wouldnt have gotten it done postseason.
