This team sucks it’s already over before it starts 

This.  I’ll be shocked if they make it past the first round.  Harden is washed, they have no bench, and Doc is a joke.

Relax, it’s only one game.

 

Someone convince me they weren’t better off keeping Curry and Drummond and mental health boy.

I actually think there’s an argument to made that Curry has been better than Harden this year.

harden shot 4/15.

Like I said earlier in the week he's now shooting 41.6% FG and 33.7% 3pt.  Yet I constantly hear the callers complaining that he's passing up shots and over passing.  Maybe some of it is truly wanting to get the rest of the roster involved but I'm convinced that part of it is that he knows that he just doesn't have the shot going this year.  It's just the way it is.  We have to hope that his assists and rebounds can make up for his lack of shooting efficiency. 

By comparison, Haliburton is shooting 46.3/40.8 (Maxey is slightly higher in both stats btw) but he's not on the NBA All Time 75 list and doesn't have Harden's intangibles, yet. 

Unfortunately Seth is reallyy struggling with an ankle injury right now. 

But the team was better with his scoring and drummonds bench play. 

Detroit trade for Grant, Bey and 1st was a better move.  So especially was the Kings trade. And on that level, white and Murray from  the Spurs.

Morey Fd up huge just trying to spite Simmons and make him lose pay longer. All options closed and he ended up with washed Harden. Who he stupidly wanted all along.

This article agrees that the bench is an issue. But it also points to what Doc said about Harden. Look at him not exploiting matchups against bigs on the perimeter. He should be breaking their ankles and going by. Hes settling for contested 3s instead.

You mean he's not necessarily a good fit and doesn't play team ball?

 

 

Stunning.

It shows that hes not doing what hes been known for doing. He should be killing those mismatches. Looks washed. 

keep embiid & maxey....trade everyone else!

I see him pass up a lot of open 3's too..... What hasn't changed his him just standing at the top of the 3 point line and not moving leaving everyone else standing around. If he isn't gonna take advantage of mismatches and he isn't gonna take open 3's then he needs to move without the effing ball! No one else has anywhere else to go because he just stands there. 

 

Where did glen get his doctorate? University of Phoenix?

[Pompey] The #Sixers say Paul Reed has been assigned to the Delaware Blue Coats and Charlie Brown has been transferred to the team as well.

Great, now there’s no chance of Doc accidentally playing him. Idiot.

Curry is hurt and probably needs ankle surgery 

 

 

So 2 of the 3 players the Sixers sent to Brooklyn are injured. I smell a conspiracy

Haliburton 10/11 6/6 from 3 for 30pts.... 91% shooting...

Sadly if they flame out in the first or second round Morey is most likely the only one that will still give Harden the money he wants. Since you know Morey has a hardon for Harden
