    It appears like Doc is frustrated with Tobias and Tobias seems to be less engaged. It could be trade rumors or he could still be struggling with return from COVID. I think they are featuring him less in the offense also. His contract is pretty awful but not as bad as Wall’s! Silver linings!

    Tobias is valuable for a 3/4 option. But not at $36 a year. Danny has some defensive value and unfortunately may be our second best rebounder at any given time on the floor. That is not a testament to Danny; it’s an indictment on the roster. I have some hope for Morey to do the best for the team...

    It is criminal that Isiah Joe doesn’t get minutes.

    Hence, his reluctance to show his face since “the pass”.

    There have been some ugly looking shots (Shawn Marion) but that didn’t prevent many from shooting. Jonas Valancunis just went 7/7 from three the other night in the first half of his game. He didn’t shoot outside 5 feet his first half of career and wasn’t expected to do so. Point is, shooting is...

    How novel? Players working to improve game. That’s why I love to watch and root for Maxey. The guy can play and works hard as heck to get better.

    The long road, quick home stop, and then back to the road would be tough. I think they will make playoffs but roster is sluggish and it’s groundhogs day with the team and Doc decisions. Maxey not being on the court for final possession was nuts. I trust things will work out, but it’s tough to...

    Moral victory because of Embiid and Tobias’ struggles! Embiid with another excuse postgame! Doc’s endgame lineup and iso for Tobias! Handcuffing of most dynamic player; self and team imposed! Al Horford dominating Embiid! Hesitancy to shoot! Ah, feels like home!

    Tobias is rough to watch.

    Little late to this but that was a frustrating end. Embiid took responsibility which was…ok. Embiid struggled at end of game. Maxey needed to attack at the end and it appears that forcing the ball to Embiid was stretched too far at the end. Here’s hoping for a win tonight.

    Splendid! A sixers thread. I’m a glutton for punishment and look forward to sharing in misery and emotional reactivity with everyone. Especially with my dislike for Shake Milton’s game and the slowest team in the nba. Love them though!

    One hire Franklin could make that would pay instant dividends

    I am going to say this and duck behind something because it is blasphemy to say anything negative about strength staff at penn state but….I see a great deal of linemen being pushed back in the backfield or at the least being stood up at the line. I can’t recall a time when someone got push and...
