Probably the best game the Sixers have played so far, so you know… marginal gains.

Yabusele’s best game easily. Drummond only played 15 minutes, he hasn’t looked particularly good so far. PG a little rusty but looks fine.

I thought they went a bit too many times to the well with Yabu in the closing minutes and had an untimely turnover...but he had a good game overall...
 
Said he was willing to "live with the consequences" and that wasn't even in reference to the initial incident....guess we have to live with these consequences as fans. Luckily and hopefully that will be it.....
 
No wonder the people in the league office had to get rid of Hinkie and install coangelo.

Now the league is investigating the sixers for not playing embiid when he is not injured, and investigating embiid for pushing a reporter who referenced his dead brother and child. The league the suspends the player who they fined the sixers 100 grand for not playing the player they just suspended….

Madness.
 
I think PG’s passing was maybe the best part of what he added last night. Sixers have been plagued by too many anti-flow dinguses for years. When an actual multi-faceted connector shows up, it smacks you in the face. Seemed to be the only one to have some good defense on KD too. Having said that, pass the f***ing ball to Maxey for the last shot, my dude.

Guerschon stock to the MOON. Another connective piece. I’d like to see what he looks like with Embiid. Speaking of center, really the only head scratcher this off-season was Drummond — still not a fan!
 
Hayes is the schoolyard bully getting the last laugh while the kid he picked on gets detention for snapping. So classic. At least most of the NBA sphere agrees he's a jackass

I think this is a solution to their problem, though. Every time they want to give Joel some "load management" don't just sit him, let him push a reporter. Then he'll just be suspended and they won't get fined for not playing him.

Embiid has to be cleared before serving the suspension. So he’s not even serving it. Unless they clear him 3 games ahead of time.
 
I'm having a hard time understanding how Nick Nurse, who is supposed to be a pretty good coach, has failed to have this team playing any semblance of professional basketball without Embiid when everyone knew he wouldn't be available. Despite some obvious shortcomings (size being one) this team is scratch-your-head bad. It's like everyone forgot how to play basketball.

Must have rubbed shoulders with Torts..

But yeah, he's been a huge disappointment like his team.
