No Embiid tonight. In all likelihood it would have been a loss anyways.

We're the masters of blowing the front end of a B2B at home before facing a tough opponent. You'd think they'd lock in the easier of the two matchups but oh well.

If we lose by less than 10 tonight it's a moral victory.

He was trying to small ball, but obviously that didn’t work

Derek and the Phly podcast said that Maxey consciously doesn't take shots in the 1st quarter so he can set up his teammates. Might want to change that right now buddy.

I get the general idea, Morris is unplayable, guy even forgot how rotations work

Agreed, he’s just not a good player anymore

Our lack of 3pt shooting is exposed this game.

Morris was supposed to just jack up 3s and punish Gobert from not stepping out

I like Nurse but between starting Morris and playing this line up, i don't know if he's just trolling us or what

Honestly... I think he was hoping for Morris to show something significant enough to be a positive asset. He's still the most likely salary to go out if we look to add another minor piece.

What's the point of Bev being on the corner if he isn't gonna take a shot?

Bamba could be helpful this game. Not much interior defensive presence without Embiid.

Maybe he noticed an opening in the PJ Tucker role?

Bamba and defensive presence don't go together in the same sentence
