Figured I'd get this one in early for a change. This should be another win (hopefully).

Charlotte is tough....Even without Lamelo they're a tough out. It'll take all 4 quarters tonight. Can't let Rozier get on a heater.

It's been love/hate things with Tobias for a long time now. So maddening.

I'm probably on the minority, but the Sixers bulldozing teams is a great outcome, so i'm all for this games being boring and getting decided in the first quarter lol

Mark of a great team. Point differential doesn't lie. This looks like the best team we've had in the Process era.

Maxey needs to do fewer stepbacks, that shot was just a simple catch-and-shoot.

The refs are abysmal. Tried to call Tyrese for an imaginary pushoff in a meaningless game against a tanking team meanwhile in the playoffs... Tatum and Brown pushed off all throughout the series and Tatum even pushed off on Maxey right in front of the refs for a game winner. :noway:

Damn, there are some really bad teams in the league. Really bad.

Nice to not have to ever see Glenn blaming execution and the team not being ready after a loss to a dreadful team again.

I've never said a bad word about Tobias Harris.
