Game 34: Knicks @ Sixers 1/5 @ 7:30 pm ET ESPN Thread

[Phila Tough]

after every loss I just tell myself I gotta go to work tomorrow either way, and I quickly get over it lol

[eyeatoma]

WTF is this lineup?

[Mik317]

springer sucks yall

;_;

[Mik317]

had a chance to get it to 9 and blew it

[Negrodamus]

Would be nice if Springer could get to at least 37% from three.

[eyeatoma]

Beverly's energy is great, but he is all hustle, and not much skill...

[Mik317]

need a Maxey explosion rn or just sit the big fella and call it

[Jailblazers7]

It’s funny because after we did the Harden trade I was all excited that we finally have depth. But every game I take a peak at the box score & it always says Tyrese/Embiid combine for 100 and the rest of the team has 2 points.

Idk who his trainers are but they aren't doing a great job. He has gotten more explosive which was naturally going to happen anyway. Not much improvement anywhere else. He could of atleast grew a couple inches lol

tbf we are missing two of said depth tonight but yeah....I never bought into the depth thing anyway...bench has still be booty unless someone is randomly hot. Not something you can keep depending on.

getting some shooting and smarter players off the bench should be the move.

Just sucks to see this ****. Also gives all the haters more fuel on the GB, and social media. I'm tired of defending Embiid so much only for him to fail either because of his body, emoness, or the other myriad issues he's faced through the years.

I'm tired, I'm 40, and I just get way to involved in a game that literally does not make any difference in my life. I have other priorities, which I focus on. This is a nice release, and the internet is a toxic place. It's draining though. Best thing I've done is focus on my body, and exercise over the last 2 years. Just came off a 3 week holiday, and was looking forward to this game. Ah well.

I just dealt with the Indian cricket team losing the world cup final, after going unbeaten in the 10 games before that. Absolutely crushing for 1.5 billion people.

Think I just need to know that you can't get to high or low with sports.

Sports really can do a number on you haha...

Word of advice - watch the games, don't take this stuff so seriously, and stay off social media and bullschiit radio shows and ESPN. I've been doing it for about 20 years, and along with the DVR it makes watching sports a hell of a lot more enjoyable.

This is a January game in a league where only the playoffs matter. The team is a work in progress until after the deadline.

As in watching it later prevents you from seeing all the toxicity during the game? Might try that...

No, but you cut out announcer blather, halftime, and commercials. Couldn't watch a game live any more if I had to.

[Mik317]

Tobias out

so expect more Morris.....

yeah

[phillynative]

Tobias out

so expect more Morris.....

yeah

Why he had to change his briefs . I'm sure their soiled beyond belief

[eyeatoma]

Tobi out, think this game is done...

[Embiid P]

Knicks have cooled off considerably but we can't score for ****.

[phillynative]

If Maxey can't hit a 3 it's a wrap

[Mik317]

...maybe Doc was right

[phillynative]

Embiid is back in early after Reed move lol

[Mik317]

it be like that sometimes
team needs guys who can get hot from deep

[Embiid P]

...maybe Doc was right

About?
