Game 41: Sixers @ Hornets 1/20 @ 7 pm ET Thread

I'm stuck listening to the Hornets announcer Eric Collins and my GOD is he annoying AF! Dell Curry not so much, but holy crap this guy is irritating. We're gonna lose this game if we don't tighten up in the 4th. Can't believe it! Well yeah I can...Hornets have athletes out there that we can't compete with in Brandon Miller, Miles Bridges, and yeah...JT Fkin Thor. They're just taking it to us! We suck tonight!

Sad we need our MVP to go off just to beat the Hornets. Maxey about to play 40 minutes tonight.

This can't continue.

I hate the Tobias classic game more than anyone but he has been fine tonight.

Maxey seriously need rest, his speed is not what it normally is, his shoot is suffering from all this burn and he's even starting to brick FTs

lol he's insane. I'm kind of enjoying it. This random regular season game means everything to him.

[Sixersftw]

wife beater is balling.

[ExplosionsInDaSky]

I know it's a B2B, but here's how to beat the 76ers..

1. Swarm Embiid with defenders. In the playoffs he won't get the calls he gets now

2. Put a taller defender on Tyrese Maxey and he goes into circus shot mode which is never a good look

3. Put a taller, more athletic, or stronger defender on Tobias Harris and he wilts like a dandelion.

[Negrodamus]

Tobias is allergic to making shots at the rim. Truly incredible how bad he’s been with any kind of defensive pressure on him.

[ExplosionsInDaSky]

Tobias Harris has been awful unless he's being guarded by Ish Smith or Terry Rozier. Just a bad game all around...Maxey has looked like crap tonight too...So has Embiid. We suck!

[ExplosionsInDaSky]

Who would of thought that JT Thor would lock Embiid down? We may still win this game, but damn this has just been a piss poor performance from us.

[Stanford]

It is what it is. Bucks barely beat the Pistons earlier.

[Murray_17]

Embiid jumper came alive just in time.

Also, Tobias has been solid in this quarter, i still want him gone lol

[ivysixer2000]

Its such an easy adjustment for Tobi not to get his layups blocked, its just irritating he can't make the adjustment

[Murray_17]

I think a lot of the problem is he has tunnel vision when he's on transition, he misses so many passes a lot of the time he goes to the rim with two defenders right behind him. It's comical

[ExplosionsInDaSky]

We're gonna win but damn...That game was uglier than Brooke Hogan. I must say that our 4th quarter defense has been great lately. I at least can applaud that tonight. Then again, it could just be that Charlotte is that bad and haven't figured out how to close games yet. They're going to be good if they stick with Brandon Miller. Kid has a bright future.

[ivysixer2000]

Kurk just plays depressed all the time now, course he's never improved his game since he's been here so he can't be too upset

[Stanford]

Losers

[Murray_17]

LOL, welp, this is why Maxey has to play 40 minutes

[ivysixer2000]

Gotta put in the starters cause of Furk, lol

[Mik317]

Ugly win.

[ExplosionsInDaSky]

Korkmaz has had his opportunities over the years. I don't feel bad for him at this point. Nurse has played him the last couple of games, but he just looks disinterested in doing anything for us. I like that we keep getting cameos from Council. I really think him and TSmith have a future here.
