This is almost as disastrous as the bucks last night

looking at the box score and plus minus and i wonder if we talk enough about the sixers bench being pretty bad

philly has no idea what they are doing, it's astonishing

Missed both!

i'm going to go out on a limb here....he might be fatigued

back to back 2nd half collapses for the sixers, brutal

This has been the problem all year. With the added problem that now Simmons is nearly unplayable in certain situations!

man is it ever gonna be crazy in atlanta on friday

yeah that's going to be a must watch

for the first time in history the crowd in atlanta is a factor!

ok Philly making me feel better about last night

wowwww

Utah phx atl bucks is the final four we need

this is some funny shit.

seems like a good time to mention that Bogdan should've been in Milwaukee

this is bad i think

I can’t really believe what I’m seeing: Joel Embiid and Seth Curry were the only Sixers to make a basket in the second half. pic.twitter.com/2c5yijUn5r

Clips only being down 1 after the Jazz hit 10 3 pointers is pretty astounding

this is bad i think

They've been great this game, but I don't understand Embiid and Curry trying to play 2 v. 5 the entire 4th quarter. Harris has been watching for a while.

so... simmons for cj

where do I sign

CJ is better

hard to overstate how funny it would be for the 1
seed process era sixers to lose in the second round to the atlanta hawks

Sorry pkbr thought i OTMd that post earlier

especially since the hawks were the example of getting stuck in the middle when tanking is the smart thing xp

also they didn’t really tank but they kinda did tank which proves that you don’t really need to tank tank

renaming tanking the process then demanding applause was pretty funny tbf

The Sixers have blown 18- and 26-point leads the last 2 games.

not great

when i think about it i'm amazed that the sixers have been at this for however many years and never acquired someone who could run a pick and roll. then i remember how long it's been since the knicks have had a decent point guard. the point is that sometimes in the nba things change very fast, and sometimes they never change at all.

So I liberally have no idea what happened there. Went out to watch the game with friends, one of which is a philly fan. Around the end of Q3 when it’s like a 22 point game, the philly fan ask if anyone brought a pen. So I say yes and we go smoke in the parking lot. We’re talking about our families and stuff and eventually walk back and it’s an 11 point game. But I’m baked so I can’t really tell if the score says 80 to 91 or 60 to 91 bc either one is plausible. So I spent the rest of the 4th quarter with the philly fan across from me and I’m trying to be chill just saying things like “I don’t actually think this is possible” and then they did it. I think I need to watch that last quarter like 3 more times just to make up for having to be nice while they pulled that shit off. That was unreal

Lmao

lol excellent

lol that is a perfect ILH story

Props to the clips for only being down 5. This feels like a 20 point blowout

they're down -3 now

lol @ that story Heez. was thinking about lighting up midway through Q3 but figured I didn't want to freak out about every 3 pointer and decided to wait. lucky me, that would've been miserable

Watching the 4th again and I gotta say that foul trae got on thybulle for 3 to take the lead was kind of bullshit

hahah yes it was

Ok finished the 4th again and would just like to say that Nate has been really good making adjustments

heez, respect

Just rolling with Lou and trae tonight, going with the bigger line up with Gallo, Collins, and Capela

if the jazz lose tonight we might have to do a poll of worst loss of the last 48 hours

this is all leading to nets beating the clippers in 4 right

i haven't been able to give this game full attention, what exactly are the jazz doing out there?

clippers are kinda shooting the lights out and the jazz aren’t moving the ball at all on offense

this is all leading to nets beating the clippers in 4 right

looks that way but the way these playoffs are shifting I expect a totally different narrative by Saturday
