2021-22 NBA "REGULAR" SEASON THREAD

yeah maybe it’s fair to say there is enough star power to make it work

they should just replace the season with a big 32-team double elimination tournament

the NBA Cup

Want to Welcome Ben Simmons to Thunderdome.

lol i just got a "Fans Boo Simmons" notification on my phone

its true they booed him

lol joel missed a point blank dunk

joel and drummond are well on their way to double technical fouls

would be really funny if these two teams saw each other in the playoffs and the seth curry swap swung the series

It’s almost likely lol

doc talking about joel being in such good shape that he could play his most minutes ever this year like are you even listening to yourself man

KD not touching rim even remotely lol

hate how embiid starts acting all incredulous as soon as he gets fouled he should wait to see if its called first before complaining

These teams need to meet in the playoffs. It would be so fun. To win, you got to beat the best.

embiid loves a demonstrative regular season basketball game

lol

someone on the sixers bench should remind harden that it's not actually game 6 of a playoff series & it only feels that way in the arena. he brain might boot back up again

his*

lol, he has not been good.

nets offense is serious celtics were playing really good D and they still got torched, sixers so far are not playing good D and are getting torched

So in the 1st quarter, the Sixers outscored the Nets by 9 points at the line ... & the Nets outscored the Sixers by 26 points from the field.

the nets should trade ben simmons

simmons should sit out the rest of the season

dragic has harden in a torture chamber i'm crying

Ben should come back in time for him to do this:

Ben Simmons 4th quarter this series:

Game 1: 2-2 FG
Game 2: 0-0 FG
Game 3: 1-1 FG
Game 4: 0-0 FG
Game 5: 0-0 FG
Game 6: 0-0 FG
Game 7: 0-0 FG

That was v. the Hawks.

one of the most legendary performances we'll ever see

we don't always appreciate it when we're witnessing history

I mean, Sixers aren't going to get it done, I know this. I just want to see Simmons sink the Nets in the playoffs.

can harden sign the $200 million max deal at halftime?

hahahah

sixers could totally get it done imho

Unfortunately, the supporting cast isn't good enough, unless Tobias reverts to his near All-Star form. I've never been a big fan, but he's been terrible recently.

i def don't think it's likely but i do think it's possible that they could come out of the east

damn julius erving looking like he stepped out of a cormac mccarthy film, shoutout to him

i know right

the seedings and injury situations are gonna be so important in the east that it almost feels useless to speculate at this point. whichever of the major teams avoids some of the others and can stay healthy thru 3 series is going to have such a huge advantage

god KD came to play tonight

That was a hell of a play.

i think harden and embiid playing up to their abilities is a bigger question than the other guys cause if they can do that its gonna make it pretty easy for everyone else

i maintain morey is gonna overhaul the roster again this offseason and might even find himself a new coach but obv that's just longterm speculation on my part we'll see how it plays out

Sounds good to me. Everyone outside of Embiid, Maxey, and Harden are fair game.

he might be able to get something done but philly is not in the best position to deal, sent out a bunch in the harden trade already and that harris contract is maybe the worst in the league

Niang has been v good for his role.

joel down, joel cryin lol

yeah i think he's gonna try and find several more niangs. shooter types who are kinda just lying around. richardson for curry type moves

jfc embiid shot 19 fts in the 1st half something needs to be done about this he should be capped at 10 a game

jesus being a PG who takes a charge from embiid.... looks like a jackass sketch

goran is too old for that

it's completely nuts, i also wonder if he can play that physically in the playoffs and stay healthy. he's obviously enjoying just physically dominating ppl but i also wonder if he's playing with fire a bit

see if he tires out in the 2nd half here lot of talk about his conditioning being better
