Bulls not a very good team right now. Derozan seems to be tired out from his epic run before AS break. Bench has been pretty bad. Lavine not being aggressive.

1st time since I moved to AZ in 2012 that I haven't gone to see Bulls come to Phx. Prices were ridiculous!

makes sense that it would be a hot ticket!chris was sitting on the bench talking to cam while clenching and unclenching his fist, looks like he doesn’t have any kind of support on his thumb now

if you look at the standings and the law right now regarding the play in games nets would play the raptors in toronto without kyrie then if they lost they would play the winner of the 9-10 game in brooklyn without kyrie
― lag∞n, Saturday, 19 March 2022 14:49 (two years ago) link
yeah & then if the raptors move up to 6 we’d get a kyrie return to cleveland game

Between places he is not allowed to play and cities where he has burned bridges, hope everyone is ready for plenty of Kyrie drama and things of that nature in the coming weeks

Everyone just assumes that the playoffs will start and the Celtics will just turn into a pumpkin but they probably believe in the whole thing at this point. Derrick White a huge addition too.

he looked bad he was just out of rhythm taking off balance shots, some of it mightve had to do with the coaching change being asked to do different stuff he looked tentative but hes in the zone now god bless, hes really playing better than he ever has imo particularly from a general soundness style of play perspective being really decisive not pounding the ball making good passes manipulating the defense and so forth, a lot of that has to do with that new coaching so kudos to ime et al

hollinger column on the jagged start in philly

Heading into an alleged showdown against Miami tonight (one that may fizzle if Joel Embiid takes his first DNP-rest since the All-Star break), the Sixers are a somewhat encouraging 11-5 since trading for Harden, but that mark hides deeply underwhelming supporting stats.Philly has just a +1.3 net rating since the deadline despite playing 10 times at home and is a mere 17th in offensive rating in that time. At the Sixers’ best, they’ve had some good moments, including a win in Milwaukee with the Bucks’ three stars in the lineup and a thrashing of a good Wolves team. Alas, they got absolutely smoked by the Heat, Nets and Celtics, and then there was Sunday’s debacle.At the center of this is the idea that Harden can still be the leading man on an elite offense, a concept for which the Sixers paid dearly. He shot 5-for-12 with six turnovers on Sunday, repeatedly struggling to finish at the rim against length. Harden averaged over 30 points a game for three straight seasons in Houston; as a Sixer, he doesn’t have a single 30-point game to his credit.

further...
Of course, the question here isn’t just about Harden. Embiid is an MVP candidate, one of the three best players in the league this season at a minimum, but is the supporting cast around him enough?Most notably, they’re paying Harris $36 million to turn down open 3-point looks (check out how unworried the Raptors were about him on the game’s final play); he’s slated to make $77 million in the two years after this one. Trading for him and then splurging on a max deal was this franchise’s original sin.It goes beyond Harris, though. Danny Green is showing his age at 34, and the departure of Seth Curry has left a shooting void; suffice it to say Furkan Korkmaz (29.1 percent) and Shake Milton (29.3 percent) haven’t filled it. Even second-year revelation Tyrese Maxey shows his warts, still getting targeted on defense (at least when Georges Niang isn’t around to attack). Thybulle, of course, is an awesome defender, but he leaves Philly playing four-on-five on offense.In a familiar story, the non-Embiid minutes remain a massive problem. Including Andre Drummond in the Harden trade has left Philly scraping the barrel with a well-past-his-prime Jordan. (Jordan has had a great career, but he can’t jump anymore. This is getting painful to watch.) Not that other options have proven any better; Philly has been outscored by 141 points in the non-Embiid minutes this season.
