This team stinks. Where is Mr. Untouchable Jalen Brunson tonight? Bothered by length yet again?

You can blame it all on me

Gonna be a bad loss.   Just a really limited team.    No one inside to scare anyone.   two guys who can create.  And to make it a perfect storm, we can't shoot with straight rims.   Bring back the crooked rims.   

Man, I am not sure if something happened with this team off the court or they are in a rough patch?   They are overmatched severely tonight, but they look like sleeping zombies that past three games.

I am shocked we're not down 20 right now

This 10000%

You are a funny dude. 11 points on 7 shots. Not what I’d call inefficient. But early yet.

Ok, sort of different sides of hustle there.  Embid diving for a loose ball and Luka jogging back after a turnover and not in place to get the loose ball.

Doesn't matter though, Philly is playing with their food against us now.

This has been the longest first half of my life

Luckily to be down only 10 at half.   Probably not going to matter, but lets see if we can get off to a quick start in the third to make it interesting.  Otherwise, we are probably going to lose by 20 plus.

Start Boban to begin the third.   May blow up in our face, but we need something to muck up the game some.  Embid is too strong for Powell.  Taking candy from a baby.  Maybe with Boban, Embid will show off his perimeter skills.   Just got to hope he misses.   

Not a lot of options tonight for the Mavs.

Embiid can get whatever he wants against the Mavs 5’s. And if he can’t, he just draws a foul. Hope they can close the gap as Luka and Embiid are both basketball gifts.

I thought if we just got rid of KP and THJ for air and picks it would all be great, right?  The team would be better and Luka would want to stay through a mini-rebuild of young players and developmental guys.

So far...Offense has gone FARTHER in the crapper....defense is non-existence....since KP and THJ went down.

Guess they weren't worthless like some people thought.  THIS is the team you want if you trade them for developmental players and picks right here.  THIS is what you would watch every night...every night...against OKC and OrLando and the contenders as well.

I, for one, would love to have both of them back today if possible, or if we trade them, we get something worth taking back.

So tired of this roster.

I think everyone would be happy if KP could play more than 60% of his games but that's not the reality we live in.  If the entire team was healthy, we wouldn't be a legitimate contender.

Luka's free throws are still a problem. Looks like the recent hot streak is a fluke

At least he's not taking those ridiculously long 3's. He needs to keep attacking the paint.

OK LUKA WOW

DFS having a nice bounce back game.

LOOK AT THIS DEFENSE!

Helps a lot when Embiid doesn’t get 6 FTs per quarter.

What a tough shot by Bullock there.

Luka is slicing and dicing his way down broadway. The young neophyte is posting and toasting Philly
