Doc Rivers turned heel. Somebody photoshop Carlisle´s head on his shoulders.

Wow. How can you say that after the game we just witnessed. You can think it, but damn you can´t say it.

Ya, it sounds like a guy that doesn't want the job anymore for sure.

Good job Trae.

Doc Rivers is a joke but as overrated as he is, he is still better than Rick Carlisle. Let that sink in.

You and Bartlettbear are the only.NBA fans who believe that...

Rivers is the GOAT Game 7 Choker...

He should know that he has to learn how to add some (FT) shooting. So you trade him now, he goes into the summer, puts up 10000 FTs, learns some floater, you trade him and then he comes back a changed player, you look like a complete moron. So you give him a chance and you will wait until at least the next trade deadline, especially with the possibility that Lavine or Beal become available (ugh )

What are you thoughts on trading KP? 

That description is the exact same description for KP too.

Simmons doesn't include the ticking time bomb of KP's health. He could be lucky and play out the rest of his contract injury-free. History says there's no way that happens. 

I wish Rivers were the Sixers' stupid GM instead of the Sixers' stupid coach.

The problem is that Porzingis is one injury away from becoming DeMarcus Cousins on a max contract.

Better than Carlisle. GTFO.

They're all turning on him now.

They both have a history full of injuries. 

KP's ACL knee is completely fine. and the other knee had a meniscus injury that's not a major injury especially when it's repaired like it was. 

I think if you have serious issues with KP's potential health, it's really just the realization of 7 footers having a long history of being extremely fragile. I mean look at Embiid.
Dirk is the real unicorn because he's one of the few 7 foot bigs that never got hurt. 

And to be fair... Some people pointed out the injury concerns before KP ever played a game here. Not me but there were a few that did.

And Simmons isn't it?

Doc Rivers play calling out of a timeout. Notice that Simmons, Thybull and Howard are all on the bench and the spacing still sucks. Curry was in the same corner as well but came over to set a screen a few seconds earlier.

KP for Simmons.  Flawed for flawed.  Let's go!

Love it. Make him the scapegoat. Tank his value and trade him. Embiid had a good stretch in the early 4th quarter but overall he wasn´t any better. Liability on defense and turnover machine on offense. Same for Harris. Couldn´t hit anything in the last two games.

It has been one of the worst kept secrets for the past few years than Simmons and Embiid hate each other off the court.

I give Embiid a break. He's clearly playing hurt. He also had some really good moments. He also got all the defensive attention.

Here too. He's one of the best players in the game for sure. But a big man needs good guards.

RC hasn't even had a chance to do anything in the last 10 years because he's been coaching 6th-8th seeds or worse here. The only edge Doc has on him is being a players' coach. But that only goes so far if you don't bring any X's and O's or adjustments in the playoffs too (unless you have LeBron)

Amen brother.
