    This will be awful. Nurse will eat CB’s lunch. I thought in light of everything Philly looked stronger than expected against MIL. I don’t see why MIL hired a rookie coach when they have a window of 3 years.

    I don't think Maxey, Melton, Oubre and PatBev coming off a really close loss are the players for Scoot to get out of his foul trouble against and if The Beard is playing that compounds shit... but hey who knows maybe the elevated talent level will make Scoot rise to the occasion.

    Regardless this Sixers team is going to blow our doors off but it's all about the development of these young guys. Let's hope we see some growth and new things out of some of them.

    Can the league have a moral victory column? Cause if we lose by less than 30 we should get our first win in that column.

    This could get really ugly in a hurry unless some of the vets start to show up more than they have. The 'just-got-paid' duo of Tisse and Grant are so far, an unengaged embarrassment.

    Maxey might score 50 in this game.

    TBF, Matisse is like putting a spoiler on a 1982 Ford Taurus. A bit of a luxury off the bench player for a playoff team. Portland needs to start with 5 guys who can dribble/pass/shoot, initiate some offense and play defense. Even strictly as a defensive only player Tisse is a bit of a novelty to be used in the right scheme with the right players behind him.

    PHI caught MIL on cruise control. Pretty much all of their runs came with Dame/Giannis on the bench. Tyrese Maxey hit a lot of big shots to keep the 76ers in it.

    They will all have a shit show component, for sure. With Chauncey at the helm at least it seems.

    If the Sixers will give us 3 1st round draft picks I would totally trade Ayton for Harden and let the beard walk at the end of the season.

    Sadly, they don't have 3 firsts to give.

    They should trade someone and get some so they can give them to us.

    Maybe Harden will show up and demand to play?
    Might get a win if he creates a big enough stink?

    I agree it wasn't pretty, but not a complete and absolute drubbing like I'm expecting tomorrow.
