If they fuck up this first round then I think it's time to hook Brown.
It’s unfortunate for Brown because he should get another year to work with this lineup. They’ve only been on the court for ten games so far. But I think if they don’t make it to the ECF, they’re going to need a scapegoat. A first round loss? Yeah definitely. The Nets always give them problems but there’s just too much talent to lose to them though, even if Jo misses a couple games.
well if they could make their 3 pointers and free throws it would have been a different story. Simmons, Redick and Harris did not play well at all. Better win on Monday!

agree, i mean who could have foreseen Embiid having to miss a bunch of games in his career due to injuries
the only good that might come out of an early loss and Brown being fired is they take Jay Wright away from nova.

You said he would never be healthy.
I’m on record as saying I’d keep him on a minutes restriction and give him rest days for his entire career. No back to backs ever, mostly. Gotta preserve this guys health as long as possible.
At one point early in the season I think he was leading the league in minutes played. No need for that.
Either way, it’s not just Embiid I was talking about. Butler missed a bunch of time too. They have not had much time to develop chemistry yet.
And Jay’s not going anywhere. He has his dream job already.

for what it's worth, i talked to someone very close to jay, who says the only job jay would leave for is the sixers, and that josh harris (a nova guy) is interested in jay.
I think the Sixers win tonight but this series is going to be tight. I still think they win it but it won't be easy and they are probably going out in the next round.

Here's the Philadelphian in me: Boo Ben Simmons for eternity.
....or at least until he develops a jump shot?
So likely eternity.
You're both right.
If they were to win the next 17 championships with him then boo him out of spite. Big fan of the Spite Boo.
This is what I was eluding to in that article about why he wouldn't do the rookie thing and do something stupid as pick up Chik Fil A for the team. Someone commented that rookie hazing is stupid, which is true....and definitely not the point. Just pick up the Chik Fil A, and it speaks more to who he thinks he is. Which is a fucking pussy.
I'm late but we had more players on the court that didn't want to shoot than would actual shoot the ball. I know it's TJ but down 16 and wide open for a corner 3, just take it. Harris and Ben were awful. How can you run an offense when players won't shoot? 3 of 5 starters took the day off. And, shut up Ben.
Alright, alright, alright!

yea let's boo a guy who was rookie of the year and an all-star in his 2nd season (in probably the toughest league to be an all-star). these are the same morons who used to boo ryan howard. i love this town some times
yea he said something dumb after game 1 but at least he wasn't looking at a cell phone laughing on the bench.

Definitely sounds like it was the Sixers' fault. You should sue.
I’d be sidelined for at least 2-3 days doing that nowadays. God bless you.
decided I had a great fucking time. Took some time to overcome what I was going through
