    I'm just glad we avoided Miami. 

    Would be quite a run to get the Celtics followed up by the Knicks. 
    Some people were saying that it was so cowardly to want to avoid the Heat, being that they are a 6 seed and don’t seem like a great team. But to me there is a difference between fearing losing the series vs. wanting the 2nd round series to be as easy as possible. Do I think the Sixers would lose a 7-game series to the Heat? No. Would I rather play the Knicks if given the choice? Fuck yeah. Ben Simmons has literally NEVER lost to the Knicks. Meanwhile the Heat give us fits regularly. Why not have the easiest path possible? Isn’t that why you strive for the 1 seed? 

    How could we actually try to avoid the Heat though?  I don't get it.  The 1 seed was so so so important this year.  There was no trying to lose to not face the heat.

    But yes, I don't want to play the Heat.

    That's awesome!

    Perfect Game 1 - overcoming some adversity, a standout performance by our C-star, and the signature 3rd quarter run that elite teams are supposed to do.

    Gotta say limiting the crowd size is curious. They have half the sections of the arena packed, and half of them just empty. What's the point of that?

    Was thinking the same thing. That makes zero sense to me.

    Yeah, I mean shouldn't they use all sections, but leave space between folks?

    I honestly didn’t even notice it that much, but this isn’t the first I’ve heard about it so I’m sure it’s true.

    To be honest, I think they don’t really give a fuck anymore now that it’s 50% and will likely be 100% soon. For the other games when it was 15-25% they were extremely strict about masks, constantly telling people to put them over their nose and such. But yesterday they were putting people on the Jumbotron that had them under their chin or not on at all. 

    So if there’s some sort of strategic advantage to spacing people a certain way (I don’t know? acoustics of the building? People are louder and feed off of each other when they’re closer together?) then they probably said screw it and just did that.

    For the record, my girlfriend and I were right on the aisle and there was only 1 seat between us and the people to our left, and there were 2 people directly in front of and behind us. It definitely seemed like our section was more like 75% full.

    *Trigger warning for The Juggler* 

    Based on some leaks it looks like the NBA will be doing jerseys for the 75th anniversary of the league next year that will be mashups of multiple designs throughout teams’ history. No leak of the Sixers design yet, but I will proceed with getting my hopes up only to likely be disappointed when it’s revealed.

    I mean...some of these are kind of cool. I've seen worse. Why not just go completely old school for the 75th though? Pick out a team's most iconic jersey and just use that one. 

    All I want is the 80's Sixers jerseys to come back. Simple, elegant, tough. Perfection.

    I kind of like some of them too. Notice the striping on the side of the Nets jersey as a nod to the ABA Nets jerseys. That’s a classy touch. Hawks ones are really nice too.

    Sixers jerseys throughout the years are weird to me, because they are almost all really good, but none of them are stone cold classics in my opinion. Iverson-era will always be my favorites, but that’s 100% due to nostalgia. I really like the white/blue 80s jerseys, but the away version in red would be so much better in blue in my opinion. I am a total sucker for blue though. The current blue jerseys very well might be my favorite Sixers jerseys ever if I wasn’t so biased towards the Iverson ones.

    The Sixers old blue ones were from the 70's. They were the home white and road red's in the 80's during Doc and Barkley's era. Maybe I am biased towards them but I think they're the best. I never liked the Iverson era ones for the same reason I hate the black Eagles jersey---black has never been one of their team colors! lol.....whenever teams went that route, it just wreaked of a 90's kind of gimmick to me. 

    Yeah I like the Nets, Bulls and Mavs ones a little bit. For the Hawks, I wish they'd go for the 80's Dominque era. Nothing from that 90's Hawks era stands out to me at all.
