        Damn, they had three chances, but couldn't get anything to drop there. Memphis shouldn't be losing this one, but here we are.

          Those FTs should seal the game.

            Why aren't the Portland starters playing? God I'd be so pissed if I paid tickets for that game

                Great comeback by Philly. Memphis just can't finish anymore lately. They been in alot of those type of games and just run out of gas nearing the end.

                  Philly is a frustratingly good team. They have a lot of wins that they shouldn't have gotten, but at the same time, they wouldn't have got those wins in years past. Bane cooled off, but Sixers are a flip the switch team and it shows they could be contenders if they play a full game.

                  Embiid almost with a 20-20. Yeah both teams shot >41% FG, but why can't we get this type of rebounding performance consistently from Embiid lol. 6 blocks and assists from Embiid. This was a game where Philly's top 4 guys stepped up. 5 assists from Harden I believe in the 4th along with 31 points. And 5 points to seal the game from Tobias, to go along with 20 points

                    I know what you mean, but I can see both sides of it. One the one side, yeah...I would be pissed if the stars did not play and I bought an expensive ticket to go to the Blazers game. I saw Memphis vs Detroit a few months ago and would've been mad if a Morant wasn't playing, so I hear you for sure.

                    On the other side though, if these teams are trying to compete for a championship, I mean seriously, I can understand why they would be having the days off during regular season to rest up or fix any nagging injuries. They gotta be ready to go come April and May, so I can see that side too.

                    It's a business, and they have to consider maximizing their time to win when it counts, but I agree that sometimes I wish there was a better balance between team success & the fans' entertainment for their $$$.

                      Philly showed some fortitude tonight, they could have easily packed it in early.

                      Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.

                      Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

                          Memphis games just always chippy at this point, they really miss Adams.

                          And yes Brooks is incredibly streaky and takes the toughest shots possible. He’s been a bit worse than normal this year, not many of those games where he catches fire. But he takes Kobe shots, shots that even great players won’t shoot at super high percentages.

                          Problem with him is when he joined the team Ja couldn’t shoot, there was no Bane, he was the only guy who could really create his own shot out of nothing. Whether it’s him, coaching, whatever he’s never dialed that back. More suited for a 6th man role IMO.

                              Kris Dunn is back in the league. He's playing well for the Jazz tonight.

                                Lakers got a squad now. Theres work to be done. But that team could be hell if they make it in to the playoffs. Got a nasty bench. And they just flow together, It's really night and day. Where before they just grinded every game. Health permitting of course.
