I think Trae might be on the outs if he doesn't like the regime change lol seems like the franchise is really starting to sour on him just going off reports and everything

Yeah I was done with him a while back. GAFan has been trying to convince me for years now. But I finally agree with him. Trae needs to go or change.


KD plays basketball tonight. 7 am sharp vs the Hornets

Re: February Games Discussion Thread

Embiid is out tonight with foot soreness. They have a back to back tomorrow with Mavs, so makes sense. They're going small ball with Tucker at center and a 3 guard lineup

Yea that’s the way it’s looking the biggest example was earlier In the year after the trade rumblings. They sent him out to interview with the press on his own and got grilled by one reporter

The mismatch pod said it good that this is the first coach to have More power then Trae. Plus you can’t blame the coach if it’s a 1st round exit this year after a late start

Go figure up 20 without Embiid. Heat is due for a run in the 2nd half though

Re: February Games Discussion Thread

So far, Sixers are hot from three(11-21), Miami is cold 4-15. 20-5 Fastbreak advantage. Sixers bench is contributing so far.

But, I do see a trend on games when Embiid sits. They play with a lot more pace and energy. Obviously with Embiid and Harden, they'll really slow it down. But, they have to find a way to up the pace and energy, when Embiid is on the bench. That's how they need to play.

Miami definitely needs to make some type of move in the offseason. Lowry is washed and injury proned. They need a true Point Guard and two wing. They feel like they are two reliant on Jimmy and Herro cooking and hitting threes.

Casey went from winning COY to immediately getting fired to Coaching this team that still seems a few years away from being a playoff team. I wonder how long does he want to stick with this team.

Re: February Games Discussion Thread

Impressive win by the Sixers to blow out Miami without Embiid. Harden had a good first half. Maxey is looking like he's getting his confidence back. This might have been the best Paul Reed game of his career lol, outside of maybe the first Brooklyn game without Maxey, Embiid, Harden. They have to figure out how to play with this type of energy and pace when Embiid is on the bench. I also like the defensive switching. They should try that when Embiid is off the floor. This game should be a lesson for them.

I just don't buy Miami. They are so dependent on Butler. When Butler can't get it going and their threes aren't falling, I'm not really surprised of this result.

Sixers are 9-4 without Embiid and those 4 losses were probably games where they either turned the ball over too much or shot poorly. It's so weird that they can survive without him for a game, but when he subs out for 6 minutes at a time, everything goes to **** lol.

Thybulle playing really way out of the gates. That block and dunk the other way.
