Re: 10/24 - 11/6 Games Discussion Thread

Oubre starting temporarily until Nurse figures out which of Clippers guy to start. I prefer Oubre off the bench. Sixers need his offensive impact and energy off the bench. Out of the former Clippers guys, I'm leaning towards Batum or Roco. Roco would be the closest Tucker replacement, even though Tucker is a better defender, but RoCo is a better offensive player.

Sixers will miss Tucker's impact. His rebounding, toughness, IQ, hustle, and willingness to take on the best wing. But, it'll be nice not have a complete 0 on offense. It was easy for defenses to help off Tucker because he would pass off shots and would only take corner threes. Perimeter defense will take a hit, but offense should be better

I missed the second half of LA-LA. Trying to catch up this morning. Having 2 kids is no joke to the soul. I'm all about those early games lol

I hear you. I don’t even have any kids yet, and still it’s difficult for me to stay up for those late west coast games. I just work early.

I may have to invest in that YouTube TV app. I had the free trial last year and loved it. Watching 76ers v Raptors now.

Contract Year Tobias Harris is no joke lol. Playing in a more free flowing offense has unlocked him instead of being a spot up only guy under Doc..

Siakam has been invisible, but OG has played stellar defense. He's the guy I want Sixers to trade for. OG would be a great third guy next to Embiid and Maxey

This is what I suggested to my friend. Get it for a month if you find yourself not using it. Just pause it.

True. I just don't know if OG will change that much. He would be amazing defensive. They haven't had anyone on that end besides Embiid.

Detroit getting their **** pushed in by Pels. Who are without Zion and BI. CJ got 25 at halftime..

With Embiid and Maxey, you're not asking OG to be PG13. You're asking him to he Klay Thompson essentially. Tobias has been solid on the perimeter defensively, OG is at the top tier

I think any deal that happens has to involve Harris

Sixers start 3-1, could easily be 4-0 if not for a spectacular Dame first game and spotty ref calls. Contract year guys are stepping it up. Tobias has be efficient and more aggressive, Kelly has been good, Kormaz looked good in this game since they won't trade him after 3 requests lol. Embiid's effort on the glass and defensive end has been much needed


Sixers are a more fun watch this year. That slow methodical, predictable offense last couple years wasn't fun to watch.

Doc and then James.... RIP.

At this point, I wouldn't mind that. But, I don't know if Harris-Barnes-Siakam is a good trio. Any major trade would either have to involve the trio of Clippers guys or Harris. I would be okay trading Harris and keeping the Clippers guys for depth.

Matt Ryan just got a ball thrown off his nuts. That **** look painfully!!

Almost 4 guys with 20 points. Siakam was a complete no show.

I'm not going to completely s**t on Doc. Won 50 games each year, team was top 10 in offense and defense, gameplan was centered around Embiid being the top scorer and geared towards MVP. But, so glad that offense is gone. I don't fully discredit the Harden quote about I'm not a system player, I'm a system. Doc was a system guy. He's a "this a my system, and this was what you're role is in that". Doc wouldn't stray away from that and that was his downfall.
