JJ continuing to be the unsung hero.

Don't know what's up with Donovan this year. I think he'll eventually right the ship, but his efficiency is atrocious.

Yea, that was a really ugly quarter. Turnovers and missed free throws. 2nd game in a row they have had a 16 point lead or more in a game.

I think Donovan has just been scouted in the offseason. He's probably not getting some of the easy stuff he did last season. I'm not surprised at all.

JJ is such a critical piece to the 76ers. Elite shooter, team leader, and he really has a chemistry with Embiid. He can drive at times, is adequate enough with the ball in his hands. He’s a liability on defense, but it is what it is. I think they’d be SOL without him. After getting to watch him in Philly, I have a much greater appreciation for his game.

I thought about buying some of his cards but I think his efficiency is going to continue to be a problem.

Nice win for the Sixers, if Embiid can work on his decision making and Simmons can work on his shot they could be scary.

Jimmy and the boys went to work...

If anything jimmy buckets competes and should help this team respond when they get down.. glad they bounced back

Bumps · 11-17-2018, 08:54 PM

This is getting hard to watch.

It’s the same issues EVERY SINGLE GAME

Bret Brown is in over his head, doesn’t make adjustments, lineups don’t make sense, doesn’t call timeouts when the other team goes on a run.

I’m sick of it.

Ok, so they responded nicely right after I posted that.

Let’s see if they can close it out

Just gonna continue talking to myself here because I need to vent...

This team can’t close out games, can’t hold big leads, and doesn’t have a legit coach.

How are they supposed to win the East let alone a playoff series.

Simmons should have just dunked that.

Philly are still learning how to win.

Jimmy is a closer, Embiid is growing in that facet. Redick is your big shot maker.

Keep this team together. I'd like to see them add more legit 3 and D guys though

pgisback · 11-17-2018, 09:39 PM

Refs bailed Kemba out with that call. Had nothing going up against Chandler and Embiid.

tjforce · 11-17-2018, 09:40 PM

Heck of a game.... Kemba will wind up with 60+

pgisback · 11-17-2018, 09:54 PM

Wow! What a play by Jimmy!!

ballhawkdawk · 11-17-2018, 09:55 PM

What a nasty play by Butler. I’m certainly happy with this trade.

ninjacookies · 11-17-2018, 09:55 PM

Kemba is lighting them up. Probably the most overlooked lethal scorer in the game.

ballhawkdawk · 11-17-2018, 09:56 PM

And the game winner!! This motherF-er is incredible.

He tuned them up earlier in the season as well.

He's a stud.

Jimmy Buckets doing what he does best.

Clutch.

ballhawkdawk · 11-17-2018, 10:00 PM

There’s this air of relief when Butler is doing these post game interviews. He seems to be thrilled to be on a team that’s actually game to compete.

ballhawkdawk · 11-17-2018, 10:03 PM

Fultz seems to be figuring things out a bit at a time. He really needs to start going strong to the hoop, though. His layups get gobbled up quite a bit. He’ll leave a defender standing still and then put up a soft layup as if there isn’t a center lurking to make his shot disappear. If he went hard he’d either get the dunk or the foul.

His free throw routine is now borderline comical. But at least he's not pump faking himself out anymore.

Yeah. I remember watching that and thinking, “oh this is gonna be bad on national media.” Then next game he has this goofy throw it back and forth between his hands and then quick release FT shot. I’m thinking WTF is this? Whatever. I hope he figures it out with time. He has a ton of ability but still needs a lot of fine tuning to become the combo guard he was expected to become.

tjforce · 11-17-2018, 10:12 PM

Simmons played like a star.

Embiid was dominate as usual.

Reddick got his scoring.

And Butler was clutch.

Add a guy or two near the deadline and this team could be dangerous.
