They've gone to pot without Embiid. I'm hoping Fultz gets out of his mental funk and is able to contribute next month.

Sixers, Fun To Watch

He played through an injury last night which was encouraging. They are 2-7 when he isn't in the lineup and 16-12 when he plays. So while it's frustrating to have him sit often, you can't argue with the results. If it keeps him healthy and puts them in a position to make the playoffs, then this load management made sense.

Can't argue with that I guess. I just think it has to be frustrating for the coach. The other is, and I am not there to hear this, what do fans think when they pay to see a game and he isn't playing. I suppose it is like a lot of BB games where the star sits out. Might not be happy but it is just a fact of life.Wait until next year is a terrible philosophy

Yeah - they still can't close out some big leads but they are fun to watch. Simmons can't shoot and is still one of the more exciting players to watch in the league. Tough loss yesterday. It will be interesting to see if Embiid plays tonight in his first back to back in perhaps ever? He's been cleared as long as he feels up to it.
As for Fultz, it appears to be completely mental. I hope we have a good witch doctor for him because we could use the college version of Fultz right about now.

Didn't see it but read the results. Like the Flyers in that it is nice the team is on the verge of being relevant. Better than knowing going in that they won't be in the game. Just need one or two more good basketball players; can they do that?????? Hope so but still got to see itWait until next year is a terrible philosophy

The Sixers have rebounded nicely. Embiid scared the shit out of me with all his writhing around on the ground. Redick calls him a great actor. I hope that's the case. Adding Belinelli for nothing is a great shot in the arm. They need bench scoring and that's what he delivers. They have a really favorable schedule down the stretch too.

I think I saw somewhere a day or two ago that since the SB the Sixers and Flyers are 8-0. Nice to see a little sunshine.
I think I put it on the EFO board but it was real nice to see Embiid, et al supporting the birds showing up to support the SixersWait until next year is a terrible philosophy
