Ok now doc and harden, you had a 3-1 lead coming home. Now, you're headed back to Canada up 3-2...

This is why the 82 game season matters. To echo what the talking heads in TV are saying the season allows time to mesh. You use that time over the course of the season to “gel”
 
I know Sixers fans are NERVOUS….

DON’T LIE
Doc gets fired and goes to the Lakers if it happens sooooooo



¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But nah it’s just some weird parallels similar to the 2019 series that got me shook. In 2019, Siakam had an injury in game 4 that led to Nurse running out the big lineup and we had zero answer for it (Ibaka). This year FVV got the injury in game 4 and so far no answer for it. We got our asses handed to in game 5 then (and did yesterday). At least this time around we’re up 3-2

Maxey is too scared to do anything when he has OG/Barnes/Siakam on him. Hasn’t made a jumpshot, passing up open 3s to dribble into the lane and dribble out. That’s the biggest problem with FVV out, if I’m Toronto I’m keeping him out lol

Turnovers early in the 1st quarter just aren’t helping the team at all. Just lazy passes. Tobias the only one who’s shown up every game

Would love to see Doc in LA. :pimp:

But if you guys do blow this series, that may be the least of your worries….

I have no idea how the Sixers could allow themselves to sign Harden to THAT extension - Doing so would be damn near malpractice IMO.

Two year max with a team option after the first year
 
Two year max with a team option after the first year

That’s what you’d like - you mean?

That would be the smart thing. I just think Harden has so much leverage because Morey is all in.

This Harden contract and what the Sixers do is the biggest story this offseason IMO.
 
The length really got the sixers cooked

Raptors switching every time 1-5 on the defense end

On the offense they just hunting mis matches, either pulling embiid out the paint to drive or even just going right at embiid because of his thumb

Sixers had no energy and no leader that stepped up

That should be the case. He gets his money and if he comes to camp in shape and has a good year, don’t pick up the option and give a long term contract with good but less money

This year with the Simmons shenanigans was always gonna be a wash. Harden trade happened too late to even try to get other options in instead of waiting on buyouts

Get a better fitting wing by trading Danny and Maltese. Get a better backup 4 than Niang

Yea I’m with you. That’d be the smart thing to do.

I just don’t think Harden is trying to hear that.
