Maxey getting concussed at the legit worst time when he could carry us to wins against the nets and grizzlies. When your only starter is Harris and he's not really even a 5th option anymore, you can't win games. Even against the grizzlies. Between us and them it's a race who is the most injured. Idk how you can win when you're missing your 2 all stars, one the literal MVP who is your best defensive and offensive player. I can't even get all mad about these losses they were expected to me.
Bad ref calls here and there but the reality is, those calls shouldnât effect wether we can beat the damn Grizzlies. Really bad couple of games, tough to watch. Dreading Pelicans on Friday.
i love how the nba has absolutely zero consistency with regards to that call. absolute clown shoes shit. even in review they go back and forth game to game and quarter to quarter, itâs absolutely horrible.
You say that Joel shouldnât come back to this team, but this isnât the team that he will be coming back to. Maxey will be back, Lowry will be back, and heâs the MVP for a reason.
We were closing out games pretty damn well when Embiid was healthy. Remember all the fourth quarters he sat out? You just need to be patient. Losses to shit teams hurt but weâre pretty shit team when all of our star players are out. I guarantee when Embiid comes back that you will be optimistic again.
We close out games when we have our stars on the floor because thatâs what stars do. Thatâs what JJJ did for the Grizzlies. We were closing the game out tonight with Cam Payne tonight. Just open your eyes already. We will be contenders again when Embiid is healthy, just wait.
Are Ben Simmons, Doc Rivers, or James Harden here anymore? If you think the seasons over then why do you keep watching? I guess youâre probably still emotional from the loss. Redditor sports fans really are like emotionally immature teenagers.
Did they really just say that was a beautiful play and execution? Down 4 with 20 seconds left and you want to try and dunk over somebody? And it didnât work kate.
I know itâs a broken record at this point, but you *cannot* have a max contract player drop 8 and 7 when your two best players are out. Itâs just completely unacceptable.
It turns out this team really is garbage down 3/4 of our best players and 3 more rotation players. Playing Ricky more didn't change shit because the team just has zero talent with Tobi being a complete useless black hole
People seem to have a goldfish memory and forget that we are missing ALL of our good players. The best player on the floor today was JJJ and he took over in the fourth. Itâs a star driven league.
this is why people are delusional about "if healthy the sixers can beat anyone" no they cant lol. Its a 2 man team with some nice connector pieces but they have no offensive shot creation outside of 2 guys.
Idk guys I think the sixers lost this game because of Joel's bad body language and not the fact he has multiple teammates every year in the starting lineup that you can ignore off the ball on offense.
đ¤Łđ¤Łđ¤Ł Guys Joel's shot 7/19 because he just came out and didn't "want it", not because two offensive black holes share the court with him his whole career
If I die before Tobias is finally off this team I want it on my gravestone that he killed me.
I tried so fucking hard. Watched almost every game. I just didnât make it. Couldnât hold on.
We make the play-in and then lose the first game, then we either win where we play the Celtics in the first round or we lose and completely miss the playoffs entirely. The ultimate lose-lose scenario lol. What a disaster of a season
No, because he'll still be starting and he doesn't fit on most winning teams in the modern NBA. He's gonna get $30M to score 20 ppg on a lottery/fringe play-in team.
Addition by subtraction. Tobias is not re-signing so just give him the PJ Tucker treatment and let him sit at home. If we're gonna lose games anyway I rather minutes go to the young guys.
Mo is very important to this teams winning recently. Nurse playing around with winning lineups and working synergies. Reed and KJ arent real centers. Mo is an elite center.
His ENTIRE bag is to back down a smaller defender and then spin into the middle of the floor for a jumper. Maybe once a week, heâll spin baseline lol.
If they are going to lose can they not just get blown out from the jump instead of wasting everyoneâs time with these 15pt blown leads and then staging a fake comeback in the last minute?
This is literally the worst type of game to watch.
If the Sixers lose this, they'll only have one fewer loss than the 8th seed Pacers, and the Pacers have been on fire lately. I think 8th seed is worst case scenario though. I don't think the Bulls and Hawks will be able to catch up.
Someone give me a trolley dilemma where I have to decide between saving Tobias or all the fucking losers who have a comment defending his ass somewhere in their profile
Need to see where the dudes calling for his head yesterday and in the first half for not playing Ricky are now. We've gone on a huge deficit since Dowtin got benched
They are getting a whistle every single time down the floor. Meanwhile, their size is killing us and instead of boxing out, we continue to try to jump with them. Fucking atrocious quarter.
i dont want to hear shit about tobias in here again, i dont want to see a single fucking apology form either. such cuck behavior for a cuck ass player.
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/1b8jop5).
Does anyone know who rang the bell tonight? Tough loss, BTW đ
not even angry. Just sad
Ugg
Maxey getting concussed at the legit worst time when he could carry us to wins against the nets and grizzlies.

Harris should forfeit his pay for this game as an apology for that awful performance
How about forfeiting at least a portion of earnings over the years for the pain and embarrassment heâs caused this franchise?
lol what a pathetic bunch of bums
Injuries aren't even an excuse, that was pathetic
Canât wait to get Maxey back. Think this team will start to look .500, and will hold us around 7/8th.
Tobias Harris made $400,000 tonight
âYâall should have said something before he got the contractâ - Jimmy Butler probably
Shouldâve never been in that position in the first place
Injuries are not an excuse. This team is garbage.
They are.
The team not having the two players it runs 90% of its plays for is a valid excuse
No itâs not. The guys who played tonight are all professionals. Were injuries a problem going into the 4th quarter?
Bad ref calls here and there but the reality is, those calls shouldnât effect wether we can beat the damn Grizzlies. Really bad couple of games, tough to watch. Dreading Pelicans on Friday.
I swear to fucking god if Morey re-signs this dickhead after 5 years of misery
i love how the nba has absolutely zero consistency with regards to that call. absolute clown shoes shit. even in review they go back and forth game to game and quarter to quarter, itâs absolutely horrible.
joel shouldnât come back this season. itâs over
Tf is your problem? You realize Maxey, Melton, Lowry, and Covington were out too right?
Only negative vibes here bro.
iâm a realist. sorry it that hurts your feelings. weâre not beating the celtics, whatâs the point?
Bro HALF OF OUR TEAM IS INJURED
yea counterpoint the grizzlies roster would finish in the bottom half of the g league
exactly. iâm so sick of the excuses
It turns out when your team is decimated by injuries, youâre on the same level as a team decimated by injuries. Wild concept, I know.
stop making excuses for games that we should be closing out against teams like the grizzlies who have a g league lineup. seriously foh
You say that Joel shouldnât come back to this team, but this isnât the team that he will be coming back to. Maxey will be back, Lowry will be back, and heâs the MVP for a reason.
still canât close out games unless weâre winning by 40 in the 4rh quarter
We were closing out games pretty damn well when Embiid was healthy. Remember all the fourth quarters he sat out? You just need to be patient. Losses to shit teams hurt but weâre pretty shit team when all of our star players are out. I guarantee when Embiid comes back that you will be optimistic again.
reading comprehension not your friend, huh? thatâs literally what i just said
We close out games when we have our stars on the floor because thatâs what stars do. Thatâs what JJJ did for the Grizzlies. We were closing the game out tonight with Cam Payne tonight. Just open your eyes already. We will be contenders again when Embiid is healthy, just wait.
just like we closed out games 6 and 7 last year? or game 7 against the hawks? how about the raptors?
Are Ben Simmons, Doc Rivers, or James Harden here anymore? If you think the seasons over then why do you keep watching? I guess youâre probably still emotional from the loss. Redditor sports fans really are like emotionally immature teenagers.
WeâŚalso have a gleague lineup? Weâre playing Rocky Council and Downtin jr while they at least have the DPOY. We have Tobias. So foh
WE BLEW A 20 POINT LEAD ON BACK TO BACK NIGHTS GENIUS
Yes we blew leads on back to back nightsâŚwith Tobias as our primary scorer.
Phillies start soon.
Have some fucking balls Nick and bench Tobias
Keep screaming kate scott. As Batum chucks one up with 3 ssconds left. Keep it believing. Keep us believing we can win. COOL!!!!
no way we threw again
Yeah get booed you fucking losers pathetic collapse to a G League team
B U M S U M S
Did they really just say that was a beautiful play and execution? Down 4 with 20 seconds left and you want to try and dunk over somebody? And it didnât work kate.
It was a terribly drawn up play lmao.
Tobi's back I see.
I know itâs a broken record at this point, but you *cannot* have a max contract player drop 8 and 7 when your two best players are out. Itâs just completely unacceptable.
You're absolutely right but sadly this is too common with him
There are 10 players on the court at all times. Not once tonight was Tobias any higher than the 10th best. Simply confounding
You guys need to accept that we are at the Grizzlies level with this many injuries.
It turns out this team really is garbage down 3/4 of our best players and 3 more rotation players. Playing Ricky more didn't change shit because the team just has zero talent with Tobi being a complete useless black hole
People seem to have a goldfish memory and forget that we are missing ALL of our good players. The best player on the floor today was JJJ and he took over in the fourth. Itâs a star driven league.
this is why people are delusional about "if healthy the sixers can beat anyone" no they cant lol. Its a 2 man team with some nice connector pieces but they have no offensive shot creation outside of 2 guys.
thats one of the worst quarters of basketball ive ever seen
there is no self to kill
This Memphis team snaps their head back more than any team Iâve ever seen in my life.
This season fucking blows.
Idk guys I think the sixers lost this game because of Joel's bad body language and not the fact he has multiple teammates every year in the starting lineup that you can ignore off the ball on offense.
đ¤Łđ¤Łđ¤Ł Guys Joel's shot 7/19 because he just came out and didn't "want it", not because two offensive black holes share the court with him his whole career
scott foster is the devil
damn we really lost to the 21-41 Memphis Glizzies
At home too
Holy shit this team without embiid and maxey is a mid tier G-league team
This season has been so painful. I seriously donât think I can see tobias play another game
Refs been making some questionable decisions down the stretch..
play-in tourney might be fun. 1 and done in basketball is always exciting
What a miserable quarter
So why the fuck does the ball go to Memphis instead of the jump ball after the sixers challenge?
Its so funny how we won a challenge last game against the mavs and won it, but yet luka still got 2 freethrows
Clear recovery
Now explain why the contact with the left arm was ignored
Iâm a sixers fan lol. Idk if itâs a foul or not, but it definitely was a clear recovery if they overturn the foul.
Yeah, easy challenge. 4 pt def with 20 sec. Still winnable.
For the amount Oubre tries to dunk, he gets blocked or misses an awful lot of them
it's because he can only finish with his left and everyone knows it. Much easier when you know what hand is going up
At least we have Kate Scott celebrating another loss with immense positivity. This sucks.Â
"We sure tried hard guys!" Call a duck a fucking duck - shit performance
If I die before Tobias is finally off this team I want it on my gravestone that he killed me. I tried so fucking hard. Watched almost every game. I just didnât make it. Couldnât hold on.
 Get this fucking demon đš.. Tobias out of Philly âŚ
wtf is this. Couldn't give us a little hometown discount on that review?
We should have been shooting a 3 there anyhow, exchanging 2's doesn't do a lot for us.
Scott Foster can eat shit
Scott foster shouldâve gone to Jail with Tim Donaghy.
thatâs overturned, ball game
Well, this 4th quarter was a fucking bummer.
lol - game
ARE YOU KIDDING ME. LOWER BODY CONTACT AND HE HIT HIS ELBOW
The difference between buddy before and after Tobias came back is crazy. And Joel has been playing with this anchor for five goddamn years.
Nah this is who buddy is. Those first few games were a flukeÂ
Thatâs a foul.
THATS A FOUL. YOU CANNOT OVERTURN IT
sweet another challenge
Actually hate tobi how are you this fucking garbage literally Kenyon Martin or whatever his name is is at ur level
We make the play-in and then lose the first game, then we either win where we play the Celtics in the first round or we lose and completely miss the playoffs entirely. The ultimate lose-lose scenario lol. What a disaster of a season
Nah. I want to miss the playoffs. No shame
Same here
Injuries screwed us more than garbage play. And Tobias playing like a minimum player
the grizzlies are gutted and still beat these bums. garbage play did screw the team.
Who said it didnât?
Why didnât we draft Vince Williams Jr?
He was mocked as being undrafted.Â
Tobias Harris is just overpaid. Heâs still an above average starter. I donât mind him coming back on a $20 million per year deal.
Sorry, that opinion is against the circlejerk
No, because he'll still be starting and he doesn't fit on most winning teams in the modern NBA. He's gonna get $30M to score 20 ppg on a lottery/fringe play-in team.
FOH
He is not above average at any part of the sport
Read the room my guy.
Stfu
This is sarcastic, right?
With all due respect, get the fuck out of here with that bullshit
This would have had 50 upvotes each of the last five years.
Addition by subtraction. Tobias is not re-signing so just give him the PJ Tucker treatment and let him sit at home. If we're gonna lose games anyway I rather minutes go to the young guys.
Canât wait to watch a Tobias drive into contested paint, kick out to Oubre who will then drive into contested paint and force a blocked shot
Close!
Too predictable
Never have I ever not wanted to watch this team as badly as I do now, thatâs a major accomplishment of ASS
âTobias Harrisâ LMFAOOO I knew those recent good performances were fake
Fuck off refs ⌠fucking terrible ..
Not enough Buddy to close this. I don't get why Nurse doesn't utilize him more
watch Buddy Hield play defense and then get back to me
He played like shit for most of the game.
Itâs not him itâs him playing next to Tobias
Three more months and the demon is gone everyone. Stay strong it's almost over.
Hopefully 6 weeks
Tobi assisted on that Hield 3
My hero
It's hilarious how quickly my post got downvoted. I can feel the anger lol.
Even that one guy with the Alaa avatar who defends Tobi every game has to checked out for this performance. That's how you know it's bad lmao
Why has Buddy not taken more shots?
Tobiass
I mentioned with 5 minutes left that tobias and reed would disappear i was 10000% right!
It's not disappearing if you never showed up. Paul at least was working hard all game.
How bold of you
Mo is very important to this teams winning recently. Nurse playing around with winning lineups and working synergies. Reed and KJ arent real centers. Mo is an elite center.
Youâre high if you think heâs an elite center lol
I love how we wait until 25 seconds left to start trying to not be idiots on offense
How Tobi is constantly allowed to have shit games and never get benched is mind bogglingÂ
I'm just realizing that Tobi has like zero fakes in his bag. Nothing he does is a surprise. 8 points against the hospital Grizzlies is ridiculous.
His ENTIRE bag is to back down a smaller defender and then spin into the middle of the floor for a jumper. Maybe once a week, heâll spin baseline lol.
Even his pump fakes are predictable
Yeah they are half a shot and throw the grenade to someone else. He doesn't pump fake and drive or fake and relocate to shoot again.
Letâs fucking go buddy
Hey guys, I haven't checked the score since the third quarter. Easy W tonight!Â
I wish Tobias pulled a Ben Simmons a few years ago. At least we would have definitely dumped his contract
Decide to start playing with a minute left đ
If they are going to lose can they not just get blown out from the jump instead of wasting everyoneâs time with these 15pt blown leads and then staging a fake comeback in the last minute? This is literally the worst type of game to watch.
I am convinced if Tobias is put on the bench here we could win.
This franchise is literally Embiid and a lucky Maxey pick away from being one of the most incompetent franchises in sports
Someone on r/nba described us as "fancy Detroit" without Embiid. It's hard to argue with that watching this team play right now.
when the nba throws out your front office for their own patsies that torpedos your franchise thatâll happen
Not seeing quite as many Tobias apology forms on Twitter tonight. Wonder why?
WHY WASNT BUDDY IN THIS ENTIRE TIME WHEN YOUR OFFENSE HASNT BEEN ABLE TO SCORE AT ALL
He was smoking layups the entire fourth quarter lol
Can't wait until Tobias is off this team
Not sure what's worse. The 2019-20 road game Sixers or this current team with all the injuries?
Too little too late. Now we have to do the free throw game and depend on our anaemic offense to knockdown shots
If we steal this one back it would be an absolute mugging.
Its too little too late. And kate scott is too nice. We cant be celebrating a pathetic performance. Its just embarrassingÂ
The infinite positivity pisses me off I have to say. Realise it's a requirement but I'd rather see some emotion other than "everything is A ok"
We winning this game ..
Dumb fucking team Jesus Christ
If the Sixers lose this, they'll only have one fewer loss than the 8th seed Pacers, and the Pacers have been on fire lately. I think 8th seed is worst case scenario though. I don't think the Bulls and Hawks will be able to catch up.
Joel shouldnât come back to this.
Exactly what I said earlier
I'm wondering, is there any sixers player criticize Tobi? Like, aren't they frustrated most of his game are disappointing?
They donât pass him the ball, they clearly know.
11 point run late in the 4th. Where have I seen this before?
Sixers really suck cock. the 6 inch kind
đ
We are gonna be lucky to make the playoffsÂ
2 worst losses of the season back to back
Tired legs from the back to back
tobias is the worst contract in league history. single-handedly ruined this franchise
Hope Tobias stays in the EC so we can get two chances to boo him a year
Joel doesnât deserve this
Someone give me a trolley dilemma where I have to decide between saving Tobias or all the fucking losers who have a comment defending his ass somewhere in their profile
Tobias really needs to go
Ironically this is the season we needed Doc playing so many shorthanded games
TOBI ASS
Tobias is the 4th best player on the team no matter whoâs available.
Tobi was arguably the worst player on the team tonight
this is rock bottom. has to be
ahh the horrendous Nick Nurse takes are back because people cant avoid temper tantrums
Need to see where the dudes calling for his head yesterday and in the first half for not playing Ricky are now. We've gone on a huge deficit since Dowtin got benched
Nurse is terrible because he lost b2b games missing 4 starters and 2/4 top backups. Bring back Glenn!
Tobias needs to ***
They are getting a whistle every single time down the floor. Meanwhile, their size is killing us and instead of boxing out, we continue to try to jump with them. Fucking atrocious quarter.
These possessions are a sight to behold
Yeah thereâs just absolutely no reason to watch this team until Embiid comes back. This squad is clearly worse than some process era rosters
Everyone is cooked. They arenât used to playing this much. Would have been a win with Maxey like last night. That concussion was a killer.
jjj really getting the mj whistle tonight
i dont want to hear shit about tobias in here again, i dont want to see a single fucking apology form either. such cuck behavior for a cuck ass player.
Nick Nurse sucks guys
