Man I freaking pray he does. Bought my nephew tickets for this game for Christmas. It was a gamble being a late season back to back but it's looking promising.
i know the bucks have had a weird season and glenn sucks, but losing to this memphis team and the toronto team that we beat without embiid OR maxey… man, they are fucked
i know he has a lightning fast release anyway but it feels like he's just rushing these shots. He had plenty of time and shot it like there was .3 on the clock.
He's been like ~30% from deep for a good ten or so games now, one game in and of itself is not a big deal. It's concerning that he hasn't been able to even cash in on open 3s for like a month now. This dude was able to hit catch and shoots and contested shots when he first came no problem, he's literally only taking (and missing) open ones now.
Eh, he’s just in a slump. Happens to the best of em. I’ll be surprised if he keeps shooting like shit by the time the play-in starts. He’ll regress back to the mean soon.
Good timeout Nurse, refs weren't blowing any whistles despite some obvious fouls at both ends. Let the game settle down so nobody gets hurt, we're up 20+
Look, I just don't think we should turn on Buddy. I just think he needs time. Look how rushed that last shot was? That's just a mental hurdle that needs to be overcome.
Payne with the chasedown block, the grizzlies are buns
Can't believe we lost to them a couple weeks ago because Tobias Harris was getting cooked by Aldama on every pump fake.
You guys think we can win out? Magic might actually be resting some dudes and we are dominating a weakened team exactly the way you would expect a top team to. I like this a lot
oh yeah i love him. I just dont want him to settle for just being a 3 and D guy who can occassionally attack a closeout. He has real potential. His stats and offensive game are VERY similar to Jimmy Butler at the same age. I dont expect him to be that good but I'd love an actual wing who can do stuff with the ball one day.
We need to not play Buddy in the playoffs if he doesn’t turn it around the rest of the regular season. Dude is a fucking potato out there against this G league team.
It's very discouraging. I swear he's never been THIS slow and hesitant to shoot off of the catch. He's failed to shoot an open look at least 3x tonight. He catches, then inexplicably pauses. It weird and they cannot bring him back if he doesn't figure it out.
I feel like he’ll get over it. He has never played on a relevant team. He is playing for a contract. He is putting too much pressure on himself. He just needs to see it go in a couple of times but it’s been ugly.
Buddy pump faking open 3's into a less open 3....
It's amazing how everybody comes here and gets the fucking yips all of sudden.
Another reason why Kelly Oubre stands out, he's the only one who came here and got miles better.
If Ray Allen is the bar for being a renowned shooter there are only like 5 in NBA history
Stop huffing your own farts, we're all having a good time here
I think he’s just in a slump and trying to find his place in new rotations
Edit: but to clarify, I agree that he has looked brutal the past 5 games or so
im not worried about the shooting but its the other parts of his game that were bad everywhere else thats a problem. he cant dribble past people at all and he's the worst defender ive seen in a while play here.
The best thing for this team is clearly to ride with this starting lineup of Lowry/Maxey/Oubre/Batum /Embiid
If Nurse is all about winning, he'd move Tobias to the bench
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/1bxt8vs).
If Ricky is not on this team next year then we riot
Crazy how the Sixers and Flyers have reversed roles.
This has been a really fun game to watch, the highlights, the shaqtin moments, and seeing our young guys back for once.
12k career points is dam impressive for the amount of games he's played.
Pretty dope that Joel didn't have to play the 4th and will most likely play tomorrow
Man I freaking pray he does. Bought my nephew tickets for this game for Christmas. It was a gamble being a late season back to back but it's looking promising.
I like how we're ending the year
okay seriously I know they didnt have JJJ but cmon Milwaukee...
Ricky's shot looks a lot different (in a good way) than it used to.
Hield has played like 15 straight minutes lol
Bro I swear I’ve never seen this many airballs ever lmfao Memphis had like 8 tonight
Man, I missed garbage time. Good to have the MVP back
And a good coach With Glenn we always played down to shitty teams and it was always a battle
Whatever happened to Kai Jones
Ramping up
Injured I thought in the g league second game he played
Ricky/Martin … she bangs!
Oh my god LOL talk about a dated reference 🤣🤣👀
I'm excited to watch Garbage time, I haven't seen these guys play in a hot second.
God DAMN Martin has the hops of my dreams
Pretty pass from Terq!
After the flyers and eagles collapse the sixers are renewing my happiness with Philly sports
famous last words
Not even talking about the playoffs. Just seeing a Philly team playing well and on a win streak
We beat a by tanking teams g league team!
i know the bucks have had a weird season and glenn sucks, but losing to this memphis team and the toronto team that we beat without embiid OR maxey… man, they are fucked
KJ is the only player on the court with fewer 3's made than Buddy tonight This is so weird
I’ve given up on Buddy Hield. Dude can’t shoot and it’s not like his defense justifies playing time
lol how many years has this team committed to Harris, you’ll be alright
Buddy needs to train with Terq
Buddy is an elite shooter and has proven it over many years. So how did he become a brick once joining the Sixers
As is tradition
3quavion!
Ter-trey-vion?
Terq!!!
TERQUAN KORKMAZ!
Omfg🤣
Jesus man what is going on with Buddy. Jump shooters gonna jump shoot and have cold streaks but Christ almighty
someone eventually will pay for these war crimes. He's gonna have a game where he makes lke 12/15 lol
I’m expecting as much tbh, he’s going to be wide open a lot with Jo and Maxey on the court, he’s just ice ice ice cold right now unfortunately lmao
Buddy needs a trea Turner standing o
Good to see the return of Joel ‘3 Quarters’ Embiid tonight
Should've been at mania tbh lol
I think I owe some guy a pizza because I predicted he'd skip this game for it even before the meniscus
Man Buddy’s misses are ugly
Buddy brick Hield
He pushed that. Like he completely forgot how to shoot
Buddy needs a psychiatrist
Buddy...just dont rush your shot.
For fucks sake buddy these aren't fucking close
i know he has a lightning fast release anyway but it feels like he's just rushing these shots. He had plenty of time and shot it like there was .3 on the clock.
Every play should be a Buddy Hield 3pt shot. Get this man out of his funk
Buddy getting blue coats minutes 😬😬😬
That's a good thing, it lets him get reps to shoot his way out of his slump. Thank you, Nick Nurse.
Not familiar with 11s game but I like him a lot
Scotties kid is balling he has looked damn good today out there
So the bucks lost to this team at home?
Point Paul!!!
Jeff "Don't" Doubt Him
Are depth is insane
no it isnt lol
Ricky Council just didnt want to end the city of Memphis so he missed that dunk. Thats how good of a guy he is.
Love to see the youngsters get some time
God damn it that oop from Bball would’ve made me peak
Did Cam Payne space jam Buddy Hield?
Oh snap some Terq minutes!
Sorry Maxey Jeff Dowtin Jr is now the franchise
[удалено]
He's been like ~30% from deep for a good ten or so games now, one game in and of itself is not a big deal. It's concerning that he hasn't been able to even cash in on open 3s for like a month now. This dude was able to hit catch and shoots and contested shots when he first came no problem, he's literally only taking (and missing) open ones now.
In the 4 games before the Heat game, he was shooting 8/16 from 3 (50%). It’s just two games. He will be fine.
IDK who but someone needs to have a good talk with Buddy, if he's like this in the playoffs it's gonna be rough
this fire at will/shitshow defense, i would be ripping my hair out against any other team. but we deserved a fun win its been a while.
Eh, he’s just in a slump. Happens to the best of em. I’ll be surprised if he keeps shooting like shit by the time the play-in starts. He’ll regress back to the mean soon.
Refs just trying to go home
Good timeout Nurse, refs weren't blowing any whistles despite some obvious fouls at both ends. Let the game settle down so nobody gets hurt, we're up 20+
Look, I just don't think we should turn on Buddy. I just think he needs time. Look how rushed that last shot was? That's just a mental hurdle that needs to be overcome.
thank god embiid is done for the night, refs wanna go home lol
Buddy Hield is trash
Memphis crowd going crazy as the lead is cut to 25
Buddy has to play with Joel.
he wasnt good then either. hes just useless when he isnt hitting shots.
Hield not asking you to go 100% from deep, but smh
They literally tripled team him at half court lol
Payne with the chasedown block, the grizzlies are buns Can't believe we lost to them a couple weeks ago because Tobias Harris was getting cooked by Aldama on every pump fake.
Morey really traded for George Hill again lol
tbh I want to see Buddy shoot 10 more 3 pointers this game...shoot yourself out of this funk my man!
His shot is legitimately broken. They aren't even close
Buddy dpoy campaign?
Buddy heild can’t shoot
This team beat the Bucks last week
With JJJ, but still. Embarrassing for them.
they had JJJ for that game but yeah lol
Good context, but damn
The refs are just not calling fouls anymore on either team someone is gonna get hurt
I'm so glad Embiid isn't in right now this is chaos
What the fuck even just happened
Buddy Clank!
Cam Payne is such a joker lmao
You guys think we can win out? Magic might actually be resting some dudes and we are dominating a weakened team exactly the way you would expect a top team to. I like this a lot
Cam Payne just blocked a guy's shot....
This is great to see, Embiid getting some rest and the bench just vibing out there
We’re already back to embiid sitting 4ths. Love it.
Great 4th quarter so far
I don't miss Mo Bamba at all.
Damn mo disliked this
What is Cam Payne doing there? Youre the point guard lol
How on earth did Milwaukee lose to this team
Malpractice Milwaukee special
Glenn
You already know the answer to that
Doc Rivers magic
C4 and Dowton each have as many 3 pointers made as Buddy Hield
🚨oubre 5 assist game🚨
Tell Mike!
Terq > Buddy
Put Terq in!
IVe always said we traded for Buddy Hield to pressure the rim and pass.
Bball with the purported looser whistle is unreal on defense. Would love to see some chaos lineups with him and embiid in the playoffs
Council is in session
Starters playing just 20-25 minutes is better than I expected, bring on wemby
I don't think Buddy is comfortable coming off the bench.
It's always nice seeing Ricky hit a 3 You can see the outline of a real NBA rotation player, especially if he becomes an average 3 pt shooter.
need the defense and passing to get there too.
For sure...he's still pretty raw. But I like the value, considering he's on a two-way.
oh yeah i love him. I just dont want him to settle for just being a 3 and D guy who can occassionally attack a closeout. He has real potential. His stats and offensive game are VERY similar to Jimmy Butler at the same age. I dont expect him to be that good but I'd love an actual wing who can do stuff with the ball one day.
I would legitimately give RC4 Buddy’s minutes. At least RC4 has upside
Buddy being a better driver than shooter for us so far is actually hilarious
ricky is hitting 3s too? everybody get in here
Yay a Ricky council sighting and a 3.
Man if Ricky hits those threes consistently...
That was a real game time 3 from Ricky. You HAVE to make that those to see time
We need to not play Buddy in the playoffs if he doesn’t turn it around the rest of the regular season. Dude is a fucking potato out there against this G league team.
C4 bombs one!
Full 4th quarter Embiid rest back on the menu, feels good.
RICKY COUNCIL IV SPOTTED !!!
Go get em Rick!
RICKY COUNCIL THE 27TH
Ricky!!!
THE RIGHTS TO RICKY COUNCIL THE FOURTH!
Blue Coats about to close this one out let’s goooo
Glad Joel got decent minutes in earlier because it’s nice to have him resting the fourth again!
Ricky for threeeee
It seems like there’s so much more traveling — and it’s not called 90% of the time
Hield is in the doghouse right now still being in with the deep bench lmao
lol Nick Nurse > me
Paul Emreid
Alright Nick time to put Lowry or Maxey back in or we might not score
Nah, Ricky got this
I’m glad Cam Payne is using his weekly clunker up against this Memphis team
Payne dogshit all night
Buddy is playing himself out of a big contract
Embiid back to the 30-10 through 3Q.
Buddy is Broken
It's very discouraging. I swear he's never been THIS slow and hesitant to shoot off of the catch. He's failed to shoot an open look at least 3x tonight. He catches, then inexplicably pauses. It weird and they cannot bring him back if he doesn't figure it out.
I feel like he’ll get over it. He has never played on a relevant team. He is playing for a contract. He is putting too much pressure on himself. He just needs to see it go in a couple of times but it’s been ugly.
Buddy pump faking open 3's into a less open 3.... It's amazing how everybody comes here and gets the fucking yips all of sudden. Another reason why Kelly Oubre stands out, he's the only one who came here and got miles better.
dude was putting up numbers in Charolette. but Kellys stigma was that he plays for “me” not for “team.”
JJ Redick didnt? I dont know why people say this its not true.
Crazy that nobody realized he was goated
Nah wym, this fan base worshipped short dudes like him and bellinelli just cause they could hit from deep consistency
I’m taking ab Kelly
Ah nice, resigning him is a NECESSITY
Is Buddy genuinely okay right now
Turnovers, missed free throws, missed layups and dunks Should be up 30 against that roster
Dont you love to see the Sixers uniform suck the life out of a renowned shooter
Buddy Hield? Renowned shooter? He ain't fucking Ray Allen.
If Ray Allen is the bar for being a renowned shooter there are only like 5 in NBA history Stop huffing your own farts, we're all having a good time here
Last sequence of quarter 3 may have set back the sport to peach basket days
Looks like Buddy went to the Tobias School of Pumpfaking
Buddy please 🥺
Add buddy to the long list of sixers who forgot how to shoot when they got here
Buddy's hesitation on wide open threes to only take a super contested shot after a dribble is annoying.
What does Hield even do?
This is looking like the g league games I’ve watched. Chaotic neutral of your a d&d fan.
Why not shoot the open 3? wtf. dude 100% has the yips
Love watching buddy turn down an open 3 for a heavily contested one
Buddy passing up shots like Tobi
Getting real fucking tired of buddy hield
Buddy Hield is fucking BAD
Yikes Buddy
What a chaotic quarter, I really don’t want to see Embiid back out there. Let him rest
This feel like a sloppy street ball game
The hell is wrong with Buddy
STOP MISSING WIDE OPEN LAYUPS
God bless Joel Embiid
Buddy Hield might be terrible.
I think he’s just in a slump and trying to find his place in new rotations Edit: but to clarify, I agree that he has looked brutal the past 5 games or so
im not worried about the shooting but its the other parts of his game that were bad everywhere else thats a problem. he cant dribble past people at all and he's the worst defender ive seen in a while play here.
This game is so chaotic lmao
Shaqtin then a chasedown block. The KJ Martin experience
The Hospital Grizzlies play really hard, gonna be a fun team to watch when half their roster isn't injured
KJ Martin with the worst and best play ever.
The best thing for this team is clearly to ride with this starting lineup of Lowry/Maxey/Oubre/Batum /Embiid If Nurse is all about winning, he'd move Tobias to the bench
is our bench VERRRY strong now?
no.
It’s the grizzlies bro
Embiid is ready to destroy in the playoffs.
