Who cares about the travel the game is over. We had many opportunities to win the game. Now we have to make a statement in game 6

Must win game IMO. We must break their will in the first half and not let up in the second.

Precious helped win G4 and Thibs basically looked at him during G5 and said "nah I dont trust he could contribute to our trying to win this game" that's just mind blowing to me

Rant aside I think we can absolutely close them out here in G6. Can Maxey and this time Embiid go off again? Yes, but I think we somehow focus better on the road vs at home, our execution is better, our attention to detail is better. I think Precious can really help lock down the Sixers, but if he doesn't play, as long as we avoid foul trouble, and don't commit silly/ unforced turnovers, we should pull this one out. I picked us in 6 or 7, hoping it's not 7, although it's back in MSG.

What's being lost in this whole conversation is that both the Knicks/6ers series, and the Bucks/Pacers series sit at 3-2. We should be sitting and waiting for that dogfight to play out in that other series. While we are playing a gimpy Embiid team filled with shiddy role players and we are playing a 7 man rotation with guys playing 40+ minutes, the Bucks could win tomorrow and both Dame and Giannis have been rested. If we manage to emerge victorious (hopefullly in 6, NOT 7), we are going to have to play a team of Middleton (BALLIN!!!), Lopez (Tough big to cover), Beverly (Fukkin PEST!!!), Portis off the bench....and a rested pair of Dame and Giannis.....with this dog tired team. We don't do ourselves any favors. We continuously get down early, we muster up scrappy late runs, but we are out talented, unrested AND without a cavalry to spell the wounded. Let's hope we only lost a toe when we shot ourselves in the foot.
Those last 70 seconds, Randle in a nut shell.

Awful 2 for 1 3PT attempt when we are up 2
Doesn’t close out on Sabonis --> open 3
Takes another side step off balance 3

We got sucked into the Randle vortex where all good feelings go to die.

This is the only lineup used in all 5 games so far

Not many coaches are going to bench their starting 2-guard in the playoffs. Especially someone who has been vocal about Thibs. +uld even consider giving Divo some of Hart's minutes and give more minutes to Deuce.


But isn't this just like when Grimes=DDV and DDV was the old Deuce? Same dynamic where the bench 2G provides the energy scoring. :dontknow: :dontknow: :dontknow: Which makes me wonder if it isn't more about something off with the coaching/schemes?

Sixers start fast everytime. Maybe time to start Deuce? Shoots better anyway. Still can't believe we lost. Was there in person and the emotions still haunt me.

Get my boy Hart some rest Thibs. There is no reason to play this man the entire game when you got Precious on the bench and to a lesser degree Burks. He should be able to at least get 5 minutes of rest between those two.

I hope I am dead wrong but I'm going into this game assuming and expecting there will be a Game 7. The zebras tonight are going to be brutal!
