After beating the Bucks convincingly, the Sixers have now lost 3 straight to the Magic, Heat and Pacers 

Similar to the last few years, the biggest weakness on the Sixers is their lack of depth, and it shows. They truly miss the shooting from Butler/Reddick types. And when Embiid doesn't play, that team sinks.

And the Celtics still couldn't beat them in both occasions. If that becomes our playoff matchup, the C's better step it up.

What?

Yet ANOTHER one of our hated rivals has arrived on the radar of my favorite Sesame Street character?



The Lakers broke mines (and Count Van Count's) heart by breaking their 4 game losing streak. But I see that PHI is keeping my childhood brother company.

And with PHI's game AT HOU on Friday my brother from another mother could very well be back here AGAIN.

Trust the process.

Embid seemed to take a shot at Simmons today with the press: https://twitter.com/KyleNeubeck/status/1212815986027573249

But yet the so-called "Unicorn" will probably snag an All-Star spot and rob either JB or JT...........

Really no excuse for him to NOT have a 3 point shot....no excuse.

Dude is already a top 20 player IMO...excels in ALL other areas of his game except THIS area.................

Can anyone here imagine Magic or Larry not wanting to shoot from deep? Either of them waiting until their 3rd or 4th year to develop a 3 point shot?

How about LeBron?

Dude gets a pass because he's 6'10".....analysts roasted Rajon because of his lack of a 3.........................

I don't think he is going to make the all-star team this year. His numbers are down in points and rebounds and his turnovers are only continuing to be a problem. He is playing good defense and leads the league in steals, but his team is currently 6th in the east and if they did get a second all-star I think Harris would probably be more deserving.

We wouldve won the last game if Tatum or Brown had a decent game

What's going to happen is that Simmons will wait until right around the final votes...pull a triple double out of his rear against some lottery team...then the unicorn worship will start once again.



And "IF" he hits a THREE in that game the power will go out at ESPN.

I can only imagine Harden told Morey to get CP3 out, because, as someone who likes Westbrook, I'm not sure Russ has been better beyond just counting numbers.

Yes, the C's barely pulled this out but Miami with a bad loss to Magic and Sixers looking like they may go down to Houston.

The Lakers broke mines (and Count Van Count's) heart by breaking their 4 game losing streak. But I see that PHI is keeping my childhood brother company.

And with PHI's game AT HOU on Friday my brother from another mother could very well be back here AGAIN.

Trust the process.

"Ah ha ha ha..........."

My Man Joel Embiid and Hot Shot Simmons are at it AGAIN - keeping my childhood brother from another mother happy with his numerics:



Will it get to 5 losses in a row??

With the Rising Oklahoma City Thunder (and quality Big Man Steve Adams) rolling into PHI on Monday there is a GREAT chance that my man Count Van Count WILL be active once again.

According to reports, the Lakers are now "listening" to trades involving Kuzma.

Might mean nothing. Or it might mean Lebron's ready for trading season   :laugh:
