Sixers (14-30) at Celtics (15-32) Game #48 1/29/14

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

Sully missed 16 shots tonight (made 9), not one complaint. ab woulda done that it would be talked about all thread.


Green will forever be a #3 and I wanna punch him.


Bass should have sat most of the night b.c he was hurting us.

more cj, ty.

Green u bum!

No more Sully and Bass duo, thanks.

Bayless, where was the defense...

so sully is the new volume shooter? 

at least it was at a better rate than Green 

and sully gets double doubles, AB and green DO NOT! BOOM!

And Sully is a big, he should. Still has nothing to do with missing 16 shots! BOOM!

Green, well ugh!

the kid has a dislocated finger on his shooting hand....

and still got a double double. BOOM!

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

Is bass hurt? I dont think he played hard.

WHAT?? Bass was a beast on D!

These are the games you have to get an L if your tanking…its alright to beat a Miami or OKC but the bottom dwellers need to score W's against you.  Our percentage for 1st went from 11% to 15%.  I don't care if we get 1 or 2, but it sounds like top 3 is a must.

1. Embid
2. Parker

Love the Harris kid from Mich St if we some how go on a streak…could be a big upgrade over AB.

right now Chris Johnson is an upgrade over AB   

You people love to hate on AB...

nope -- just calling it as I see it this year.  AB's D isn't what is was in past years and Johnson shows a much better all-around game on offense while playing respectable D

I cannot argue with that assessment.

AB is a better scorer though. Johnson seems to be limited to 3's and garbage buckets.

That being said AB's scoring isn't necessarily something you want...haha

[SHAQATTACK]

Need to rest Sully ......like a full week.,  let his hand heal.......

I must Cheer he Magic on to greater heights

[Fafnir]

Only 6 of Sullinger's shots were outside the paint. Not going to hate on him for trying to get to the basket like that.

How many of those shots were tip ins or follows after an offensive board also, probably quite a few.

[SHAQATTACK]

AB and Bass.  For Asik.

The difference between me and you is that I'm not hating on Sully, he's my second fav player... doesn't mean missin 16 shots should be excused when someone else misses 10 shots its the end of the world... same result a loss.

Now as for Sully's hand, I would still rather see him out there than Bass. Hurt hand, foot, arm, neck and everything else! Why was CBS forcing Bass I will never know. Kelly was playing well tonight. We were rolling up like 8 with Sully and KO, CBS pulled Sully for Bass and the rest is history.

Agreed wholeheartedly. AB has become a chucker, I think the stress of a looming contract has changed him.

very tempting and asik will give us a rim protector right?

If you rest sully, and uncle snooze does not get hot we just might be on a losing streak for awhile.

I cannot argue with that assessment.

Let's see, Bradley next season at 7 million, or Johnson at the league minimum? I'll take Johnson.

Yeah I didn't find him to be taking bad shots really.

I don't mind Sullinger trying to take more shots.  Someone on the team needs to.  I think that a lot of people don't get that someone has to put a shot up.

Avery was taking a lot of shots recently (and doing well actually), Green sometimes goes off, but Sully has to take shots as well.  He has the tools to become a scorer.

Our team is developing.  I don't mind Sullinger trying to force the issue.  I even heard Stevens talk about how he met with Sullinger and basically asked him to take a role 2 years or so ahead of what he should be doing.  To try to take that kind of leadership role and on the floor role.

Our team won't be good anyways.  Lets not get down on our young players.

That said, Sully does play beat up, which I respect, but wouldn't mind seeing him heal up.  Not sure what injuries had to do with anything, just saying we've heard about it and seen some play that looked bothered by his hand.
