Indy missing Myles Turner. Their paint defence (already allowed most paint PPG in the league) is suffering

Anyone amazed at how Enes Kanter played all 72 games this season as his PPG and RPG went up dramatically compared to last year's.

See what happens when you have a coach who knows what they're doing with their big/player

Enes has always been capable of putting up flashy numbers on the offensive end. The problem with him has always been and continues to be his defense. He has no lateral quickness so he gets killed in the pick & roll and he cannot defend on the perimeter. Stevens runs a switch heavy defensive scheme, so Enes was never going to get a ton of minutes here. You can hide him a bit but he's not the type of player the dictates changing your scheme to accommodate. Not that hard to understand.

Do you think the Sixers care who wins, Wiz or Indy?

Fair amount of heavy breathing too.

Rough.

Poor Marv.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

I doubt it. The 76ers have lots of length which will make life for Westbrook miserable, and Gafford will have no answers for Embiid, not to mention Washington's weak perimeter defence will be stretched by Curry, Green, Harris and Korkmaz.

The Wizards beating up an injury-crippled Pacers team is not surprising.

I'm not sold on the Sixers but the talent gap is pretty big. If Beal was healthy....

All home teams have won so far.  Hopefully that sends the message that the play-in is stupid and a giant waste of time and they eliminate it.

Wings - Dantley, Bowen, J. Jackson

The Play-In has potential but seeeessssh has the games (aside from the Warriors-Lakers) has been bad.
