Why isn't Muscala playing?

Good question.

Seee sig below.

I love Tatum but he’s gonna be dead out of gas by the playoffs. He looks so average right now.

He'll bring it the second.

[slamtheking]

Tatum has been playing like crap for several games.  it's like he just doesn't care what he does out there. 

Al getting toasted on D by Embiid and GWill hasn't provided much (for months). 

not feeling good about this one.  Joe should be screaming at all of them in the locker room right now

That's a leap.

[jpotter33]

Embiid with more free throw attempts than our entire team.  And it's not the volume of our 3 point shooting - we've only shot 1 more 3 than the Sixers.  Wish I could say I'm surprised but I'm not.

Be prepared for this if Boston meets the sixers in the playoffs. Embiid will shoot 15 plus free throws a game

Eh, they tighten up the whistle in the playoffs, and he doesn't seem to get the same kinds of calls. That's part of the reason many think Embiid is not as dominant in the playoffs.

Maybe. His bad games are REALLY bad.

He scored 38 two games ago

Tatum was awful that 1st half.

I think we need to see Brogdon and White playing more the 2nd half. The offense just seemed to flow better with those two in the game as opposed to seeing guys just dribbling into guys or throwing the ball away as a result. The last 6 mins of the 2nd quarter, the offense looked like it had no clue what to do with the ball

RUN RUN RUN! Embiid can't run all game.

+1  Just keep attacking in transition.  Embiid will get tired like everygame
less effective in the 4th if we push the pace.

[jpotter33]

Joe needs to start the half with a set play to get Tatum a good look. Can't be having him continue to not contribute offensively.

EDIT: And that certainly didn't happen with Smart jacking up a three.

[Phantom255x]

And already a bad start to the 3rd... 

[Silas]

Smart needs to stop shooting 3s.

[SCeltic34]

Another slow start out of the 3rd. 

[Indocelts]

Take JT out. His head is clearly not in this game.
