Embiid labouring up the court. He only came back into the game. Settles for a jumper rather than attacking. Makes it.

Nurse has a history of running his best guys into the ground.  May not be the best approach with a guy like Embiid long-term. 

Even Maxey I'd be worried about a little bit, shouldering as much burden as he is right now.  His game is reliant on his speed, and huge minutes can slow those legs down.

Spurs look horrific
Missing 2 of their top 6 guys tonight. Tre Jones and Keldon Johnson missing. Tre Jones their only PG and his absence showed. Keldon Johnson as their best wing player and important to matchup against all of OKC's wings.

The Spurs deep bench was asked to step up and play longer minutes. They couldn't do it. Stunk up the joint.

Indy on the verge of pulling it out if they can just make their free throws the rest of the way. Would be big for us - not only for the loss, but giving them a tough fight before our game with them tomorrow. Will be interesting to see if they play Embiid tomorrow.

Man, I bet the fans have been just enraptured watching two teams combine for 64 68 free throws in this Sixers-Pacers game though.  Sounds like a blast.

Yea that was hard to watch. Brutal turnovers and total bricks.

Boy, Dallas' lack of defense is really getting exposed tonight. NOLA might put up 114 after three quarters!

That guy Matt Ryan is throwing up 3s left and right.

As long as he doesn’t pull a Struss on us and kill us in the playoffs, I’m happy for him.

well tbh that would mean we meet them in the finals, i’ll take that

So much hyperbole around the league only 10 games in lol my favorite is Minnesota are contenders with a 22 year old as their best player. I guess they forgot how Gobert gets played off the floor once the playoffs start? My next favorite, the Rockets can make the playoffs.  ::)

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.

Things got pretty chippy early in the Wolves-Warriors game in the 1st quarter.

Jaden Mcdaniels got into it with Klay and tore his jersey. Gobert goes in and tries to headlock McDaniels and then, of course, Draymond come from behind and headlocks Gobert.

McDaniels, Klay, and Draymond all ejected. Draymond with flagrant 2.

Draymond has to be suspended for multiple games, right? Gobert was trying to break up the altercation. There was no reason for Draymond to grab him in a chokehold, drag him several feet, and refuse to let go. That's absurd behavior.

He should, but knowing him and the Warriors, he'll just get 1 game suspension for that.
