Woah, what a move by Rozier!

Our defense has been pretty terrible. Lots of miscommunication, which is expected at this point.

Sixers making it look worse than it is by shooting 9/16 from 3.
My biases, in order of fervor:
Pro:
Smart, Brown, Hayward, Tatum, Kemba, Grant Williams, Sleepy Williams, Edwards!

Anti:
Kanter, Semi, Theis, Poierier

Tatum is going to get a lot of wide open looks if he plays much with GH and KI and the starters

Well that assumes that he actually gets to take shots with those two on the floor.

let me go out on a limb....he will.

I'm just saying that this team is no longer 1 star and a bunch of shooters. You gotta feed the stars. But ya, Tatum should get some open looks, just don't think his numbers will be huge given his role.

Smart-Hayward-Morris-Horford-Baynes could be our best defensive lineup.

They aren't getting layups. Just hitting a bunch of junk shots.

How the hell is that a blocking foul on Smart?? He was there like two seconds before Anderson!

Brown quietly having a pretty good 1/2.

True, but a lot of it is due to miscommunication on switches and poor rotations on the perimeter. Brown and Kyrie in particular have both had several cases of miscommunication.

Yep, I think he'll fit well with the starters if that the direction Brad goes. Space the floor, drive if he gets matched on a big, post up if he gets put on a small. Play defense. Doesn't have the skills yet to be THE GUY, but I think he can be a glue guy right now.

sixers 9-17 from 3.  They look very talented to me. With Simmons,  Embiid and Fultz Sixers will eventually be a force. Will make some noise this year I think.

They do seem to have more shooters now. Bayless, Covington, Reddick not t mention Embiid and Fultz when healthy.

They are talented but young. That will ultimately keep them out of the playoffs this year IMO.
