Morris has been terrific over the last four minutes or so.

Is it crazy to think that the Bucks are more of a "rival" for us moving forward than the Sixers? I like the Bucks overall fit and playing style much better than the Sixers, who still have so many question marks.

I think the team would consider them more of a rival, but the media will keep beating the "Boston v. Philly" drum no matter how one sided it is

Giannis/Middleton is better at basketball right now than Embiid/Simmons, I'd say.

Giannis is the best player on either team.

Agreed. And Middleton might be the worst player of the 4 but he's the best complimentary player.

And it isn't close, either

Nope, not even a little....

Marcus Smart shooting 17 % from three this year.

Can it get any worse?
yes: https://youtu.be/yyCTd62xmzE

The sad part is Marcus is worse, his shot just looks better form wise, but man they both are horrific. I laugh the moment when Markell shoots his shot, with Marcus I laugh after he misses it.

OH MY GOODNESS... This offense is crazy. These are good shots, too!
Our league leading open shot numbers are starting to fall, and now we look unstoppable

What was Giannis even trying to do there?
I'm bitter.

Baynes does not need to get 3 happy - in addition to the fact that he is shaky from there, it takes him away from offensive rebounding.

If he plays like last playoffs, he's better than Simmons

The madman called a timeout when we're up by 100 with 2 seconds left? Lol

Probably my only complaint offensively, besides JT being cold

I'd like to see that move by Giannis again.  Covered a lot of ground.

I'm a little worried about what Smart is planning to do with his hair.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.
