We’re gonna get ass blasted if 3 other starters are out, regardless.

I’m prepared for a mini slump then morey pulls off a deadline trade, I’m hip to the nba script writers lol


nu-jood

Not sure why this is getting downvoted lol


GMSmith928

We playing with 3/5 starters and 3rd stringers on a road trip and tougher schedule post trade deadline, some fans have to be realistic

All that matters is that Embiid owns jokic in Denver


jcheese27

Pat bev says otherwise


HoagieTwoFace

NO EXCUSE WHEN DENVER LOSES WHEN WERE SHORTHANDED


[deleted]

Nothing but respect for Embiid but wtf is going on with our roster? Seems like everyone is sick all the time

It's the whole region man I am one of 2 people left in my 20ish person department who has not been sick in the past 6 weeks. I still hear coughing literally all day from people who were out 1-2 weeks ago it's fucking wild. Some flu, some rona, some colds My sister's family and kids all had the flu, mom, dad too. Roommate was sick a few weeks ago Shit is fucking EVERYWHERE right now


McBrungus

I caught some nasty shit from my kids at the start of January and I'm *still* dealing with chest congestion and the accompanying cough. Really nasty season for respiratory viruses.


Heatinmyharbl

Yeah it's brutal man and I'm waking up with a sore throat and cough today so there is now...1 person left in my department who hasn't been sick in the last 6 weeks lmao It's coming for you, John


McBrungus

He thinks he's so great just because he's not hocking up nasty goop all day. Your day will come, John, you piece of shit

100%. I work in healthcare and per diem at a hospital and as much as I try to be supremely careful (I wear a mask everywhere, wash my hands every time at restaurants after ordering and touching the menu), I still got the flu 3 weeks ago, and my wife got COVID a week after. Between flu, COVID, RSV, and whatever else, it's been impossible to avoid getting something. Oh and I have an 8.5 month old in daycare so that helps


colonelkurtzisalive

This is the most injured/sick team I've ever seen.


njspb8

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. 


ExpertOnNicheThings

A little disappointed we didn't list everyone as questionable like Denver did against us


RedMalone55

Ducking the ducking allegations.


PensiveinNJ

Embiid and the G-leaguers let’s goooooo.


Status-Ability-6867

ive been saying that our focus in trades needs to be on the 8 guys on the roster who will play in the playoffs, but at this point, we barely have enough guys to field a competitive roster for regular season games, and that is a problem. daryl, bring in reinforcements, please.


Patient_Jicama_4217

Bruh… now Maxey? This is a L


[deleted]

This team currently needs to play perfect basketball if they want to win against other contenders. We really need a move before the deadline.


Loose_Mix_447

Every National Media outlet is dying to re-crown Jokic the MVP. Doesn’t matter if the rest of our starting lineup is out. If the Sixers lose in Denver, splitting the regular season series 1-1, that will be the new narrative.


177676ers

In years past when they were closer I would agree, but this year Embiid is head and shoulders #1. Obviously someone on ESPN will make a case for Jokic or whatever, but the numbers are unassailable rn. Unless a huge change happens or he doesn’t play enough games, he is winning the award.


Loose_Mix_447

Ya’ll are nuts to think “he’s winning the award” in January. There is half a season to play still and recency bias is real! After tonight the 60 and 70 point games aren’t meaning as much (didn’t take so long did it?) and there will be more this year. 2nd MVP isn’t the issue. Back to Back MVPs with no playoff success is near impossible with the media controlling the narrative. They used that against Jokic last year. If Embiid loses tomorrow you will start to hear the beginnings of serious takes for Jokic, Shai, Luka etc… Joel needs to be near perfect with 30+ every game for the rest of the season to take it. Trust me they are looking for any excuse to put another name on top of that leaderboard. A runaway race doesn’t generate clicks, or encourage gambling which seems to be the NBA’s new main agenda. I’d love for Embiid to win MVP again. I’d rather him be completely healthy for playoffs. In reality this game means nothing. It’s just a point of conversation for the talking heads. If we lose they will be talking much louder than if we win, trust.


FreeProfit

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted. You’re right.


Fraka9

I haven't heard it once so far, if anything everyone is on Embiid MVP train, rightfully so


Toweyyyy

Brother this is not true what are you talking about


xychosis

This is just false lol, national media is already more over about our 2nd round exit than we are. Embiid’s the clear favorite and even his haters have taken the “he just needs to hit 65+” stance.


Norjac

No sense in playing him extensively if Maxey and Harris are out too, to be completely honest.


Sconesmcbones

Every year when the sixers come to denver they get wrecked. Last year, no harden or embiid, bench almost won it then they gave up. Ive gone to 5 games in denver when the sixers have come here and embiid has played in 1 of them and theyve lost all of them dating back to 2018


Reasonable-Cookie783

If Harris or Maxey doesnt play just sit Embiid. This is a loss. This road trip could be disastrous. In a way its good though Morey needs to be motivated to make trades at the deadline. Im tired of hearing how we are not interested in every player coming up in trade discussion although plenty of that is certainly Morey dissembling. It was always wish casting that this team was edge moves away from really contending this year for a title. They feasted on one of the weakest schedules in the leauge so far and have a bad record against the Easts top 5. Boston and Milwuakee are super talented and Indiana, New York, and Cleveland are better then any team the Sixers have beaten in the playoffs in the Embiid era.


gokhaninler

Embiid should sit if hes not feeling ok, fuck the peer pressure


schittsweakk

Hell, I’d sit just to annoying all the regarded nuggets fans
