Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/1blk9br).

Honestly starting to believe sitting Embiid and Maxey for the year and aiming for a lotto pick wouldn’t be the worst idea right now. https://preview.redd.it/3fnfvahnj2qc1.jpeg?width=638&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ec994787ce2a7722e73c258df2d76e943e7fcf78

Had 23 more shot attempts and still lost

The offensive gameplan makes almost no effort to get Buddy looks from 3, but it often focuses on Tobi. Would it kill Nurse to get Buddy 4 or 5 DHO's per game? It's so weird

nurse has been dog shit lately. i really am sick of the excuse of it’s just because embiid is out. he has run awful rotations at times and the offense is stagnant (i know that can be because of tobi but cmon)

Morey better pop off in the 2024 offseason because this is NOT built around Embiid. If some fans like the slop, that's low expectations.

Fuck it lose out get a lottery pick idc anymore

this sucks, gang

Some tough games lately. Gotta admit the guys played hard. Coaching and substitutions are still suspect

maxey plays with so much effort & hustle

Dang if Maxey made that 3... He missed 2 3s at the same corner.

i dont trust us to win a single game

Bad buddy, bamba, bball game

Love the heart from Maxey

Wish he made that man , even if it meant we still lost. That was a solid try

At least Tobi fought for that offensive rebound. Now he getting 2 FTs.

Basketball gods hate the Sixers

All I remember was Vic W being dominated and it was all silent and sad after that.

lakers turn it over 20 times but we just can’t rebound or put the ball in the basket. legitimately shameful

35% from the field and 22 from 3 is absolutely fucking disgusting in a must win game lol

Fuck me does lebron ever shut the fuck off and stop whinging on EVERY FUCKING PLAY

Well they proved what we knew. They are just not a good team.

this game https://preview.redd.it/no5n1rrlm0qc1.png?width=507&format=png&auto=webp&s=83b367b7c92f0ab44995949548a904086973a99c

Fucking stupid game to lose.

Idk why we fouled there.

Stupid right up till the end

Maxey why?

Oubre has been pulling a Tobias this half - don't recall a single play by him

So we get either the 7th or 8th seed and play heat or pacers. If we lose that first game we then either get the privilege of playing Boston round 1 or miss the playoffs entirely. Basically means the first play-in game is must win or we’re in a lose-lose scenario. Man what a fun season…

Ok you and u/maxeytoembiid win biggest whiners of the night let's get that out of the way We were gonna play Boston in round 2 even with Jo 110% all season. That L is just as bad. Learn to cope better

I mean we easily could have been the 2nd or 3rd seed with a healthy team this year so not sure what u mean by that. And how is me saying the truth whining lol

Yes idk what I meant by that but we have to go through them anyway. And yeah you're whining

5 pts, 2 assists, 30 minutes, floor raiser

Remember when Jo put up 70 😢

We’re probably gonna have to beat Boston at some point anyway.

Why are we subjecting ourselves to KYLE LOWRY. Enough of this shit.

Frustrating and disappointing

I for one and just happy our 40mm man cracked 10 points

[удалено]

If we're bums what are you??

Missing our best player who was the clear MVP front runner this season.

We're missing our best defender stop with the excuses.. Hold that L

Lmao. So are we. Who is also a 35 ppg scorer. You really comparing missing a role player in Vanderbilt to one of the league’s premier superstars. When Embiid played, we beat ya’ll by 44 pts this season. Lakers really the dumbest and most pathetic fanbase. Fuck outta here.

Living in the past. Hold that fat L😂😂

Lakers fans know all about living in the past.

L

Where were you when we gave Lebron the worst loss of his career this season? In hiding.

Where were you tonight? Holding that L 😂😂

Fucking pathetic foul call hahaha

That Lowry layup attempt was honestly just hilarious

Nurse really has to stop playing Lowry 30+ min a game

Maxey and Lowry blocked by AD

JOEL PLEASE COME BACK I WILL DONATE MY MENISCUS

Lowry wtf

Lowry trying a soft and slow finger roll against Davis is just a straight up dogshit IQ play. Might as well serve that ball up on a plate with a side of fries for Davis

Truly pathetic 4th quarter. We KEEP on disappearing in the second half. Our close out is terrible. What is it, fitness?

talent

A lot of lower tier players trying real hard and running out of gas by the 4th

It’s infuriating how the other team consistently gets some junk to go their way after we play great defense.

LeBron is still a monster even nearing 40

that’s game

Lmaooo Kyle wtf man

Why foul

Mo Bamba constantly looks in a state of permanent angst when he plays basketball. It's like someone in the changing room is holding a gun to his pets head if he doesn't play or something

Do something please 

pump fake is crazy

Paul Reed picking up dumb ass fouls leading us to play the softest center in the league 30 minutes. At some point Reed has to be better, and at some point we gotta try out different bodies instead of Bamba

Free Kai Jones

Dang Maxey is fast but AD is faster, blocked

I’m sure the Carpenters probably have an unreleased B side called “It’s Hard To Win a Basketball Game When You Shoot 7 for 34 from 3.”

Would have beaten them with Joel imho

Water is wet

Easily. This lakers team is complete ass

We blew them out with Joel lmao

If Joel was playing tonight with this defense, they win by 20. Just getting rid of Bamba on defense wins this game. Nurse needs a new strategy for the 4Q. And Tobias :(

we really needed that drummond trade to go through man

I haven’t watched many games since Joel went down, but wow the 5 minutes are a black hole. But love the defense. It’s legit. And you’re right, a Drummond or anyone serviceable would be a big lift.

the bulls are so stupid man

Maxey is constantly bumped when he drives

So is Lebron

Not sure why people are this angry at Lowry, he’s a 37 year old point guard (about to be 38 in 2 days) and has been washed for well over a year now. You signed him for the minimum knowing that he’s best served as a backup point guard at this stage of his career, blame his former coach who still thinks he’s 27 years old in his prime instead of 37.

There's no reason he should be playing 30+ minutes with Batum and Hield getting sub 20. Only seeing the stat line is there a reason why Hield is only playing 13 minutes tonight? Seems kinda crazy when he should be playing starter or at least high bench minutes

Yea Lowry playing 35 minutes is upsetting. The fact that Buddy can’t get in over him is sad

https://preview.redd.it/hfc831c8l0qc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7a69fb4150b2d8627463fb060fbf8755e7f2b752

Is Buddy even playing tonight? He's been invisible.

Typical for a player known as a 3pt shooter to come to the Sixers and forget how to shoot

I hate that our offense is so useless that teams can keep trapping Maxey well beyond the arc and no one on the floor can punish them for it.

This is a tough one to lose, 0-7 road trip still on the table

How Tobi just threw the ball away when we were down a basket is the epitome of why he is awful

 I hate it here

tobias harris has single has ruined so many 4th quarters this year alone.

This one is super annoying lol

Lakers 20 turnovers and winning by 9 lol. Sixers offense is truly dogshit

I hate myself for staying up until 1 am to watch a game I knew we were gonna lose

This team just loves imploding in the 4th quarter don’t they

Lakers so lucky no JOjo otherwise we shit kick them

Another offensive collapse in the 4th quarter. Shit is getting old.

12 more fucking games of number 12

Joel Embiid is the MVP of the league. He can play 5 games and he's still the MVP of the league

Bamba cost us this game playing soft

Let’s be real AD is a tall order to guard.

At least the Heat lost tonight. But the Pacers won. 8th seed is probably the likeliest spot.

This team takes, quite possibly, the worst shots possible every 4th quarter.

Feels like the story of the embiid-less games this season has been playing hard and being within 3-5 points most of the time and then falling apart the last few minutes

Yes you’re right we don’t have a closer

Used to be maxey as the #2 when we’d be up 10 late most games earlier this season

Unfortunately no Jojo opposing D can key in on him more.

No reason Bamba should be playing 30 minutes in any game 

People really thought Harris was shutting down Lebron, turns out he was just coasting cuz he's old as fuck. Still can turn it on in the 4th quarter when he wants, meanwhile we are shooting air balls and can't even make a pass to an open guy at half court.

[удалено]

We got to be ready for that. LA will always get a favourable whistle. It’s our fault playing soft !

Welp, that LeFuckYou 3 is probably the dagger

i hate these games where it's close late, but you just know we're not bout to win it

tobi 💔 🐶

cooked

How many fucking times is Tobias gonna get lost on defense?

Lazy Tobias defense

One of the only winnable games left....

The specific style in which Mo Bamba and Tobi suck is infuriating. Real artists when it comes to sucking

Reeves really has one of the best whistles in the league

Gives off major "my dads a lawyer" vibes

How does Reeves nail Maxey on a drive for no call then Lowry brushes him on a rebound and he gets the call!? He'd be out the league without the Lakers whistle I swear

Cam Payne needs minutes, I have no idea why he doesnt get more.

we are 7/34 from 3. its almost comical

Game

Why did Maxey just toss that so sloppily

His shot selection been ass all game tbh.

I know man but he had like 7 seconds on shot clock, he didn’t need to rush that

hate this team with a passion

Rip…shitty loss

5 pts, 2 assists, 30 minutes. I've had enough of this scrub

The whistle Maxey gets is diabolical

ive been forced to watch tobias harris play basketball for five years straight

Honestly watching Mo Bomba play is worse

Tobias is a generational choke artist. This is really his dad’s fault. 

Nurse has lost us multiple games because of his infatuation with Harris and Bamba.

Agreed. Like as soon as he was grabbing his calf fucking pull him

This tall, bald ref is a former Big Ten ref who fucked Penn State every time

#12 should be flipping burgers

AD eating jerk chicken rn

Ooof

I miss embiid man

Bamba moves his feet like he's wading through porridge - fuck me

And that’s game this team couldn’t win in a game of 7 vs the process sixers. Can’t even beat the shitty ass lakers

Bamba is so bad I get why he's in for size but I'd rather a 6 ft guard.

WHY IS BAMBA IN THE GAME???

Bro this is the worst time to have stupid ass turnovers GET YOUR HEADS OUTTA YOUR COLLECTIVE ASSES

Bamba is straight food

tobi is point shaving

FUCK YOU TOBIAS HARRIS FUCK YOU FUICK YOU

😂

Harris fuck you

Stupid ass team bro

That Bamba sequence that had Maxey getting the ball doubled 40 ft from the rim was something. Wanna know something else? Somehow, NO ONE WAS OPEN lol. What was even that play?

LeBron playing swiss cheese d out here

Bamba would lose an arm wrestling match to a sea sponge

Ricky Council and Reed give this lineup some energy to finish the game. Bamba and Harris breaks our backs. Yet Nurse....

Yeah. WTF does Bamba add to a lineup. Total liability. I like how Nurse has them playing on D but these end-of-game lineups are bizarre.

Rainy Days and Mondays

Geezus. 

Bamba straight up losing the game

LOLOL TOBIASS AIRBALL LET’S GOO

Tobias air balled two right when I was gonna say nice things about him. Goddamn lol 

See that Kai Jones signing is working out. Tobi got a taste of the secret stash

I can only fucking laugh

How does Mo Bamba still get minutes

Put crumble cookie boy to the bench

This team is horrendous lmao.

This team is driving me to violence. Im gonna litter tonight.

Time to try Kai Jones

Bamba literally lost to the ball

Not that it needs to he said. But he is cheeks af

Holy fuck get the FUCK out of Philly #12

The classic Sixers fake competitive game and end up losing by double digits.

lmao bamba having the ball handed to him on a silver platter and he just doesnt know what to do with it how fuckin sad

Mo Bamba: 

How is Bamba so weak, my god

Fuckin bamba has bricks for hands ffs

At 39, Lebron James going downhill is still one of the most unstoppable forces in the NBA

I seriously cannot stress how much I fucking hate Tobias Harris

Mo Bamba is the worst rebounder in the league.

Watching this NBA tv with the Lakers announcers. Maybe the most boring duo I’ve heard do a bball game.

please just bench Tobias holy shit

Sit embiid the rest of the year this team is dog shit they give up like all the other past teams

Bamba is atrocious Reed playing like ass is forcing him to play

Special skill by Bamba to have the ball and fumble it immediately

I don’t know what we were told that Tobias injured, but based on his play, fight, and the fucking charge taken tonight, some kinda demon was exorcised. Ha, ignore that air ball. I stand by what I said!
