    This 76ers team is really up and down.. they're kinda like us, plays down to competition.

    Will be interesting to see how our offense looks against an elite defense. Big test for Clint.

    Going to be a good game since the sixers are on a 3 losing streak

    Should be a Rockets win.. 76ers have horrible offensive spacing issues... No need to run out hard at guys at the 3pt line... They love to drive and pull up mid range or go to the basket... We should draw a fair amount of charge fouls

    Isaiah Hartenstein will dominate Embiid.

    Embiid will probably get all of our bigs in foul trouble. We can probably withstand him having a big game as long as we keep the others in check though. Their size will be a good test for us. This is the biggest team we have faced so far.

    If we take rhythm shots and we are hitting it will be a blowout.

    I feel less intimidated by the 76ers this season. Maybe because Butler's gone?

    Sixers lack a shot creator after Jimmy left.

    Past recent games, opponents also used zone in stretches with success.

    Simmons is 59% FT :eek:. Not suggesting hack-a-simmons, just something to watch for.

    They play bully ball. So we do have to be physical.
    If they have Simmons D up Harden, could be a fun match up.

    Their lengths and big men could affect our drives. Modern NBA so offense wise maybe we'll get the calls.

    Will they out rebound us or neutralize the lob threat. Our centers and PF will have a big task.

    For real though it is funny how this works out for The Hitman*. Hart finally earns MDA's trust, and the very next game is against Embiid, who might just devour him while drinking a Shirley Temple.


    *Not sure if it's canon yet but I think Hartenstein should be called The Hitman as an homage to Bret "The Hitman" Hart.
