    Without Embiid there it really feels like we’re watching a slightly upgraded Rockets.

    Once you look at the league for what it truly is as a whole( just entertainment). You’ll care less about the wins and losses

    if the nba was a real sport like the mlb, nfl and nhl. Harden would have been voted mvp in 2017, 2018 and 2019

    Corrupt Refs like Scott foster would be subpoenaed to testify under oath detailing his involvement with Tim donaghy

    Missed the first half - can someone explain to me how Harden has 21 points off 14 shots, 9 of them being 2 pointers, and have no FTs at halftime? Just a weird statline for the Beardo

    no fouls because no one is trying to play any defense on either team.

    76ers keeping it closer than I would have thought without Embiid.

    Might not be as fortunate in the 2nd half.

    Lol Maxey clearly shook up and likely injured, Doc just tells his team to GO GO GO

    Landing zone? Come on refs
