    I thought Embidd was on a minutes restriction. The 76ers must smell blood...:(

    Harden needs to get on the glass too. What's with his **** rebounding so far this year?

    We ain't gonna win a whole lot of tough games if the contact on James is gonna keep getting ignored. Because it's not being ignored on the other end.

    Capela / Anderson front court scares nobody.

    Some very ordinary passing and drives so far

    Damn the Sixers are going to be dangerous once they figure everything out

    Refs need to be held accountable. I would love it to be soccer style where players can just walk up to the ref and yell and threaten and bark at his worthless face.

    Hell I've seen players push and shove refs without getting any sort of card.

    I like what the Sixers coaching staff is doing - Embiid is instructed not to stand for the rebound when his teammate is shooting free-throws. Instead he walks and waits on their side of the court ready to defend. Depending on the amount of times his team shoots free-throws, this can really conserve a lot of energy.

    We will never win until our star and team identity is defense first. Swag champs my ass

    Instead what will happen is James will naturally start settling for jumpers because driving will take a toll on him.

    Exactly. "Just ignore it and hoop" is silly because it completely changes his style of play.
