    MDA would be possibly thinking about his job if it wasn't for Harden. He's been awful this season. Yes we have insane injuries, but he's done a awful job coaching and HarGod has bailed his and CP3's asses out so far.

    If I’m the Rockets I would use that to our advantage. Just hack Simmons all game, too bad Fultz isn’t playing.

    Schedule loss with all the injuries. Hope they pull out a lakers miracle, but philly is too good for us without cp3.

    Had no idea Wilson chandler was on philly. The 76ers are loaded on the perimeter. And jimmy ain’t even playing

    Annoying - a player (Redick) thinking he’s better than he really is.

    Yes harden gets a lot of calls, but he also gets the least respect from refs than any other MVP.

    He’s getting hit, jumped on, and talked **** to. Yet the refs look the other way

    Faried is good. Why bench him?

    His beard looks like pubes glued to his face. Not his pubes.

    Pretty much the story of the game

    They allowing Harden to be man handled while they are getting touch fouls
    Hell That Embiid Foul by Faried's face was crazy

    Harden has been so damn good but it's hard night in and night out compensating for the current lack of talent around him.

    Seriously. A jump ball on Rivers ? What in the actual ****. Sixers are going to have 20 free throws by half time. Rockets have 13 fouls, Sixers have just 7.

    If Philly isn’t making a shot then they’re getting free throws.

    This is so ****ing annoying.
