    I remember one play where Reed gambled and took a while to get back to his matchup, and thought that Ime wouldn't like that. Sixers didn't even score but Ime has to give out his punishment.

    Meanwhile Jabroni can just go out there and shoot 1-10 from 3 and turn the ball over at critical points of the game and Ime still plays him as many minutes as possible.

    The lack of consistency for Ime's discipline is maddening and he needs to be reined in. Absolute dickwad of a coach

    Udoker has ordered me to redact sensitive parts of this report for team security reasons.

    Reed got them shook enough where they didn’t know what to do on D and gave us some easy baskets. Criminal to bench him during OT even though he smoked some layups.

    The other night he said that he didn't mind Reed missing shots. (I guess that probably applies to other players too.) He just can't stand defensive mistakes. So basically, "I don't care how you play offense. Just know that if you mess up on defense, you'll be pull." That's Ime's M.O.

    I didn't watch the game. Looks like it's a close game and we missed a bunch of FT and lost in OT.

    Reading CF, apparently Reed got hot in the 4th but Udoka didn't play him after his hot streak.

    I thought Philly made a run and sabotaged themselves by going to Embiid .......both Embiid and KD turned it over like hell....

    And Maxey's layup looked like Goaltend in retrospect.....and would have won them the game in regulation.

    reed amen and Durant completely changed the game especially when reeds 3pt threat drew so much defense and gave our guys easy dunks

    Fraudoka of course goes away from what’s working and we collapse

    It is NOT lazy passing it is him being 37 and slowing down - he can't make that pass, he is slow now...he is a great finisher, not great at anything else.

    And Ime keeps on ****ING that chicken by overplaying him and leaning into him when leaning into REED is the answer for the entire team.

    Another defeat snatched out of the jaws of victory by not embracing REED and the TEAM first game.

    KD is a big problem Ime is STAR ****ING KD, instead of leaning into team play which wins.

    KD SUCKS as a lead dog he is horrible at it.....

    He is a finisher, nothing more at this point, the team would honestly be better if he were not playing at all.

    Durant is absolutely correct. Yeah, his 8 turnovers didn't help, but at least KD did his part in keeping the game close by scoring 35 points.

    The change that he mentions is to let Reed play 30+ minutes, and stop crucifying the young man for any defensive lapse. This team plays much better with Reed in the game. Everybody can see that, except Ime. Fire Udoka.
