Yeah, they better not take Miami lightly
It was closer than I thought, but don't think we took them lightly. They are well coached and had seen us already. Likely made some changes...did seem like the lobs were not as easy to get and Garland was swarmed more (another reason we could use sexton)

KLove on fire lol. Really encouraging Okoro has played very good offensively the last 4-5 games.

PJ Tucker carried the Heat tonight but they just don’t have enough scoring and bodies, still play tough defense. I guess Tucker isn’t washed….lol
If Okoro is the guy we've seen the last 3 games we can be elite. I don't expect him to be scary good like he's been but if he can just be a 45% shooter and 35% from 3 with his defense we could at least be in running for a home playoff series.

He should seek anger management. He's not all there


So an illegal screen that wasn't called, got elbowed in the face and nothing was called and got kneed in the basket-balls.

He's one of the most (if not the most) disrespected all star/league MVP of all time. He had a right to get pissed again. Lesser players get calls he doesn't.

He has anger issues just like you. I think you both should get help

It’s the way the league officiates Big Men. I see it with Embiid. Embiid gets mocked for all his flailing and histrionics on the court. He didn’t used to be that way. But he came to understand that you often have to embarrass and guilt these officials into making a call. Guys like Embiid and Jokic get fouled on nearly every touch but officials seem to look at it like you’re big, you should be able to play through illegal contact. It’s frustrating if you’re a fan of a team with a plus Big Man.

It's not right now today's big men get disrespected. And I've seen enough Philly games this season (league pass is great) that what you said about Embiid is 100% correct.

No shit, not a person breathing that didn’t think that.
There were many who didn't. There were other options other than letting him go and likely still paying most of his salary to go play for someone else.

So you just gonna ignore that Jokic was fouled multiple times and nothing was called? Call yourself an idiot, I'm busy.
