I was at the game last night. One thing I’ll tell you is that Joel looked super comfortable passing out of double teams. Which will be very important come playoffs

[kailaskrishnan]

Embiid being dominant on Defense and Offense is why I like him more than other Centers in the league. Defense matters. I like my 5 to be able to defend.

The media loved to hate on Harden and constantly talk about him, he's been playing really solid lately, no one talks about him lol, guess that's a good thing but give the man his props

[mura]

More than offensively I like seeing stars play tough defense and that's why I like Embiid and Giannis.

They’re legit contenders, but they’re still gonna be judged by what they do come playoff time. If Harden becomes that 2nd fiddle to Joel Embiid, they can challenge both the bucks and the celtics

It wasn’t Joel’s block on Ja, it was the charge that PJ took that slowed Ja’s moment down and made the block a cake walk for Joel.

yo.... the first highlight track, of the sixers vs griz..sampled the bell they rang at the begining of the game?? good on the tnt production crew

At this point Kenny says nothing he must be trolling 😂

[pao_banaag]

Great win for the sixers. They hung in there and it's cool how harden stepped up

[Eersfan]

Can you turn up the music louder during the highlights I could still almost hear their commentary

[emoneyk]

Them Grizzlies never seem to disappoint 😂😂

[davidshaw]

As a Sixers fan I'll believe it when I see it, still a lot of issue w this team that could plague us vs Boston and Miluwalkee

[deeflow]

Yes, embiid has to dominate, to his credit embiid have been taking advantage of smaller players guarding him. If he keeps that up, he will be unstoppable

[richardsansbury]

Give the ball to Maxey. Sixers need more movement and pace on offense. Sixers need more speed.

[dennistfossettjr]

Nice to see players scrambling like that after the all star game

[bluestangGT]

Their second best player and head coach are notorious for underperforming in the playoffs. I'll believe it when I see it with this team

[mrudhul]

Shaq got injured just watching the all star game.. No wonder these players did not play hard 😂😂😂

[admxom]

The Sixers need to force Embiid to wear protective gear come playoff time. He always gets hurt when it matters most, and it damages their second round playoff chances (at least). Dude needs to consistently wear a mask, ankle and knee braces, AND shoulder guards lol 💯

It’s a long season. I was one of the people saying that the pelicans were serious title contenders, and look how that turned out.

[ako_gare]

The Sixers have always kinda been contenders, but I believe this year is do or die for them.
They always make it out of the first round, but afterwards I feel like they relax and that's when they lose, it's Embiid's last year on his contract, so wether if they lose early it's gonna be interesting to see what's gonna happen.
