Jazz 76ers Game THREAD

Both times they played Raptors when JV was healthy Embiid was non factor. Same with Simmons - whenever Kawhi was playing he turned him into turnover machine.

2 game sample size isn't huge

The Jae thumb sprain or whatever is a bit concerning... thumbs take a while to heal and get hit a lot.

Good point. At least it's on his non shooting hand.

Would like to see Exum start if Rubio doesn’t go. I take it Probable means he’s most likely playing.

Agreed but I think Quin will likely go with Royce.

Yeah... sucks catching the ball and on defense. I've had that one a couple times... there are loose balls you can't go get without risk of re-injury. Braces are pretty protective and not too restrictive.

royce is a 4... I'm kinda pissed we haven't figured this out yet. He should pick up Jae's smallball 4 minutes.

Another crap game. Oh well we’ll be world beaters for the next one.

And seriously can’t we just be happy X is looking much better and may potentially be a decent player pretty soon with the hysteria from both extremes ??

We could do that, but then we would no longer be on JazzFanz, which would be a bit sad.

I just watched it. That stretch from the end of the 2nd quarter through the 3rd quarter was a great example why some people hate the NBA. The refs clearly gave the Sixers an unfair advantage.

- travels not called
- Utah players fouled with no call
- bogus fouls called for them
- balls clearly off them given back to them
- 10+ free throws on non-fouls in the 3rd quarter

It was truly hard to watch unless you are a Sixers fan. I give Philly credit for their ball movement, but it's hard to know if they are a better team when they are given such an advantage.

My brother who doesn't watch the NBA said "those two refs must be from Philly". People in my section were furious, throwing F bombs and generally just freaking out. I actually have a sore throat today from yelling at the refs and Embiid.

The word "miraculous" makes me think no. Since miracles are typically rare

Okay, can we have a 29-6 stretch again? Even 25-10 puts us close to where we should be. That seems doable especially remembering that Rubio has historically been much better the 2nd half of a season.

Watch Royce O'Neale start in his place with Mitchell at the 1. Feels like something Snyder would do.

With all due respect to Rudy, Embiid is the best center in the world and it isn’t close.

That’s what Snyder has done.

I wouldn’t mind that either because I feel he can play pg, and look natural doing it.
