Harden just tied Simmons on the Sixers all-time 3-pointers made :josad:

harden was legit playing possum befote. Sixers may actually foul out an entire team this season



Yeah I feel like RJ’s free throws should be better? Hes averaging like high 60s this season
Not unless they're beating teams by 30 just like right now lol

it was a problem for him in college too (missed some costly FTs during March Madness that could have got them to the Elite 8 when he played with Zion/Reddish). But his entire career he's always been willing to work on his game so I have confidence he'll get it fixed at a future point

that's Harden's game nothing we can do about that, I'm more disappointed that we made Embiid take 27 FT attempts
I mean... That's also Embiid's game as well. His free throw attempts per game this season is the 2nd highest in the last 10 years behind Harden's last season with HOU. In some ways, it's tougher with Embiid 'cause he actually gets fouled in the post in addition to being 2nd best foul drawer behind Harden.
 
I'm sorry to say this but I couldn't help but LMAO. Sims fouls out early in the 4th, Robinson comes in then he fouls out in a minute. It's like watching the Rockets again!
The two of them have taken like 80 free throws together in the two games and :sighting:

I'd prefer a loss more than anything for this team the rest of the way X_X
This team isn’t going anywhere. Why is randle still on this squad. Our starting point guard is just getting cardio out there

I hope they strive to improve their free throw attempts every game going forward. Make it long like in baseball lol


On a side note, love that Maxey is playing the Eric Gordon role of just attacking or shooting as a release valve for Harden & Embiid. Tobias just gotta let it fly and not be like Melo every time. He was brutal

for context though, Embiid's 27 FT (which along with 21 makes are both career highs for him) attempts were the most since the 2017-18 season when (former) 76ers Ben Simmons shot 15/29 from the FT line against the Wizards. I expect him to shoot 10-12 FTs a game but never 25+ every night

Harden will always be hitler to me lmao but I like the duo of him and Embiid

Im rooting for them to win the East.
@RobertoTheOharaSurvivor Us, three again. Just like good 'ol OJ days :moonwalk:
welcome back Brix :)

it's been a miserable season for the Knicks unfortunately. 8+ double digit leads gone that turned into losses in the month of February alone and the Knicks are 12th in the East, where the new cutoff for the playoff + play-ins is 10th and they're only 5 games ahead of a Pacers team intentionally trying to tank right now

Oi Brix! Tagal na lol

You're a Curry guy, man. It's only natural after all the Rockets vs Warriors games lol but yeah, especially Embiid after almost carrying them to #1 seed without Simmons, who's probably not gonna play next week after Windhorst said he might take another month lol

I just heard that y'all only won once since a month ago. I wish you won against BRK (and MIL as well) so that they don't qualify for the play-in lol

RJ looked pretty good again though. He's def. getting calls like a star now
