Do you replace Korkmaz with Maxey in the starting line-up. Not asking yall if Doc will do it...we won't but should he?

 

[JoelB]

Maxey
Curry
Simmons
Tobias
Jojo

Shake + Furk , sprinkle Tobias with that 2nd unit

I wouldn’t, removes one of the two sources of points from the unit

Unless he wanted to sit Ben and have dude eliminate the threat of that Gallinari/Okongwu - Capela height advantage we seem to face often

With Ben at this point, the guys value is just matching minutes with Trae and making his life hell

no reason to switch up the units, just give Maxey most if not all of Ben’s non-Trae minutes plus minutes subbing out Kork and/or Seth

 

[JoelB]

tbh im not tripping about who starts...im more concerned with how long Doc stays with lineups off the bench. You dont got to fall in love with a unit and stick with em for 5-6 minut stretches. Rotate nikkas in and out by performance

Nah keep the rotation at 8. Maxey, Matisse and George Hill are the only bench guys. Only play Dwight for short stints..but really he should go Ben as the backup five.

Also love JoJo calling out the officiating discrepancy from how our guys get no calls to how Trae is getting bullshyt calls.

One of the worst officiated games I've seen all season. Joel Embiid getting his first FT in the 4th quarter. Been a bad past few games of officiating, and not just saying that from a Philly tip. shyt has just been inconsistent, them calling whatever whenever they want.

Even Seth was complaining and he doesn’t say shyt. Said there’s no consistency and we’re not getting the body calls that Atlanta is getting.

I'm devastated and can't watch this team anymore for my own mental sake


I won't be on this board for awhile so I won't see any posts y'all mention me in

I didn’t watch the game last night but I’m glad they showed some fight and stayed alive. I really thought it was over and just couldn’t watch the last game in good faith/spirits.

Time to get this game 7 brehs, I know it’s gonna take a good year off my lifespan.

I think if they finish with the right state of my mind they got it. They can come back if the Hawks get up big. They can get up big. There's just a 4th quarter factor that the Hawks seem to be better at, but with the emergence of Maxey, I think it energy wise and literally raises their play. He should theoretically even raise Ben's play (on D).

Dude made some really dumb mistakes but he seemed more able to run with Trae than he did in the past couple games

Honestly hoping Ben bounces back. He looks deep inside his own head. Maybe go back to some of those sets at the elbow from game 3..

The stage is being set for him to be the hero

All on him to be aggressive…
