This Nets 6ers game is pretty slow paced and uneven but 13 pt diff isn’t too bad for a 1st quarter.

Embiid should be dominating inside, but he’s still playing like he’s a wing player :unimpressed:

Terrible time to be a Sixers fan, I knew the fall off was coming at the end of last year's playoffs. But our window is over now.


Only thing stopping another rebuild is Embiid's presence and his desire to be here. But how long is that gonna last? I think an inevitable injury in the future will force our hand eventually.

Delta and Omicron are the dominant variants at the moment and both spread very easily; however the vaccine is proven to stop the spread and mitigate symptoms. The main issue is not enough guys received their boosters in time. Hopefully over the next month the boosters will help slow this spike

that's got little to do with the problem of spread - which is the nba giving no fukks about modifying their own protocols to best protect players and staff

the time for panic was weeks ago but instead its obvious that the call up solution likely accelerates the spread because guys are picking it up as they travel. games should've been suspended at least when there were positive tests between home/home and back to backs. it would at least give organizations to properly identify where shyt was coming from and the extent of the spread. now? damn near every team in the league is playing catchup while also bringing in guys that they have to test and hope for the best with as well.

there's no opportunity to get out in front the problem

Nope, and it’s too late now.

I imagine the Xmas day games are gonna be a disaster.
