Sixers need a go to player. Embiid needs to come back quick.

He's been medically cleared so he could be back for Game 3 and if he does, that will change the whole series again.

The Sixers were close last night even though they shot 19% from the three point line, so I'd still give the edge to them, without a doubt.

Embiid might lose his mind if he doesn't play game 3.

They should just shut him down. Give Simmons beastly XP

Sorry about that! I’ll try an find a blurred one.

but it seems like Joel is tired of his restrictions and just wants to play. He’s the anti Rose and Kawhi.

What happened. Also believe VV is the most important of The Raps bench stars .

So weird to watch.  What do you do when you’re down 10 and your star player can’t shoot?

Simmons is a rookie and more facilitator than scorer. If people are expecting on him to be some dominant playoff scorer at this stage than that's probably more of a problem with their expectations

Bruised shoulder in the final regular season game. James Johnson got him on an illegal screen. 

He probably is. He’s a key cog in all of our most effective lineups including the starters with him in and OG out that can close games. 

Im so glad we have Delon Wright as well. He came up huge game one hopefully he can do the same tonight.

Chances that he brings down the Liberty bell consumed by rage and fury after sitting out another game?

And it somehow looks better on the raptor than on Westbrook.

Raps are on hitting everything.

Got that game one monkey off our backs. Game 2 is when the playoffs start in Toronto and they are showing the team they were all (or most of the) season. Great start.

Also enough of this Toronto and Washington are basically even in terms of talent maybe 1-2 they are but 3-11 Toronto is way better.
