we still have a shot at the 4th seed which is home court...Blue

..all we have to do is tie either the Cavs or Philadelphia..we own the tiebreaker on both

 

we'd rather be 4th than 5th

I agree that it would be nice to have home field advantage. Still would rather have Philadelphia in 5th than Cleveland though.

Yeah, I always say he has to score at least 15. The other night in Denver he only had 8 and we lost by 3.

he's 11 of 13 from the floor......I know he has that in him..

He just doesnt do it often enough

 

Maybe he's saving it for the series with Cleveland!

I am hoping Philly loses 2 more games and we win our last 3. Both teams would end up 50-32 and we have the tiebreaker = HCA and 4 Seed.

He's only taken 33 and he made 12. He just doesn't shoot them often because centers shouldn't be taking that many threes. 

 

A center shooting 36% from 3 is really good.

That's what I'm thinking..

We probably cant get to the '3' because Cleveland plays Philadelphia...ad one has to win

If Cleveland loses tonight and the 76ers beat the Cavs....(and we win our final 3, a big if) we are the 4 and the Cavs are the 5.

But it could work your way, too

That is true. It just took me by surprise seeing him shoot one because he rarely does. It's 12 makes now. I said 11

This is a very impressive win. Great win with limited minutes but it will still be very tough tomorrow on the road in Toronto.

Blue...nobody wants to say it out loud..

 

but with Boston crippled..Philadelphia possibly crippled..

Washngton confused......Cleveland trying to win D-free.....and us at full strength.

 

...we can get to the east finals..we really can,,We can beat Cleveland or Philadelphia

I'm sick of people talking about the Sixers. I want them bad with or without Embiid. 

 

The good thing about this Pacers team is that most of them were in the playoffs last season and have had a taste of what the playoffs are like.

 

Nobody on the Sixers besides JJ Reddick and Marco Belenelli have experienced a playoff game.

I bet Curry comes back by then but not sure??

You could be right..Just because GSW SAID he wouldnt play in the first round doesn't mean he wont...

But I'll say it again..Golden State is not a young team anymore. They are injury prone. Andre Igudala is hurt

 

Its not just OKC..what if they draw Utah?

Me too. ESPN and the NBA Network are all over the Sixers Jock Straps.

Steve Kerr said there was no way Steph plays in the first round. However, Steph did say he hopes to prove him wrong. Could go either way.

Me either, ESPN as a whole had us winning 32 games. I had us winning 35 lmao. We now have won 47 and clinched a 5 Seed. Just Great stuff folks!

and remember us not wanting to trade Paul George to the Cavs or Boston...?

WE sent him out of the conference

 

Good move

Utah is a dangerous team as we seen when they came here, they beat us by 20. The West is loaded.

Thad Young mentioned contract negotiations in his post-game interview tonight. Maybe he won't take the player option after all.

That's crucial...Blue.....

If he resigns with us...or simply doesn't opt out....we can bring this entire team back next year..

If not, we've got to go get somebody

    • We have to win Games 3 and 4 or it is over for sure. Can't fall down 1-3. We had Game 1 in the bag but can't dwell on that now, it's history. TJ McConnell, Haliburton, Toppin, Pascal, and Turner are the 5 players that need to be in to finish Games 3 and 4. 
    • She is bigtime, Peyton gave her all of his airport connections (captains) on what flights to take, he also gave her his contacts for St. Elmo to get free meals. 
    • The Fever had 3 of their games televised last year.  Tonite is their first game this year, and  I’ve read they are scheduled to be on 36 times. (Edit- I had read that. I just checked WTHR, and they are covering 17 games, and The WNBA App says it will carry tonite for free, and every WNBA game on their League Pass. I read that Hulu will carry some games. I have no idea what other outlets will carry the Fever.) Ticket sales have skyrocketed nationwide for Fever Games- several nationwide arenas where the Fever will play away are sold out for her game. All before she has played a game. If she produces as advertised, she can and will write her ticket to riches. (And already has!)
    • Love how much Laiatu Latu seems to be enjoying his experience as a new Colts player:    
    • The off season champs Texans are at it again, Ben Skowronek traded to Texans from Rams.    https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/40114164/texans-trade-pick-rams-receiver-ben-skowronek
