Maxey may be out b/c of sickness.

Glad we have a guy like Tobias Harris who will step up in his absence.

Will Nick Nurse finally understand that he can't keep running Harris when he's ineffective? Will he understand he needs to play his athletes over his vets? Will he tank the season with his obsession with playing Harris?

[BelmontShore]

Embiid and Maxey are a go.

[BelmontShore]

This just in... Harris still sucks.

How do you leave a layin short?

[BelmontShore]

Nurse doubling down on the stupid running his least athletic lineup out there with Harris, Batum and Hield.

Clueless.

[BelmontShore]

Someone other than Embiid and Maxey have to make baskets. Oubre has been point blank and blown bunnies. Lowry is shooting 3s from too deep, it's outside his range and Harris is Harris. Hield won't even attempt a shot or move to get freed up to shoot.

[BelmontShore]

Harris' man is Anunoby. Maxey is guarding Hart. Please explain why Harris is guarding Hart when Maxey is already guarding him and Anunoby is alone under the rim for a dunk.

How does Nurse keep playing him. Why.

[Captain Obvious]

There have been quite a few ticky tack calls here in the second quarter
