Ooh. That was ugly.

My concerns about talent and scoring have been born out, especially on the wings.

The early season scoring was a mirage and while Hayes being out hurts them, he alone doesn't unlock scoring.

Wow. Kings' really have a problem closing games.

Like a lot of young teams, they just can't finish.

They do everything right to get a 4th quarter lead but they do not look now how to win. Frankly, I want no parts of Fox. He's not a 4th Q PG. Maxey is already better at that part.

Sixers Win!!!

Sing, bitches, sing!!

This is where Doc pisses me off as a coach and want him gone.

He's sitting here watching Drummond get abused and be ineffective the entire 3rd Q and doesn't take him out until under 7 but it's too late. He's getting P&Rd to death, lobbed to death, out rebounded.

I need 15-16 shots per game from Joe when they're shorthanded

Hell, I want that many when they're healthy. Curry is getting exposed with more defensive awareness to stop him. Small and slow isn't a good combination as a starter. I'd rather he light up 2nd units.

Athletic Kings are a bad matchup for Drummond as a starter.

He's become much less effective as his time grows as a starter.
