Probably just riding the high of "Super Thursday", but for some reason I am actually feeling really good about this matchup.

A lot depends on Miami's health, they have 4-5 guys that are listed as day to day.

I really think Thybulle should start and put him on Butler or if you bring him off the bench, have him mirror Herro's minutes. Tucker concerns me a bit, I have a feeling he is going to be a mercenary when it comes to slapping at Joel's hand.

I see several dust ups and technical fouls in this match up.

I said before the playoffs that the Sixers best chance at getting to conf finals was as 4 seed so that they would avoid Mil/Bost

If Miami is healthy, I think that they win in 5-6, but if Butler/Lowert are hampered, it is a toss-up

He was out about 3 weeks in 2018 with an orbital fracture

So odds are we won't see him again until the fall

I am sure people will want to blame Rivers for keeping him the game, but it is just another unfortunate injury for Joel. He plays so hard, but is dealing with injuries almost every year in the playoffs

Sixers were not going to the finals regardless, but my worry is that Rivers does not get fired as a result. That would be a problem
