Sixers just completed 9 games in 16 days, playing every other day in addition to one back-to-back —- going 7-2.
Replying to @MrUram
Sixers are 10-3 overall, 5-2 at home and 10-3 vs the East after their 123-112 win over the Raptors. Tyrese Maxey 27 points. Joel Embiid 20. 76ers overcame an early deficit to win this game.

Disgusted with myself I felt I had to waste this in November.
Oh this Sixers team is BAD bad.

Did Brad Stevens fleece the Sixers….

I echo this - The vibes after the Celtics game have been outrageously low & it’s weird. We’re 12 games into the regular season with a team that is playing together for the very first time! Love the hot start obviously, but everyone have some damn patience for goodness sake lol
NGL it’s hilarious seeing how bummed some other Sixers fans are despite being 9-3. This team is only getting better btw.

Dan Hicks and Rowdy Gaines were far and away the best pairing on any Olympic sport in the United States. Their call of the United States' epic comeback in the 4x100 Free in Beijing will never be forgotten. LA will not be the same without Dan Hicks. RIP.

Awful news. What a legend. Under-appreciated as one of the greatest American broadcasters. Has two of the greatest calls in sports history. His call of the Jason Lezak relay win to secure Gold for Michael Phelps at the 2008 Olympics is an all-timer.
Dan Hicks was an extraordinary colleague, friend and person. In his 34 years at NBC Sports, he was an exceptional storyteller and caller of games and events who elevated some of the biggest moments in sports history. From Olympic swimming and skiing to Notre Dame football, numerous other high profile events and especially as the signature voice of our golf coverage for the last 26 years, Dan’s blend of knowledge, style, enthusiasm and humor informed and entertained fans for decades. But far beyond his on-air excellence, Dan was a better person who welcomed teammates with a smile, a joke, or a word of encouragement, sometimes all three in the same sentence. Our heartfelt condolences and love to his wife Hannah and his daughters Hannah, Ellery and Riley.

Internet Invitational final thoughts: - What a shame the finale was pretty much ruined by Salim being plastered, gotta feel for Whitney and Big John. - @Bigjohngolf biggest winner of the tournament, hands down. - What a redemption arc for Bobby Ray! - I don't care how ugly it looks at times, Riggs played his ass off at the end and absolutely deserved that money (Fat Perez too, obviously)

I’ve seen more Celtics tweets after last night’s game than after they won the NBA Championship 😂

Give Embiid a couple of weeks off to address the plantar fascia injury and get it taken care of. Team needs to add immediately on December 15th at backup 5 spot. They need to get Philon more reps with the bench unit so they can have a true PG that can generate easier shots

Downright terrible game by Jaylen Brown. His worst game of the year in the biggest moment with Philly. Tries to manufacture a rivalry with Jayson Tatum and he fell flat on his face. All while getting outplayed not only by Tatum but Paul George - the player the Celtics preferred.

Bold defensive strategy by the Sixers to just keep giving the Celtics open threes. (They made another while I typed this)

He has mostly shot like shit but Embiid's activity is a huge reason they are back in this game. Has run the floor hard to get a lot of these FTs and is screening and re-screening to try to generate them cleaner looks Also, Dean Wade!

The Sixers may have a Joel Embiid problem.
