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.

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.

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.

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!

RT @BenAxelrod: NBC gave the Jayson Tatum-Jaylen Brown breakup the Netflix documentary treatment for its intro to Sixers-Celtics. So good.

What a colossal failure by Briere and Jonesy. They are about to fumble away the two most talented players to come into this organization in 25 years. All because of this disgusting obsession with “the Flyer way”. If Michkov goes, I’m done forever

Reminder: if the Sixers win tonight it's proof that the trade was a slam dunk. If they lose, it's just a meaningless regular season game in November. I don't make the rules I'm just reminding you of them.

Invitational Spoiler Alert I’m seeing lots of Duke hate out there. You can definitely not like him or be annoyed by him but he is not the sole reason his team lost. Im sure Marissa would be the 1st to say she played far from her best golf. Duke himself also played well below his level. That’s why they lost. If Marissa plays well and Duke plays Duke golf I think they actually coast through. But Marissa and Duke playing well below their averages is why they lost. Duke wasnt the auto L some people are saying.

Caleb Pressley did the PERFECT setup for a joke, and Bob Does Sports walked right into it without realizing 😭😭 “Girls go to college to get more knowledge, but where did you go” “I flunked out of college and moved to Florida” “Where” “Jupiter” 🤣🤣

The #Eagles now have 10 picks in the top 2 rounds of the draft in the next 3 years. GM Howie Roseman has positioned the team for the future.
BREAKING: The #Eagles are trading DT Jordan Davis to the #Jaguars for a a package that includes a first round pick, per sources. A monster move by Jacksonville to acquire one of the NFL’s top young DTs.
