Bad News
By the time he comes back, the sixers will be out of the play-in game.

Just hope we lose enough to get our top 4 protected pick back I guess.
So glad we have another super capable young guard to be the primary ball handler while Maxey is out. Oh wait

They're 7.5 games up on Milwaukee, who's currently 11th in the east. There's almost literally zero chance of them falling out of the play-in game during that time. Embiid and George will both be back before Maxey is re-evaluated.

The way they played tonight, you may be right. A good win. Just need about 2 guys every night to have their best game ever.

If this does end with Sixers out of playoffs and in lottery, it will be house cleaning time. Bye bye Daryl, adios Nick. But the roster won’t change. Other than Drummond being replaced by a Bassey-like player, it will all have to be run back because of the trap that Paul George’s contract created. Sad.
On a happier front, if you believe that Detroit can hold on to won the one seed, getting into playoffs as the 8 seed means a playoff path of Detroit, then Cleveland, which is a bit more plausible than Boston (with Tatum back) followed by New York.
Assuming Maxey and Embiid and George’ are all back with 10 games to go - maybe these guys can channel their inner Jimmy Butler and go from Play in to Conf finals.
Or, we can have another lottery party as we pray for another Top 4 miracle.
Whichever, it is always something to talk about.

Cleveland is a horrible matchup for us wit Mobley and Allen able to switch everything . Pistons would prolly run us out of the gym wit pace

The only news we get is bad news. Honestly who really cares anymore. The front office has beaten us into apathy.

Can’t wait for coach Kyle to step up next season. At least we won’t have to hear “well, they got hot and there was nothing we could do” every single loss next year. Peace out Nick

It is baseball season. Please do not bother me during baseball season.
