Maybe it'll change under Ime, but the C's under Stevens displayed an uncanny ability to play to the level of their opponent, night after night. It was maddening.We can’t underestimate these Wizards. They are a pretty good team with Beal in the lineup. The new pieces seem to fit decently and their depth is good…….except for Kispert who will be playing in Turkey by 2026.
Isn’t that the NBA as a whole for so many teams? Look at the Warriors and Thunder last night I think it was tied after 3 and they were losing at the half. With 82 games it’s only natural especially within your own division and conference where there is familiarity that breeds contempt.Maybe it'll change under Ime, but the C's under Stevens displayed an uncanny ability to play to the level of their opponent, night after night.

Maybe, but I followed Sixers scores closely last season, and when they play inferior opponents, they often jumped on them early and blew the game open.Isn’t that the NBA as a whole for so many teams?

Sixers we’re unique last year. They blew a ton of teams out and they would also no-show and get blown out themselves also to some bad teams on occasion (obv much less since they won most of their games). I don’t think that is the one NBA norm but I’m only going by recall.Maybe, but I followed Sixers scores closely last season, and when they play inferior opponents, they often jumped on them early and blew the game open.
That's 'cause Simmons wanted to get up big early so it wouldn't matter whether or not he took a shot in the 4Q.Maybe, but I followed Sixers scores closely last season, and when they play inferior opponents, they often jumped on them early and blew the game open.
Good point.That's 'cause Simmons wanted to get up big early so it wouldn't matter whether or not he took a shot in the 4Q.
I love him keeping the ball alive off the O-boards and generating 2nd chance pointsTL owning the boards. Has 4 in 5 minutes and about 4 others that he tipped to teammates.
Wish he had the ball more last trip when he dropped itJaylen should have the ball a lot more in this lineup.
Seemed to fall off when Al sat.They worked them over with interior passing early so naturally it doesn’t continue.
That's an insult to the word "offense."Offense isn't working. At all. Dudes standing around.
We have good players?It’s a real shitshow when the good players are off the floor.
He made his first one. Knew we were in some trouble after that.Marcus continues to hoist up early shot-clock threes. He's already 1 for 5.
