SGA would've been the best. I'll agree that it shouldn't belong on the list with other post-Hinkie hits, but there's still a pretty good list of quality moves there.

I'm not a fan of Colangelo, but the guy had a cogent vision for the team (surround Ben and Jo with shooters) and may have gotten us better coaching by now. At the same time, he fucked up badly with the Fultz trade, got poor value for Nerlens and Jah, and embarrassed the franchise with his burner tweets.

I think we have three legit what ifs with this team regarding the FO (what if Hinkie didn't get forced out, what if Colangelo didn't pull the Twitter shit and get fired, and what if Brand ran back last season's team with a different coach) that imo would probably have us in a better position than we're in.

What if we’d traded Ben and resigned Jimmy?

Embiid wasn’t good enough in 4Q

-Doesn’t box out kanter which leads to tip out 3 for brown (we never led again)
-Cant challenge Kemba shot as a help defender (fouls him for 3 point play)
-Asinine rage foul on Smart
-Stopped fighting for deep post position (this is on Brown too who kept trying to use him in “pick and roll” which consists of him failing to set a good pick and not really rolling)

He dominated at times in 1H but too many turnovers as well. Thought it was a poor (for him) game as a rim protector, only 1 block and the two key 4Q fouls mentioned above

He should've won that board with the missed Burks FT at the end. If he grabs that and scores, we're down 2 with 30 seconds on the clock.

Jo is just never going to be in good enough shape, is he?

Although we started out fine in 1Q offensively and had some nice high-low sets, think brown might go to Matisse as starter instead of Horford just because he was the only guy who was somewhat effective on Tatum

If hayward is gonna miss game 2 it's a much easier decision. Put Shake on Smart.

He was exhausted

Same starting lineup tonight, or is Tisse in?

Barkley calls Browns decision to bench Al “basic common sense.”

Beautiful jersey game

Jo gonna go for 40 babies

Joel just dropped the Shaq Daddy shoulder. Bully

2 fouls on Tatum

Jo's got hot pants

Tatum has the best shitty beard in the league

When you don’t turn the ball over, the offense doesn’t look terrible!

I mean, there are always bad calls but that call on Jo before the TV time-out is atrocious. He’s standing still and smart initiates the contact. Ridiculous.

Refs quick to take one back by getting Jo for a bullshit call
