Somebody tell the 76ers that they don't have their 2023 1st Round Pick.

Also Harden with another 40 minutes. Dude's gonna be gassed by the all-star break.

Anytime you have the opportunity to run your players into the ground for an 0-3 start, you gotta take it.

idk why they're even playing him 40 at the start of the season lmao

I could write an essay on Doc Rivers but I won't do him the satisfaction

[–][deleted] 915 points916 points  (76 children)

I don’t get why he constantly gets so many chances he’s a horrible coach.

[–][deleted] 1067 points1068 points  (36 children)

3 hall of famers dragged him to a ring so he gets to be in the nba for life

[–]Spursmainvolume 620 points621 points  (23 children)

He had a decent rookie season with the Magic where he won COY. That carried him along for 10 years then the aforementioned title happened. Now he just gets to wander around the league, changing teams every few years to destroy a franchise.

        this greatly slows down my narrative of him being back

        [–]WarriorsStellewind 131 points132 points  (0 children)

        He does look visibly faster than last season. Maybe not back to prime MVP Harden but I can see him back to close to all-NBA level.

              The Sixers need to figure out how to get bench production. They can't keep playing their starters 40 minutes especially in a B2B. In 3 games, the Sixers bench has only scored 34 points TOTAL while not even playing defense.

              [–][MIL] Giannis AntetokounmpoWIN011 203 points204 points  (11 children)

              Not sure why Thybulle has barely played. Their bench is scoring anyway at least he plays defense.

              [–][deleted] 48 points49 points  (5 children)

              haven’t watched the games, but i assume it’s a spacing thing? if offense is the problem he’s not the solution but his defense would make it so the Sixers weren’t in a massive deficit every time they put in the bench

              [–]girlfriend_pregnant 126 points127 points  (4 children)

              Our best shooters on the bench aren’t playing, besides niang, who is just as bad on D as thybulle is on O. Shake Milton looks like a new guy, visibly put on muscle, looked great in preseason, good shooter, microwave scorer…. He hasn’t played a minute.

                                Pop is so much better at coaching than Doc that he beat him without wanting to

                                [–]KnicksArsonHoliday 150 points151 points  (17 children)

                                This is an entirely different conversation. The Spurs, w the roster they have, seem to be tanking. But Pop won’t let that happen and they can’t fire him. Weird situation there.

                                [–]Spurskwelts 91 points92 points  (6 children)

                                Tanking is not a coaching decision. It’s a front office decision. Pop wants wins. Players want wins and stats. Orgs want a rebuild

                                [–]Dominican RepublicKoioua 143 points144 points  (5 children)

                                Pop is probably trying to tank, but also keeping the team from developing a losing culture. We absolutely need to tank, but he seems to place emphasis on letting players develop and grab their wins as well.

                                [–]RaptorsDomincNdo 95 points96 points  (3 children)

                                With the roster that they have and how strong the rest of the West is, losing will come naturally. Why not try to win games? Spurs have a really good winning culture and that's worth keeping. Look at the Kings. Lots and lots of top lottery picks but has a horrible losing culture and that has gotten them literally nowhere. Rather get like picks 4-8 while trying to keep the culture intact than destroy and not even be guarantee the top pick

                                [–]Spursmainvolume 28 points29 points  (0 children)

                                Spurs were giving it their best shot last season and only ended up with around 33 wins. They traaded away their best player and a great role player in White. Despite them being 2-1 right now, I don't see them winning over 25 games. Eventually Pop will give the other rookies some play time and that'll be some real struggle ball.

                                            My biggest takeaway from this game is that Doc Rivers may actually be the worst coach in the league. And that’s not just memes. I mean actually the worst coach in the league.

                                            They just pass the ball back and forth, taking turns dribbling on offense. When Harden knows it's Embiids turn he just stands out of the way. Maxey is the only guy that can get to the basket. I would hate for this to be my team.

                                            Although that’s been the Sixers offense since the Process, also Harden taking a break when he lets someone do the work has been his MO since Houston.

                                                          An NFL game is about 4.8 NBA games worth of schedule. So this is correct, booing at halftime or the 3rd quarter potentially.

They were active on the boards and got a lot of loose balls. Doug McDermott went on a personal 7-0 during a key stretch in the 4th (with the Spurs down one) to give the Spurs the lead for good. That’s two in a row for the rebuilding Spurs.

Before the start of the season, Devin Vassell had an Instagram Live stream and people told him that the Spurs should tank for Victor Wembanyama. Vassell disagreed, saying that he likes Victor but they're not tanking for him and that "we hoopin', y'all see"... Apparently Devin and the Spurs took that seriously tonight...
