Of course Huk hurts himself in the 1 game where he starts and can get unlimited minutes
One thing about TJ is he can get 3's up and make them at a good clip. Hopefully we actually sign him and give him a chance.

Would you guys keep Shamet or maybe bring in both TJ and Okeke in?
A win is a win but it shouldn't have gotten that close. Thankfully we have the best clutch player in the entire league. Brunson had 9 straight points late in the 4th after the Sixers took a 4 point lead. Incredible once in a lifetime player! And lucky for us Maxey was 0-10 from three but the overall effort defending the 3 was a lot better.
Good to see Bridges have a good game. He came out angry and hit his first 6 or 7 shots. We need more consistency from him. Hart with his typical monster game with 17 rebounds. I hope Hukporti is alright. He was having a nice game before he got hurt. That Precious dunk over Boma was vicious!
Rachel Zegler has to be the ugliest famous chick I've ever seen.

Waive Shamet and bring in Warren.

I can't tell but Shamet doesn't seem to do much, especially considering Deuce has similar role?

Shamet was supposed to be mini DVo and he's shooting 33% from 3 so he's not it.
When I watch this quick I see a combo of Randle and iHart
Philly two stars showed pride in the second half.
OG played a lot and does look slow. He playing back into it?
We missing all three centers after Huk went out.
Nurse and that roster even with no Embiid should not be as bad as advertised.
Credit to there play in second half.
Don't waive Shamet. Its not like we can just plug and play guys in and out. Im not saying his play has been stellar. Its weird, he did have a shot go in and out then he does not look to shoot really. Deuce on the other hand has the green light as he should. Don't cut guys this time of year unless one is sure he is cooked. Shamet is not DDV. We got him for 2mm off the scrapheap and he
Delon? Kolek and Dadiet just sitting?
We got the win, all that matters. Philly playing for their pride. PG a HOFer? Maxey a true all-star now. Oubre was feeling it. Its the NBA, good player get hot its not easy. Its what leads are for.
Its not like we bonafide contenders now? Are we?

Granted, Bona and Drummon are not the best at the position but I really was encouraged by Huks footwork last night. His dumb fouls need the to work thru with experience but his work in the paint offensively is very good. At 22 he still needs more lower body strength but that should develop. As the games slows down he might realize also he is wide open despite his back to the basket and a jump hook might get it done.
PG13 played 42 min, Maxey 44. Its not just Thibs.

His quickness was fantastic. Over eager perhaps and I thought the same on overall strength too.
Dumb fouls and knowing where and when and how to be... Drummond beat him down the court for a dunk early on that was just him know being aware.
I was super encouraged.
Do we have any centers in Westchester? We might need to call up one. Need some height if both Huk and KAT are out.

Josh - 0-0
Bench of Shamet, Precious, Cam, Deuce - 0-3
Agree we don’t shoot enough 3’s especially against the elite teams like Celtics
Man Josh is a rebounding fiend and gets to the rim but he is avoiding any distance shooting and the TO’s 🤦♂️
4-19 from distance for all of Feb, 21%. 11-44 in January, 25%.
Not ideal.
Wonder when Thibs will start Deuce

1-4 from FT last night too, he is in his own head.
The last 4 games- barely beating scrub teams, blow outs against top teams.

Not crazy about the idea of starting Deuce and making the backcourt even smaller. But maybe it balances out with the team getting bigger upon MitchRob's return.On the bright side, at least Josh is turning down as many shots as he did earlier in the season.Be careful what you wish for.😂

Yeah and with a Deuce-Josh swap, rebounding goes to shit without KAT
