Man oh Man , think this really a big test for the fellas

I personally believe Sixers are more dangerous than the Bucks. You know everything is going through Giannis and you have to try stop him from getting in the paint with his ridiculous size and athleticism, well Simmons does similar things. Only difference is that then you just give Embiid in the post if you slow down their fast break so really interested to see how things go today.

Simmons did a real good job against Dame and one of Book's advantage is usually his strength and size against his defender so he gonna really need to go in his bag today. Might have to be a CP3 day attacking Seth but our Bench surely should outscore theirs unless I forgetting some of their guys.

Either way, don't know how many of you guys around for the early start but should be a good one 8-)

Let's get another statement win !!
It was and we passed! Yes sir, MFers!

7am here in Sydney, at tip off Embiid standing next to Ayton makes him look small. Wow.
I was thinking the same thing!

Nice move by Cam for the and-one.
That was beautiful and then the adjustment as he's fouled.

Book getting it going a bit.
yea was light work dealing with Danny Green, I'm fairly certain if the game is close in the 4th they will put Simmons back on him
They did. Didn't matter.

Up 11 with 10:40 left in the 4th. SUNS NEED TO FINISH THIS GAME.
They do and they did. Good vibes all around.

I don’t really get those +, - scores. Apparently a higher + score is a good thing and a - number isn’t as good.

https://www.espn.com/nba/boxscore?gameId=401267566

Kaminsky -7
Bridges -7
Ayton -6

Booker +1
Paul +2
Payne +7
Crowder +16
Saric +18
C Johnson +21
While on the court, what was the net gain. For example, in all the minutes Ayton played, the Sixers outscored us by 6. During all the minutes Saric was on the court, the Suns outscored Philadelphia by 18.
So you are saying our bench kicked ass?
They did! It felt good to have a bench again. I love our Cam/Cam/Saric bench....Moore and Crowder joining them today

Feels like this team is turning the corner to what we hoped they could be... even with their flaws
We just beat the top two teams in the East back to back. Sure feels like turning the corner to me. So good to have a full roster back too!

This closing quarter I think it was we’ve been waiting for between CP3 and Book. They’ve both got it going.
Yeah, I couldn't have taken another one point game. Nice to win going away.

DA is the biggest bitch
For real - book bailed him out, but man... that was like when you are playing a video game and hit the pass instead of dunk button wtf
:D Nice. It was exactly that.

And beat Boston recently and have Brooklyn on Tuesday. 1 win away from sweeping through the top 4 east teams.

Let’s leave even less doubt tomorrow...I want a 20 point halftime lead that balloons to 30 at some point in the 3rd Q. Leading to a lot of Jalen Smith in the 4th.

They are starting to look like a contender. And that's with Ayton being mediocre and Bridges still being a role player. But Monty is coaching, OKCCP3 looks like he is here to stay, Booker is rounding into form, and the Suns depth is legit.
So only 2 of the 4 things we needed to be a good playoff team... It would be amazing if Bridges gets consistent, and DA doesn't disappear for weeks at a time.

Just a really balanced game. 76ers D looked decent but we didn’t just settle for 3s.
The minimum signings except jones are all looking great
Ayton needs to go to the same offseason Bball trainer as embiid
