The Sixers lost a thrilling game on Wednesday. It was an admirable defeat but close does not count unfortunately and the team dropped to a dreadful 1-5. The Sixers had plenty of chances to win down the stretch but, Kevin Durant happened. I also forgot the Suns had Bradley Beal who is suuuuuper underrated. Paul George looked pretty good in his first game as a Sixer and scored 15 which is encouraging for sure. He seems to fit in pretty well on this roster. If only Embiid could finally join in....

Embiid actually has been suspended three games after shoving that media member. Not that it matters since Joel is not even playing anyway!
Tonight the Sixers are in Hollyweird to face the Clippers. The Clippers look ok, but I believe with George in the lineup, the Sixers actually stand a pretty good chance. It will be nice to beat James Harden after he left the Sixers a few years ago.
Not really much else to report on. I have definitely been slacking on some of my posts but it is what it is. It will be nice to watch some good old regular basketball after all election shenanigans.
I have a good feeling about this game, I think George will be even better tonight and he gets to play his former team. Not sure if there' like bad blood or anything, but players often like to beat their former teams anyway. Hope he shows out!
