Sixers Hive

🚨ULTIMATE NBA FANBASE TOURNAMENT🚨 Looking for two fan accounts from each NBA team to go into one giant tournament to determine which NBA team runs NBA twitter. I’m going to be tagging fans from each team below to get two for each. This is the Western Conference Thread.

ITS MVP PAUL TIME LETS GOOOOO

I’m feeling the Sixers getting Lamarcus Aldridge in a buyout👀

Been on Aleksej since Day 1👀👀

Sixers are playing 8 back to backs when the Sixers notoriously sit Embiid in the second game of back to backs when Joel Embiid is the MVP front runner and Lebron James is the other name in consideration🧐That seems correct. Shouldn’t be questioned whatsoever

@BartenderShane6 I would love an explanation

FIRST HALF THOUGHTS -Tobias needs to shoot more -Danny needs to be outlawed from dribbling altogether -Simmons needs to play like this every game -Anyone who hates on Harden also has to hate on Lillard or you’re a hypocrite -Joel Embiid is your MVP

This kid is gonna be special

That Thybulle block on Fox😳😳😳

Defensively for the Sixers -More of that Matchup Zone needs to be used. It’s a rare defense that is tough to figure out and play against. Simmons and Thybulles depth make it deadly -Their ball screen coverage is perfect already although it seems exaggerated at times

Offensively for the Sixers... -Use Shake Milton and Tobias Harris in P&R situations -Use Ben Simmons in double high ball screens with a pick and pop option for the screeners -Most importantly PLAY THROUGH JOEL. Allow him to collapse the defense and play through lockouts

@WolvesGotNext I think Simmons being termed the “most disappointing” is fair but only because everyone else has played so well. Danny Green is the least impressive player but he never had the expectations Simmons had. Everyone is hating on Simmons but he’s doing what he needs to do to win

Do you agree with your teams most disappointing player this season?

Matisse Thybulle and Ben Simmons at the top of a matchup zone

@DonRNewLegacy @SnowmanEmbiid First off whether they turn into points or not. It stops the other team from scoring points....

@SnowmanEmbiid How many of those steals and deflections turns into points? I’m just asking

Matisse Thybulle every game 0 points 0 rebounds 0 assists 16 steals 83 deflections

Flyers goalies are facing too many shots for this to be sustainable

Tobias Harris deserves the all star over Ben Simmons and if the Sixers don’t get 2 All Stars between the 3 as the one seed some bullshit is going on

@connorr125 Yes in quarters 2 and 3 Ben Simmons kept us in the game so I will include him

@HiveSixers And Ben Simmons

I want to be very clear as a Sixers fan that the Sixers did not deserve to be in that game and I would like to thank Matisse Thybulle, Tobias Harris, Tyrese Maxey and Furkan Korkmaz for winning us that game

Within the next 5 years given 25-30 minutes in a rotation Matisse Thybulle will be at least all defensive 1st team player if not a DPOY

Villanova in 9 minutes👀👀👀
