@SpikeEskin Harris just probably doesn’t want to have two guys on the payroll who no longer work for the team. It’s always dollar and cents with him.

Already saying the coach is staying when you're trying to hire a new GM is classic dumb Sixers. If the new person wants to keep him, great.
If you'll remember they hired Rivers before Morey as well.
Silly typical stuff.

Head coach Nick Nurse will continue in his role into a fourth season with the 76ers, sources tell ESPN. Four-time NBA championship architect Bob Myers, the president of sports for Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment, will be tasked to lead the search for the new head executive for the 76ers and he will oversee the franchise's basketball department in the interim.

@RealGlenMacnow Paul Jolovitz literally blocked me today because I said although Morey has done a bad job, Harris was also to blame for hamstringing him by concerning himself more with the luxury tax over getting a winning roster.
English
I haven’t abhorred ownership of a local franchise this much since Norman Braman took his carpetbag and skipped town.

“All teams under the Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment umbrella regularly collaborate, and the Sixers and Commanders held a meeting about how to approach the second night of this year’s NBA Draft, according to one source with knowledge of those discussions. Philadelphia is slated to pick at No. 41 on Thursday night.”

@REllisSports @SportsRadioWIP I was disgusted at the lack of energy, effort & urgency by this team. Also, I get that this is the new NBA that frowns on physicality but how a Knicks player didn’t end up on their ass when they were embarrassing you on your home court made me hate this team even more. No heart.
English
@jollywipradio I agree that Morey has to go too. No way Harris who avoided the luxury tax to prevent us from getting better will continue to pay for a GM who’s still under contract and fire him. You’re blocking me because I think Harris is also to blame. Whatever…
English
When are we going to stop obsessing about silly conversations about what fans get into what building, ripping KAT because we don’t like him, and turn our collective fan intelligence on ourselves. Fire Daryl Morey!!! The rest is just silly.
English
@jollywipradio A fool? Really? You think Harris is a good owner? I agreed that Morey sucks, but look at the Knicks payroll compared to the Sixers. They’re in the luxury tax. As are the Cavs, TWolves & Lakers. You need to spend in this league.
English
@TyJohnsonNews 100% accurate but they can’t come out with that lack of effort & urgency in an elimination game on their home court. It’s like letting someone in your house to bang your girl while you watch. They should have put someone on the ground once it got out of hand. Have some pride!
English
While the Sixers ducked the luxury tax. The Knicks have a $44,436,592 penalty. Sometimes you just get what you pay for. Morey is not the main one to blame
English
@SpikeEskin @PHLSixersNation And deservedly so. It’s not that they lost. It’s how they played with no urgency or heart. They didn’t lay down vs the Celtics like they did here. Disgraceful on your home court in an elimination game. We didn’t feel this way about the Flyers team last night. They had heart.
English
Only the Sixers could come back from 3-1 to beat the 55 win Celtics in the best playoff win of the era and then have people absolutely hate them a week later.
English
@TommyKelly44 @SportsRadioWIP If these Sixers players don’t start hard fouling & putting Knicks players on their asses, I’ll have no respect for them. They’re not winning this game. Have some pride. Start a fight. It’s like letting guys in their houses to bang their girls while they watch. Cowards & losers.
English
@SpikeEskin I wonder if the Sixers players let guys come in their houses and bang their girls while they watch. This is kinda like what they’re doing here. If I don’t see them put Knicks players on their ass I’ll have no respect for them. They’re losing anyway so why not?
English
Knicks are up 43-24 on the Sixers after one quarter. Believe it or not, the score is closer than it has felt watching it.
English
@KyleNeubeck @_devongivens @PHLY_Sports Can’t even watch today. I was at the game in ‘89 when the Knicks swept us and brought the broom out on our own court. Still traumatized by that. I can’t watch them do that again. I’ll watch game 5 if we win but refuse to watch this team sweep us at home.
English
New @PHLY_Sports
The Sixers are down 3-0 to the Knicks and look spent, with months of decisions catching up with them at once.
Where do they go from here?

@SpikeEskin Here’s an idea the NBA should add a flailing and flopping for fouls contest during All Star week. It’s really become an art. SGA, Brunson & Joel would be the favorites. I wonder who else would be in and who would win.
English
going to a broadway show is like going to an nba game. No notice at all, they're like "yeah the main guy isn't doing this one. Sorry. Backup is doing it. Same price though. Enjoy the show"
English
@_AngeloCataldi The team isn’t better without Embiid. They just really suck with him as well.
English
The sooner Embiid and George are off this team the better. Maxey was 8-12. He needs to shoot more and take over. 3 Sixers outshot him.
English
@TyJohnsonNews Questioned what? He’s hurt every year. At this point, it doesn’t matter why or how it happened. If nothing else we need to just get his bad luck ass out of here. His injuries are cumulative & he will not get better. He’ll never be healthy enough to bring us a championship.
English
Embiid is clearly playing hurt. Gutting it out, but he’s not there physically. Insane that people (not good people, but people) questioned it
English
@TommyKelly44 @SportsRadioWIP The truth is I don’t know anymore whether it’s the scheme, the players or both. I lean towards we’re just not good enough. We overrate our players. Maxey is a talent but can’t carry a team. Embiid is cooked & his lack of ability to defend the rim kills us. Blow it up.
English
@JClarkNBCS The only way to stop this is for the ushers to throw out Knicks fans for even the minorest infraction. Tix will always be available. The arena has to make it not worthwhile for them to come.
English
Spike Lee and Tracy Morgan, of course, got tickets tonight here in Philly. Sixers fans are booing them already 😂
English
I simply think Kate gets hate because she’s not Zumoff, the same way people give T-Mac shit because he’s not Harry the K.

@Dreskiii_ @JoshReynolds24 I’m not saying it was a great move by Morey. I’m just saying that McCain would not have been this good on the Sixers with the players they have and the schemes they run. Why didn’t he show it when he was here?
English
@nickygee010 @JoshReynolds24 Yea because McCain running dribble hand offs with Embiid wouldn’t be elite. Also, it’s not like the 6ixers need a back up point guard or a knock down three point shooter
English
Jared McCain had 18 points tonight in 18 minutes for the defending NBA Champs…
He was 7/11 from the field, 4/5 from deep & had only 1 turnover. I will always root for him but can’t help but feel absolutely crushed every time he has a great game. Dammit.
English
@CrossingBroad @KyleNeubeck yet I got crushed on the Discord for going after them. Justice! Lol.
