1. That PG defense before Kelly’s last shot has absolutely been called illegal before, there was barely enough time on the clock lmao insane

2. The call that they said was off Oubre out of bounds was terrible but this isnt a foul sorry lol https://i.gyazo.com/1d3fad90c7fd00d0817e857a14e36207.jpg

3. Someone investigate the refs families fanduel and draftkings accounts

4. Btw nurse is not as advertised he’s been very medicore. And if maxey keeps playing like this I would be hesitant giving him a max

5. I feel sick after that

6. Just end the season now. Relying on embiid, who hasn’t played in months is just nonsense. We’re in a good spot this offseason. Don’t fuck this up Morey

7. The ending to the Sixers game was lol level officiating. Absolutely unmitigated garbage from the refs.

   Like…questioning the integrity of the game-officiating.

   🗑️

8. Oubre is a bonehead AND those last two possessions were clear blocking fouls. It’s not an either or

9. PG jumped from point A to point B god I’m so frustrated. We do that shit it’s called 11 times out of 10 (one extra time for when we actually go up clean but it’s called a foul)

10. That was fucking horrific. Those refs were terrible and Kelly Oubre is a dumbass for putting himself in that position where they could call that cheap foul on him. There was zero chance he was going to block Kawhi’s shot.

11. If you think this game was fixed, you at least need to factor Kelly into the conspiracy.

12. Sponsored by FanDuel

13. Harris didn’t deserve the last shot, did nothing the past few minutes. Tell him to insert himself into the offense and shoot the ball. He can think about not getting the ball

14. Kawhi and PG both get those calls at the end of that game. That was bullshit

15. Starting to make sense now why Oubre is on his 5th team.

16. It blows my mind that for WEEKS the opposing team strategy is aggressively double Tyrese and other than Batum, not a single person can make good reads on a 4 vs 3. We should be getting layups or wide open 3s literally every time down.

17. All I can say is every time Harden had the ball I got my section to boo so I did my part

18. Would we have better chances of winning these ref decided games if our players starting wearing lakers, Celtics or heat jerseys?

19. I had $20 to win $377 with the nets, hornets, and sixers. Why?!!!!!! 😭

20. Refs may have missed calls but why is Oubre trying to drive on kawhi (one of the best defenders of all time)

21. Anyone blaming anything other than the team crumbling has an Oubre level of intelligence.

22. I can think of three games off the top of my head where the refs shafted us to either straight up hand the other team the game or hand them all the momentum: this game, the first bucks game of the season, and the previous bucks game. I don’t think we have been the beneficiaries of terrible officiating ONE TIME. Funny that we have also been the underdogs in each of those games (we’ll definitely the two without embiid, but I think also the first game against the bucks)… Like maybe I’m being dramatic bc I know everyone says this shit to some extent but why does it feel like the nba as a product is becoming less and less watchable

23. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

    Go Phillies

24. Oubre lost that game with an assist from nurse

25. Not this sub finally realizing why Oubre is a career journeyman.

26. looks like all the smooth brains have logged on, lmao

27. I wanna know why Oubre fouled Kawhi when Kawhi had free lane for the layup. I get going for the block if you can get the ball but in that play there’s no way he was getting that. If he let Kawhi score it would’ve been a tie game with the shot clock off

28. Refs aside, Maxey playing 44 minutes is just brutal man. I would love literally anyone else to take the pressure off him, maybe he wouldn’t be tripping up and down the court if he could take a break between driving past double teams.

29. I hope Nurse goes off on the refs. Like directly accuses them of being in bed with Draftkings, etc. worth the fines. Yes, Oubre made dumb plays. But the call were horrendous and obviously biased at the end of the game. I’m really starting to hate the NBA.

30. Why is Harris our rim defender at the end of the game?

31. Oubre sold hard in the last minute.

32. Oubre misses a lot of dunks but I don’t care, he at least has the ability to drive past his defender on occasion.

    Much better to watch than Tobi dribbling in the same spot for 8 seconds before passing off a hot potato.

33. oubre makes some really bad choices at times. that ending was GROSS. but then i also think about how the sixers would be even worse and probably out of the playoffs completely without him trying to step up and be the #2 guy night to night until embiid is back. just a bad situation all around without joel

34. Sucks that Nico and Hields clutch buckets gonna go unrecognized now, both stepped up today

35. oubre did get a step on kawhi, kawhi just rode him off his path with his left arm, technically a foul but i dont think that should be called at end of game so that’s ok. But Oubre could have got the left hand layup off I think instead of trying to two hand it there

36. Another 44 minute game for Maxey.

    For everyone saying that he was bad/passive at the end, well, I think that might’ve something to do with it.

    Played 44 minutes in the game in LA too.

    Get well soon De’Anthony.

37. Should’ve known we were never going to win that game. Automatic loss whenever we have good bell ringers.

38. Oubre made some bad plays but he also got screwed over by bad calls, multiple things can be true. He’s a high variance player on the minimum trying to carry our offense when maxey gets double teamed. It’s not a great situation for the sixers.

    Yea they should have been able to hold onto this game but shit like this can happen when you rely heavily on a player like Oubre on top of the refs going smooth brain on a couple important calls.

    Also I don’t think Nurse and Oubre were overly mad about the final play, it was prolly just build up from everything else

39. Well that’s fucking annoying

40. I think we all agree Tobias needs to pay the fines for Oubre.

41. Hope people don’t turn on Kelly because of this, he made some stupid ass plays, but if the foul was rightfully called his play wouldn’t be an issue anyway

    Hield showed out today really wanna see him play like this from now on

42. Can someone in the “PG went straight up” camp explain to me like I’m 5? I see him with feet not parallel before jumping, initiating contact with his hip/right leg before Oubre even jumps, and landing in a different spot.

43. sad

44. I had to drive home so took me a bit but my God that was the worst display of officiating I’ve seen in person ever. I hate playing blame the refs we had some rough turnovers but wow, we all clear as day in the arena seen George foul Oubre. This was an important game for seeding and the nba ought to be ashamed of themselves for that shit product they had on display tonight. 

    We don’t need 8 v 5, we already are handicapped enough good lord.
