Things I would like to see tonight.

1.  Get Hayward going again. Hayward has looked tired on both ends the last 2 games.  He needs to score 22-24 a night and be the leader. 

2.  Lineup of Melo, Hayward, Bridges, Washington, and Biz against the length of Philly.  At least for a short burst.  All 6'7 and above to build a wall.

3. Better ball pressure by the guards above the free throw line.  Team can't make it easy to feed Embiid.

4. Change the defensive and close out strategy.  Too many times a player is guarding free throw line extended and the corner.  Or a player is slow to cover the corner on rotation.  Memphis killed us last night because of the rotations.

5. Get back to moving the ball. The ball was sticking last night.

Cant just abandon Graham & rozier....they both need to be better

Not abandoning them at all.  But Philly is long and might need to go a little bigger at times tonight.  Embiid, Howard, Simmons, Harris, Green.  Simmons needs to see a wall of 6'7 and taller.  Milton and Curry are in, then match up.

Ball is about to take Grahams Job if he don't break out of this slump.  

Borrego will lose his job if he doesn't figure this our soon.. Lamelo has earned it Graham has not.. Borrego is already on thin ground for not playing Monk and the rookie bigs no minutes..

      Man whether it's the Panthers or the Hornets it's crazy how many foolish talking heads there are in the local media. I just unsubscribed from locked on Hornets. Doug Branson with his cheesy mustache is an absolute clown especially when his partner isn't on. Talking about trading LaMelo because he can't win basketball games by himself with no semblance whatsoever of a legitimate Center. These YouTube personalities will say anything for a damn click.

      Dream big: Imagine this future and tell me how you feel

      I’m hoping for that exact same scenario, two seconds would be big for us. I’d hope for 3 impact players. A WR/DL/DE that can contribute like this current class would be key to our rebuild.

      Forget about Bryce, Dave Canales is who we should be talking about.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      When I look at what I can find, a carryover problem from last season is our receivers are still unable to get enough separation on a consistent basis. Canales is certainly better at scheming them open, like how he sneaked out Thielen for a big play. But then he's also having Thielen running routes he frankly shouldn't be doing anymore. I feel part of the RZ issues is not really having anyone - after trading Diontae - who can make those quick cuts on a short field to give whoever is under center a wider window to throw. We also only have one guy with blazing speed in Thompkins and from what I could see, he's really used more to draw away coverage. I bring this all up because what Canales needs for sustained success - other than QB - is the other receiver pieces we'll be getting in the offseason.  Otherwise, I have to say that Canales isn't as afraid to be aggressive offensively. As others mentioned, still doesn't run the ball enough at times. Finally, I still feel his playcalls still doesn't line up with his mantra of getting rid of the ball within x amount of seconds. Maybe I count too slow. Oh, and I'm glad Canales first game after a bye looked good. I feared he'd be like Ron Rivera where we would fall flat on our faces.
