He does so well but how many times has he come up with the mid-range shot, "too strong" this game? Guy has some talent but refuses to get dirty.

Tough to see the Raptors not getting swept after that. What a dagger to the heart.

Shocking to see the Sixers play so well in OT since mr. Crunch time himself had fouled out.

Don't win a lot in the NBA when your best players aren't playing as your best players. 24 points combined from Siakam and Van Vleet just not gonna get it done. Feel for Precious, he was great all game, but picked a bad time to freeze up.

Philly creates a wide open shot with 1 second left and we just lob it in the air to nobody with our second.

Our offence was terrible all second half and OT.

Raptors hurt themselves. Embiid played really well but bad shots down the stretch really was the undoing. Precious is inexperienced so I don't blame him much. But Siakam has to play better. Should this be the end, I'd have to think this is the end of Siakam in the city. Guy hasn't developed as much as he should have.

People are gonna point to missed free throws, but this is on the Raps not being able to outplay a 76ers squad that didn't even have Harden on the floor. FVV and Siakam struggled in OT

Embiid gets the last laugh. Disgusting

Siakim and Van Fleet remind me of Lowry and Derozan

They are great as your 2nd and 3rd best players but we again need the superstar

So you either trade Siakim + for a superstar or I guess maybe Anunoby?

Or be patient and hope Barnes is super star quality

Will be interesting to see if they are patient for 1 more year or go big game hunting

They have a lot of great parts and battle extremely hard , but we are once again missing “ That Guy”

At this point I think trading Siakam is the way to go. Anunoby can still develop into that hard defender every team needs, but Siakam doesn't have the confidence to go further in his career. Better to have him as part of a package to get a star. Can't watch another year of him as "your guy" when he's clearly not cut out to be.

Embiid is both annoying and can do awe inspiring stuff like that shot he hit to win it. You hate that he did it to your favorite team, but you have to appreciate the skill it takes to get a shot off and hit it like that. 100% net too
