No doubt.

Richaun is gonna have a helluva season

the dude (gray hair, glasses) above mr. double bird is jack mccaffery, legend of delco sports. thats where i sit when i cover sixers game...in between real reporters d bodner and tom moore -- both nice dudes

[PhillyPhreak54]

Jack Mac...does he still do shifts on the people's station?

You covering any this year?

[MDS]

i think he does some wack ass station in bucks county or something

i imagine ill get a game here or there with their staffing issues being what they are but theres no guarantee and the schedule is set week to week...so who knows

[Sgt PSN]

The difference in energy from the crowd when Embiid is on the floor vs off is pretty nuts. Crowd gives 0 fargs when he's on the bench.

Nice 3.

What a zesty foul call

I used to enjoy his shows on WIP

I didn't realize they put you guys behind the baskets I thought all press was center court

[MDS]

they havent been on center court for a while....why give the good seats away for free when you charge a grand+ for them

certain set ups do put them center court (ncaas) but the nba long ago smartly decided to give the people the best seats

[phattymatty]

It won't last but it feels so good to have players that can make shots.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Huh yeah I just assumed they all sat at the scorers table and behind

Jasner the goat had a seat there. Was that bc he was a legend?

[MDS]

in that era they didnt have fans next to the players courtside, so they had a tad extra room and goat jasner was grandfathered into that spot or just granted it because hes jasner

now only essential personnel are courtside...even zumoff is a few rows above

[SD]

Sauce is on fire tonight

[PhillyPhreak54]

Yeah Sauce has played well

[Eagles_Legendz]

Watching how fun this already is makes me even angrier Simmons got hurt.

[MDS]

so joel embiid might wind up being more beloved than AI
