Biggest Reasons
1. Tony Parker
2. Roookie Bigs couldnt hit a shot if their life depended on it
How is it possible Brand leaves so many open 10 foot jumpers so short? We need a big upgrade at PF or C.
To be fair, he does have that thumb injury…

Poor shooting… even when we got good shots.

Biggest reason.
Poor defense (death by pick n roll). Poor showing by the rookies. Bad calls at the worst times. Need to get to the FT line more (what else is new?). Need to make FTs when at line.
watching the post-game show…
We got owned by Andre Miller, Deron Williams, and now Tony Parker.

At least 2 of those make sense.

Yeah, well, Tony Parker is still divorced and French.
Who else is going to the game on Friday? I’ll be there

No, she isn’t the reason we lost. I’ve disliked her in every game I’ve seen her officiate since she started in the league.
She’s not the reason we lost, but I’d rather have her never officiate a Sixers game ever again.

Doug Collins respectfully declined to answer questions about why they didn't get to the FT line more.

He’s pissed off at the lack of calls and didn’t feel like picking up a $5,000 fine. Eskin tried to bait him into blaming the refs, he didn’t bite.

Good for him. There are more things wrong then how the ref called the game.

The lack of FTs is not 100% on the refs. It’s settling for jumpers.

i agree alot
it is most def not 100% you are right and we are not very good at getting to the line but consistency is what I look for in refereeing and although we didn’t deserve 26 FTs. I can tell you we deserved more than 11.
Agree. I would like him to specifically address plays involving BOSS and Jruth shooting a long two with 16 seconds or more on the shot clock. He literally has a videographic memory. Tonight, he didn’t want to answer the question but I’d like to see it answered during tomorrow’s shootaround.

I tweeted to Adam Aron to start complaining about the refs. I suggest you all do the same

He would probably get a fine.
Some guy at PSU Hershey Med Center just discovered a virus that eats cancer. Where were the CNN trucks for that? THON will probably break $10 mil this year. Put that on "Outside the Lines".
I know

Miami also lost tonight to Orlando. No big deal.

Lou Williams 20 shots?
I don’t I like seeing that in the box score. And also how come he wasn’t playing Meeks? When your down don’t you want 3-pt shooters out there?

Tony Parker’s 37 points are the most vs. Sixers at the Wells Fargo Center since Mike Bibby had 44 on Jan. 24, 2006

I blame Russel Westbrook
If he wasnt such an arrogant, disrespectful little punk then TP wouldn’t have dropped 42 on the Thunder and would have never remembered that he has the ability to do these things.

Thinking outside of the box. I like it.

For what it's worth
It’s still awesome expecting to win a lot of games. Haven’t felt like this in a looooong time

The Spurs are a real good team, better than I thought and better than the Sixers. Their defense was more effective than ours, and their offense was better as well. It’s rare that all of our players are having off nights, too many were too bad tonight, that no matter what Doug did, nothing worked well enough.
The Sixers got outworked tonight, that’s very unusual.
