Guys, lets stop the emotional outrage and just take some time off

We’re all emotional right now.
We’re not thinking clearly.

There’s no point in talking offseason when a lot of things are unresolved.

Every post we make now is just entertainment to the lurkers.

See you guys when this thing cools off

I thank each and everyone for keeping me company for this 2022-2023 season.
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

Those weirdos need to get a life. This team hasn't gotten out the second round in 20 years. You'd think this team won a championship every year with how people are quick to pile on them

My opinion on this team hasn't really changed since they finished behind Milwaukee and Boston and therefore didnt have homefield advantage. I did hold out hope that maybe they could beat those teams in the playoffs but maybe a 1 in 3 chance. Im just bored with this team. They arent good enough to win a title and not likely to be any time soon.

To be fair, I think the Celtics got cute with their rotations. If they started the double big line up from G1, we would have got swept or gentlemen swept.

This team has no shot at a chip whatsoever. Even If we can get past the Celtics, Embiid/Harden would lay an egg in the future rounds. That's who they are.

That said, management needs to look at the financial costs of blowing up vs running it back. This is the part we do not know about. The current squad still sells the tickets & merchandise vs a lottery team.

I think they could run it back on the following conditions

1. Doc gone
2. Harden signed to a cheaper deal
3. Tobi swapped for a couple of better wings. (Dude outplayed both Embiid and Harden today which is sad)

Sports are lame.

I'm not emotional in the least. If it had been a hard fought nail biter that they lost in the last minute, maybe a little. But losing the way they did removes any emotion from the equation.
