No pride, no guts...nothing. I guarantee you the Doc is the post game press conference will say that nobody expected the Sixers to win this series, yada yada yada.

I can't blame Doc on this loss. Embiid is MVP he should have stepped up.

The saddest part to me is in theory we still are Embiid and 4??? Question marks in all other positions.

Won’t blame the big guy if he wants a trade either. In fact it’s better for his career to do that. At some point it’s tine to move on.

From your lips to gods ears. Please, demand a trade Joel. PLEASE.

Tough decision ahead, who to root for? Butler seems the obvious choice, but Miami would definitely lose against Nuggets with the altitude advantage.

Whoever thought trading forHarden was a good idea should never be involved in decision making in sport again.


The issue is Embiid is a playoff choker too along with Ben Simmons. Trade or no trade, can’t get away that choking gene.

The big question is do we re-tool around Maxey/Embiid or rebuild around Maxey?


If I'm Josh Harris or Morey (or whoever the GM is next season), I would give Embiid an ultimatum: either change your game to anchor the defense and rebounding or you're gone.

If he refuses, trade him. Sadly, like Simmons he's had too many enablers surrounding him during his time here and thus may already be too far gone.

Maxey is a tiny shooting guard with great energy. That's it. He's a sixth man of the year, not a franchise player. Trade him while he is seriously overrated.

Trade Embiid, Let Hasrden Walk, Fire Doc, let Harris be the tank commander.

Give Boston credit. They rose to the occasion, we didn't. We clearly fell apart after the Harden flagrant foul. I Fking KNEW that was going to sink us and it did.

Any Sixers fans willing to reconsider trading Embiid and starting over? I got a lot of push back over a week ago.

You will get accused of trolling if you do that, but it's the sensible thing to do, he is just another player in playoffs (and not in a good way).

If Harden leaves we're screwed because we're still capped out.

We cannot re-tool at this point

I don't even know what to type. Start the process over. Man, Elton Brand had Jimmy Butler and let him walk. If you just run back that team you probably win a championship the next season. That's a move that is going to go down in the same light as the the Barkley and Brad Dougherty trades.
