So well said. But the problem is, they don’t think they’re losing to a better team. They honestly think like most of this board that philly is a loser team who picked up loser Harden and that Embiid will be a career loser. Mark my words this will par for the course for every single series they play in. The same poll you saw before the Raptors series, you will see against miami and if they win that against whoever they go against in the ECF. They will also be getting trashed before a single game of those series are played just like it was here and if they win those series too, the goalposts will move to refs refs refs. Better get used to it…
Yup. I have been around RealGM for a long time and a lot of GB posters like to drink the Sixers Haterade. I also think there is the same dynamic going on with the Raptors fanbase on the GB - which include some of the most ridiculous whiners I have EVER seen on a internet sports forum - and the incessant Jokic fanboys who flood the zone with God-worship of the dude. Fortunately, as the Nuggets look AGAIN like an early exit, perhaps some of those fanboys will show a little humility on the GB as their hero gets his MVP while sitting on a couch.
But I digress.
Philly fans know what it is like to be hated by fanbases of other teams. What it is like to not get respect from the national media. And that's OK. As Malcolm Jenkins said during the Eagles Super Bowl run in 2017-18:
"We all we got. We all we need."
Funny criticizing Jokic for an early exit when Embiid never made it out the 2nd round
i am not criticizing Jokic (he is great). I am criticizing his fanboys.
