I’m taking KD/Kyrie in big games over Embiid/Harden every day of the week.

joel and harden are playoff chokers. kyrie and kd enjoy pressure. 76ers are doomed.
Doncic will be goat. Lauri will be his sidekick.

I know Harden's been better lately, but nobody can tell me dude is back to to superstar form. Superstar Harden could never look like this against the Nets defensive backcourt of Kyrie/Seth/Dragic

I know this is a Simmons in Philly thing for Philly and their fans, but make no mistake, this is also a KD/Irving vs. Harden just as much for the Nets duo.

Y’all talking crap about the Nets after the Celtics game as if they weren’t the hottest team and needed Tatum to score over 50 to secure the W. Did some of you guys forget what KD was doing to the bucks by himself? When he had just Kyrie they were destroying them. KD being the best player on the planet with Kyrie being an elite 2 and if Simmons can be himself then it’s hard seeing anyone in the east beating them.

Embiid’s not going to have the stamina to last in the playoffs. Dont know why Philly doesnt have a legit backup C for him to rest more and I dont trust Harden’s conditioning late in games either anymore.

By the way, anybody seen Tobias Harris?

I wonder if kids watching Giannis and Embiid in todays NBA think running straight over your player is a good way to score/get to the free throw line.

The NBA reward it 80% of the time

All these absurd Embiid FT's have me rooting for Brooklyn but man every time I see Ben Simmons in that stupid Louis Vuitton sweater it makes me want to root for Philly.

I love watching Harden keep failing in these “playoff” like games. You can’t trust him at all in the playoffs

13 FTA in 11 minutes for Embiid. 16 points on 3 made FGs... :eek1:
