You're telling me like I don't know this. Not sure why.
It was just funny because he thought he was the rapper and when you say the Hyundai dealership owner its such a contrast. Did I insult you in some way or something?

For what it's worth I didn't see the fan you lads were talking about. Just read the name. I've seen him at plenty of Raps games, just didn't know his name .

It was meant for hay I didn’t know who he was either

Philly fans and embiid are made for each other. Front runners for life.

As soon as things go bad they disappear

I don't care how much a team is reeling, it's just so unlikely.

Just happy this is a series now.

I mean if they could sweep us, why can't we sweep them?

Sixers are soft and stupid, I can totally see us making history and losing up 3-0

Patience ... remember ... this is a rebuilding year ... Scottie and Gary and Precious just got here and aren't going anywhere ... Pascal, OG and Fred are still getting better ... Boucher and Thad are thick like glue. Next year they are going to be a lot better.

1) Harden indeed has nothing to prove anymore. He is trash and he was always trash without his foul baiting and step back Iso 3 working in the playoffs. Sixers giving him the supermax till he is 38 years old will doom their franchise for good.

2) Embiid's biggest problem is not that he is injured once every week. It's his garbage stamina. He played 3 games in the post season and by the end he looked like he just came back from the war. Hell he is having a great 1st half in a random game and by the end of the game he can't even move his feet anymore. What will happen if he ever makes it past the 2nd round? The Raptors kept attacking him tonight not because he is a bad defender but only because they wanted him in the action all the time to spend as much of his energy as possible and be nearly useless in the end.
The playoffs is a marathon and he wastes half his energy in unnecessary trash talking, celebrating and flopping from the 1st game of the playoffs.

3) Nurse is clearly the best coach in the league. The longer the series lasts the harder they make it for the opponent.

4) It's a miracle Doc Rivers still finds good positions as a head coach.

5) With so much booing going on at Phillys games every season the Sixers would be nearly unbeatable with Grayson Allen in their lineups.

The past is the past, we have a huge game 6 in Toronto to push it to seven. A win here is fairly likely. As unbelievable as it is/seems the probability of seeing a game 7 is pretty good!

Such a disadvantage for the raptors that thybulle can't play in toronto

OKAY!!

So no one has ever come back from 3-0 to win a series ... so if it happens now it will be the first time ever .... so maybe it is a new "category of event" ...

Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls ... may I present ...

A BACKSWEEP

to win the final four games of a best of seven

So I'd like someone to please explain to me, how the **** do you play a team that has literally NO point guard on the roster and fail to take advantage of it. How?

Actually there were 2 PGs out there it's just that they're both 6'8" / 235

@GeorgeMarcus is it time for that “Poor Philadelphia” thread yet?

Rivers keeping that extra gear for game 8.

I hope Embiid doesn't permanently injure himself this series for no reason. Even if Toronto loses, I'm generally on the side of players staying healthy.

Post #2459 » by **G R E Y** » Tue Apr 26, 2022 3:27 am

I get why the league doesn't with all the games but I wish the NBA could stagger the games more so that there wouldn't be such overlap. Fans miss a lot of action, especially with the first two night games. You have to keep switching or pick one then miss most of the other.

If there's a gear Doc says there is, he should really try to get it out of his team. 88 points on 38/27 efficiency is brutal.

One of the Raptors announcers said he's now out for the series but should be available if they advance.
