There's no excuse to have poor effort/intensity in a game 7. Just accept they don't have what it takes. Not everyone is cut out to win a championship. If they just pass it off as not our year or something like that, it means they DGAF as they cash in millions regardless if they win or lose.

Wow what a POS. I didn’t think he would have the balls to blame his teammates yet again, but he did. How can anyone defend this big baby?

Well that is true MVP leadership and an MVP type response after the game he had.

And he took 10 more shots than Tatum.

Hats off to the sixers, I thought my Celtics were going to roll them but they took the C’s right to the brink and it took an all time performance by Tatum to finally put them down.

Embiid can train as hard as he wants to be play like Kobe, but he will never have Kobes heart. Mamba won't go out like this in game 7

He should share his mvp award with his team-mates if that's a team sport.

He should share the MVP award with Perkins and the ESPN puppet “journalists” that initiated the political smear campaign.

Embiid and Harden a monster 8-29 24 points, 14 rbs, 8 ast and 9 turnovers.

Tatum-51, 13 and 5.

Clearly the other dudes fault. At least when the Bucks collapse Giannis is not tossing teammates under the bus

Exactly right. A true leader will take the fault all on themselves when they lose but will credit teammates when they win. It is a team sport but you got a max contract for a reason.

Awesome Tatum and excellent defensive game from the whole Boston team, a well deserved win.

Part of me was hoping for a Harden redemption game, but he really disappointed me. Shooting poorly is one thing, but being scared to shoot is much worse when your role is to be one of the main scorers. On so many of his drives he was in a good position to attempt a shot but instead kicked it out for another brick from 3 even when it became clear his teammates were shooting poorly. And some of his turnovers were just inexcusable.

Embiid was pretty terrible on both ends. You can't have such a game as the MVP even if you aren't 100%.

So what's the deal? Was the game fixed or what?


I mean what game were you watching? It was clear as day that Eric Lewis made Embiid and Harden choke and not be able to score to save their lives.


They were practically shooting for Tatum

I feel like Harden is gone. Goes back to the Rockets where there is zero expectations.

WOW. Bro, you didn't SHOW UP!!! You SHRANK when the challenge got tough. You may be 7' tall when the game started but you SHRANK to 3" by the end of the game.

This is your MVP. Most Vocal POS.

I wish people would realize that caring about losing is what separates the winners from the losers. They are all making millions. The guys that live and breathe basketball and leave it all on the court are usually the all time greats with titles.

The difference between Kobe Bryant vs. say 'Melo. 'Melo had more natural talent than Kobe imo, but Kobe put in loads more work than any of his peers and it showed in what he was able to accomplish as a basketball player.

Not Embiid's biggest fan but I am not going to pile on because he's obviously crocked

Harden meanwhile .....
