I like Embid but the playoff story with him continues. At some point he deserves blame.

Embiid is already cooked.

If you blame him here, you are a troll apparently.

I’m seriously starting to think he needs to see a sports psychologist. This isn’t normal man…but it’s a pattern

It's been ten years. We've been more than patient with him. This is a yearly issue with him.

People will always be sensitive to their franchise player but at some point reality should set in for them. I remember I foolishly said he was better than Joker a few years ago.

Interested in seeing what marketing ploy the sixers will have for the fans next season.

Biid once again playing bad in a crucial game plus the loser body language and trying to make you feel sorry for him because he's hurt/gassed.

I'm getting really really tired of this BS.

He's not a troll because he's critical of Embiid. He's a troll because he constantly trolls.

More dissapointed in Maxey tbh.

He's static, there has been no actions run between him and Joel.

Just bad juju all around

I don't want to watch this team anymore lol



You had to put that bad juju in the air with your damn thread lol...couldn't wait till after we lost.

I kept it in last year and then last year happened.

thought getting out into the open would help lol


Lol who knows, at this point it's beyond repair. If a healthy Jo can't do anything, not sure what we're doing here.

I love Jo

He is the reason I am about to throw up over a **** basketball game

but this is all on him. He wants to take all the shots. He wants to be the whole offense. And whether its his body, mind, god....he just isn't able to be that because in the regular season teams don't sell out to stop you...they do in the playoffs and simply pushing him out and blitzing him has been effective for years and the way to beat that is a different approach...a more secondary one and yes the roster doesn;t allow for that but I also don;t think Biid wants that...he doesn't want to take a step back on offense because he thinks he can just do it...and every year he can't lol. Doesn't make him a pussy, doesn't mean we should trade him, doesn't mean he's actually not good....but every single season he comes back looking to expand his role on offense and it looks insane in the RS but he breaks down and that **** is too easy to game plan against when given time.

the problem is that we won't learn as Morey already expects that just getting 3 guys and a bunch of mid is enough.

i am so buttmad right now lol

getting my tickets to Antarctica ready

Batum and Lowry have been our best guys today

If they lose this game, just rest everybody against the Bulls. Winning the 8th seed game would be utterly pointless.

Offense is much better when there’s movement and not stationary force feeding at Jojo at the FT line area
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

Ok...Smart move by the Heat...Call a timeout. We absolutely cannot give up a three out of this timeout....But....We will.

Because he sees himself in Herro but he had no where the offensive arsenal.

Smart plays by Batum. Until the heat change their defense those shots will be there.
