Yeah I don't get people blaming Embiid here, you shouldn't expect your superstar to score more than 0 points in the 4th quarter, that's the job of Oubre and Payne.

yet here comes the clown.



So he gets no blame? I sympathise but whats the point of a superstar if he isnt going to score zero in the fourth quarter. Look at Brunson! I mean of course they are going to struggle when he is off the court Paul Reed blows. Embiid is the straw that stirs the drink they cant win with him having 1 point fourth quarters. It doenst make people clowns for pointing that out. How is that four steraight win predictipn working for him? Crap like that doesnt help either.


We shouldn't ask Embiid to score more than 0 points in 4th quarter, that's up to the other players.

Oh no, you should expect the centerpiece of your team and a league MVP to score 0 points in the fourth quarter of a must win game when the team is behind.

That was foul on Embiid. But better that they didn't call it.

The team doesn’t have a mentality to be analyzed? Are they devoid of any kind of mentality?

Embarrassing how 38-year-old Lowry has more heart and energy than all the other players together. He deserves another year here.

As usual. It’ll be interesting to see what he has to say about his proclamation that the Sixers are the better team and will win the series. At this point that accomplished nothing but galvanizing the opposing team and getting the Sixers beaten.

He played the entire second half because the team falls apart without him.

Its clown behavior because Ferry only shows up to peddle his bull when the team is losing....whether intentional or not it reeks of trolling. People here are already on edge because the team is losing; we don't need some douche canoe coming into the thread to post the same psychobabble "i am so smart and I know it all" **** every single time. Its annoying as **** and its the same **** as Bum's constant trolling. More so because if we somehow pulled this **** off, he'd take credit for it on some "see he had the empotional maturity this time for real" despite it probably being a normal Biid game lol.

I don't even fully dissagree either. Biid has to be a better leader and take charge and all that. I also don't think we can run EVERYTHING through Biid...don't think he can handle that role. But its not something we need to hear THE VERY moment things go south every time from teh same dudes.

They also run plays, have strengths and more factors than just mentality dude.

Your predictions about mentalitiy kings have been wrong every season, don't foul yourself or us in the process.

The only reason you discuss mentality is because you cannot distinguish a PnR from a DHO

The fact of the matter is Embiid had an awful fourth quarter and it was a large part with why they lost game. It honestly happens a lot with him bad performance late in pivotal playoff games. Its also true its not the only reason they lost the game this supporting cast sucks. But Im old school when the best player fails late in a close game he is going to have to shoulder a lot of the blame. You dont have to agree with me. I love Embiid in a lot of ways. He just cant be the leader of a team by himself he is too immature and prone to coming up short in a big game. The closest we came to the ECF was a team with Butler and Redick two leaders. Of course that was a more talented team but also we lost by a small margin to the Champions this Knicks team is not that good but they play hard and smart. They crushed us on the board despite being small outside of there centers so you shouldnt need the talent of the 2019 Sixers not to lose in 5 games which looks like the likely outcome now.
