No matter how many times I watch it, every time I see that shot bounce, bounce, bounce and bounce into the rim, it just brings a smile to my face. I don’t think I will ever get tired of watching that shot bounce in. Man. I love the raptors.

it's been 24 hours and I'm still hyped. One of the best, if not the best shots in basketball history. It's only registering now for me, just insane...

I really disliked Embiid but somehow seeing him cry after the game like that didn't give me any satisfaction. The big guy obviously has a big heart to match.

The same can't be said about Simmons who simply gave up on the play and couldn't even be bothered to contest Kawhi's shot. 76ers should build around Embiid only and get rid of Simmons ASAP.

Simmons has to be my least favorite player. It was game 7 and he looked like he was giving zero effort rebounding the ball and closing out. And that's not an exaggeration.

He would literally stand there and watch his man rebound the ball, and then watch Kawhi take an uncontested 3 pointer without even flinching.

Simmons has really **** body language. It doesn’t help that he hasn’t improved a damn since his rookie year. I mean cheering for a guy like Siakam than seeing a guy like Simmons who has a much better starting platform for his pro career and he really hasn’t take advantage of it. I guess this is what happens when you’re told you’re the next Lebron and you buy in on your own hype, without actually having Lebrons will.

Yeah, I don't like Embiid, but at least you can't question his heart.

I love Embiid. Most entertaining player in the league. Super talented. Been cheering for him since his Jayhawks days.
His problem is his diet and work ethic. He has so much potential but his unhealthy lifestyle choices have affected his durability quite a bit already in his career.
He's still young, hopefully he can get it together. He definitely has MVP potential.

I said this before but if Philly had won, I would've cheered for them to come out of the East.
I'm a fan of a lot of their players.

Watch that old man Sixers fan during the entire sequence of this video

That old guy annoyed me ever since he got into it with Lowry in Philly. Now he gets to go back home and rest up until next year!

I didn't realize Uncle Dennis was sitting just a few seats beside that old annoying Sixers fan. You can see the old man
turn around in shambles when it goes in then Uncle Dennis starts jumping up and down like an 8 year old lol

You can kind of see that Embiid's personality is kind of a defensive mechanism. He isn't the person he tries to portray himself as. He left his all on the court in game 7 while playing on one leg.

Simmons is from the school of LeBron James, where stats are everything. He won't do anything that will hurt his stats. You could kind of tell when LeBron got in his ear that he wasn't going to be as good as he could be.

There are so many things to look for as that shots going in... the players reactions, crowd reaction, the old sixers fan, uncle dennis jumping around, joel with his hands on his head as he realizes what's happened, Tobias hanging around as the rest of his teammates are walking off thinking there'll be a review, kyle grabbing the game ball as he goes over to swarm kawhi, gasol hands up walking away. I watched it atleast 10 more times this morning as I got in to work. Amazing time to be a raps fan.
