Tobias Harris: Sixers need more mental toughness 

Post#1 » by HotRocks34 » Fri May 13, 2022 2:29 am

Following the series-ending Game 6 loss at home to Miami.

Read on Twitter


One year after the Simmons struggles, and following the blockbuster trade for Harden, Philly again goes out in the second round and faces tough questions in the offseason.

It’s basically everyone except Maxey

Embiid and Harden are terrible leaders. Doc throws everyone under the bus. Team of front runners.

I don't see any great leaders on their team. Someone needs to step up, IMO.

They don't have leadership and that's the reason why they don't have any mental toughness.

Embiid is not a leader. He's more interested in clowning opposing fans.
Harden is not a leader. He's more interested in strip clubs and buffets.
Rivers is not a leader. He's more interested in defending his reputation.
Morey is not a leader. He doesn't even have a concept of what that is as it's not found on a spreadsheet.

There’s not a single leader on this team.

Embiid gets way to high (see, airplanes) when things are good and then when things are bad is just horrible (flopping, throwing everyone under bus, etc.)
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.

They need better conditioning. That series looked like an MMA fight where one guy just drags his opponent into deep waters and eventually finishes him with a whimper of resistance

Butler just eliminated them. Man, if only they could get a hold of a mentally tough guy like that who really cares, I'm sure that they would never let him go...........

Finally, somebody calling out Embiid. Dude has been a staple in Sixers' collapses but always gets a free pass....

Steph is a champion in name and in spirit.

Harden is and has always been a quitter and a loser.

Curry didn't get eliminated last night. If the Warriors get eliminated guaranteed there will be a ton of threads. He's one of the favorite board topics.

steph is a champion because he's been lucky one of the 15 guys on a championship roster with the highest payroll in the league for multiple seasons, in fact no player sees a bigger decline from regular season to playoffs than steph curry according to ben taylor.. zero finals mvps, lets see what he does tommorow with no ja morant again, or are yall gonna blame mike brown again
