@therealmikekb One of the guttiest performances in sixers playoff history

All things considered, this might have been the best playoff performance of Joel Embiid’s career.

@JoshReynolds24 There needs to be some kind of organized thing in next day to make him FEEL it Thursday. Like loudest Philly ovation ever. All night too
English
There’s NOTHING anyone will ever be able to tell me that will make me hate Joel Embiid. Not a single thing. The dude has given everything, putting his body on the line over & over & over for the Sixers, none bigger than tonight. Just the definition of a gut check. Literally. WOW.

@Schultz215Dan @TommyKelly44 @SportsRadioWIP That’s this year Celtics…. How were the pacers without Halliburton? That’s the norm
English
English
@Schultz215Dan @TommyKelly44 @SportsRadioWIP Uhhh, yes….
Celtics this year was an extreme abberation.
English
@Justin0403j @TommyKelly44 @SportsRadioWIP Do other teams struggle this much without their best player?
English
@RBPhillyTake They didn’t even try to utilize grimes during the regular season, you don’t think he can’t do what Payton does? Grimes was doing it last year. This sixers team hasn’t relied on their bench for years
English
@sippinondat @sixerskevin @therealmikekb I mean, Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum happen to be 2 pretty good players. Good coaching there, but not the difference between these teams. Money dished out to max players is
English
@Justin0403j @sixerskevin @therealmikekb All that “talent” they have is in-house development by Mazulla and his staff. That’s coaching.
English
That seat under Nick Nurse should be feeling very hot.
English
@emgoatfinnacook @sixerskevin @therealmikekb Yep! I love embiid more than anyone and I just wonder if he was healthy enough this year to trade him with clippers pick to small market team with no shot of ever getting a superstar for expiring contract.
English
@Justin0403j @sixerskevin @therealmikekb They don't want to hear facts.
They want to hear how the Sixers run the East and NEXT YEAR a healthy Embiid gOn Be A pRoBlEM
again
English
@Schultz215Dan @TommyKelly44 @SportsRadioWIP What’s all on coaching? Having your star player available under 50 percent of games and other max player available about the same?
English
English
@Tjonesonthenba Although that’s accurate, what could they honestly do in near future to close gap? Any logical person will most likely say very little
English
In a preverse way, I think this is good for the Sixers. The Celtics are showing them just how far away they are. There isn't going to be any guesswork at the end of this series
English
@sixerskevin @therealmikekb I mean, look at the talent difference on the court though
English
@therealmikekb He cannot survive this and neither should Morey. Outcoached is an understatement
English
@Tjonesonthenba As much as I love embiid, is there ANY chance there’s a taker in offseason? They need to build with the guards and get continuity there
English
Welp. The Celtics are running the Sixers off the floor......this is ugly
English
Another reminder that he isn’t “soft”. Say what you want about Joel Embiid, but people who call him soft haven’t been paying attention
Philadelphia 76ers@sixers
Joel Embiid is AVAILABLE.
English
@therealmikekb One day I hope he can walk in the arena as a player or retired and have people truly show him appreciation he deserves. Guy is unbelievable
English
Extremely impressive for Embiid to play for the #sixers just over 2 weeks out from an appendectomy. His toughness can’t be questioned.
English
@JoshReynolds24 I thought about that. If you win the 7/8 game, would nice rule be being able to pick your team? Would be fun storyline
English
I get you obviously win your play-in game to secure a playoff spot, but MAN it would have been nice for the Sixers to matchup with Detroit instead of Boston… ESPECIALLY with Embiid out. Woulda, coulda, shoulda… But dammit this is brutal to see lol
ESPN Insights@ESPNInsights
Early in the 4th quarter, the Pistons have not held a lead Sunday vs Orlando. If that holds, it would be the 1st time in the play-by-play era (since 1997-98) that a 1-seed did not lead at any point in their playoff opener. 1-seeds have gone a full playoff game without leading REGARDLESS of series game number four times in that span, most recently Chicago in 2011 (Game 4 1st round vs IND)
English
@Tjonesonthenba I said that after about 2 mins. Looked like a college game between big team and division 2 team. Couldn’t even pinpoint it, but game play just looked odd
English
So, after one quarter, the Boston Celtics are giving the Sixers belt......The score is 33-18....the disparity in the quality of play is larger than even that....Pretty much every bad thing the Sixers typically do, they've done so far. A team like Boston will feast on that
English
@Ky_Carlin Tobi was nothing but a pro here. No reason to boo him. He wasn’t worth his contract the day they signed him. Anyone booing him would put pen to paper too.
English
I have been screaming this for the last 2 years lol zero reason to hate Harris because of his contract. The boos make no sense.
Omari Sankofa II@omarisankofa
Tobias averaged 18/7/3 on 49/37/86 splits in Philly. His numbers were good. Hating players because of their contracts has never made sense
English
He hasn’t scored yet, but Porter Martone looks pretty damn good.
English
@FollowThisSmell @Devan_Kaney Without sounding dramatic at game 3, seriously though, what does he do? What young player hasn’t gotten better under his tenure? I’ve always wondered the appeal.
English
@Devan_Kaney what exactly does Kevin Long do to remain employed?
