    That was some of the best individual defense you'll see the other night. If only Thybulle can develop that 3 point shot....

    Keep it going tonight

    Bulls Pistons game postponed because of Covid. Yet the Sixers went weeks with most of their starting lineup out and the NBA didn't seem to care much about it...

    He is good, but it certainly helped that the Celts were without Horford and Timelord, leaving Enes Kanter-Freedom and an array of smurfs tasked with guarding Embiid.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    Nine million bucks is what Ben's lost so far with tonight's game. What a fucking fool.

    Anyone else see the stat the other day that Embiid is 1 for 29 from the field in his career in the last five seconds of a game when having a chance to tie or take the lead? 1 for freaking 29. I knew it wasn’t great but holy fuck balks Batman.  He’s funny though so I guess it’s ok

    It’s almost as though it’s nearly impossible to succeed in those situations if you’re running through the post. I’m pretty sure everyone is very aware that the Sixers need a closer.

    He’s funny though? Yeah. 

    He’s one of the most efficient scorers in NBA history though? Yeah. 

    He leads the NBA in clutch time points though? Yeah. 

    He’s dragging a scrub team to the playoffs though? Yeah. 

    He just reached 7,000 points in the same amount of games that it took Iverson, but on about 3.2 million fewer shots though? Yeah.

    He literally leads the league in pts per game in clutch situations. But yeah, he's funny. That is why we like him. Ugh. Casual Sixers fans are the worst.

    “Casual” is to kind of an adjective. That just implies that you don’t pay attention. Picking and choosing which things to comment about in a sad attempt to grasp at straws because you need to find SOMETHING that doesn’t completely discredit your opinion on something that happened years ago is something entirely different. I’m not sure if there is an adjective for that.

    I can say that I personally held the opinion for a few years that Ben Simmons was treated too harshly and Embiid was over praised and under criticized. I am more than happy to admit that, after watching more basketball in this modern era and realizing how amazing Embiid is, I was a complete idiot, and that my former opinion was very dumb. 

    Some people just don’t have the equipment to admit that.

    I saw a stat that I thought was interesting ajnd posted it.   I made no comment other than to say I knew it wasn't great but didn't think it was that bad. Never once said he wasn't a great player.   But hey some made up stat says he's clutch so I guess the 1-29 means nothing.

    The guy is one of the greatest Sixers ever and some people just choose hate on him for some strange reason.

    Just enjoy the greatness. Jeez!

    LOL! You’re taking words out of your own mouth. You’re saying “that’s all I was saying” when that’s not all that you were saying. You threw in that bullshit about him being funny. Even in this very comment you had to say “made up stat”. You can’t just say “he’s a great player but I thought that stat was jarring”. You have to throw in extra nonsense.

    tough crowd.  And sorry if I think a stat that says a guys who is 1-29 in the last 5 seconds during his career to win or tie is one of the most clutch players is a bogus stat.   Please have the lords of this thread forgive my sins.
