    2005 first round game 7 against Dallas T-Mac and Yao lost by 40. After going up 2-0 by winning two games in Dallas. T-Mac’s stats may have looked good, but he did not play winning basketball. Harden’s overall resume (playoff record included) puts T-Mac to shame, regardless of individual playoff clunkers by Harden.

    They were the lower seed by far Lmfao and comparing that team to Philly who has the mvp and “supposed greatest scorer of all time” Is a grossly disingenuous comparison. Ryan Bowen and Sura were key players on that rox team..


    This is way way worse


    They got outclassed by Tatum who is still a toddler in comparison with respect to experience. James may be the Better player but he’s 10x the quitter tmac ever was

    This 100% I thought I was tripping, could have sworn I saw TMac quit live at least 5 times including getting a season-ending injury without notifying the team.

    I could see Morey letting Harden walk and pushing for a Ja Morant trade using Maxey.

    They probably fire Doc as well. They never seemed to generate decent offense unless someone was having a big game. The Celtics were just making good reads and the ball found the open (who was then able to make a play). Today was the one huge game from the Celtics' best player and the Sixers couldn't even make the game watchable let alone competitive.

    That's the difference between Harden and Tatum. Tatum shot like crap for 3 quarters and he kept on playing and saved the day in the 4th. I said it after Game 6. If Harden was shooting like that, he would have given up already. What happened in Game 7 was exactly my point.

    Probably Tobias fault.



    And Scott Foster’s fault.



    And so obviously someone else’s fault

    This man literally throw Maxey under the proverbial bus? Maxey played really well after a slow start to the series.

    Just saw his press conference. Total lack of accountability on his end.

    I still like him, but he is who he is. Do not sign him.

    Embiid is literally a 7ft tall Harden, bizarre. Even TMac said it was on him.
