[EC First Round] (1)Philadelphia vs. (8)Washington

Like clockwork. Morey can’t keep his stars healthy in the playoffs

 

smh.. wow.

 

Embiid plays a bit too reckless at times IMO…this dude is so fragile, yet is always falling on the floor or trying high risk block attempts or dunks in traffic

like this for example



this guy is always on the floor

 

It's going to be funny watching the 76ers get eliminated by Trae and Atl in round 2. Led by Simmons lol

 

its probably not as serious as it sounds as he is being listed day to day. i expect they will still be able to beat washington, but the hawks could be interesting if he misses some games there.

 

how fast the modern game is tough on bigs like nurkic, Dwight, davis and embiid. These big guys are getting injured from how fast the game is today. Even capela had injuries with us. Jokic seems like the only durable center in the game but he paces himself really well and isn’t an athletic freak

 

Jokic is slow and unathletic. You seldom see him sprinting down the court or going hard to dunk or block. That may be a blessing in disguise for a big man these days.

 

Yeah, as those sloths develop smarts and apply it accordingly.

 

@HP3
they tanked 5 years straight for this?

and they were the pretenders even years after the tank job....not even close to being a true contender

 

Washington smelling blood

 

I've been saying it for years Embiid plays way too reckless for his size, but hey it just made this series a million times more interesting.

 

Is it actually an advantage for the sixers to take this to 6-7 and allow for Embiid return?

Also, Daryl saw this movie before with Yao. He knows how it ends. Either he moves on or rolls the dice by making a crazy trade to go for it next year.

Look for a strong statement that Embiid is not going anywhere this off-season in any event.

 

Hoping Embid makes it back healthy. I want to watch a healthy Sixers vs Bucks/Nets. Furthermore my preferred Finals matchups are Nuggets vs Sixers ( old school battle of the big men! ) or Lakers vs Nets and both are looking shaky.

 

If I’m doc I play Ben Simmons at center and go super small with Tobias Harris at the 4

 

As much I hate the brick freak, gotta admit that was an insane block

 

How do you have three players score 20+, the opposing team plays without their best player and you still get blown out? Sheesh.

 

Pfft, and people said Curry couldn't carry his team in the playoffs.
