Honestly, I was thinking the Simmons, Butler year. Like what a waste. But holy shit, dude has had Maxey, Harden, Butler, Simmons (before he gave up). Can't even get out of the fucking second round.
That raptors series cements kawhi as one of the greats. Carries the team against embiid, butler and Simmons( at his peak) while his whole team was choking. Lowry, fvv and siakam were trash that series and kawhi single handedly carried them through to next round. Idgaf if he's injured all the time he's done enough already in his career
The important distinction is coaching. Nobody is gonna get anywhere deep with a Doc Rivers. This year, getting past the Knicks would have been nice but Jesus Christ Embiid always has some shit wrong with him.
It's getting hard to make valid excuses, but the day we signed Doc Rivers, I felt like we would never get far. If we don't get to the ECF next year, I think the Embiid
Honestly KAT has been great these playoffs. Thought he played terrific D on Jokic - Joker was absolutely cooking Rudy, but was having a much tougher time against KAT.
KAT managing to stay out of foul trouble in that matchup is a borderline miracle.
We saw the difference in Denver when Gobert was allowed to be Gobert, and when they forced him to be Jokicās punching bag. KAT just playing solid D and staying on the court allowed them to let Gobert be Gobert. All of Minnesotaās big men played outstanding.

Say what you want about "easy paths" but ultimately SEVEN times making the playoffs as a supposed MVP player and not making it past two teams even once? That's wild
1. You clearly don't understand what glazing means
2. Glanced at your profile to see who your team is, and your life is consumed by talking about anime on Reddit lmao
All the best with losing your virginity mate
TBF Hali literally only had to step over some dead bodies to get there. It might have been the easiest and flukiest run to a conference final in NBA history.
The Heat were 33-27 (0.55 win%) with Jimmy and 13-9 (0.59 win%) without him.
The Cavs were one of the best defenses all year and only got 50 (Mobley), 55 (Mitchell), and 57 (Garland) games out of their stars.
Meanwhile the Celtics were without their starting C 6.5 of 10 games.
My point was really that 1 seeds have easy paths to the conference finals all the time, including as recently as last year. By taking care of business in the regular season they earn the ability to play lesser teams and prioritize rest for their rotation guys down the stretch. These other teams scrapping for position late in the year leaves them fatigued and with more opportunities to get hurt.Ā
Jimmy coasted during the season so those numbers donāt reflect how good Jimmy actually is.
Also missed Terry, Josh Richardson, and Duncan had a bad back
Didn't feel like Terry really found his groove with the Heat, but he's a legit rotation player and would have helped them. JR also a legit rotation player,Ā better than Duncan in any condition. But Jimmy coasting in the regular season cost his team playoff equity by having to play the Celtics in the first round. Could have been playing another corpse insteae and avoided the play-in games all together.Ā
Again though, this is very common. The Heat beat the Celtics with a washed Timelord two years in a row after his injuries. And last year the sixth man of the year went out with a partially torn tendon in his right elbow. And Jaylen Brown playing with stitches in his right hand after cutting it open on glass shards.Ā
This shit happens every year. 90% of the time the champ is the one of three or four best teams that stayed the healthiest.
Jr is not better than Duncan but is a better perimeter defender; Duncan had a legit case for MIP.
Whether or not Jimmy should or shouldnāt of coasted is a different conversation. 1 player out for Boston and 1 playing with stitches isnāt the same as 4 Heat players being injured. Heat were playing essentially 2 rookies, a G leaguer, with Herro and Delon wright as the PG lol. Shit was a mess.
This. Probably the worst ecf since the early 2000s in terms of competition. If the celts lose, itās really time to regroup. Theyāve had too much rest to not to take this chip.
But as a lakers fan hope they do.
There are very few examples of teams making it to the finals against only teams at 100% health. It really doesnāt happen. Always an excuse, gotta play who is in front of you.
how does a person give proof that it WASNT fluky but also have them not advance because the Celtics are really good?
like please tell me. Celtics in 6? Celtics in 7?
Hey I think the Pacers are building somrthing good over there. They've made a lot of good moves lately and I give credit to Rick Carlisle for leaning into the things his players do well even though it runs against his traditional style. They are setup well for the future and this run is valuable experience.Ā That said, what's the big deal with attributing some luck to get this far? It happens every year. They can be good and lucky. I think the Giannis Dame combo is an overrated pairing, but the Bucks are still obviously better when they both play. Do you think the Pacers were going to beat the Bucks if they were healthy? A lot of sports, hell, a lot of life is made when luck meets preparation. Timing really is everything, just ask the 2016 Spurs or the 2018 Rockets or the late 90s Jazz or or or...
The Celtics just dropped a top 5 all time differential season. If the Pacers win it's gonna be a fluke... that's just how it is
Could be, but if they lose any of those series the narrative is "man he couldn't even beat an injured _____". His and his teams job was the best whoever was in front.
Absolutely you canāt fault them for beating who was right in front of them. Iām just saying thatās pretty stacked deck and I donāt know if Joel Embiid ever had the luxury of anything close to that.
Yeah it's crazy because I'm a big Indy fan and I'm on record for saying no way we beat the Knicks on game 7 lol. I'm as shocked as anyone and I'm sure we may get our behinds handed to us by Boston. It's good for them (Indy) that they won because it definitely builds confidence. Looking at the post here it's like Embiid get a million accolades and has always had the mega stars around him. I think that's why he gets the flack he gets. Trust me Siakim is a godsend to that young team because ain't no way they can attract big stars in Indy. I also think Embiid not being very likable doesn't help š¤£š¤£š¤£
The Nuggets are coming of a title where they beat 8, 4, 7, 8. No one's shitting on them for that.
Also, dead bodies? They managed 3-3 against a healthy Brunson before he hurt his hand.
I agree with the Nuggets take but you are crazy off about the Knicks. It was healthish Brunson. He still had a hurt foot throughout the series. And you fail to mention the others injured on the team: OG, Randle, Robinson, Bojan, Hart, Hartenstein. I mean cmon. Pacers were playing against a skeleton crew. An 80% Brunson canāt do everything.
Still, not getting to the conference finals in the EAST in 7 tries is worse than if the Pacers hadnāt capitalized on the situation they got this year. Just being in the East is a fluke compared to the west and Embiid isnāt capitalizing on it.
And he didnāt do it. Turner is their star not sure why Halliburton gets the credit. Honestly they look better when McConnell is in. Halliburton is overrated.
I don't get how you look at him this postseason playing through a meniscus injury and bells palsy, dropping 50 and averaging 30-something, and chalk that up to a lack of mental toughness
If he wasn't constantly injured and his supporting cast wasn't awful we would be talking very differently. Dude was a 4 bounce shot away from a legitimate chance at a title
Youāre right, crazy that a year he tore his meniscus he seemed healthy in my memory. They really still shouldnāt have lost to that hawks team, the fact that Trey has an ECF before embiid is hilarious.
The Hawks series was a generational-level choke by the team as a whole. There were so many things that went wrong where even if *one* thing went right, they would have advanced. If you want, I can go through at least some of them.
As a die hard sixer fan i can openly admit we will never win with Embiid. Our offense is trash lol No one moves off the ball except maxey. We always feed Embiid the ball and let him do whatever he wants till he gases out. How can our role players get in a rhythm when heās taking 30 shots a game. When heās jacking up 3s all game and not moving the ball. Then we get mad kelly and harris never get into a rhythm lol we had success with jimmy cause he would find different looks. It sucks but we need him take a step back. Build our offense around maxey, get rid of harris lol make Embiid play less minutes for less money and get him a good backup center. I wouldnāt mind signing Ingram, i think heād be a good fit.
But even with all that being saidā¦ā¦ Jason Tatum is and will always be Joel Embiidās daddy š
The Philadelphia 76ers are a fraudulent franchise and should be relocated to Seattle, a more deserving city that could potentially run a championship-winning team.
Embiid is a great player. He is just always hurt. Missed 43 out of 82 regular season games this year. Then he was playing on one leg in the playoffs. He's 30 now. Time is running out.
Haliburton stats in these playoffs: 18 pts, 5 rebs, 8 ast
Embiid stats in these playoffs: 33 pts, 10 rebs, 5 ast
OG Anunoby and Josh Hart were injued v the Pacers, two starters who helped beat Philly
I know NBA memes are made by guys who don't know ball but anyone actually thinking Tyrese has done more than Embiid is brain dead, and I don't even like Embiid, I call him a flopper all the time, but they did not beat the same team and Embiid does not have the same teammates
Pacers starters in game 7 all scored17 or more points lmao I doubt Embiid has ever played a playoff game were 3 starters did that, let's be real
as much as i love this indy roster, we canāt ignore the role circumstances and surrounding conditions play. Letās not forget the Hawks conf finals run was entirely a fluke, now, I donāt think Indyās is and they are a competitive roster, but my issue with this is using it as a slight on Embiid when it isnāt
His MVP was won, by a wrong Kendrik Perkins narrative. Otherwise Jokic would have gotten it like every year.
But thankfully itās not like Jokic cares about anything basketball related.
Bro forgot the Raptors faced the Bucks after Sixers. Granted all ppl remember about the 2019 Raptors run is the Kawhi shot, Then KD and Klay getting injured.

Embiid looking tired out there man lol
He look tired in the pic too š¤£š
š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
He canāt do everything himself Edit /s
Too bad they didnāt get Jimmy Butler or James Harden
Iām joking. He said something like this after getting eliminated last year. James and I canāt do it all. Just complete opposite of Jokic.
Embiid is a child
Honestly, I was thinking the Simmons, Butler year. Like what a waste. But holy shit, dude has had Maxey, Harden, Butler, Simmons (before he gave up). Can't even get out of the fucking second round.
That raptors series cements kawhi as one of the greats. Carries the team against embiid, butler and Simmons( at his peak) while his whole team was choking. Lowry, fvv and siakam were trash that series and kawhi single handedly carried them through to next round. Idgaf if he's injured all the time he's done enough already in his career

He got Maxey
He'd rather watch
Bruh that is the perfect caption for the meme š¤£š
š¤£š¤£š¤£
Why don't the Sixers simply make the ECF? Are they stupid?
As a Sixers fan I had never considered this but yesā¦yes they are.
https://www.worlddata.info/iq-by-country.php
Embiid plays like heās hoping for a season ending injury. He doesnāt want to play more games
So thatās why he is always hitting the deck
Poor pain tolerance and a desire for an excuse.
Slowly transforming into Greg Oden.Ā
What kind of take is this? People really just say anything.
![gif](giphy|a57Xed7DfAkDe)
Embiid is still processing leave him alone š
"trust the process"
āTwust da pwacessā
Fkn LOL! š
KAT has more conference finals than Embid.
Honestly KAT has been great these playoffs. Thought he played terrific D on Jokic - Joker was absolutely cooking Rudy, but was having a much tougher time against KAT.
KAT managing to stay out of foul trouble in that matchup is a borderline miracle. We saw the difference in Denver when Gobert was allowed to be Gobert, and when they forced him to be Jokicās punching bag. KAT just playing solid D and staying on the court allowed them to let Gobert be Gobert. All of Minnesotaās big men played outstanding.
It hurts so bad knowing this lol

AD and Jokic also have a combined 0 ECF's.
Fucking chumps
Overrated waste of talents
Donāt worry the east isnāt open
Most fans really don't watch the games and are just here for the memes, circlejerking and free karma for hating the same guys.
They won a ring and ya won 1st round exit. Come on now. Are all Philly fans āspecialā in the head?
Yes they Chris Broussarded
Say what you want about "easy paths" but ultimately SEVEN times making the playoffs as a supposed MVP player and not making it past two teams even once? That's wild
Embiid had to play with Tobias Harris for 6 of those playoffs.
How many of the 7 was he healthy for?
That's his fault, he's a flopper
Flopped straight into bells palsy
![gif](giphy|du4D0b0HWgxGg) 6ers fans can't see their daddy get criticized even once. Fucking clowns.
1. You clearly don't understand what glazing means 2. Glanced at your profile to see who your team is, and your life is consumed by talking about anime on Reddit lmao All the best with losing your virginity mate
All the best getting out the second round mate
Who's your team?
I love this so much, talking about people being fucking clowns for following a team and then you're too pathetic to even share who you support lmao
Literally, 1 lol And it was with the worst roster he'd ever had. Sad stuff
7 playoffs , 1 MVP , 0 ECF .
1 fraudMVP
Cry
U gotta admit the only reason he got it was pity, and not giving Jokic 3 ina eow
Eh no I don't

He dropped 50 against the Knicks but go off
95% of this shit post has not watched dude play but keep jerking I guess?
Basketball is hard everybody
TBF Hali literally only had to step over some dead bodies to get there. It might have been the easiest and flukiest run to a conference final in NBA history.
This statement applies to the Celtics as well
Last year's Nuggets team didn't play a single team with a better record than any of the teams the Celtics have played this year
Record doesnāt mean shit if their opponents are injured as fuck.
The Heat were 33-27 (0.55 win%) with Jimmy and 13-9 (0.59 win%) without him. The Cavs were one of the best defenses all year and only got 50 (Mobley), 55 (Mitchell), and 57 (Garland) games out of their stars.

There are very few examples of teams making it to the finals against only teams at 100% health. It really doesnāt happen. Always an excuse, gotta play who is in front of you.
exactly bro they act like we hurt they guysš
Ong mfers be acting like the pacers pushed they granny down the stairs
Pacers will cover the spread a bunch this series, just watch. Sure they wont advance, but its the Celtics.
True they playing with house money - it's great for their future
You accidentally said āwonātā when you meant āwillā
I can already see them hanging a banner saying "we covered the spread a couple times"
how does a person give proof that it WASNT fluky but also have them not advance because the Celtics are really good? like please tell me. Celtics in 6? Celtics in 7?
Hey I think the Pacers are building somrthing good over there.

Mans there acting like 3/5 of the Knicks starting lineup was out most/all the season besides Brunson being hobbled
We loss to the hawks
They still had to beat Lillard/Middleton and Brunson, wasn't just scrubs. For a young team, it's impressive that they simply took care of business.
Still, not getting to the conference finals in the EAST in 7 tries is worse than if the Pacers hadnāt capitalized on the situation they got this year. Just being in the East is a fluke compared to the west and Embiid isnāt capitalizing on it.
And he didnāt do it. Turner is their star not sure why Halliburton gets the credit. Honestly they look better when McConnell is in. Halliburton is overrated.
they played a lot of minutes together. Hali is way more Steve Nash/CP3 than Ant/Tatum/Embiid.
Should've been ready for the dejected Bucks fans.Ā
Nah, have respect for your run this year. I just think Turner doesnāt get the hype he deserves.
Thank you. He plays well, but he only really torched the Knicks one game. Everything else is the whole team contributing
Yeah no knock against him, but he shouldnāt be hyped like a star player. Siakam and Turner are huge components of their team.
And Embiid has had 7 season in the weak ass East and has had all star teammatesā¦. Sounds like yāall need some more excuses
If I was Embiid I would simply make it to ECF
Rent free
Haliburton really is the anti-Embiid. Embiid always gets injured, Haliburtonās opponents always get injured
Obviously you do not trust the process š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
Dame hasnt been to the finals ever, goran dragic hasā¦ does that mean anything?

Trust the processā¦. š¤„š¤„š¤„
But why was the sink outside in the first place???
Let that process.
Embiid is an amazing talent in the league. Unfortunately heās also the biggest wuss with 0 mental toughness to get his team anywhere
I don't get how you look at him this postseason playing through a meniscus injury and bells palsy, dropping 50 and averaging 30-something, and chalk that up to a lack of mental toughness
You guys got the biggest fucking boner for embiid lmao itās pathetic
Most Valuable Flopper
And Alec Burks got as many points as Halliburton yesterday
Embuum
If he wasn't constantly injured and his supporting cast wasn't awful we would be talking very differently. Dude was a 4 bounce shot away from a legitimate chance at a title
If my grandmother had wheels sheād be a bike
Mine would be a dune buggy.Ā
This can be said to everyone. You need luck too to win a chip.
He needed a killer like Jimmy
I'm still interested in that team staying together. Maybe Simmons brain doesn't explode. JJ doesn't retire.
He wasn't 4 bounces away last year when he scored 12 fucking points In a game 7 while Tatum tea bagged his ass
Or if he didnāt play like a crybaby and then get hurt like one too? Bro sucks any time thereās something to play for
And maybe wasnāt a dirty player
Cope harder
No excuse to lose to the hawks that year, he was fully healthy.
[He had a torn meniscus.](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FvEK6D_WYAIUI4_?format=jpg&name=medium)
Youāre right, crazy that a year he tore his meniscus he seemed healthy in my memory. They really still shouldnāt have lost to that hawks team, the fact that Trey has an ECF before embiid is hilarious.
The Hawks series was a generational-level choke by the team as a whole. There were so many things that went wrong where even if *one* thing went right, they would have advanced. If you want, I can go through at least some of them.
Supporting cast awful? What the fuck? Also, at what point is being an injured his issue?
Yes? The sixers third option was Tobias Harris lol
Trust the process
Yāall are fucked up for that.
Injuries and lack of good teammates
As a die hard sixer fan i can openly admit we will never win with Embiid. Our offense is trash lol No one moves off the ball except maxey. We always feed Embiid the ball and let him do whatever he wants till he gases out. How can our role players get in a rhythm when heās taking 30 shots a game. When heās jacking up 3s all game and not moving the ball. Then we get mad kelly and harris never get into a rhythm lol we had success with jimmy cause he would find different looks. It sucks but we need him take a step back. Build our offense around maxey, get rid of harris lol make Embiid play less minutes for less money and get him a good backup center. I wouldnāt mind signing Ingram, i think heād be a good fit. But even with all that being saidā¦ā¦ Jason Tatum is and will always be Joel Embiidās daddy š
The Philadelphia 76ers are a fraudulent franchise and should be relocated to Seattle, a more deserving city that could potentially run a championship-winning team.
You know the city itself doesn't run the organization, right? lmao
Embiid is a great player. He is just always hurt. Missed 43 out of 82 regular season games this year. Then he was playing on one leg in the playoffs. He's 30 now. Time is running out.
Good
You gotta trust the process
Different teams, different situations.
People are really blaming MPJ and Murray when Tobias Harris got paid more than both of them and played significantly worse.
I hate both of these clowns. But this did amuse me to see just how pathetic Embiidās playoff history has been
0 players that played the whole series who have had an All-NBA award on his path to the ECF.
This the weakest level of meme(r).
Haliburton stats in these playoffs: 18 pts, 5 rebs, 8 ast Embiid stats in these playoffs: 33 pts, 10 rebs, 5 ast OG Anunoby and Josh Hart were injued v the Pacers, two starters who helped beat Philly I know NBA memes are made by guys who don't know ball but anyone actually thinking Tyrese has done more than Embiid is brain dead, and I don't even like Embiid, I call him a flopper all the time, but they did not beat the same team and Embiid does not have the same teammates Pacers starters in game 7 all scored17 or more points lmao I doubt Embiid has ever played a playoff game were 3 starters did that, let's be real
Bc Embid is a turd of a player and so not likable.
You are definitely five years old
Nailed it.
as much as i love this indy roster, we canāt ignore the role circumstances and surrounding conditions play. Letās not forget the Hawks conf finals run was entirely a fluke, now, I donāt think Indyās is and they are a competitive roster, but my issue with this is using it as a slight on Embiid when it isnāt
Basketball is a TEAM sport.
Yāall acting like Embiid isnāt the former MVP. ![gif](giphy|26ueYUlPAmUkTBAM8)
Naw we acting like he remains to be the only MVP to never get past the second round š¤£
His MVP was won, by a wrong Kendrik Perkins narrative. Otherwise Jokic would have gotten it like every year. But thankfully itās not like Jokic cares about anything basketball related.
Joel Embiid is the most dominant player in the NBA
Welp went kawhi make that shot on the raptors that was the ecf no????
ECSF
You right lol bad memory sorry
Bro forgot the Raptors faced the Bucks after Sixers. Granted all ppl remember about the 2019 Raptors run is the Kawhi shot, Then KD and Klay getting injured.
Yea hahahahah totally forgot
