Joel Embiid: “You can be as tough as you want mentally, but if you can’t respond by making shots, that doesn’t mean you’re weak mentally… we kept shooting and we kept missing, and that’s okay.”

“Maybe it just wasn’t meant to be.”

Mentally we are fine, physically, well, there are some issues.

76ers fans I'm mourning the loss with you :(

Interesting that the WCF and ECF are the exact same as the bubble year. I feel like the only real anomaly that year was TJ Warren scoring over 30 ppg in the final 8 games of the season for Indiana. Miami even beat Milwaukee in 5 that year while Brooklyn got swept and Boston beat Philly so lots of history is repeating itself. No 3-1 comebacks tho

lol i knew Doc is a bad coach, but didn't know just how bad he is in the playoffs

ran across an article that pointed out that he is 17-33 in games in which he had a chance to clinch a playoff series and now 6-10 in Game 7s, which is apparently the most game 7 losses of any coach in NBA history. And while it didn't happen this year, there have only been 13 blown 3-1 series leads, and Rivers is responsible for three of them

just lmao at how much he's coasted on that one year where things actually worked out in spite of him

It would actually be kind of funny if after all the demands on the internet (and not just ITT) for the sixers to trade all their stars and fire their coach etc etc etc they just come back next year with the exact same squad but the bench tweaked a little

not AS funny as them actually blowing it up though, just a different funny
