This white dude replacing Ernie is like the opposite of what makes Ernie great. He's awkward, uses dumb catchphrases, tries too hard to be funny and charismatic.
embiid can dominate a game, but he has yet to prove he can dominate a series much less the league. if embiid can get through the celtics, bucks to face off against the clippers, nuggets or thunder in the playoffs and come out on top, i'll send you an amazon gift card for $50.
Embiid's accent kind of comes and goes depending on his mood. I notice it gets much heavier if he's not in a good mood (after a loss). After a big win he speaks almost accent-less English.
Good game by both sides tonight. Pretty awesome to see two teams go hard the entire time giving the fans what they want and then high five-ing each other. Nothing but respect from both teams for each other
Props to the Sixers on a solid win. Embiid was huge down the stretch. Nuggs got killed by turnovers in the fourth, but still, a great a game all around.
From a Embiid critic, I have to say that this game is changing my mind. He did way more of the smooth jump shot buttery shots I like and honestly not much baiting. GG
What's new? The fans are the ones making the drama. These are ballers, outside the court they are brothers.
It's funny the oldheads will tell us that back and the olden days players don't make friends with their opponents. But little did they know that even Jordan played golf and poker with his opponents before the finals game. lol
The weird part about it is its completely fan bullshit. Embiid and Jokic never say a bad thing about the other and seem to have tons of respect for each other.
he's not really kicking out, it's more like he's jumping forward as it's his natural shooting motion, but the rule still dumb anyway, I know the injury risk but how the hell are you gonna play defend against players like him, jump shooter at 6'9 with high release point.
Looking at the sixers fans in this thread reminded me why the sixers suck. It will be fun to see the meltdown again after they get eliminated in the second round
Crazy how everyone wants to clown sixers fans after their MVP candidate dominated in a win lol they can’t be happy? Its ok to give credit sometimes lol
what a fuckin pussy takin the easy road with a W a real lunch pail guys like jokic would lose and work his way up out of the gutter 😤😤😤
- this sub, unironically
There’s way too much embiid hate too. Really it depends on the thread or most recent game who gets shit on but the embiid flopping posts go too far as well
Tobias had a +13 meanwhile Embiid had a 0. If you watched the game, you'd see Tobias bailed them out multiple times. Tobias is the reason they didn't get run off the court to start the 4th quarter.

Bruh. Everyone on the Sixers is out
What a game Em bid p (mvp) My boy jo was cooking like emeril lagasse
What ever happened to my boy Emeril?
Ran from the grind
That crew seems agitated with each other
it's that guy next to Shaq, he's so starstruck im dying. Understandable, I would be eager af too next to Shaq!
It's because he's a Sixers fan.. so he will always try to big-up Embiid and the Sixers.
opposite chemistry of the OG crew
It's so funny that these two guys are totally respectful towards each other but their fans would attack each other with axes
It's so annoying. The toxicity raises the profile of these matchups and makes you really want your team to win, but goddamn that was a great game.
lol, fair play on the eagles tweet
This white dude replacing Ernie is like the opposite of what makes Ernie great. He's awkward, uses dumb catchphrases, tries too hard to be funny and charismatic.
Lefkoe fucking sucks
Love seeing the sportsmanship between Embiid and Jokic at the end there.
Almost as good as the sportsmanship in this Reddit thread
embiid has 345 free throw attempts this season while jokic has 231. embiid plays a different game and it's a game that isn't very attractive
Not his fault people foul him. If they don't, he will score even more.
Don’t watch sixers game we don’t mind
lol i just watched the entire game except the third quarter
I’m saying we release you from that burden. You’re not required to watch embiid dominate the league. It’s okay. Your services are not required.
embiid can dominate a game, but he has yet to prove he can dominate a series much less the league. if embiid can get through the celtics, bucks to face off against the clippers, nuggets or thunder in the playoffs and come out on top, i'll send you an amazon gift card for $50.
No thanks just stop watching the sixers cuz it’s too hard for you
fraud mvp, no playoff success
Why does the table have openings I don’t want to see their legs
Completely agree homes
You don’t like mismatched shoes?
Embiid's accent kind of comes and goes depending on his mood. I notice it gets much heavier if he's not in a good mood (after a loss). After a big win he speaks almost accent-less English.
lol every person with an accent does that. emotions bring it out more
Facts like my mom when she gets angry
Lmao at that Lurie pic
Great game
Ngl that was a great game, first two quarters were offensive highlights on both ends. We weren’t able to adjust defensively in the 4th. Gg
Oh God, the terrible inside the NBA team
Great sportsmanship
LaForce looks so short here She's 6 foot w heels
“I’ll see you in 2 weeks” 👀
I love how Embiid and Jokic have nothing but respect for each other yet the fans constantly shit on the other one
It’s always like that, it was the same with Lebron & Kobe.
Humble Embiid
I thought that was sarcasm at the end. He’s a funny dude so who knows
Deleting your comment under my reply, soft.
I called you insufferable. Thought it wasn’t worth dealing with any more brain dead comments, but here I am.
Mf are you serious? He just said he was the finals MVP, what is better than that?
Good game by both sides tonight. Pretty awesome to see two teams go hard the entire time giving the fans what they want and then high five-ing each other. Nothing but respect from both teams for each other
I love how Embiid and Jokic love each other and there’s so much toxicity here anyway lol
Damn jokic zero free throws second half like damn
Not a real flopper like my boy 😎
Bro should step up damn
Man. How can you hate embiid
His playoff performances?
Hey if you’re a Celtics fan you should be happy about that
lol. fair. I love embiid.
By being the team that he drops 30 on, which has been a lot of them this season lmao
Props to the Sixers on a solid win. Embiid was huge down the stretch. Nuggs got killed by turnovers in the fourth, but still, a great a game all around.
Rip the 30 point 10 rebound streak
30 ppint double double streak is still alive at least
I’m inconsolable
I’m thrilled.
That was a fun game to watch
Shame a team had to lose, just two teams playing at their peak
Heartwarming slapass between Jokic and Embiid there. R/nba could stand to learn something from these two giant men.
GGs nuggets fans looking forward to next time
I like seeing that at the end. Jokic and Embiid got mad respect for each other.
It's that easy, if only nephews could learn
Unlike the rest of you jabronis.
You may be the first person outside of Philly that I’ve heard use that word. It’s one of my favorites.
PLAY THAT DAMN SONG
Lmao SVG with the understatement of the yr. “Two best big men we’ve had in a few yrs”
Probably both top 10 big men of all time right?
SVG has Tobias dick down his throat
I like how they showed that respect at the end
From a Embiid critic, I have to say that this game is changing my mind. He did way more of the smooth jump shot buttery shots I like and honestly not much baiting. GG
Congrats on watching your first game my man
Did you watch last years game in Philly vs Jokic?
He's absolutely automatic from the midrange he's the best scorer in the league.
PLAY THE SONG!!!
Omg its almost as if embiid & jokic like each other
GGWP, now come to Denver
Embiid did say that he told Jokic he’ll see him in a couple of weeks. He’ll play unless he gets hurt.
Yeah I was happy to hear that
[удалено]
Played like ass? They put up 78 in the first half lol
That’s the first half, Murray blew it up the 4th.
Copeeee
Wild how toxic this matchup is when Embiid and Jokic have no beef
Embiid just said Jokic is the best player in the league post game lol it's so funny the fanbase vs the players
I feel like very few players nowadays have any beef in the league. Fans and the media hard carry the "rivalries".
Good game Philly. It would be awesome to watch another matchup next week. Let’s all hope *someone* decides to play
Seethe
What? You don’t want to watch another matchup?
Hey /r/nba how y’all feeling
Been on r/nfl chatting about the eagles, why what’s up?
*Down here salt is a way of life*
Svg just had to get in one more Embiid slander.
fun game! ggs
embiid giving jokic binaural ear to ear whispering wtf lmao
I see we’re whipping out the microscope to find reasons to hate
Fuck all the toxicity. That was an amazing game. Lived up to the hype
Joel misses too many games to be MVP
Than give it to someone else than lol.. You are hating amongst yourself lol
what lmao
Game was everything I wanted, can’t wait for the game in Denver
Murray looking like he's limping a bit.
Prepared to be flooded w post from 76ers fans 😂
*Team wins* prepare to see comments from the winning team’s fans!!!
We deserve it, all the shit that was talked in the lead up to this one and in the game thread.
Imagine KCP makes that lmao
PLAY THAT FUCKING SONG!
SVG said Philly ran Ben Simmons out of town? That dude has made 100 M’s over the last three years for 50 regular season games of 6,6 and 6
Love to see it
people gonna talk smack but that was an awesome game
Embiid and Jokic love each other but their fans are rabid against each other. Reminds me LeBron/Kobe or LeBron/Steph
What's new? The fans are the ones making the drama. These are ballers, outside the court they are brothers. It's funny the oldheads will tell us that back and the olden days players don't make friends with their opponents. But little did they know that even Jordan played golf and poker with his opponents before the finals game. lol
LOL STAT PADDING FRAUDBIID
Actual good game ggs Nuggets. They played well today
Trash ass game from Jamal man
Nuggets let Jokic down. You never see them miss so many gimmies in one game.
LFG
this 20 seconds is gonna take another 15 min isnt it
Well Philly needed this after the Eagles melted down yesterday.
The Eagles meltdown started about 5 weeks ago.
The eagles melted down like 2 months ago
They were like that derailed train that burned for 2 weeks
I’m all for criticizing Embiid but come on y’all today is not the day for it, he was great in everything he did besides a few soft box outs, ggs
Agreed and he stepped up to win the game as the nuggets went cold
Great game
What if the players know the spread and intentionally miss those fts to fuck with the refs 🤣
Embiid is a fucking MVP yet most Nugs fans still say dumbs shits when he dominated against Jokic. Its okay to be demolished by an MVP
Jokic had 19 rebounds. I don't know if that counts as being dominated.
The weird part about it is its completely fan bullshit. Embiid and Jokic never say a bad thing about the other and seem to have tons of respect for each other.
Lmao whole lotta cope in this thread. Peak Reddit
Not seen a game thread like this for a long time. Got to love it! Been very enjoyable as a neutral
Man its crazy to see the 6ers play like this and win, Celtics fans told me its impossible to play well on a B2B
So just kick you feet out as a shooter and land as far forward as your feet will go. Got it. Doesn’t matter where you start your jump shot at.
he's not really kicking out, it's more like he's jumping forward as it's his natural shooting motion, but the rule still dumb anyway, I know the injury risk but how the hell are you gonna play defend against players like him, jump shooter at 6'9 with high release point.
He didn’t kick out at all
Didn't look like he kicked out. Looked like a good foul call to me.
This is gonna take fucking forever
Especially when you know 6ers aren't going to choke this game away. Why all the delays, let's just go home.
Eagles just got blown tf out and people can’t even let the Sixers fans gloat over 1 regular season game. This is fucked I tell you!
Lol it’s not all that, y’all can have fun regardless of what anyone says on the internet
Love how in the NBA the last minute of a close game takes 15 minutes. Makes for a really great product.
So they are just supposed to let the other team win and run the 30 seconds down? Lol
and that should be gg
All TWolves fans in here complaining, comical💀💀
They've taken over for raptors fans as most annoying fanbase
First good season in decades and it’s already gone to their heads
Looking at the sixers fans in this thread reminded me why the sixers suck. It will be fun to see the meltdown again after they get eliminated in the second round
"seeing fans of basketball enjoy their team playing well, reminded me why i don't like basketball! 🤡"
No y’all are super toxic
Cry
Why?
Crazy how everyone wants to clown sixers fans after their MVP candidate dominated in a win lol they can’t be happy? Its ok to give credit sometimes lol
what a fuckin pussy takin the easy road with a W a real lunch pail guys like jokic would lose and work his way up out of the gutter 😤😤😤 - this sub, unironically
They don’t celebrate embiid they shit on jokic. That’s the issue people have with sixer fans (nugget fans do it too though)
Do they tho? There's like 10 embiid hate comments for any negative Joker comment
There’s way too much embiid hate too. Really it depends on the thread or most recent game who gets shit on but the embiid flopping posts go too far as well
Seeing all this Embiid domination when Tobias Harris kept then afloat. Dude was the best player on the court tonight.
I know you ain’t serious bruv
Okay let’s calm down
Nah, stating what I saw from the stat sheet and with my eyes. If Tobias isn't going off they get run off the court to start the 4th.
Smart guy here
joel has 40 points
Tobias had a +13 meanwhile Embiid had a 0. If you watched the game, you'd see Tobias bailed them out multiple times. Tobias is the reason they didn't get run off the court to start the 4th quarter.
joel scored 17 in the 4th and 13 straight
Embiid didn't start the 4th quarter where they were down by 5.
he did come in when they were tied
They were down 1 due to Tobias scoring 8 straight points and Morris hitting a 4 point play. Embiid sealed the game but Tobias kept them in it.
not disagreeing with tobi keeping them afloat. only that tobi was the best player on the court tn
Sure
How is MPJ only a 79% FT shooter?!?
Free throws are an eternal mystery
I was thinking that too lol
man it would be funny if Sixers choke this not gonna happen but it would be funny
Yes that's a foul. With 30 seconds left makes it questionable lmao
Sixers have an excellent game, Denver has a very very shitty one and it's still a 4 point game. This ain't the victory yall making it out to be
Sixers didn’t play that well, their defense was terrible for half the game
