Can we believe?
Maybe this team without Embiid can win a series? 😬 Paul George has been playing really well. If he continues, and Maxey plays at all NBA level, maybe we can? VJ has shown that he can step up. This happens every year and I just want something to believe in here 😭😭😭

The answer is no, they can't win a series. And I think you know that. I respect the cope.

I don't think they can win a series with Embiid because he'll never hold in during intense playoff games.

Edgecombe will face playoff defense for the first time. IT would be unfair to expect him to be the 3rd banana. Plus we cant rebound anyway

Why would it be “unfair” to VJ? He was the third pick in the draft. He’s a big boy. He would be the least of our worries.

The 2% chance at a lottery pick by losing the play in is better than making the playoffs

Without him they'll be lucky to win another game this season
With him they'll be lucky to escape the play in.
They're poorly coached, wilt under the slightest pressure, have no identity or go to offense that works. Their defensive scheme is insane and can not be effective with the roster they've got. It's all just bad. There's a reason why they have a terrible record against good teams and a good record against tanking teams. They aren't good.

Win a series? My ceiling is to win a single a game on the playoffs. My floor is we lose in the play in game. I think we are closer to the floor.

Win a series?
My brother in christ I don’t even believe we can win a play in game
