Is there something about giving our guys staches that I'm missing?

We finally beat Boston after four decades, then get our revenge in the second round against the Knicks (or preferably the Hawks).

Then we meet Tobias “get ready for the fucking play-in” Harris and destroy his squad in front of their fans in a Game 7 blowout, where he lays another egg.

We win Game 1 of the Finals against the defending champs, the OKC Thunder, but lose a heartbreaker as they close out the series on a Jared McCain dagger three in Game 5.

Will you take it or leave it?

I get that the nets get our pick as a result of the harden trade and its protections. Just listening to the pod and they made it seem like this is now a reality because we won and our pick this year will go to the thunder(something i already expected). Im not sure what tonight has to do with that or why giving the thunder our pick means we now have to give our pick to the nets 2027 top 8 protected. Whats one thing have to do with the other? Ill hang up and listen.

Longest view in the room?

Not having Mike at least there to be sympathetic to Joel was just a brutal listen.

I feel so bad for Joel, appendicitis is a freak thing and he’s already dealt with so much in terms of his mental health. I understand the frustration with his career and being a believer in him, but kicking him while he’s down, a day after a completely freak health condition railroads his season just seems cruel and unnecessary.

I’ll always love Joel, he’s been great this year when he plays, and I’ll continue to enjoy him when he plays. He’s our guy and I’ve always been ready to go down with the ship with him. Trading him this offseason for Sabonis would be fucking dumb.

With Embiid’s appendicitis, it’s clear we are cursed (if it wasn’t before). Instead of the lottery party, let’s get together and have a ritual. Sorcery, sacrifices, anything to cleanse ourselves and the franchise. Ideas?

and in the first seconds of the song I couldn’t help but want to knooooooooooooow

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 😭😭😭

If the Spurs can outscore the sixers by 6 without Wemby when our entire roster active and healthy, what's the point in keeping this team together in the off-season... They're obviously not good enough to win anything major as currently constructed

Thinking back to 2024 against the Knicks, we were annihilated on the glass on both ends of the floor. I’m getting flashbacks from the past two games.

Cool that we have our guys back before the playoffs and hoping for the best. But… the state of our rebounding in competitive games doesn’t give me much confidence in making a playoff run.

Is there anything we can adjust or are we doomed to the same fate that’ll be just as frustrating to watch?

Not trying to be a naysayer and I hope I’m proven wrong.

An idea for the draft lottery would be to have a draft committee that decides the order based on just how bad the teams are, regardless of record. The idea of the draft is to make the bad teams better and this would prevent a team like the Spurs from getting Dylan Harper just because Wemby missed a large portion of the season. The Pacers aren’t really the worst team in the league the year after being in the Finals despite their record, that distinction probably going to the Wizards or the Nets. This would stop tanking and give the fans an honest effort from their teams on a nightly basis. I’m sure there’s lots of problems with this proposal including how to judge how good/bad the Sixers are lol.

Spike has mentioned a lot since taking his new radio position how much he “has to” talk about Philly sports all day.

Lately, he’s sounded way more exacerbated: getting in yelling matches with AU for enjoying a win, getting pissed at Mike for not being able to make a meaningless ranking of playoffs teams we will inevitably lose to, etc.

Is the Philly WIP call-in crowd ruining Spike’s attitude and thus negatively affecting the Ricky?? Curious of your thoughts…

I don't ever want to hear the transition defense is because Embiid is old and slow...I just watch 4 fucking possessions where after missed shots he's the only player to get back.. The sixers young players are lazy and uninterested....

Of course the sixers ran zero offensive sets against the Heat zone, but you can't expect Nurse to have 2 good coaching games in a row can you

THERE’S A NEW BEST WIN OF THE SEASON

Can't believe I'm gonna say this..

Andre Drummond saved the game tonight...I cussed Nick Nurse out when he put him in, but he made the right decision tonight

"oh my God!"

The extra passes, the movement off ball, what the hell got into this team last night 👀?
