On the flip side, 2 straight losses means no more Tobias

Is this what the cowboys fans feel like?

Beautiful thing is you only have to be right once

Could you imagine though?
No, but there’s just this part of me that wonders…say we beat Miami and they win the 8 seed…could you imagine if they knock Boston out in R1?

This year we have one of the best coach in franchise history. As long as Embiid is healthy, anything is possible

Its different because we actually have players who can work off of embiid. He at bare minimum frees up space for maxey, harris and oubre to go to work. Nurse has a much better offense. We are the second best offense with nurse. Defensively, we don’t have harden, Batum and oubre are solid wing defenders, tobias is capable, lowry is also good and so is melton if he can play.
Offensively, batum, oubre, maxey and hield can work off of joel very well. Nurse has more motion in the offense and joel is a better passer. Embiid is an improved passer and we all see irThere is a larger risk to doubling him when you have those guys compared to pj tucker, harden, simmons and thybulle.
We are built better with nurse. We did pretty well taking a better boston team to 7 and nearly winning in 6 last year.
It doesnt mean we will get past the first round guaranteed. But we dont have the same issues as in years past.

I’d say we probably have a ~5% chance of winning it all

😂😂As a Philly fan, we have the unique ability to be able to wash last year away from our memories temporarily when needed. Same thing with the Eagles and Phillies. That being said, i’m more confident in them this year than last year when we had Harden. Its all going to come down to Joel Fuckin Embiid like it always does. If he’s good to go, i think we can beat the fucking celtics, if he’s not, second round is our ceiling as usual.

You should be happy the 76ers are relevant at all. I felt much more like a clown post-AI era and at the peak process. Also this year is different.

This year actually doesn’t feel special which makes me think it might be special
MidnightPoblano
Most of these other years they’ve been a top seed with a lot of pressure on them, I do think an underdog run this year might feel a lot different. But you’re probably right, I have my wig ready.

The NBA let’s more than half the league into the playoffs, only a few teams have a real chance, and only one team wins.
The baseline experience of being an NBA fan is irrational hope. We have no choice but to be clowns.
