    So now I sit here drunk sad fully back in and have to go to work tomorrow don’t know if I could be much lower

  2. BushidoBrowneII

    Ben Simmons would have scored at least 2 points tonight.

    Get Tobias out of here

  3. Jalen Brunson is Trae Young with less range and more hair

  4. Jawnshames76

    I can’t wait to buy tickets when Tobias comes back to philly. I was at the harden/ clippers game a few weeks ago when he got booed forever Tobias better sit this game . Gonna be a riot in there

  5. LeadingWonder5875

    As long as The Nuggets/Knicks/Celtics don’t win I’m fine

  6. nnosuckluckz

    All I’m seeing on Twitter is these “NY takeover of Wells Fargo complete” like bro do you want us to stay at the arena after we lose to stand around? lmao

  7. MyShtummyHurtt

    Who hindered the team more, Doc or Tobias?

  8. sugerdigitalgenius

    Sixers out the playoffs, no biggie just bounce back, but in the meantime

    Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis is coming😈🗡️

  9. DeMarcusPrimos

    jalen brunson is trae young with new york big market pr

  10. Did Nurse give a reason why Buddy didn’t touch the floor in the 3rd quarter?

  11. Bothers me so much how we haven’t gotten any further than Doug Collins and iguodala did. Tons of a reasons why and mostly cause of a disaster front office. Just sucks. I sure hope Morey pushes the right buttons this offseason and nurse has a plan for those guys. Mike Muscala deserves a statue, Maxey is him.

  12. throwawaymac83

    After rightfully dogging Tobi for his performance, I will take a high road and say his defense was pretty good this series. Good riddance though!

  13. Pain…

    Tobias really decided to give us one last “fuck you” and go out like a chump huh. 

    Trying to focus on the positives…
    – bye bye Tobias.
    – I like Cam Payne returning at the right money (re: cheap)
    – feels like the first time we actually get to entertain free agents since those horrible contracts were given out.

    Really fucking sucks because I genuinely feel like if we had managed to pull off the comeback the city would’ve really been behind the team. 

  14. LeadingWonder5875

    I’m for Buddy starting at shooting guard next year

  15. InspectorNS

    Embiid just mentioned how he’s excited about the future due to maxey’s emergence and huge “cap space” we have. Bro basically said he’s glad tobias is gone without saying it lmao.

  16. DruncleBuck

    Yall played a hell of a series. Maxey is fucking incredible. He’s your future. GL guys

  17. SonicdaSloth

    Getting Knicks round 1 blows. Thibs gonna run them into ground by end of round 2

  18. TerminallyTrill

    We played our hearts out.

    Next year we take off the weighted armor that is Tobias and try again.

  19. forgetmeknot01

    Game 7 would have been fun but this team wasn’t getting past the Celtics. The pacers speed with Embiid limping around would have been an issue as well.

    2 max contract spots open. Ownership needs to pay the luxury tax and open the wallet for the next 3 years. Go all in!

  20. obese_rag_rappy

    I wanted to see them win this series because it was SO close in these games but they just didn’t have enough. Don’t really feel as emo about the loss either because honestly, the Celtics were going to destroy this team if they made it to the ECF anyway. Derrick White alone shits on everyone outside of Maxey / Embiid on this team. I’ve already seen the Celtics vs. Sixers movie play out year after year so I’m not gonna be too sad about missing it this time.

    I’m disappointed but I’m not too mad at Maxey and Embiid. They had their share of bad games but they also each carried the two wins they managed to get. The role players were just non existent way too many nights to give them any chance and the minutes without Joel went to hell just like it does every year. I’m glad Tobias is finally gone. I do not want Reed back unless it’s for the bare minimum. Much rather have a real C who can rebound and hang with bigger bodies but I doubt they sign one since Morey doesn’t seem to value it.

    Huge summer ahead. It’s make or break time for Morey. You have your clean slate to get whoever you want that’s available so it’s time to pull that rabbit out of your ass and make this a true team.

  21. badscene518

    Ok. Now that the pain has passed a bit….

    I’m real proud of this team and the fight they had all year/this series

  22. gobirds18_

    SO to the fans at the game, environment sounded awesome

  23. bdecastro116

    I hate this act of “they played there hearts out” and “let’s give them credit”. Credit for what? being losers? how many years until we can stand up and say wow our team isn’t good and we don’t deserve any credit for going out there and gettting out hustled by a mediocre knicks team. Just dissatisfied and repulsed by some of these fans taking it like it’s no big deal and this was something to be proud of.

  24. LeadingWonder5875

    Joel letting the FO know that we gotta bring some of these boys back

  25. BeingMikeHunt

    Knicks fan, here. Congrats on a great series. Two evenly matched teams. Someone had to lose. Run your offense through Maxey going forward. He’s special.

    Embid is great – I just think you guys gotta either get him to lose more weight or really employ strict minute and/or game restrictions during the season. His body betrays him every year.

    You guys will be back, though. Nurse is a great coach and you have two franchise players

  26. PointB1ank

    Lol at all these brigadiers coming in here giving us a pat on the back talking about how we fought hard and should be proud like we give a shit what they think. Fuck off.

  27. DemonsReturns7

    Weird game

    I didn’t watch but

    We hit more 3s than they did and only missed 1 free throw with both teams attempting roughly the same amount of FTs

  28. DemonsReturns7

    Man I can’t believe there would be another Sixer I would end up hating more than Bum Simmons

    Then came TobiAss Harris

  29. Neat-Confidence5556

    this team was NEVER going to win a fucking thing with a max contract tied into a player who consistently gives you nothing. 0 points is the perfect send off for the worst thing to ever happen to this franchise

  30. jjacobsnd5

    I don’t give a fuck, I’m rooting for Boston if these fucks make it to the east finals

  31. LeadingWonder5875

    Would John Collins be a good PF on this team? Maxey Hield Oubre Collins Embiid starting five. I just wanna keep talking Sixers man I love this team.

  32. reggaetony88

    Seriously who’s worse contract-wise? Harris or Casty? Harris is worse by a long shot.

  33. If you watch the defensive responsibilities in this game, Kelly Oubre made error after error. He was ad libbing in the defensive scheme and feel asleep multiple times in picking up players and other times was ball watching during rebound opportunities.
    Against a good fundamentally sound team like the NYK, you get victimized.

    Plays like this:

  34. throwawaymac83

    Attempting to not be prisoners of the moment, who would you rather see make the finals, Celtics or Knicks? I’m not sure who I’d rather feel pain more atp. (Praying for a West finals win either way)

  35. nick_gti3551

    god damnit i didn’t wear my red jersey and got a new one for tonight to avoid the bad juju and still this.. please don’t tell me the blue ones are cursed now im going to run out of options here soon. but in all seriousness not the way i wanted to end this season, as going to the past 7-8 home games i believe has severely helped me through a hard time i have been dealing with personally. i wanted to go to more games! lol but we have 2 amazing superstars to build around and im so excited for next season. like i said a bitter end to another what could have been season but i still love my sixers. see yall next year ❤️💙

  36. Could have been such a different outcome if Morey didn’t screw Harden after last year.

  37. Damn, just saw the highlights. The one game where they actually got bench production they couldn’t pull it out. I expected it to be tough, I didn’t view the Knicks as a weak opponent or anything, so not to bummed but it does suck.
