I mean, it worked? Joel just hates playing against us and that’s the way I like it
Who?
Ya that’s why we eliminated them and went on to win the chip lol
idk if he’s trolling but that quote doesn’t make any sense. its like saying “my doctor only cares about stopping the cancer from spreading but doesn’t care about my health”
What does Embiid know about winning? Dude never played past 2nd round ?
LOL even in these down times we are in the floppasauruses head
🧂 🧂
You can tell he’s still bitter about us ruining the best shot he’ll likely ever have at playing in a finals. Accomplish something in your career than talk.
Embiitch just admitted that Toronto owns him
All good let me talk shit while we down lmao

Hey. Have some respect. Embiid is a multiple first round winner.
shutting down star players = better chance of winning…
💍
Losing streak is almost worth it for these crybaby moments. Next best thing to winning.
What a goofy take, literally came down to overtime. Such a goof
This is coming from a dude who has never made it past the second round
I take comfort in knowing he’ll never win a championship.
76ers haven’t been out of the 2nd round in 22 years, I don’t think a player on a team with that kind of history should be making comments about another team and it’s will to win lmaoo.
Still wakes up with Nightmares of Marc Gasol holding him to zero points, must be tough living rent free in his head
Sounds like a comment from someone who had their asses handed to them in the playoffs.
🏆
Lol this subreddit and Raps fans in general been saying this but the second Embiid echoes the same shit all of a sudden it’s a crime 💀
lmao that’s facts tho. the nick nurse special

i mean he’s not wrong though? Obviously the way this is worded sounds a bit snarky but isn’t this what they try to do? It works until it doesn’t
Stay mad C(o)unt Floppsalot

Joel Embiid? The guy that left the stadium in tears after game 7? That Joel Embiid?
Wow what sage advice. Next time, we’ll ignore their best player, go man to man on everyone else and just have a floating man to double whenever.
The fuck outta here with this stupid ass take.
I hate Joel for his flops and petty outbursts on court but this is true to an extent. I wouldn’t take the not winning part because they are not winning right now so it’s easier to say that. They care about winning that’s why they demolished his 76ers enroute to the chip. However the star players part is bang on. Don’t know if Nick Nurse takes it personal, but they just shut down the star players like none other.
