Here we go !!
MVP performance coming from Embiid
Cautiously optimistic. Let’s go
If we lose I’ll commit sepokou
Deeply nervous
Don’t suck, Sixers!
Embiid ganna go insane Doc ganna let him have the ball all he wants. DOMINATION.
Scott Foster game tonight. 🤮
I am nervous ngl
Don’t fret fellas, Foster has a great home record win %
Scott Foster is literally here to extend the series in our favor.
Rooting for the boys in black and white big time tonight.
Full-on undertaker game from Jojo tonight.
38/14/5/5/2. 13 of 15 from the line.
I’m from the future.
Perimeter rotations will be huge. We can’t keep leaving Boston shooters alone for clean looks at three. I have no concerns about our offense at home. We just need better defensive discipline and we’ll win going away.
Embiid lifting the MVP before Game 3 of a tied second round series against Boston. This is what we dreamed of. Have to take care of business and break the second round curse this season.
I’m getting chills from nbc sports pregame Embiid highlights
[POV: you’re at the Philadelphia sports complex tonight](https://th-thumbnailer.cdn-si-edu.com/J-W-7jFw1I03oQASsIalOCSoinc=/fit-in/1600×0/https://tf-cmsv2-smithsonianmag-media.s3.amazonaws.com/filer/93/a9/93a97057-f628-4de7-adc7-c2ca0f68c4ac/boston_massacre_high-res.jpg)
Disinfect the trophy before Joel holds it. Never know what Silver is capable of.
so nervous I’m about to take out a whole family sized box of extra toasted cheezits
