Sounds characteristic of Philly to me
Philly still ain’t recovered from Kawhi 😂
Philly had a chance to win and tie – stop complaining
Top to bottom, Philly ain’t built for it.
He basically said that’s what happens in the playoffs with a crazy crowd in the final minutes and that all this crying could be solved if you just GRAB A REBOUND.
Love to see Philly’s softness called out so unapologetically. That sequence was ticky tacky at best and it didn’t even end the game — Sixers had more than enough opportunities to take that W if they wanted it.
I mean it’s not even a Sixers thing, Morey has always been the crybaby type even back in Houston.
Your 38yo PG doesn’t have the presence of mind to call a timeout in a situation where you’re clearly flustered. Your coach pump fakes a TO and decides to let the chaos play out. Chaos plays out and you file a grievance with the NBA because you didn’t get a timeout that you never called.
FA, meet FO
Philly has been soft, weak-minded, and just flat out extremely chapped.
“Trust the process” such a load of garbage. Imagine losing games for years in a row and trying to spin it off as some master plan. That loser mentality has always been there.
Speaking of Bill Simmons, Ryen Russillo made a good point in his recap. It would NOT be a Daryl Morey led team if there weren’t some bitchin’ about the refs
If, for the entirety of the game, or for both games, the officiating was one sided, maybe then it’s something to consider. To benefit from a lot of bs calls, especially involving Embiid, and then to do this shit is absurd.
The sixers are the joke of this generation. Tanked on historical levels and flopped literally and figuratively season after season. This is the one franchise I’ve had on my shit list even before this series. Their whole foundation is built on tanking and flopping and choking in the playoffs.

Not to mention all the crap Embiid gets away with
Bill Simmons as an ally? Not on my Wednesday bing-bong bingo card
North East team fanbases are the best
I just find it funny that they let us dribble out while up 5 w 47 seconds left meanwhile we scored 7 points in 14 seconds off sheer grit and determination. They run a better offense than us but we have so much more as a cohesive team unit
The impending doom of possibly being down 0-3 is settling in. I love being on the right side of this
Remember when we got dicked over during the Houston game and we filed a grievance? Everyone files grievances even though they never work lol. Philly still a bunch of 👶🍼.
tf are we talking about? it’s the most philly thing i’ve ever heard of lol
I know a lot of people in these parts don’t like Bill Simmons, but I actually don’t mind him and regularly listen to his podcast.
Lol he’s right.
I really thought the Sixers and their fans were tougher than this especially given the reputation they have.
If the shoe was on the other foot they’d be telling us all to eff off and to suck it up.
We won. This is playoff basketball!
They need to just accept the L and move on.
or call timeout before inbounding. watch embid have 20+ ft game 3. nic nurse is a sissy ass bitch.
I loved when he said “even Breen double banged it”
> It’s the most anti Philly thing to do… ‘Waaaah! Here’s my grievance!’ ”
No, I actually think this is the most Philly thing to do.
One of the softest teams in the league and 100% the softest team in the Atlantic division.
Fuck Bill Simmons and his Boston Bias ass
