This is on Nash for keeping a hopeless Harris in for so long and only playing half his team. I don’t really know what else he was supposed to do, with no Kyrie and a hobbled Harden they didn’t have a lot of good options, it was not a great bench. “Defense wins championships” holds for another year.

BBTV Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 LOL Ben Simmons passed up a clear dunk/layup to give up the ball because he's a scared little child who's afraid of doing anything that resembles shooting the ball. I've taken dumps that have more confidence in their shots than him. He's trash.

DG_ThenNowForever Posted June 21, 2021 Author Share Posted June 21, 2021 Yeah, passing up that dunk was really bad. The Sixers play like a bunch of knuckleheads. EDIT: I posted that before Embiid decided to hand the ball over to Galinari. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Embiid's not the problem. He's playing through some stuff that most players wouldn't even try to, and he's putting up 30+ / game while at probably 50%. Danny Green being out for the series didn't help, but Ben Simmons represents everything that's wrong with pro sports. He collects a guaranteed contract for zero effort and zero heart. Zero preparation, and zero Fs given. I absolutely hate him. Joel Embiid should cripple him. If Simmons had 1/10th of Embiid's heart they'd be in the ECF.

dont care Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 I have to say this is the best playoffs I’ve seen in over a decade. This is the first year the finals wasn’t known before the season started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockstar Matt Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 No way. This is absolutely crazy. Either the Suns, Clippers, Hawks or Bucks will win the title. If anyone said that at the start of the season, they’d have been ruthlessly made fun of lmao Cowboys - Lakers - LAFC - USMNT - LA Rams - LA Kings - NUFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 I ain't bitter - I don't even really watch basketball, but I can see that Atlanta is a really good team, Tre Young is incredible, and they should probably have been a higher seed and are in the ECF on merit. But Ben Simmons is proof that dog turds can actually breathe.

Indigo Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Ben Simmons’ aversion to shooting and the lack of a shot creating guard is what will keep Philly from completing the Process. (BTW, who predicted that Trae Young might reach the Finals before Luka Doncic? Is he does, did the Hawks win that trade?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 To steal one of my favorite lines in recent CCSLC memory, Ben Simmons can eat all the farts. Scumbag.

Digby Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Thought that would be a repeat of the other East series, two teams cruelly impossible to truly separate, until that last 5 minutes. OUCH. Booed off your own court in a game seven…brutal stuff from Philly. Taking nothing away from the Hawks who have been brilliant, and totally shook off Trae having an off night at the start. The kind of fearless performance that fits a top-two seed. Lloyd Pierce will never have an NBA job again, what on earth was that guy doing?

They lost. That's the ultimate completion of the process. It was only ever about losing and that's what the franchise does.

BBTV Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 The Sixers blew leads of 18 and 25 to lose two games of this series. And Glenn Rivers has a guaranteed contract. What's the incentive for losers like him and Ben Simmons to give any Fs? In the real world, neither of them would be able to hold any kind of job.

BBTV Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Philadelphia has been going through a bit of a "thing" with our Streets dept. and sanitation workers, and in many neighborhoods, trash and/or recycling hasn't been picked up for a couple of weeks. Those sanitation workers bust their asses, likely got covid because they had to work all through the pandemic, and are fighting just to get hazard pay, which should have been instantly granted to them but [pre-mod edit for politics]. Ben Simmons and Glenn Rivers should have to work on those trucks for a couple of weeks and see what it's like to really "work hard" in life - not "work hard" on a game court for a half hour. My guess is that neither one has really worked a day in their life. Their hearts are like Lebron's brain.

JerseyJimmy Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 the four teams left have a combined title drought of 217 years. all four have individual title droughts of 50 years or more. that is insane. 9 minutes ago, Unocal said: If you’re TNT, is this the worst possible ECF from a ratings perspective? why do people always dismiss Atlanta?

Crabcake Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 I don’t really watch the NBA a lot (I’ve been following these playoffs though cause they’ve been freakin’ amazing). And even I know that when you can’t play one of your “stars” in the last minute of Game 7 because of limitations in his game, that’s brutal. That’s not the kind of stuff you want to be paying max money for. On the flip side, I’ve been kind of bandwagoning with Atlanta because I absolutely love the swagger Trae plays with. It’ll be interesting to see how they handle the Bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
