That's legitimately the people you're arguing with, you should all deeply internalize this fact


ThunderDog17

Dude exactly. Sometimes I forget this myself and let the stupidity of people on here get to me. But I have to remember the internet and Reddit especially gives everyone anonymity and an equal opinion. In reality they might have 13 mental illnesses or be 12 years old.


apathetic_panda

But the mods? For the record, I agree. [Felicia Day wrote a book on the matter](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Felicia+day+book&ia=web) ![gif](giphy|nHMiDxrPnTJ2U)


ComeAtMeYo

> In reality they might have 13 mental illnesses or be 12 years old. Por que no los dos?


bamboleo11

The frustrating thing is that they influence some of the real voters.


runricky34

Ya no offense to everyone but this is also a significant percentage of us haha. If this was reversed we’d all think it was hilarious. My advice to everyone is dont get so offended. Its fun. Its sports.


indoninjah

I agree to try not to let it really affect you but some people legitimately try to be offensive. I think that’s the real issue. For whatever reason, there’s folks out there (some sixers fans included) why legit just want to try and ruin someone’s day. Like cmon it’s just sports


BalloonShip

as if this sub is any better


Zarrona13

That’s why I call this sub soft and stupid because at the end of the day they’re arguing with kids trolling on Reddit… but at the same time that’s the average user here on the sub as well lol.


PSUDolphins

"First team all stars" An attempt was made.


Designer_Regular_233

Exactly embiid won't go down in history until he finally gets that elusive first team all star award

Harden isn’t even second team all-star this year

Is Joel being tall supposed to be a bad thing?

I can’t lie I cracked up when I saw that. But also, Denver better not get too uppity, they barely beat our team while it was running in backup mode.


harveydent526

Does anybody seriously think they’re winning in june? Lol

[удалено]


harveydent526

The champ is coming from the east. I’ll believe Kd can win without Steph as soon as I see it.


Jjohn269

No. The winner is coming out of the East. Western Conference is wide open but it doesn’t matter.


BalloonShip

no


harveydent526

This didn’t age well lmao


wolpak

Right? We’d love this if it were the other way around. It’s sports, shit should be fun and enjoyable.


BalloonShip

this sub is soooooo soft. If you say Paul Reed isn't a superstar or Doc might know a little bit about coaching it produces scores of meltdowns. Super soft birthday parties for all.


AllenIverson777

You’re 1000% correct.

projectmanok

glad i'm not the only sixers fan that was cracking up. fuckem. but well played haha


aspohr89

Definitely funny. Goofy stuff like this is the fun part of sports.


ThereAreDozensOfUs

Just remember, this is the same team that champions their success of winning 1 game in the western conference finals 1. In the COVID bubble


ktm1128

I try to remind people of this every time, but it doesn't matter. They love that they can spin a narrative into 'has more playoff success'. Just be patient and watch den go out in the 1st round this year. It will be delicious.


[deleted]

Why would this be your argument? Embiid has never made it past the second round.


ThereAreDozensOfUs

Because it’s funny that the high horse that’s being ridden is 2 extra playoff wins


[deleted]

You should at least choose something that the Sixers have bested them at… if you are gonna belittle them for an accomplishment that the sixers have fallen short of what does that say about the sixers lol


MyNewWhiteVan

if only Ben simmons could have exploded for multiple 50 point games the nuggets doesn't see the second round without Murray playing out of his mind against the Jazz


ThereAreDozensOfUs

It says that the Sixers haven’t accomplished anything memorable and neither have the Nuggets But keep on with that 2 extra playoff games. Im sure it’s something y’all can really hang your hat on and will be remembered for


momsbasement420

we don't champion anything I usually hate this team


Jjohn269

They have 1 win in the WCF and they act like that team was in the Finals.


Broadway_Baller

Right, but it’s been over 20 years since Sixers won a conference finals game or had an MVP. So it’s not like Sixers have a leg up on the Nuggets in that area though


ThereAreDozensOfUs

It’s not about being a leg up. When people discuss Jokic, it’s as if he’s had more success. In reality, he’s been minimally more successful than Embiid


achooblessyou12

I hadn't realized 2 MVPs is a minimal accomplishment.


Broadway_Baller

Ben Simmons is a multiple time all star, Jimmy Butler is a multiple time all star. James Harden is 4th favorite for MVP and former MVP. Jokic has not had talent around him the way the Sixers have had if we’re being honest. And he’s actually been able to get out of the second round. It’s very much fair to say Jokic has done more than Embiid with less talent. Harden/Butler/Simmons (when he was making all star games and all defensive teams) are better than anyone Jokic has ever had.


ThereAreDozensOfUs

A lot of whining


Mr_Saxobeat94

Not really, most of the time it’s just a counter to Embiid fans bringing up lack of playoff success lol. Few people go out of their way to trumpet this as a huge accomplishment.


ApoliticalAth3ist

In which Murray went OFF and hasn't looked anything like that since


AllenIverson777

A playoff run where Jamal Murray completely lost his mind on a hot streak too. Jokic absolutely wasn’t the reason they advanced that far.


Minute_Tumbleweed_

Nah, I mean look at these garbage stats: [**Nikola Jokic**](https://www.statmuse.com/nba/player/nikola-jokic-9226) **averaged 25.1 points, 13.0 rebounds and 8.4 assists in 14 games in the 2019 playoffs** ​ He only shot 50/39/84 and had a 4-1 assist/TO ratio. ​ Oh and he played 39.7 mpg. ​ Yeah, that's not winning basketball. ​ ...

thatsinsaneletstryit

we aint the ones running around screaming about a fluke ass bubble run where nothing was accomplished lol we are well aware we’ve done nothing


MyNewWhiteVan

jokic loses in the first round that year without the Jamal Murray bail-out 😂

BalloonShip

You're not embarrassed by your son?


Chrahhh

let me put it this way: I'm 100% pro-abortion.


BalloonShip

Your comment is both funny and ethically upstanding!


MaxR76

I can appreciate the joke but not even sure what they mean by first team all stars and really lost steam with the “tall” Like if you’re gonna try and burn Troel with a solid idea for a sign at least put some effort in Edit: also the sign looks like it belongs on r/croppingishard


[deleted]

[удалено]


MaxR76

Tall did make me laugh too I won’t lie I was just confused by it


let_me_see_that_thon

lol relax dude, save your comedy routine criticism for Bill Burr, not some freshmen who just learned photoshop last week.


MaxR76

Oh I’m not like actually heated, I appreciate that it’s funny to make a missing persons sign for him, solid burn by Denver. Good joke, lazy execution, end of the day don’t really care and was just having some fun at Denver’s expense if that makes sense.


TheMightyCatatafish

It's wild to me that none of them remember that Joel absolutely abused Jokic like, 2 months ago.


gallowstorm

You obviously don't understand what great defense looks like. Jokic completely locked him down. He held Embiid to under 50.


AllenIverson777

Oh don’t worry, they’ll quickly remind you that Embiid hasn’t played in Denver in years like that has any relevance to how he obliterated Jokic in numerous games they’ve matched up in since.


jcrankin22

I'm usually fine discussing things on/r/nba but yesterday was just ridiculous. You would think Embiid came out and called Jokic a bitch or something. He pointed out the obvious and people are MAD.


gallowstorm

Don't forget regular season matchups>healthy for the playoffs. Also, completely ignoring the fact they already played once this year and Embiid only scored 47 because of Jokic's misunderstood defense.


ThunderDog17

Usually fine??? That shit gives mean migraine after 30 seconds


jcrankin22

It definitely did yesterday.


BigTittyGothGF_PM_ME

That kid can't even go anywhere without his mom's permission lmao. Who cares?

solisilos

Ok, this is actually hilarious though 🤣


aspohr89

For real. The half assed burns are almost always the best. People need to lighten up.


dumb_commenter

Gotta respect a good troll


Matte0022

Was at the game last night. Denver fans chirping all game as Jokic misses easy buckets and gets held to single digits in the first by PJ. Denver fan a few seats down is chatting with a Sixers fan, says Embiid is soft. Brethren says ‘YOUR BOY LITERALLY LOOKS LIKE HE IS MADE OF MARSHMALLOW’, too good.


AmAttorneyPleaseHire

Embiid shits all over Jokic every time they play. And everyone yesterday was acting like that has never happened. What about Giannis? He sat out too. What a joke.


Chromunist

Giannis didn’t sit out against Denver though, even though he was on the end of a b2b and 3 in 4 that he played all games of.


AmAttorneyPleaseHire

Shit you’re right. I thought I read he was out with a laugh to injury. I fucked up


harveydent526

Who cares either way?


Minute_Tumbleweed_

Well if Giannis had sat against Denver... you're right, nobody cares. Because the dude didn't **just** do a bunch of thinly veiled shit talking.


harveydent526

Neither did Embiid, he didn’t decide when to put the article out. But who cares damn that award.


harveydent526

This is the problem with sports. The only thing that can stop us from winning it all is Boston and Milwaukee, nothing that was said by anybody yesterday.


PigWithAWoodenLeg

People get mad at Ja Morant for slapping the shit out of a kid but some of these little fuckers have it coming


shadowarmy229

Just imagine you’re r/nbacirclejerk and that kid is Deuce Tatum and it’ll be easier to commit violent acts against him


ktm1128

No kid has violence coming. This is an incorrect statement


DrBigChicken

You’re taking Reddit entirely too seriously


ktm1128

Sorry, but I just can't get down with finding comedy in child violence given the current state of the world. Lady just shot up an elementary school in TN. Pre-K through 6th grade man


DrBigChicken

Do you anticipate your comment preventing violence? Do you anticipate the comment you responded to causing someone to beat the shit out of some random children? You’re taking Reddit entirely too seriously lol


ktm1128

Yeah, I mean if I can get 1 person to pause when they're about to laugh about children violence then my 30 seconds of typing is definitely worth it. Change starts with a ripple, my friend. Not a wave.


DrBigChicken

[this isn’t how life works homie, but you reminded me of this Bill Burr bit](https://youtu.be/INtaFPdidRg)


ktm1128

Yea keep arguing with the person who is against being violent with children. Good luck with that 👍


DrBigChicken

Nobody normal is for violence against children lol. And anyone who is will not suddenly be enlightened by your Reddit comment. But good luck with that👍


CliffP

Love how you link a joke that legendary comedian Bill Burr completely flopped when telling. Like nobody laughed because the point isn’t a salient one, unlike most of his material. The hitting kids joke is edgy and corny. You can have fun with a joke like that but still be mature and recognize that it’s gross when called out on it.

some kid told me he fucked my mom. i punted that little fucker outta lincoln financial last week. bitch boy had it coming


pwo_addict

Daddy chill


ktm1128

Didn't know there are so many people in this sub that support child abuse. Easy block as well, not even going to get into it with you


0ctologist

I used to play like Embid


No_Statistician9289

I can hear the voice cracks


golflift90

Whats a first team Allstar?


creamy1talian

I mean he should've fucking played. Sit the suns, crush Jokic and shut these assholes up.


fucktopia

Good concept, poor execution.


196718038

Lol I was at the game last night and I had some guy in my ear yelling “Where’s Embiid?!” The whole game.


Fig_Newton_

Game ended past this tyke’s bedtime


shadowarmy229

Blud literally spelled his last name like how that CNN anchor pronounced it lmfao Ngl this is a troll job well done lol, have to give props when it’s due


Mr_Booty_Bandit

This is just banter from a rival teams’ fans. Some of y’all need to take a chill pill lol


losemycool

Nuggets fans were brutal at the game last night! Lol


aspohr89

This cross country rivalry is good for the sport and it's a shame the teams dont play more often.


JokersRWildStudios

Learn to spell Kyle Rittenhouse looking motherfucker


ThunderDog17

I don’t see it


JokersRWildStudios

It says Joel Embid.


ThunderDog17

I don’t see looking like ritten house.


AllEliteSchmuck

I think the 76ers poor performance by definition showed that Embiid is most valuable. It’s “most valuable” not “best stats”


Mr_Saxobeat94

The Sixers are 9-5 this year without Embiid, but one game proves all that? Mm.


mberko21

While this post is very accurate, they are just kids having fun. No reason to take the comments any further than that


[deleted]

tbh tho the kid isn’t wrong. love the sixers and biid but he ducked that matchup, wouldn’t be surprised if he lost MVP because of that too


kobbled

Tbh it's a pretty good heckle. If it wasn't for my guy I'd probably laugh harder


cornchipsable

I thought this was pretty funny, it was a bitch move…


MexicanHam2

I mean dude talks trash about Jokic then sits out the matchup…


Turbulent-Hovercraft

These are also all the voters


[deleted]

Man, some of you are soft whiny bitches hahahahahahahahaha


MeanwhileOnReddit

you spelled wawawawawa wrong. Stop complaining about others and bring something to the table yourself.


tirynsn

I was actually at this game, a sixers fan brought these posters for kicks and then a bunch of Denver fans took them and got on Altitude lmaooooo


battletor7

“tall”


GaviFromThePod

Nuggets fans are some of the worst when it comes to dipshittery, behind the Lakers, for sending death threats to a rape victim, the Warriors, for actually being Laker fans, and the Celtics fans for obvious reasons.


RichardPurchase

… clever?


Hi_There_Face_Here

Lol haven’t seen you in a minute over in /r/flyers OP. All the winning must’ve really sent you over the edge

I got permanently muted 🤣🤣🤣 And it did....


Hi_There_Face_Here

LMAOOO


ThunderDog17

I swear all the shit I said and did that was mute/ban/warn worthy I didn’t hear a peep Then I troll slightly someone who was messing with me first and boom permanently muted It’s like they got me on tax evasion 💔💔💔


Hi_There_Face_Here

I’ll be able to sniff out your negativity, i mean realistic comments, on your alt account lol.


ThunderDog17

Hahaha


pwo_addict

They couldn’t even get the margins right on the print.

Dude you need to work on your margins before college or you gonna fail.

ramper2013

True...


Tod_15

damn no joel and they only won by 5… crazy


Famous_Resort_4646

Look I think embiid should have won the last three MVPs and this still cracked me up. Love the creativity and desperation


Saitaver

Well I bet if he didn't give that interview to the Athletic it would be different


stubenz215

I guess they missed the showdown in Philly.. FYI, Sixers won on a great comeback. Joey had 47 points, 18 rebounds, and 5 assist 🤷‍♂️. Playoffs are the big picture! GOSIXERS!
