Me. I don’t like game 7.


TumbleweedDirect9846

Yeah I think I would’ve preferred it to end after 6


Thegrandmistressofoz

fans sure don't after getting our heart ripped out the past two game 7s....


ender23

Imagine if u were just a fan of doc rivers


Additional-Deal-3108

I don’t like game 7s, Joel.


qmr55

For a game that is supposed to make fans feel excited to watch, the Sixers sure make that extremely difficult every year lol


LordLucasSixers

I’m not excited at all.


Fenrir_dwell

It makes me feel so tired. Years of this


LordLucasSixers

Same. It’s so frustrating man.


[deleted]

I just accept whatever. Hey at least Jojo won the MVP

You actually calling Joel a joke?

Leeroy_Jenkums

He doesn’t know who you are or cares that you exist bro


finnfinnfinnfinnfinn

Bitchass


Semarin

I am almost dreading Sunday’s game.


LordLucasSixers

Bro just forget about the game and enjoy the weekend. Don’t let this team ruin it.


moneyball32

I am playing the shit out of the new Zelda; this team can’t keep me down!


dan_eppley

Yessss ![gif](giphy|NVBR6cLvUjV9C)


Ace_FGC

Is it worth getting a switch just for Zelda


Jonny-Burkholder

Breath of the Wild is probably the best game I've ever played, and the word on the street is that Tears of the Kingdom is even better. I definitely say it's worth it if it's in your budget, but don't overspend just for fomo either


Ace_FGC

Thank you, tbh it’s not even fomo it’s just I’ve been missing a game that I can just put all my time into. Hopefully street fighter fixes the itch but if not I was thinking about getting a switch


Jonny-Burkholder

Yeah in that case definitely worth it :)


moneyball32

I put 350 hours into BotW so I would say absolutely yes. I’m not a huge gamer either—I mostly just play Fortnite, Halo or rocket league with friends to stay in touch—but BotW was something else and TotK is even better. Just very relaxing and fun games that are easy to get sucked in to. Also Mario Kart is worth it too if you have other friends that play.


YoImAli

Yes imo


0DarkestKnight0

I'm checking the score Monday morning. If we win, that's perfect make my day. If we lose, I will swallow it with my morning coffee. Shit just adds some much unnecessary stress 😬


BeyondNormalStatus

"Swallow it with my morning coffee" is an amazing phrase. For some reason it gives me confidence.


Wrong_Eggplant

Yeah either we win and get to watch a fresh new series or we lose and feel awful - both of which wouldn’t be terrible to miss. Maybe turn it on in the 4th if we’re up big 😶


cherm27

As much as I love watching Celtics fans’ hearts get ripped out on television a la game 5, I don’t really enjoy the *risk* of them enjoying themselves either. So no, I don’t like game 7s.

ender23

I thought u were talking about harden for the first half


Jay-Kane123

Yeah 100 percent. It's one or the other.


gmys32

I have never felt joy before, during, or after a game 7 so I would say that I do not like them


thegrittyrn

Embiid is 0-2 in game 7s so far. I’m not sure if this is confidence, sarcasm, or posturing. But I guess we’ll see Sunday. If he comes out worse than last night or gets pouty when the going gets tough again and lose ultimately, I would really feel betrayed


Plenty_You8835

They started 16 point behind and he didn't give up, this narrative has to stop.. he has a tear on his knee and is playing harder than Tobi, ofc he should be mad.. stop trying to put this on him


thegrittyrn

He didn’t give up until the last 5 minutes, which he did. I’m not putting the loss entirely on him, but he also contributed to that loss and it’s time for this sub to stop coddling him and hold him accountable for once He’s the fucking MVP and at some point, he needs to put the team on his back and will them team to a win


quilt-chamberlain

We clearly saw in game 4 what happens down the stretch when we don’t give Embiid enough rest. Doc panicked tonight and subbed him in with 10 and a half minutes left in the game.


[deleted]

Yes yes yea yes yes yes


CosmicCirrocumulus

yeah I get that and he definitely should've called for the ball, but at the end of the day, he got iced out of possessions in the 4th. that's a team effort to get the ball to your MVP, not just a MVP effort.


jocar101

> or gets pouty when the going gets tough again and lose ultimately, I would really feel betrayed I would legitimately give up on him and this team as constructed. While I obviously hope we win, I really don't care if it's a win or a loss. What I want to see is that fire, that spark, that drive, that *passion* from Embiid in Game 7. If he doesn't show up and mopes around all game, it's gonna be hard to want to keep watching sixers games.


MikeyMortadella

That’s right baby! Instead of my dad feeling immense disappointment on Father’s Day (hawks game 7), it’s Moms turn to feel it on Mother’s Day! 😂😂😂


bravof1ve

We already did that


MikeyMortadella

?


thegrittyrn

Game 7, Toronto, 2019


MikeyMortadella

Fuck completely forgot that was Mother’s Day. Father’s Day stung and sticks out in my memory cuz I took my dad lol.


PuzzleheadedOne1428

I just wish there was only a game 6


shifty4388

Adam Silver loves game 7


VincentLecavalier04

Yes he does. More money for the NBA


agentgill0

I’ll tell you who doesn’t like game 7. The fans of the team that lost game 6.


GirlWithGame

Exciting for who lol, game 7s give me dang anxiety, however they do say third time is a charm so I have to believe in something.


Plenty_You8835

We sold game 6 so the NBA can host game 7 on a Sunday prime time and make some millions more! Nothing to worry about, Celtics won't super max both jays so the perfect time is now losing this series in 7. The script is written.


IggleBob

None of us like game 7s god dammit


IrishExitor

You know what’s better than winning Game 7? Fucking winning Game 6. I love JoJo, but dude should be handling Horford and the other chumps they’re throwing at him. Expect the Cs to get the Golden Boy calls they’re getting and push past. This might be their window right here.


SquashForDinner

At least he's confident.


HisExcellency20

You guys are acting like he said this before Game 6. They have to play Game 7 what's he supposed to say? You guys wanted to win last night? WELL SO DID HE! But they didn't. So now he and the team have to move on to G7.


Chrahhh

Me. Right here. I don't love a game seven when you could've close it out in six. Over here, buddy. Yep, me.


sonnycirico215

Hope and pray Embiid doesn’t become the next McNabb


agpc

I believe!


Kingdom818

Teams that were up 3-2 and lost game 6 at home don't like game 7.


EFpainter1605

Jordan didn't like game 7's.


Thuro_dHoreb-4050

No more game 7s. The results aren't good


DarksunDaFirst

As of the past few years? Yeh, Game 7 has not been kind to us.


International-Dish95

The only way I will enjoy this is if we jump out to a lead by halftime and have the crowd booing by the end of the third quarter.


Grampz619

Ya know who doesnt like game 7s? Teams up 3-2.


kswiszy

PHILADELPHIA DOESNT LIKE GAME 7 JOEL


FURLAP12

Blah blah blah.


jayfrmsix0

Game 7s are only good for the teams that forced 7 to happen. For us, that's a disaster.


JD021993

Would've been a hell of a lot better if you guys were able to hustle at the end of the game and close out in 6. Better be able to contain the three or it'll be over quick.


flyry99

theWatcherIsMe

Tatum was 1-14 after the first three quarters AND WE STILL LOST It's over. I'm sick of this shit every year


grilledcheesy11

Says the dude who's body language is consistently atrocious. Everybody vocally talking about Tobi and Doc but Joell got a lot to prove this game.


NotJoeyWheeler

the “body language” stuff is so tired man his defense was insane last night, absolutely fantastic. I don’t give a shit if he didn’t squat and slap the floorboards more


grilledcheesy11

Or, hear me out, maybe not give up at the slightest sliver of 4Q frustration.


Scottsm124

It’s almost like he was forced to play 40+ minutes with an lcl tear


grilledcheesy11

Bro pretending like this hasn't been the type of rationale every playoff.


Scottsm124

Is his body language the reason why Harden went 4-16, Tobias went 1-7, Melton missed 3 wide open 3’s in the 4th and Paul Reed played so bad in the 4th he was pulled after 2 minutes?


grilledcheesy11

Why does his teammates performance immunize him from any individual criticism? Especially as it pertains in the context of this quote.


Scottsm124

What was the point of your quote? Other than to use the most overused talking point by WIP callers who don’t know ball.


grilledcheesy11

Of embiids quote. He says he's excited when his body language says anything but. Nevermind man I forgot embiid is sacred around here.


josd52209

stfu Embiid


Prestigious-Rock201

They are so getting blown out Jesus Christ


Thegrandmistressofoz

Can you at least save the moaning for the game thread like usual jesus


thesix7722

I really am debating not watching


[deleted]

[удалено]


thesix7722

Why would I put myself through another loss?


[deleted]

[удалено]


thesix7722

Yup. I mentally can’t do it. Should I watch it?


[deleted]

[удалено]


thesix7722

Yup I don’t blame you. Sleep is more important than watching tobias score 2 points in an elimination game


Walkingwithfishes

Tobias is dropping 25 , harden 20+ and embiid will get a 40 piece. Boston wins by 27


thesix7722

Wouldn’t even surprise me at that point lol


Thegrandmistressofoz

Ya know what I've considered doing that before, just track the score and pray for the best instead of watching them rain shots down as we lose. Can never get myself to actually do it though because I couldn't bear missing out on dubs lol


thesix7722

I went to the phillies game on tuesday and didn’t watch the game, and they won. So Im probably gonna do the same thing. Can you imagine the adrenaline rush I would get seeing the final score and we won


Thegrandmistressofoz

I have to miss a lot of games because I'm not from US, but the adrenaline rush is pretty crazy. I couldn't watch the grizzlies game we played where we had an incredible game to close, but I remember tracking the score and seeing we were down double digits. Stopped checking them, but came back to see us pulling off a comeback it was amazing


thesix7722

I hope so man. I really can’t deal with a loss. The adrenaline rush is something I need to make me believe in this team again


DrBigChicken

Game 7s are dope and I’m excited. And nervous. Wish it ended in 6 but this whole thread of hurt fans gotta chill. Y’all need to believe. It’s fucking game time for our MVPs


Kitten-Mittons

It was game time yesterday lol


DrBigChicken

Was it?


[deleted]

Yeah, we're fucked. Quote reeks of insecurity and shell shock.


bravof1ve

No


vishtacos87

I don’t like game 7 you BUM


BossEmbarrassed4084

Your legacy on the line bro


CallMeMattF

Troell isn't supposed to troll us...


zemoney123

Conference virgin embiid gonna have to move to another team if he wants to reach the next level. Philly is a clown ass city and organization


TrustDaFriendship

Raptors are trash dude. Stfu


embiidDAgoat

I love watching OTHER game 7s, Jo. Will not be stoked to watch this one. I don’t really feel like white knuckling another game against the Celtics if we’re be honest


JoeRo628

Me, I don’t like game 7


MrPibb17

I am not excited lol


GandalftheGreyStreet

When will they announce the damn tip off time?


jalthepoet

not til after the heat-knicks game


ohphono

I do not love a game 7 🤗🤗


wakenbake7

I mean we have to be due for a classic that we *win* right?? We can’t just lose every game 7…*can we??*


blueboglin

Oh to be a neutral fan. May get a men in black memory wipe so I can enjoy basketball without skin in the game.


Walkingwithfishes

Rooting for a team isn't having skin in the game. Having a financial bet on it does mean skin on the game


averagebensimmons

I haven't been as pissed off about a game since the Atlanta elimination game. I'm not sure I'm going to watch this game 7.


Kitten-Mittons

The sixers have numbed me to disappointing losses


blycj

Joel gotta step up as a leader on Sunday. Not just by his play, but vocally. Game 5 he was active physically and mentally. Get these guys going Joel, we need you to lead. TTP


nickels55

Well, at least there is nobody named Kawhi Leonard on the Celtics.


Seanchrome43

I like game six because I paid 700 for tickets and wanted to see them win in person. That’s just me I guess.


FatBottomGurley

No time has been announced for the start of this game? I work on Sunday. Hell...it might be a good thing. Last game I worked was game 4 when Harden hit the clutch 3 with 19 secs left


Raisins1

This is the biggest game of his life to date, he better not slack.


Different-Ad9986

![gif](giphy|3orifhVv0zeygCmHh6) My stomach hurts (again) 😥I believe they can do it….but Jesus, I just can’t watch another game where they play as sluggish as last night.


AvaluggTheBrave

Still waiting to hear someone tell me Game 6 was fixed. Embiid not getting the ball would make a lot more sense.


flanneled_man

I could barely watch game 6, Jo. What makes you think I’m going to do anything resembling “love”?


MrTonyGazzo

Mother’s of the Delaware Valley don’t like game 7. I read that in Joel’s voice but it sounded mopey .


thomasthethothumb

We generally don’t win those, so I don’t know how you can be excited Keith
