On a side note when has Philly won?
Please let me know I'll wait.

Also please sit down. Even embiid has admitted that the words certain people(NOT ME) have said about him in the past have been correct. That he hears them and wants to change the narrative.
Not exactly sure why you think you should come @ me for basically word vomiting what ex-pros have said about him... When Embiid agrees it's CORRECT.

Then considering Philly is in the exact same spot they were before the process. 1st round floor, 2nd round ceiling(unless they get a great matchup or injuries take place)... My words there are correct also.
People on this sf think Philly winning a chip is guaranteed because of "the process". It's not.
Acting like Philly is the first team ever in the history of sports to employ "the process" in an attempt to win a ring.... They're not.

Biggest criticism of embiid is that he came back in the game and due to one legit charge. He decided to take fadeaway/fallaway jumpers the rest of the game.
This man is too talented to do that. He's more talented than Shaq.
Which I've said multiple times... But it gets glossed over because people like you think I'm a Philly Hater. It's easier to say that for you.. Than actually have a legit discussion.
Completely forgetting the fact that my very first basketball jersey that I asked my biologicals for 3-4 years as a child was an Iverson jersey. Which I still own and is signed. I also have an Eric Snow jersey from his time in philly and Aaron Mckie. Do you even know who these players are?
Insert your random qq about my post or how it's tldr. Which is exactly why I go MIA on this SF. People who do that show they aren't worth talking to.
There are a couple people who are "well respected" members of this forum that I talk to often.
I don't care about injuries. You're either healthy enough to play. Or you're not and shouldn't be out there.

I still can't fathom how big of a tool you have to be to associate yourself with "well respected" members of a forum for a 20year old game to seem more important.

why are you going on a tirade about embiid? I agree with you. His health is a big issue with him. Did you quote the wrong guy?

not one sixers fan thinks that a championship is guaranteed because of the process. The process however did put them in a position to compete for one. We are seeing the fruits of that labor now.

You tried to be a badass and make a prediction in fucking January. If they make it out of the second round, you will have lost the very miniscule credibility you had.

Yeah, we've said it like a million times before...."the process" wasn't originated as a CHAMPIONSHIP OR BUST mentality lol. Hinkie even addressed it in his resignation letter.

The initial tank phase or "the process" as people still like to refer to it as was a success, period. It brought the franchise numerous All-Stars and franchise cornerstones, as well as allowed them to build with quality role players and make trades for good players. it got them out of the treadmill they were in which was a low seed, a first round exit, and a middle of the pack outside the top 10 draft pick (they rarely ever had top 10 picks).

It's only year 1 with Morey running the show too, and we all know he's going to have fireworks in the off-season.

They'll make it to the conference finals this year...

I mean Embiid and Simmons have only had two playoff runs together prior to this season, and one of those runs was rookie year.

I dont understand how people argue like this, you have legitimate points of criticism like Simmons inability to make 3s and free throw struggles with Embiid's questionable durability which heavily contributed to the loss yesterday, and then abandon it for some nonsense about the process failing, which it didn't, and some weird ass comparison of Simmons to Shaq despite it being very clearly the right decision for him to be on the bench in that scenario.

The fuck are you people smoking, even when you're right you found a way to be wrong.
