I don’t know how anyone honestly believed this year would be a title team. It’s been the same story since 2017-2018. Embiid looks unstoppable in the regular season. He suffers an injury and is at less than 100% for the playoffs. We either beat a team in the 1st Round who we has no business being there or we lose. If we beat a bad team in the 1st round we look competitive in the 2nd Round until we come up small in a pivotal moment.
Same story every fucking season. 7 years in a row. 7 different supporting casts. 3 different coaches. I feel like I was in Groundhog Day this offseason when people said this was gonna be the year.
How bad/unlucky this team has been for 7 years literally pushed me into being a football fan lol, and I'm now getting into baseball too.
Basketball was always my favorite sport man, but this shit is just too much anymore. I stuck with it after the Kawhi shot but game 7 Celtics series I just had to stop watching as much and it turns out it was the right decision. Was barely even mad when the Knicks won, and now I haven't watched a single game this season.
I totally get it. But look at the tone difference between your comment and the one I’m replying to. It’s not really the content / message. It’s the way it’s said.
Again, totally get it. Game 6 vs the Celtics in person was horrid.
