All fair points.I dont want to speak for Jack but i think it was more about the WAY it happened...showing no heart...Philly is one of the "toughest" blue collar cities in the world and the fans expect their teams to put for some effort..you got these players out here making millions of dollars and the only people showing any heart was the young players(Maxey and Milton)..Embiid was trying but he could only do so much
Miami played us off the floor last night. I wasn't expecting anything from Harden or Doc. Philly's season went as far as Embiid could carry them.
As someone who has called for the team to trade him in the past, Embiid gets my upmost respect for this playoff run. The human shoulders can only carry an entire team for but so long.
And had the game been close, management may have wanted to keep Doc around. With a blown out, I'm just expecting that tweet from Woj any day now that Doc is out.
It had to be this way.
