Don't be fooled by their 8-2 start

The bulk of their wins have come from crappy teams like the Blazers,Wizards ect

They're still the same old Philly against actual competition

Lost to the Bucks and Pacers and currently getting bullied on their home floor against the Celtics

The Celtics may have been able to overcome the absence of Brown and Porzingis but zI don't know if they can deal with a jinx thread from Manny.

The Celtics will never beat us in a playoff series again. Marcus smart was the heart and soul of that team. He made back breaking spirit breaking plays….without his dagger clutch 3’s And momentum swinging steals/blocks they are nothing. The same way the grizzlies are nothing without Dillon the villain the Celtics are nothing without smart

As long as Horford (Embiids Kryptonite l) is on the Celtics you're not beating them in a 7 game series

How are you losing at home to Celtics team missing 2 of their stars :facepalm

Porzingis will be hurt by playoff time

I wouldn't exactly call Philly pretenders. They're a solid team. The Celtics are superior though, and I don't expect Philly to make it out of the conference come the playoffs.

Horford miraculously hits 3s on Philly all the time. Embiid shits in him regularly. He's not.Kryptonite. Boston always elevates against us. It's called a rivalry. That's why nobody's like White play well against us. Just like in the 80s.

I hate them so much

Derrick White is a good player that can always do more if asked. He raised his output because Brown and Porzingis were out and expecting Tatum to drop 60 on demand isn't realistic.

Joel Embellish been pretending his way to MVP offensive production for a long time. And many gave him the benefit of the doubt, until all Knicks fans, and much of the rest of the world, saw Joel for the dirty, dishonest piece of sh!t he is. All that talent, but the way he plays isn’t worthy of the respect/accolades he wants.

There's nothing off, a good regular season team that gets bounced out early in the playoffs

That sums up Philly the past 6 years

I have been think about this all the last two days.

Embiid is apparently this amazing regular season player theat can't get it done in the playoffs when he regresses statistically.

But if expectations are so high come playoffs and he is considered a choker because of performance in the regular season, why do the Sixers never have a high seed in the playoffs?

Obviously their regular seasons are not that great or he and the team would have HCA and be playing a less superior team.

There has been disappointing games for sure, there are plenty of good ones too that get forgotten about on purpose, for agenda. The only true choking was against the Hawks in 2021, the only time the Embiid era Sixers have lost in the playoffs to a lower seed.

I get he is the only MVP to not make the Conference Finals and he is injured a lot, but ultimately the Sixers aren't really "pretending " anything. They just haven't had a team that was good enough and the regular season record over the last 6 years has reflected that.

Simply do better in the regular season and it gives a team a better chance in the playoffs. The Sixers just haven't been good enough in that regard.

Looking back at it all I'm not sure why the expectations for success have been so high with the team depending on upsets virtually every year to advance in the playoffs.

The high expectations for Philly were created by the high level of talent they collected through the process. The evaluation of that talent was so over the top because been Simmons was supposed to be a superstar. Philly fans know, he was a great defender, combing a PF's size with a wing's athleticism and a point guard's court vision. He won RoY over a number of star players. We all generally figured his shooting wasn't a big deal and just didn't know that he was this soft guy. But with him coming as spectacularly short of star standard in the playoffs as he did Philly was a one-star team masquerading as a collection of talent. Philly had a #1 pick that didn't even play like he belonged in the NBA, royally screwed up not signing Jimmy Butler and other high pick wastes in Noel and Okafor. The perceived talent they brought in made it seem like they should be great, basically.

Yet despite this they still have to play a team as good or better in the first round without homecourt. The Knicks are the 2 seed and now overwhelming favs to make the conference finals.

It only reinforces my point that they Sixers are not good enough in the regular season to set themselves up for playoff success.

I get it was a tight race in the East, but it still doesn't change the fact or the result.

If they were better they would have a higher seed, with HCA and playing a lesser team. Thats how the league works.

Despite this they are still expected to beat the higher seed every year to make the Conference Finals, 2021 not included.

It's pretty ridiculous the guy hasn't made a single conference final when over that same timeframe guys like Dame, Trae, PG & Luka have been able to, all without HCA in the 2nd round, and with teams no better than Embiid's. I don't think one trip past the 2nd round for an MVP is that high of an expectation, to be frank it's kind of the bare minimum to expect of a player considered top 3-5 in the league.

I think the fundamental and higher expectation for a MVP, a regular season award, should be to lead his team to a better regular season.
