He's a fucking funny dude. That's what I like most about him. I want him to succeed so bad because of that. All the better that he's a 76er too. Easily my favorite since Iverson.

*knock on wood* before I end up putting some kind of curse, but...
It is kind of weird looking back. Joel Embiid is becoming what Greg Oden was supposed to be, but even better. The hype train is rolling and will just keep getting bigger and bigger once Embiid gets taken off of his minute count. If Simmons lives up to and exceeds his hype the way Embiid has, the 76ers are going to be VERY dangerous.

0-6 and counting. The dream of a perfect season continues......
How's your NBA team doing?
About as well as a talented, scrappy team missing 3 of their top players due to injury could be expected. Of course I'm not from a delusional fan base and realize that,as much talent as the celt have, they don't have anyone that would be able to crack the top 3 players of any of the legitimate contenders. They are fun to watch and over achieve and with some luke and the right trade in the year or 2, they COULD be a team that contends.
What they are NOT is a team that has been on a multi year seemingly endless rebuilding journey.

Any other questions😀
How many years would you say is multi year?
So you see the end of the Celtics rebuild? The end is in sight?
It's not just that you poo poo on Philly. But you seem obsessed over it.

Glass houses kiddo.
They have, I believe, 2 winning seasons in the last 13 years and there is no end in sight.
I have no idea when the celts will be real contenders, that is a matter of luck and good choices. The current celts management did it a few years ago, so there is more of a track record.
And the first post in this thread was so over the top it tickled me. The fact that the thread is still around under the circumstances tickles me more. I actually have no ill will towards the OP or the 76ers beyond having some fun. Is that ok with you kiddo?!

Are you jealous they have players to be excited about and the Celts have no real prospects?
I don't care if you're having fun. Doesn't stop me from having fun too. And pointing out that the dream of Philly being contenders is way closer than the Celts is pretty fun.

Well I care if I'm having fun and I'm having fun having you try to explain to me how good a team that has been pretty bad for over a decade and isn't any better this year than they have been the last couple of years is "close" to a championship.
I will agree that if they have a couple of more years of being as bad as they have been and are now there is no reason the starting 5 and probably a significant number of the bench players shouldn't be lottery picks.
You might be right they might be contenders before the celts. I don't really think it is possible for them to continue to be as bad as they have been but I'm sure you will educate me if I'm wrong😀

it is because he obsessed over it. I never said the Sixers would be a contender before the Celtics either so he likes to put words into my mouth so he can talk about the Celtics. Boston fans...
Also I said the sixers would be bottom 5 again this year. He is a very poor troll that keeps bringing up the same "dream team" garbage that nobody even said lol. So dont feed him unless he comes back with better stuff.
we might actually win this time. Im not falling for it though, they have tricked me too many times. I have seen this same game 20 times in the last year and they always end with a melt down.
A win would be the 2nd least likely thing to happen in the last 24 hours though, especially without jojo
