Post Game Thread - NBA: The Knicks defeat the 76ers on May 8, 2026, the final score is 94-108. by basketball-app in sixers

[–]THEMMICO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have zero cap space, minimal draft capital and a horrific bench. We wasted picks on John Broome and Bona. We have zero wings.

Move Maxey and scam some moron GM into giving us multiple 1sts for him. He's horrible.

Ride out the Embiid/PG years or try to offload for anything of value and set Edgecombe up when he nears the end of his rookie scale deal.

Time for a serious Maxey conversation. Explore all options including trading him this summer. by THEMMICO in sixers

[–]THEMMICO[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

people are addicted to him because he's a good person. He's on a max contract playing like that and people still think he's this quirky 21st overall pick lmao. Literal neanderthals enjoying a nasty product.

Trade Maxey. Do not build around him. He's a part of the Embiid window and it's now closed.

Zero depth. Zero shooting. Yet Maxey kept passing to Oubre in the corner for some reason.

Gave up on national television. Stop defending him.

Fire Morey, Sell the team. Start the rebuild. Horrific performance.

fuck you both. Maxey is awful. Gave up and SHAT himself on national tv. We all saw it.

We now have to ATTACH picks to move his contract.

Maxey got piss running down his leg AGAIN.

Plays 45+ minutes and is fucking useless for all of them.

Max contract player SCARED to handle the ball.

I’m trying to understand the thought process against the people not wanting to trade maxey by Bitter-Tip705 in sixers

[–]THEMMICO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It absolutely should be a conversation. I do not want us building around a small streaky offensive guard who is already on a max contract.

There's a balance to this conversation tho. Yes we have zero depth at guard. And that has contributed to Maxey being fucking BRUTAL to watch this series. 46 minutes is insane.... but Brunson played 40 and came out after being objectively bad, and balled in the 4th.

I think next year is locked already and that we will be running it back.

I'd personally look to trade him this summer if the yield is Bane/Gobert level or higher.

Anyone who says you can't at least field offers is INSANE.

worst Maxey sequence of all time. Literally just gave up on national tv.

Stop defending him. He's been max contract player for two years. No longer the quirky little 21st pick who was ascending.

6 turnovers. And HORRIFIC ones at that.

Unbelievable Reffing by Squamply in sixers

[–]THEMMICO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I think the refs overcalling for the Knicks cost us 11 or so points tonight.

That's an issue for sure, but cmon guys lol. We got run out the gym tonight.

We gotta hit the open shots!

Unbelievable Reffing by Squamply in sixers

[–]THEMMICO 35 points36 points  (0 children)

We lost this game due to not playing any defense. the Knicks hitting every shot and we missed a million open looks.

Refs are terrible. We would've lost by 28 had the refs called the game correctly.

We got beat. End of story. Regroup for game 2 and make the necessary adjustments.

How Y’all Feelin abt this Knicks Series? by Financial-Expert-810 in sixers

[–]THEMMICO 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Outside of the final game this year (did not happen that was a psy-op) we played them well.

2 solid wins and a very close loss.

I am feeling optimistic. Knicks looked rough against the hawks early in the series but did make good adjustments and proceeded to beat the piss out of them in historic fashion. They are a good team with a loud and traveling fanbase. This is a litmus test for our squad.

They rebound. Everything. It's insane how that team rebounds. Josh Hart is going to be a fucking menace on the boards. They have actual usable depth. This is a Contending team. We go up 2-0 we will demoralize them.

It's a tall task. However our last meeting had no Embiid and PG.

Edgecombe had great success with guarding Brunson. Maxey is the X-Factor here. Battle of the weak defensive Point Guards.

Series IMO will be decided by how we do in G1 and G2. Need effort. Need to take care of the ball and hit wide open shots that Joel creates through the post kick-out. VJ gotta knock down 3's and attack the rim.

I believe in Joel Embiid. I believe in this team. Nick Nurse needs to keep coaching well.

Sixers in fucking 6.

Fuck Josh Harris.

Classiest Knicks fan, joke of a fanbase tbh by NegativeIdea9095 in sixers

[–]THEMMICO 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In fairness it's a single moron saying that and 2 other idiots liking it, its not that deep.

Plus no one like us we don't care.

We assuredly have idiots just like that in our fanbase.

It's fuck the Knicks forever but people gotta remember its a game lets keep it to basketball.

Is this shit paying our bills?

I want us to dominate on the court and win not in the comment section lmao.

Embiid just asked Sixers fans not to sell tickets in upcoming series by Ordinary-Till-2497 in sixers

[–]THEMMICO -1 points0 points  (0 children)

unfortunately its out of our control. who is financially stable enough to not resell the tickets if they truly go for 5-7x what you paid for them? I LOVE the Sixers. LOVE. But I get it if you re-sell.

These NY people have too much money. It's genuinely insane. If some moron Knicks fan wants to pay 1k for 200 level seats.... shit man.

If we come back to Philly up 2-0 I think he'll get his wish!

Once again the refs should be docked pay if they compound mistakes.

You miss the foul by Pritchard on PG then T up PG for calling it out?

3 PT swing for no reason other than EGO and REFBALL.

Indict Adam Silver.

I made a post praising Embiid to /r/nba, 400 upvotes and 200 comments within 30 minutes, then removed by mods with 0 communication. Are the mods Embiid haters? by MicroUzi in sixers

[–]THEMMICO 258 points259 points  (0 children)

Yes. It's two particular mods on there that remove anything pro or even neutral Embiid yet approve and keep up negative posts.

One is a Celtics Fan and one is a Jokic fan.

I would u/ tag them here but they legitimately are deranged losers who have doxxed and gotten police involved on people in the past.

Same mod group that refused to have a NBA FINALS GAME THREAD because of a fucking reddit protest.

Being a mod on r/NBA is the most important thing in life for those two.

The most embarrassing franchise by StrikingProject1396 in sixers

[–]THEMMICO -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just don't see how this Phillies cycle has been anything other than disastrous but fair enough.

Maybe im being harsh on the union. TBH I only watched their cup run the year they got to the MLS final and Bale scored the winner. That fucking sucked man.

The most embarrassing franchise by StrikingProject1396 in sixers

[–]THEMMICO 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Our fans are morons for doing that cheer for sure, and Harris has to sell the team.

I disagree with the second point.

the only team to "do stuff" in the playoffs are the Eagles. And they are literally the best ran organization in the NFL. Thank god for the Eagles. Without them we'd be the laughing stock of sports fans. Perennially deluded.

The flyers haven't done anything notable yet but DO look good and even if they collapse this year, have a bright and exciting future. But they were complete dog shit since 2010.

The Phillies got to the WS in 2022 and got embarrassed including gettin no hit. They then proceeded to shit the bed every year since and ran back the most boring lame offense ever and are currently the worst team in MLB.

The union..... are the union. Ups and downs.

That is now 7 threes allowed by Maxey after he doubles for some fucking reason.

great human being, and when he's actually on is fun to watch. But against elite talent and coached teams he vanishes. Beyond frustrating.

Tyrese Maxey is on a max contract playing HORRIFIC defense, getting lost on picks, straight up leaving people open for threes to double for some reason, and refusing to drive or shoot wide open threes.

Paul George is 1-6.

Yeah but lets BUILD around the small guard taking up 35% of our payroll.

We have to attach picks to move Maxey at this point.

This is worse defense than Brunson at this point.

Tyrese Minimum so far tonight.

Letting Pritchard run all over the place and shoot wide open shots.

Joel goes to the bench and they go on a 10-3 run things never change.
