**NBA FINALS THREAD - RAPTORS DEFY GRAVITY**

[nick.]

****, Rockets are finished

 

[DLF]

Anyone who watched the 76ers before the 2013-14 season knows exactly why the Process had to happen. The Sixers were in danger of being a middling team for the next decade. Our best players were Jrue Holiday and Thaddeus Young. My homie nicknamed them the Philadelphia First-Round Exits.

Slandering the Process was low hanging fruit for the national media. Most true Sixers fans were knowledgeable enough to understand what was going on because they understood the alternative was no big name free agents and middle of the road draft picks. As someone said before, the only reason it lasted as long as it did was because of injuries.

Bottom line: The Sixers are one game away from the ECF because of the Process. Orlando, Phoenix, Minnesota, New York, Los Angeles, Sacramento, all teams who were bad in that time period are sitting at home. Say whatever you want about it, but it put the Sixers in a better place than they would have been. Slandering the Process is a bad take by short-sighted people and weirdo basketball purists.

Tell your homeboy they tanked for 6 years to become “Philly the 2nd exits”

Harden has to be wearing the iron Man kicks tonite right?

 

[lawdog1]

^^^ It also didn’t help the perception of “the process” that they picked centers 3 drafts in a row and everyone except Okafor had to have a medical red shirt rookie year.

1. 2nd still better than 1st.

2. You know damn well it wasn't six years.

3. If they make it to the ECF, are you gonna come back in here and admit you were wrong?

 

[DLF]

Ok and if they make it to the ECF, are you gonna come back in here and admit you were wrong?

Lol yes

But I don’t have time so I will say it now:


I was wrong if they make it to next round

Ps I only responded for the Lulz. Don’t really care.

Dude relax. Who cares. Ya man I wish my team was in your teams position.

I hate when people say "unpack" to break something down.

Some others: intellectually dishonest, strawman argument, and there are many more. I see any of those in a post and just skip on to the next one.

 

[DLF]

Success of the process is overblown

They were luckily that Embiid hurt his back in college otherwise he was gonna go number 1 to the Cavs (then the T-wolves). Otherwise they woulda ended up with Jabari Parker.

Noel, okafor, fultz.

Now they traded the other draft gems they found in Saric, Shamet and Covington for players that will possibly leave and or want a MAX!!
