So fucking nervous. So fucking nervous. So fucking nervous.
Winner of tonights game wins the series IMO…
Lets go.
Need an Embiid legacy game
Harden’s arrival outfit wasn’t weird. I’m nervous.
Taking game 5 in a 2-2 series means winning the series about 82% of the time.
Gotta get this W.
Give me two of the most torturous 1 point wins in the history of sports if that’s what it takes to win this fucking series
Harden’s fit is concerning… we needed something more ridiculous
They can, and they will tonight. Carry it home big fella
Not a fan I just want you guys to have a great game take care
I hope the Sixers score more points than the Celtics tonight. Preferably in regulation.
At least both us and celtics fans are fucking dieing inside rn
Maxey 40 point game incoming
Trust the process
sixers in 6 boys
FTC
I know we have to win tonight and it most likely won’t be easy, but holy shit is it hard not to think about Sixers in 6. Fuck the Celtics.
Stuck on a stupid Zoom call for work. No end in sight. DON’T THEY KNOW WHAT DAY IT IS?!
Fear the Beard
Tobias Harris legacy game imminent
Gotta start out strong. Can’t play from behind like in game 3.
I care WAY too much about the success of this team and Embiid. It’s really the only thing missing for me personally in my Philly fandom as I am not a huge hockey fan and fell off the sport. Got my Phillies parade, the Eagles exercised those demons, but until Embiid and the Sixers get one my mental health will unfortunately be tied to this stupid ass franchise.
Let us Pray:
Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two stood against many. That’s what’s important! Valor pleases you, Crom… so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to HELL with you!
MVBIID Game
Kids concert versus Sixer updates. I can do both right?
Joel still hasn’t had a great game this playoffs. Now would be the time.
one of these days my metabolism gonna call it quits and I’ll be absolutely fucked lol
Slippers only thing saving the silliness of Harden’s fit
