Somehow I never realized Cam Payne sounds exactly like campaign until today.

So glad we let him go.


Payne has absolutely outplayed Hield, who isn't making shots and can't guard anyone.

Looked to me like Hart side-stepped, expected a challenge.

Yeah it's just weird. Just in the last few pages of this thread alone, we have had Pelicans, Raptors, Pacers, Lakers, Bulls, Mavs and Spurs fans complaining about Embiid but he has to bring in Jokic into it. If anything I imagine Jokic fans are enjoying how Jokic's supposed rival is just destroying his own reputation.


Users (notorious Jokic fans) literally wrote they wished he got hurt, karma got him, career ended etc*.

And needless to say, my comment is not meant to be taken seriously or too literally.

*many reports and yes, we know general NBA fans aren't fans of Embiid. Not just here, but everywhere on the internet.


I've been on these boards long enough to remember when it was a mod enforced thing (if not outright rule) to not let posters wish injury upon players... at some point that stopped being a thing that was enforced or used... I noticed during the Sixers/Raptors series a couple years ago where Embiid got his face broken by Siakam and just the vitriol and hatred unleashed in that game thread made you think people were talking about retribution for someone like Jeffrey Epstein and not just a basketball player.

There’s no way Embiid can play an entire half and not end up significantly affected performance wise.

Dude will be gassed as hell

Yeah, I like their fighting spirit, camaraderie, and physicality. My kind of team. I'm a Heat fan for the same reasons.

Please. We've seen this before when he was healthy. I'm looking at his body language and it looks bad......he's looking for someone to carry Philly to the finish line and doesnt want the burden on his shoulders. .

Short of killing someone that ain’t happening.


I'm more worried about the MVP not injuring any more of our players in these last two games of the series.
