 What's the word y'all? I know we can all agree, but a Winner Go Home Game 7 scenario is the best thing in sports, bar none. Couple of days leading up to this, I'm like, man, how am I gonna balance this? It's Mother's Day, you know what I'm saying? I wanna get my flowers to my dukes for all of the great things she's done for me in my 26 years of life. She comes over, I tell her, I might, I might in the middle of your day, mom. I might have to go to the work office just to film a video. She say, baby, do your thing. So shout out to mom and shout out to all the moms out there for real. This is your day. Or is it Jason Tatum's day? I can't really tell at this point. This man just had one of the weirdest series I've seen from a Star Calibur player where he went quarters at a time in the seven-game series where he could not find the basket at all. Like somebody took his abilities as if we had Space Jam. And then in the game seven, he breaks the record for the most points in the game seven. Breaking Steph Curry's record, the record lasted like two weeks, y'all. That's what it feels like at least 51 points. And y'all know me. I started video before the game was even over. Jada Springer's out here doing stuff right now. I could not care less. And now we got the 2020 NBA bubble rematches where we got the heat and the Celtics and then we got the Lakers and the Nuggets coming up soon. Since we got a few days between now and when those series start, I'm gonna chill for a little bit and then we'll talk about those series. Once we get a little bit close, I think game one of Lakers Nuggets is on Tuesday. I more wanna focus on this series and focus on the 76ers. Let's be real. Again, flowers to Jason Tatum, Joe Missoula starting Robert Williams in game six was huge and you saw that again tonight between Al Warford and Robert Williams, Joe LaBeat gonna do nothing. And in my last video when we were talking about this series, I told y'all that I felt pretty confident in the Celtics. Oh, did I say it on the podcast? Either way, I've said somewhere on this platform that I felt very confident in the Celtics because that moment where the 76ers were up in game six and they eventually went on to not give Joe LaBeat the ball for four minutes and they could not score for longer than that. That was the series right there in my eyes and it turned out to be true. And it wasn't even close. I mean, they went on an extreme run where it was what, 60 to 55 and then you look up and now it's 80 to 55. Like they went so cold and the Celtics and Jason Tatum went up and up and up and now they're preparing for Jimmy Butler and we'll, again, we'll talk about that. I wanna focus on the 76ers. I did a little bit of trolling on Twitter today. Y'all know I got no ill will to no organization whatsoever. But it feels like deja vu for what the seventh year in the world. Joe LaBeat has not had a conference finals appearance. We're gonna talk about Joe LaBeat pretty heavily in this video. But this was one of, this might have been their best chance since Kawhi Leonard shot. Like I think that that Jimmy Butler JJ reddit team with Ben Simmons who was playing good basketball and Joe LaBeat. That was like probably the best constructed team. But this team, let's not steer away from the fact that Joel Embiid just won MVP. James Harden, eat him, not make an all NBA appearance but he was all NBA caliber. Got some votes here there. Travis Max, he was really good. P.J. Tucker was a good acquisition. Like this team was constructive for a deep run and here they are again, being eliminated in the second round. It's got a notification that says Ben Simmons was tuned in. What am I looking at? Ben Simmons is a troll. Ben Simmons is a troll. Either way, either way, there's a lot of people to blame you. Obviously, there's not one singular person that gets to full blame for this series in and of the way it did. I know that we knew that Boston versus Philly were gonna happen. We've known this for pretty much months that these two teams will match up against each other. But still I do believe that the 76ers had enough to win this series and ultimately they lost. There's blame here for Joel and B. There's blame here for Doc Rivers. There's blame here for James Harden. There's blame here for the role play. It's like everybody gets their own piece. But my argument is that Joel and B should get one of the bigger pieces here. And I don't want y'all to think this is any anti-Joel and B. I voted him for MVP on my unofficial ballot. Joel and B is a great NBA player but I'm just looking at the games, this series and everything we know about these players. Because though in this game seven James Harden had another stinker in a win-or-go-home game. You can talk about that too. James Harden also had two 40 point games to even get us to the point where this is a game seven. So he's got a slight pass. He's got a slight pass because the MVP of the league did not have more than one MVP performance in this playoff series. I know he's dealing with the neat thing. He had a brace on for the great majority of the series. I understand that. But he's still the MVP of the league in the win-or-go-home game and he was non-existent. Al Warford is old enough to be my grandfather and he put the clamps on not just this game for a good chunk of this series. Let me see, what did Joel and B end up with? He ended up with 15 and eight in a game seven. Harden ended up with nine, seven and six. Again, like they didn't get production from any of their two-star players but we're focusing on Joel right now. And listen, Al Warford is a great, great defender. There's a reason why a few years ago the 76ers themselves signed Al Warford because they were tired of that man and they saw him as a Joel and B stopper genuinely. So they brought him onto the team. That didn't work out. Then he went back to Boston and reset everything and he's back to being a Joel and B stopper. He's a Joel and B whisperer. There was points in this series where P.J. Tucker, who might be the Harden soldier who's saying, I don't know. P.J. Tucker had to look Joel and B in his face and say, ain't no dude out here that can guard you one-on-one. And that was after Al Warford had a couple of possesses back to back to back where he was putting the absolute clamps on him. You know, I remember if this was game four, game five regardless, P.J. had to hype up the league MVP to tell him, you're the MVP for a reason. And I don't think you should have to go through that with an MVP player. This was a dreadful, dreadful series. And I said something very similarly about Kevin Durant when they got eliminated because Kevin Durant averaged 29 points but like the counter stats of Kevin Durant were insane. But you're looking at Kevin Durant and Joel and B against themselves. You know what I'm saying? I'm not comparing Joel and B to an average center where you can tell me, look at those stats, Kenny. He had a great series because a few years replaced by this, but that's not relevant anymore. This is the playoffs. This is where people win championships. This is where we separate the very, very good players from the all-time players. This is what we're here for and Joel and B has yet to give us an all-star Hall of Fame worthy run. And sometimes it's Hall of Fame worthy runs. Don't even end in a championship. We say plenty of people go on Hall of Fame. Like Jimmy Butler's bubble run was a Hall of Fame caliber run. Do we make the Hall of Fame? That's not the conversation right now. But those type of runs exist. I would argue that with Nikola Jokic and I know there's going to be a lot of compare between Jokic and Joel and B since Joel and B just won the MVP, whatever. What Nikola Jokic is doing right now is Hall of Fame is a Hall of Fame run currently. He's just averaged a 35 point triple double to defeat Kevin Durant and Devon Booker. That's elite. Joel and B is yet to do that for us. The best I can think is in that Philly versus Atlanta Hawks series, he was great. I don't know what he averaged, but he was great in that series. Ultimately, then the Blues and then Ben Simmons was like the overall scapegoat from everybody. And for good reason, I'm not saying he didn't deserve the criticism that he got. But like it was like, okay, it was Ben Simmons. Now let's now do this. We got James Harden coming to town now. This is the time. And I don't know where they go. We talk about every single iteration of a championship quality team having windows, right? And I asked people on Twitter, the window shut. James Harden is a free agent. And we've heard from, I don't remember, I think we've heard from Shoms all season long about James Harden's thinking about Houston again. Houston got money. Houston just pay E-Mai Udoka to come change some things. They got money. E-Mai saying his presser, they're not looking to lose no more. And James Harden's one of the best players on the market and he has history there. So if James decides to walk, I don't know what to expect. I don't know what to do. This was the year that was supposed to be the run. Even if the run is a conference finals appearance and you lose, a championship appearance and you lose, at least you got over the next hump. You have not been able to get past the second round. You have a game seven where Ben Simmons don't, oh no, you had a game seven where Kawhi Leonard hits one of the craziest shots of all time. You have a game seven where Ben Simmons passed the ball when he's guarded by Trey Young. And now we got the game seven where the MVP of the league got stopped by Al Warford. Like this is bad, man. This is bad, bad, bad. And the Philly fans are fed up. I asked people on Twitter, 76's fans, what change do you want to see this off season? And again, everybody right now is high on emotion because they just got eliminated. And obviously these aren't the opinions that some of them will stay with. For example, this guy's a Philly fan because he's got the picture of Kobe in an Eagles jersey. Okay. Let Harden walk, trade and B for every first round pick ever, trade Toby for anything, fire, dock and rebuild. Bring back Monty, sign and trade Harden if possible, bring in depth and wing defense and a good playmaker. We have one last shot wouldn't be one last. And you know what? This last sentence might be an absolute truth. Because right now in Joellenby's career, he's had Jimmy Butler. He's had Ben Simmons. He's had James Harden. And maybe there's another R-star caliber player that comes in this next integration. But like he's had a plethora of great players around him. And it still hasn't worked out yet. But I'm looking for some tweets. There are some die hard 76er fans that I follow. Again, I try to follow a few people in every single fandom just because I wanna see what they're believing. And one of them, a guy that I truly respect and Philly fandom was like, it doesn't matter, I'm done. And I don't think that's gonna be the case for him. You know what I'm saying? Knowing his history and stuff. But I can understand the emotion that he's going through right now. The only thing I will push back on is the idea of resetting a team that's been good for years and starting over for the process again. Like 80% of rebuilds fail, right? Ultimately, 80, I'm just making up another number. Most rebuilds fail. But the process, y'all remember what the process was? Do you remember how many years of bottom of the league? Can y'all endure that again? Like that's not that hard to believe. Well, I feel like there might be some retooling. If you're gonna fire Doc, which feels like, I mean, I don't even know if they're gonna let him get an exit interview. He's probably out the door. You got good coaches out there. You got coach, but I know he ain't perfect. But you also got Money Williams who just got fired yesterday. Like there might be a world where changing the coaching is the main thing that you can worry on. And maybe you could get people back on the bandwagon. Either way, this was a rough watch. It's specifically in game seven. And I have no idea what's next for Philly. I feel like there's a hundred more things I can talk about. I'm gonna end it right there and get back to Mother's Day with my moms. Then if something else comes up, then yeah, we can always make more videos.
