0:00
let's just start with the NBA the
0:04
Philadelphia 76ers are just
0:07
depressing there's no other way to put
0:09
this they are just sad and I have to say
0:13
I have a tendency to believe that most
0:16
of this is because Joel embiid
0:18
oftentimes feels sad not sure if that's
0:21
kind of his default emotion but he
0:24
certainly feels sad we have a situation
0:30
76ers end up trailing by 17 points in
0:34
their game and Nick nurse decides we are
0:37
just gonna flat out bench Joel embiid
0:41
for the rest of this game against the
0:43
Brooklyn Nets and lo and behold the
0:46
Sixers come roaring back they come all
0:48
the way back to tide in the last seconds
0:50
and in the last seconds embiid is not on
0:54
the floor now is he injured is this
0:58
because they were playing well without
1:00
nurse doesn't want to go and throw his
1:02
Superstar out the bus but he keeps him
1:04
out and the Nets win on a tippen and so
1:08
everyone's wondering well if you had
1:11
embiid in there do you end up winning
1:13
this game and tyes Maxi's like hey you
1:17
know he's been really good since I got
1:19
here thanks you have Paul George we know
1:25
100% okay but does this not feel like
1:30
just this kind of slog to the end of the
1:32
season and this kind of blinking light
1:35
on everything that could go wrong has
1:37
gone wrong and it is just too depressing
1:40
to even pay attention to in
1:42
Philadelphia these big expectations
1:44
every single year with him be of the
1:46
Sixers seem to flame out always
1:48
prematurely but this one this one's
1:50
really bad because the season begins
1:53
with the team saying embiid's going to
1:54
be limited in his play and the season
1:57
begins with Joel embiid lashing out
2:00
critics and the season begins with embi
2:03
on the defensive now here we are in the
2:05
last week of February and they're
2:09
blowing games against one of the worst
2:11
teams in the East and they're doing so
2:17
playing this is this is just like embiid
2:24
mean as you look through the NBA and
2:28
wonder what are the saddest stories I
2:31
mean this has to be one of them is it
2:34
not because where do you go from here
2:36
you just keep building and building and
2:40
embiid I was just thinking today when
2:43
you get to this point of the season one
2:46
of two things happens either you've got
2:48
hope where your season is done so early
2:52
and it's the most depressing thing ever
2:54
and the Sixers are part of the ladder
2:57
they can't even hope of a playin game
3:00
they can't even hope of a of a playoff
3:02
run they can't even hope if we get
3:04
everybody healthy together because the
3:06
mentality is just so sad everything's so
3:10
sad around them and Joel embiid has
3:12
become the Eeyore of the NBA just one
3:16
big wamp wamp one big
