    Learned my lesson about the futility of this 76ers team the other night. Absolutely no grit anywhere on that roster. They deserved to lose.

      It's not a coach bro. Coaches can't stop Lou Williams from scoring 15 in the 4th by himself. You gotta man up and stop him. You gotta make your free throws. No coach can do it for you. You make tens of millions of dollars. Do it. It's not rocket science. It doesn't require any x's and o's. Stop your man. Make your free throws.

        That’s true but this same shit happened with Rivers last year and the Clippers. It’s hard to say there’s not a connection there

          I think coaches make a huge difference in college but in the NBA, you can't coach these divas. They make too much money

              The lineup doc rivers used to start the 4th was atrocious, 4 bench players and Harris who played like trash all night.

                  That's true, when the players make more money then the coach that creates a diva dynamic unless the coach is maybe Phil Jackson or Popazit.

                    Phil Jackson, Pat Riley, KC Jones, Chuck Daly... There were few but not in the modern NBA

                    Even Pop, he couldn't coach Kawhi

                      Maybe so but in every single NBA loss fans media bloggers losing gamblers all complain about lineups. Throughout every single game check Twitter, every single fanbase hates all the lineups besides (usually) the starting five at all times haha. You can’t play all your good players all the time. I think culture is ultimately what separates winning coaches from losing coaches and I don’t think Doc is able to instill that.

                      And I think that’s a tough job as others have pointed out because of the “diva” aspect as it’s being called. And that’s a big reason why coaches turn over so much in the NBA.

                        Explain this a little more because I’ve also seen you say when the money is split and the line goes up faves will tend to cover, or at least I thought that’s what you said.

                        Since you were on this idea of an upset and the game went the way it did I’m particularly intrigued in what you saw here

                          Embiid Simmons Curry and Korkmaz subbed in with 10 min to go left in the 4th quarter. Embiid only sat out for about 3 minutes in the entire second half. Those guys lost the game, not Rivers.

                            Bro you can say whatever you want. Rivers teams do this every place he goes. That's the common denominator. It happens to him so much. Philly fans will of course blame Simmons.

                              Too late. Atlanta scored the first 7 points of the quarter and had momentum, that lineup the 4th was the main reason they lost. Atlanta was rolling to start the quarter, and the run that started at the beginning of the quarter went all the way through the end of the game.

                                Rivers also made no adjustments when Atlanta started to double team Embiid before he even got the ball which kept off the low block, this team has many issues, but Rivers is a dumb shit.

                                  Never sit your top players during a playoff game.

                                  Hard mentally to sit thinking you're done and have to go back out there.

                                  Bad coach.

                                    A coach doesn't play the game, I don't know what to tell you. Embiid and Curry and all the starters were in with 10 minutes left in the 4th. They were up 11 when they were subbed in. What do you want Rivers to do? Step on the court and hit a jumper?

                                    I'm not defending Rivers, but players win games, and they lose games. Embiid missed 2 clutch free throws with 10 seconds left in the game that could have cut it to 1. And then you foul and you never know what happens.

                                    Curry missed a 3 for the tie. Is that on Rivers?

                                    A great player would never lose a game that they're up 20. Even if they're up 11 with 10 min left, leading wire to wire, a great player never loses that game even if there is NO COACH on the sidelines.

                                          Go ahead then, tell us what you would have done. Philly up 11 when all their starters are in the game. 10 minutes to go. Explain to me how Doc Rivers steps on the court and plays defense.

                                            The 4th quarter run started because he had the wrong lineup on the floor at the beginning of the quarter, the run continued to the end of the game. He is a dumb shit.

                                              You're not answering the question. Embiid subbed out with 1 min to go in the 3rd. He came back with 10 min left in the 4th. He got 3 minutes of rest. Curry came back with 10 min left in the 4th. He barely got rest. These guys aren't KD, they're not capable of playing 48 minutes.

                                              76ers had an 11 point lead against a young inexperienced team, at home, in a building they rarely lose in, with the best player on the court having 30 points going into the 4th.

                                              And you're going to say Doc Rivers lost the game because he didn't put embiid in 30 seconds earlier?

                                              You make no sense. Say something that makes sense.

                                              76ers lost the game because Embiid let them lose the game. Because he's not a killer. It's as simple as that. A real killer would never lose that game to a young atlanta team.

                                                Korkmaz was not in the game but probably needed Thybulle for defense with no Green.

                                                  That’s now how basketball works. I when you give a team confidence and let them go on a run to start the 4th like he did because the lineup he is on the floor was complete trash, it’s too late, momentum had turned.

                                                    The problem wasn’t defense, it was offense, Ben took 4 shots and Harris was trash.

                                                      So your solution is to play his star center, who has a partial meniscus tear, and weighs almost 300 pounds, all 24 minutes in the second half.

                                                      Please tell me more about how basketball works.

                                                      Tobias makes 150 million dollars. He had 4 points. Is that coaching?

                                                      This is the fukking NBA. Not high school basketball.

                                                        No, Here my solution.

                                                        The main reason Philadelphia lost was the lineup that start led the 4tht quarter was trash, 1 starter who was 2-7 from the field and 4 bad bench players.

                                                        Atlanta went on a run of 7-0 to start the quarter because of this trash lineup and that forced dumb Rivers to put Embiid in too early, Embiid didn’t get enough rest to start the 4th because Atlanta went on a run to start the quarter against that trash ohilly lineup Doc put on the floor.

                                                        The solution is to put a good lineup on the floor to start the 4th, like Simmons and Harris, or Simmons and Curry with bench players.

                                                        Harris was trash all game, putting him on the floor as the only starter with 4 bench players was dumb and it’s the main reason Philly lost the game.

                                                          And Simmons was trash all game as well. You could put whatever lineup you want on the floor, if you don't make your shots and play defense, the result would be the same.

                                                          You got your wish and Philly had an 11 point lead AT HOME in the 4th quarter in a must win game, and the PLAYERS choked. Embiid choked. Harris choked. And Simmons choked. Choked hard.

                                                          I don't care who you are, NBA players are grown men, if you don't play defense in the 4th quarter of an NBA playoff game, you're going to lose the game everytime. And the coach isn't gonna play defense for you. The coach shouldn't need to motivate you. The coach shouldn't need to give you a pep talk.

                                                          This is not college basketball. This is the fukking NBA, where every player makes tens of millions of dollars a year.

                                                          Coaching does not fukking matter.

                                                          Why do you think Popovic hasn't and will never win a title without Duncan?

                                                            Simmons, Harris and Embiid were like 1-15 in the last 2 fourth quarters. That is fukkking awful. Maybe they need to go to their bench in crunch time because their stars are mental midgets when it counts most. Simmons doesn't even want to touch the ball because he knows he'll have to shoot free throws. Embiid looks like he's ready to start crying again. Harris is MIA.

                                                              End of thread.
                                                              Simmons wasn’t trash at all, he had 9 assists, he wasn’t great but he wasn’t trash either.

                                                              Harris was complete and total trash, and having him and 4 bench players on the floor to start the game is the primary reason Philadelphia lost the game.

Maybe they need to go to their bench in crunch time because their stars are mental midgets when it counts most. Simmons doesn't even want to touch the ball because he knows he'll have to shoot free throws. Embiid looks like he's ready to start crying again. Harris is MIA.
                                                                Simmons and Harris struggled to score the whole game, but Simmons want trash like Harris was, Simmons still impacted the game with his 9 assists, Harris was a complete zero.

                                                                The problem is Embiid didn’t get enough rest to start the 4th and he ran out of gas.
