My question:

Does Joel Embiid get a free pass from the fans for the Boston series? From what I’ve seen, most of the fan base blames Harden for Games 6 and 7, forgetting that he won us two games earlier in the series. Meanwhile, Joel had no signature performances - and it’s not the first big series where that’s been the case.

In Games 6 and 7, it felt like he quit. I remember watching Game 7 thinking, This is do-or-die , get going. But the urgency never came. First quarter... nothing. Second quarter... still waiting. Third quarter... just hoping he’d flip the switch. Even in the fourth, it never looked like he was giving it everything he had.

Gun to his head, can Mike, without warming up, make at least 40 out of 50 free throw attempts to save his life? And this is with someone standing in front of him, aiming the gun at his face as he shoots.
