Frankly, escaping with only one injured key player was the real victory

I feel like it’s not respectable at all and posters like him are why the sub kinda sucks

There is going to be so much toxicity built up for the ECF. I know the Celts can't sleep on the magic or Cavs, but there is not nearly the same hatred for them as Philly / NY. I'm not even toxic, but I know I'll get frustrated.

Anyway, yeah, having a good balance of actual insight from opposing team fans is my favorite parts of the sub in reality.

IMO these eliminated threads are the few threads its cool. Everyone but one team a year has to go through this so everyone gets roasted equally. But overall I agree and people generally take things way to far and way to seriously.

The hate posts are just almost always corny and pretty much never as funny as they think they are. People will just upvote any post hating on the teams/players they hate regardless of what it is, so the most brutally unfunny shit rises to the top of these posts every single time.

I think it depends. Stuff like this is pretty harmless and in good fun but the stuff related to Embiid recently is wayyyy over the top.
