Sixers vibes are so high right now. Everything is going right. They’re 8-1 and Joel Embiid is out here kicking opponents right in the nuts before cutting to the rim for a dunk:

Great move! Why didn’t anyone think of this before Wednesday night? Refs didn’t blow the whistle.

I can see the Sixers dialing up this play in Game 7 of the NBA Finals. They’re coming out of a timeout and Wemby is guarding Embiid while Stephon Castle has LeBron James. You clear out Tyrese Maxey, V.J. Edgecombe, and Jaylen Brown and have them stand in the opposite corner. Wemby comes out to the break line and Embiid does the fake shot into the kick and crushes Wemby right in the nads. Then Lebron poicks out Embiid for an easy back door pass and the slam dunk.

Sixers win! Sixers win! They defeat the Spurs in 7 to become world champions!
