As a Raps fan I was fuming watching Embiid showboat after game 3. It's petty but, watching him cry after game 7 was the most satisfying moment of NBA television I've ever seen
Screw yo moment #Sixersfan
couldn’t agree more. seeing embitch eat his words was fantastic😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@dbradandthem2727Cry harder bro!
@@dbradandthem2727is this the dagger?!
@@dbradandthem2727i still go back and watch the sixerfans reaction to the shot. Pretty much killed the dynasty before it started.
2019 was a great year man…
Kawhi did a lot for us, we need this from scottie.
2nd best season behind 2016
@@toomuchsauce3119 Behind nothing. Lol. We won the chip. 2019 over everything.
2019 was a great year until it wasn't (Im thinking October to December timeframe)
I just finished my first year of college
Kawhi was on another level this playoff run, absolutely insane and the season will be one of the biggest parts of his basketball legacy
why say one of the biggest? it is the biggest. this is insane.
@@thirdlinesniper3279 prolly yea
It's debatable if he had a top 5 playoff run in NBA history. Dude was on an entirely different level.
and the raptors!
@@DailySlotBonus 😂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
As a Raptors fan that season was magical. A shame they couldnt keep the roster together and run it back the following year as I think they had a great chance to repeat.
I think of Kawhi stayed then it was a good chance to make it to the finals again. Plus, they would’ve had a healthy OG.
That bench mob was crazy too.
Never forget kawhi made giannis and embiid cry
he only made embiid
@@AnildoSantos-kr9qy no I'm pretty sure giannis cried too
@@AnildoSantos-kr9qy I couldn't find it so I'll so you right but man I remember bro crying too, and the memes from it idk
@@isaacj8175 Na Giannis just looked sad and walked out during the presser
@@isaacj8175never happened
Kwahi with one of the best playoff performances of all time. That whole championship run was unreal.
Kawhi should’ve signed a 1and1 to run it back with Toronto. He would’ve made the conference finals in the bubble and probably another finals. And you know that’s what he was thinking with that pi$$ed off look he had on the bench when the Clippers choked game 7.
no way in hell any team beats us in the bubble with kawhi!! 100% repeat!
Paul George said on his pod recently that him and Kawhi were willing to play for the Raptors in 2020 but the Clippers made OKC a better offer for the Paul George trade and the rest is history
@@_Human_being Yea Masai didn't want to give up Pascal or OG at the time.
@@RxOxPx OG wasn't that big of an asset then, wasn't till bubble year.
@@Zorbis1337 I never said he was.
Simmons, Butler, Tobias, Embiid are elite defenders, how they couldn't stop Kawhi. The most unpredictable series in the last 5 years.
Raptors had the deepest team that year with a lot of solid chemistry. They had 3 guys in addition to Kawhi who were capable of going off for one or two games in a series. Phili had a big 4 with a meh supporting cast. It was about as evenly matched a series you can find.
Raptors also had 2 former DOPY''s and every player on the team was a great defender.
This series was an intense physical and defensive battle.
P.S. I would not call Tobias Harris a good defender let alone elite.
Harris....elite defender? Nah. Not even close.
The problem with guarding Kawhi is that the Raptors were able to score at every other position too. If you doubled Kawhi, every other player on the floor could shoot the 3.
@@saltymonkey8874they hate us coz they aint us
@@saltymonkey8874this run was insane, magics weren’t terrible but the rest of the teams they faced this year were literally one of the best teams in the league at the time
After this series the Raptors really took off.. this Sixers series is probably the best Kawhi has ever played
5 years later, still waiting for a playoff series to be as iconic as this one. Nets-Bucks 2021 came very close but of course missed kyrie.
The city melted when Kawhi made that shot. I'll never forget the environment when the Raptors won man
7:06 When Embiid got too cocky and lit the fire 🔥 of the Raptors 😂
Most times I genuinely feel bad seeing an athlete so broken that they cry. Watching Embiid cry is like a room full of puppy dogs to me, pure heaven.
bro really put the crying embiid at the end lol
after he put the airplane showboating he did after game 3, you knew it was coming 🤣
Yea it was necessary
Kawhi
Siakam
Lowry
Gasol
Vanvleet
Ibaka
Powell
Raptors were stacked
don't forget the GOAT, Jeremy Lin
Plus an injured OG...even Boucher was a guy who would've gotten run on just about any other playoff team. Crazy stacked...and all were elite 2 way players. I looooved that team so much.
You realize you're missing a starter, right?
@@expendablegerbil tbf, Green was probably the least impactful of all the players listed.
@@AsianDoughe missed so many open shots that playoff run! I remember the anxiety every time he put up a shot
This series and the next against the bucks were unreal
Going down 0-2 to the Bucks only to then sweep them is crazy. It was a masterful choke job by the Bucks coaching staff too.
This still gives me goosebumps
This should truly be one of the top ten playoff matches in nba history the back and forth in this series was so crazy
This is what Kawhi leonard looks like when he's healthy.
He wasn't even healthy. He was playing on one leg for most of this series.
Toronto was a solid team tho
@@jas1565 he was fine here it was after the buck series
@@bilalabdali7546 nope, he injured himself in the Sixers series as well. His knee. He reinjured it against the Bucks.
Pretty sure he only played like 50 games that year too
Lol joel crying at end
he finally got to meet his father, Marc Gasol. Moving moment.
Kawhi shouldve stayed. Wouldve repeated. The Raptors were such a stacked team
Na his knee was blown after this. He's never the same again
@@AsianVideoGamerwho knows if history would’ve changed
They still get no respect for this championship run but no one was stopping kawhi. Haters always say if KD was healthy, or clay, but Kawhi was healthy because the raps load managed him to have a long run. The better team won, the better organization won
The better and smarter organization won
Most of those haters are the GSW bandwagoners.
They don’t mention how they played injured teams in all their chip runs.
@@cheesesteakphilly exactly
"GAME.... SERIES.... TORONTO HAS WON!!!!" I'll never forget that call as long as I live. Magical season
As a 76ers fan, it was legendary. I’ve never watched all the games in the playoffs against the Toronto Raptors in 2019. It was a legendary matchup🔥
If we're not for that shot. Y'all 76ers going to the finals. I guarantee it!
Oh yeah, and I guarantee you, that shot should not have go in!!! We should’ve won!!! 🥇
Only 76'ers took the Raps to 7. This was the finals
@@stump4522 Not to throw a wrench in your dreams but I wholeheartedly disagree.
First off, Embiid was absolutely gassed so I'm pretty sure Toronto wins in OT if it gets there.
Second, Toronto (aside from Kawhi) played WAYY better against Milwaukee (after the first two games) than against Philly, especially if you look at game 7 when no one besides Kawhi wanted the ball in their hands. As a Toronto fan that game was excruciating to watch. That's why we keep joking that FVV jr. is our Lord and Saviour because our team started playing much better after he was born.
So unless the 76ers also could've jumped a level in future rounds they weren't winning against the Bucks.
@@RaspySW 100% best sixers team since AI
Crazy they plug and played Marc Gasol mid season and he was effective immediately.
Gasol was just so damn smart and knew how to fit his game into our system. He didn't try to do too much, and knew we just needed him to guard the rim, move the ball to the scorers and hit his open 3's. He played that role PERFECTLY.
"Kawhai guarded by Simmons. Is this the Dagger?"
Raptor Kawhi was something else.. shoulda ran it back
Kawhi literally become mj in this series, he do it all defense, midrange, 3pt, dunk
As a Jazz fan, Kawhi going nuclear in 2019 is easily my favorite basketball I've ever watched
This truly was a legendary series. Even as a Raps fan I have to admit, that 76ers team was LEGIT and easily would've been title contenders and probably favourites to go to the Finals, if they won. The fact that they screwed up this team is so disappointing, but also cathartic because - F Embiid :D . The big time difference in this series was that the Raps' best players were battle tested veterans like Lowry, Leonard, Gasol, Ibaka, Green, with a sprinkling of youth in Siakam, Van Vleet, Powell. 2 of the top 3 76ers at the time in Simmons and Embiid were still relatively young and unproven and it was largely the difference in the series.
Kawhi no doubt.. But Raptors defense was also ELITE
My bestfriend died in 2018 the year before the raptors won the chip.he was the biggest raptors fan ever, when we won he was the first person i thought of.what a beautiful run it was in 2019❤❤❤
Most braindead argument I’ve heard is “Without Kawhi they wouldn’t have won, it was only him”. 2 things can be true:
- Without Kawhi they wouldn’t have won
- They made Kawhi better and he was better off staying
It’s also very dumb because that’s like me saying without Lebron Cleveland wouldn’t have won anything ever and Lebron is the only reason they did (there’s actually a stronger argument here because Kawhi hasn’t won anything since he left, Lebron has). Same with Jokic and the Nuggets. Like this stupid “Oh without *insert star player* they would’ve lost” like, okay????????
Thank you. People act as if Toronto wasn't a 55+ win team before Kawhi. They needed him as much as he needed them.
@@orlandowright2323 also casually ignore the fact they took one of the best teams in the east to 7 games the year after. Probably would have repeated if Kawhi stayed
@@josephspagnolo3376 Facts, they were on pace to win 60 wins in the covid shortened season and they definately would have repeated. Not to mention that the 2019-20 season was Kawhi's last healthy season.
Jeremy Lin was the 10th man on this roster. everyone above that has gotten tens of millions in their career.
@@josephspagnolo3376 yeah dont forget how bad Siakam was during that Celtics series. He didnt touch a basketball for the 3 months in between the initial shutdown and the Bubble, and if the Bubble didnt happen and the season ended regularly, I believe that 2019-20 Raptors team could've at least made the Eastern Conference Finals without Kawhi.
Healthy Kawhi was a freak, the size of those hands and how he does standing dunks effortlessly. Ridiculous
Forever thankful to have attended game 5 🥹
Thanks for adding that last clip of Embiid crying. Epic
Why can't my Clippers get this Kawhi in the playoffs?
He should’ve never left the raps he would’ve won back to back
We get a better Kawhi when he’s healthy
They do but he just gets injured after his godly playoff games for them
Two words: Alex McKechnie
Lawrence Frank is a bum.
Raptor fan my whole life , don't tell me fun guy ain't deserve a dam statue man .
Fun guy, Kyle and Vince are the greatest raptors of all time
he should have his jersey retired. I dont care that he was only here for a year. Retire Kyle and Kawhi's jerseys and build a statue for each of them.
Yes Golden State were injured but look at those stacked teams Toronto had to face beforehand. Raps had a incredible team and they were on pace for 60 wins without Kawhi the following year.
The shot😰
These highlights make it look like Embiid and Simmons were dominating when they were pretty trash offensively and majority of the offence ran through Jimmy Butler
As a Raptor fan I can say that my heart still skips a beat every time I watch that shot
Yes bro please keep these coming and can you do some classic like older ones to if possible bro
2020 Raps vs Cs
biggest disappointment was OG missed the ringrun this leading to FVV ascension and raps downfall
2019 Kawhi was a top 3 player when playoffs came no debate he was number 1
Man this series along with the bucks right after are my favourites and as raptor fans will live long in the memory. This was really a special time to be a raptors fan.
I took my mom to game 7 (it was on Mother’s Day) and it was the loudest professional sports event I’ve ever been to. Made it in the jumbotron a few times too with her and my brother!
Kawhi looking like MJ out there
Yo I just re watched this series through this for the first time. Unreal video. The embid tunnel tears at the end just fucking killllllled me. Not in a malicious way, but it drove home the gravity of the other end of that elation which we all felt as Toronto. That moment absolutely crushed his soul. Glorious.
What a f’ing series watching that Kawhi shot gets me so emotional in a happy sense man I miss that raptors team
This was one of the greatest NBA playoff series. Embid deserved to cry.
The whole city genuinely appreciated his efforts and it allowed him to just play basketball at his highest level.
Damn. Thinking about the 2019 Sixers, it was actually stacked from 1 to 5. Jimmy, Simmons (when he was still great) and Embiid. Then Tobias when he was averaging 18ppg and a pure shooter JJ.
I feel like this Sixers team wouldve beaten all the 2020s NBA champion ( Lakers, warriors, Bucks) except the Celtics.
and thats what i try to tell ppl when ppl say the raptors championship is easy just cuz klay missed a game and a half
@@zacharymccoy5474and the fact is that klay only missed like a quarter of a game
that Sixers team was absolutely insane. If they had run it back that next year, they wouldve easily beat any team in the East except maybe a healthy Bucks team, and easily beat the 2020 Lakers.
Raptors vs 76ers in 2001 and 2019 is deja vu because both ended in game 7, ended critical shots, bucks waiting in ECF both years and the only difference, carter missed 3 while kawhi make it
It wouldve been more fun if 76ers made ecf vs bucks again and more dejavu if 76ers embiid face the powerhouse gsw(like how iverson face powerhouse lakers)
Oh yeah I agree, for sure man☝️
Only difference is that 01 team wasn’t built to win a chip. This 19 raps team was deep in all positions. I’d argue they could give it a good go against any team in nba history
Kawhi is Mike with bad knees
Here you see “prime” Siakam. Very difficult to guard one on one because of his excellent footwork, and he can switch on D. But as the primary scoring option he has trouble scoring over double teams (unlike Kawhi) and was miscast as the number 1 scorer in the next 4 years in Toronto. That’s why people think he’s overrated even though he’s not. Even in Indiana he’s too much of a number 1 scorer and you still won’t see the best version of him. He’s the league’s best two-way “number 2” because of his versatile and complimentary game, but as a number 1 he is not the most efficient scorer.
He was best as a #2/3. I don't really consider him a traditional #2 simply because of the amount of depth this team had. Any given night the Raps had 4-5 other guys who could give them 20pts, unlike say a team like the 2019 Bucks where Middleton was the clear #2. Siakam played best when he could get his buckets in transition, or driving to the rim when defenders got pulled to Kawhi/Lowry/Gasol.
People forget Kawhi's Game 4 performance in this seies
Yea, that performance is what stopped the bleeding going into the rest of the series.
And that Tobias Harris shot the Sixers out of an opportunity to go up 3-1. Fast forward five years and he has a donut vs the Knicks. So happy to seem him gone.
I'm always a fan of golden hoops ❤❤
Best part of this series was the Leonard 4 bounce shot went in and when the teams were going back to the locker rooms, you see Joel Embid crying. Was worth it because that's what you get for showboating. The 76ers have been terrible since 2000 (Allen Iverson's era) the last time they were in the ECF. 24 years ago and I am not convinced with the addition of Paul George are they going anywhere. They are not championship material like Boston is. The narrative is that certain teams will never win a title and Philadelphia is one of them. It happens in every sport.
theyre not gonna do anything even with Paul George. George doesnt have what it takes to win. He said it himself; he doesnt feel pressure to perform in crucial games because he's felt less pressure as he has gotten older. Don't listen to the casuals who think the Sixers have any chance at winning. I dont have them beating New York or Boston, or even a 5 seed team like the Cavs or Bucks. Giannis will destroy the Sixers. It feels just like the addition of Harden all over again in Philadelphia; adding an aging veteran who is far from the player he used to be
This is proof that philly is a trash org. Bro this roster has what it takes to make it again next year and they were very impatient and traded butler. Dynasties arent just a one year success
TOBIAS HARRIS OVER ME???!?
Himmy buckets got revenge
seeing embiid crying after the show boating in the early games bring me so much joy
I was in attendance at that. I became deaf for a month after that clutch shot😂
The series that literally broke Embiid
The only thing good about Philly is that it is always sunny. 😂😂😂
This is the best version of Philly in history. I love AI but this was the team that was supposed to win.
As a super fan of the raptors and does not ever miss a game. I loved this video
Embiid game three: foul called a block x2, 6 step travel turned into a windmill dunk. Home cooking on 11
2009 Celtics vs Bulls 1st round.. most overtime played in a playoff series.
This was the best sixers team thus far in the Embiid era
Toronto vs Philadelphia 2019 was the best playoffs series ever. Prove me wrong
Nuggets / Lakers 2023 was close even though it was a sweep
@@metalhead2536 the fuck are u talking about? Lakers got fucked in every possible way
Is This The Dagger!? Chills every time bruh 😅
Embiid pretending to be sick in game 2, then acting like that in game 3? People believe this faker?
That raps team coulda gone b2b. They had OG anunoby & chris Boucher on that bench. 2 future contributors that got 0 mins.
Anunoby was injured during the playoff run and Boucher wasnt good enough to get playoff minutes at that point.
Honestly,the best part was the mental damage it did to Embiid until after the bubble. I mean Marc Gasol held him to 0 points in a game following the championship year.
Ben ain’t ran that fast since
emiid airplane and cries and lost
Doesn’t get talked much but embiid defense this series was amazing
17:40 worth it
16:53 IS THIS THE DAGGER! GAME! SERIES! TORONTO HAS WON!
best sixers team since 2001
Good video thanks man
Magical series
Before: 7:29
Later: 17:38
I feel so bad for embiid, I am a sixers fan but live in Canada
He played amazing this series and lost but the fact that everyone is being mean to him because he cried. That makes me question basketball fans
Every player cries and only embiid gets bullied for it
It's not because he cried, it's because he's extremely unlikeable and cried.
Embiid is not very unlikeable
@@2kChris21 He's a showboater, as seen with the airplane and humping the air constantly. He has dirty plays compilations, even minutes long just from the same game (the knicks game this year is insane, and he wasn't even ejected). More flagrant fouls than Draymond Green in half the games. Throws everyone under the bus when he loses, basically every year after 2019. The endless flopping, plays to get to the free throw line to the point where he looks like a clown. Once even injured Danny Green (his own teammate) so bad he basically retired him, from flopping onto him. Has so many sore loser quotes, hating on other NBA players to boost himself, complaining for mvp when his opponents just play the game. Then the playoff failures, the thing that even some Philly fans hate him for.
Ok you may be saying the truth and i’m sorry if I offended you but i wanted to get a point across that i felt was also true. Embiid is my favourite player and it hurts me to see him getting disrespected because of this but he is a showboater and i can agree, he is still an amazing person/player when he plays fair but thank you for your comments

Yep that is why. 2019 sixers was the best roster for the sixers.

IMO if og was healthy for these playoffs raps would’ve taken it in 5 or 6 games
When is og healthy?
Легендарная прогулка Кавая с Торонто за титулом🏆
Kawhi left Raps to play for a USA team
Golden State Warriors
Raps were not favourites vs Sixers, Bucks and GSW. All-time run despite the injuries
and after that run Kawhi decided he'd rather live in the sun and lose than the snow and win the championship another time.
2008 Hawks vs Celtics
