Jerry West lived a profound basketball and American life — iconic as a player, executive and looming figure in the history of the game. He was an MVP, a champion, a gold medalist, a dynasty-builder and literally the league’s logo. His loss leaves a massive void.

@gordonwjones My career!

Another lost 76ers season. The Process failed. For those that are optimistic, do you trust Morey? That's the $64,000 question.

Kyle Lowry shouts out fellow #NovaMBB Legends, Donte DiVincenzo, Josh Hart and Jalen Brunson:

"They did their job in this series. As a fellow Wildcat, I'm proud of them and I have big love for those guys."

But Morey is in charge. Good luck.

[Mark Perner @MarkPerner]

I don’t know why, but I’m more optimistic after this playoff loss than after any other playoff loss since 2001. A future without Tobias Harris is a bright one.

A lot of articles today start with something such as ‘while The Sixers lost’…listen, there are always positives to take out odds anything, but when they become repetitive, that is not the way to be. The Sixers lost, period. Eleven years, and not to the conference finals.

@DrBrianMcD Thank you ... always nice to hear!

[Andy Jasner @AndyJasner]

My father always taught me to focus on the present but always looking one step ahead. Do the Sixers have enough left in the tank on Thursday?

[Andy Jasner @AndyJasner]

My bad.

Andy, stop revealing my column topics before I finish writing them. #Sixers

[Howard Eskin @howardeskin]

Maybe fans will now appreciate what I said last week on @SportsRadioWIP.after Tyrese Maxey 46 points in Game 5.

[Andy Jasner @AndyJasner]

@timbo202020 @jollywipradio Tobias hasn't been good enough. Everyone sees that. Buddy Hield has been invisible. Paul Reed is overmatched. Star players carry teams. If Embiid was 100 percent, I think the Sixers would be at least in the EC Finals. He's not healthy.

[Andy Jasner @AndyJasner]

Joel Embiid simply cannot criticize the fans. The optics are so bad here.

[Andy Jasner @AndyJasner]

@timbo202020 @jollywipradio Everyone needs to be better. Obviously. But if you're criticizing Nic Batum or Cam Payne, that's not logical. Embiid is the face of the franchise. He's not healthy. It's really as simple as that.

[Andy Jasner @AndyJasner]

@timbo202020 @jollywipradio Yes, they need more from Embiid and Maxey. That's not unreasonable. Embiid's knee is clearly hurting. Look at his fourth quarter numbers.

[Andy Jasner @AndyJasner]

@timbo202020 @jollywipradio If you're talking about KJ Martin and Ricky Council IV, well, the Sixers aren't going anywhere. None of this matters without Embiid being healthy and playing like an MVP.

[New York Basketball @NBA_NewYork]

Joel Embiid 4th quarter rebounds:

Game One: 0
Game Two: 0
Game Three: 1
Game Four: 1

[Andy Jasner @AndyJasner]

@timbo202020 @jollywipradio There wasn't much choice with Hield benched and Melton not really healthy and Reed being terrible and Batum struggling ... well, you get the point.

[Andy Jasner @AndyJasner]

@bicycle2552 @inkstainedretch Not blaming Reed. He's just not a good player.
