“I’ve dreamed of this since I was a kid, I watched this game when I was a kid. Now is the time, and now I’ll be able to wear a big ring on my finger every time we make it, hold that trophy; it’s amazing,” DeJean said after the game, which coincidentally took place on his birthday.

The fans couldn’t resist making a few jokes at the expense of the Sixers. “They won a Super Bowl. They shouldn’t be exposed to the stench of the Sixers,” joked one fan.
“This is an energy I can’t really comprehend. I’d be in a different country every two weeks for the next few months. I guess he’s a rookie and doesn’t have it like that yet. But still,” added another fan.
>”Bro, they just won a Super Bowl and we’re punishing them!”. I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy having to watch a 76ers game and we’re forcing our Super Bowl champions to watch it!”. Joked another internet user.
