This man scored zero points last night and still found a way to make a huge difference. First Celtics possession of the 2H he just runs through somebody and takes the ball. Celtics shot 43% in the 2H after shooting 78% in the 1H. The Process Era Sixers have lacked toughness. This guy has spent all regular season developing some dawg in this group and that dawg showed up last night.

Doesn't matter how many points you score if you're +4 in 37 minutes.

There were times this season Pre February where I would say what is this guy actually giving us? I want to apologize and say I get it now. 3 years 33 million is fucking steep but it looks like it may be one of the best investments of the Process Era.

The vets all ride Reed and Maxey very hard, but those guys are needed and they know it. Reed still has a tendency to done bone-headed things at times, but he has gotten better at basics, like kicking it out and resetting the half-court set after an offensive rebound instead of trying to push up a shot himself, etc. He is learning to play his role.

at the half they mentioned something about Maxey saying "we need to do this" and Doc saying "well it's nice he is thinking about it...maybe he should do it"

that is where the vets come in...stop thinking and fucking do it!

I do miss the post up game and it’s the only thing I wish we could somehow reintegrate. But it's impossible to add that and not take away from what we have

I would happily take away from mediocre players getting an extra point for a tv gimmick

This fat fuck thought the possibility of last night was laughable. Have a salad ya fat fuck.


To be fair, while they were definitely over the top, let's not pretend that Harden has a long history of showing up in the playoffs.

Having said that, I don't like Harden and never have, but they were so over the top that I'm actually glad he made them look stupid.

The fact that he did it to the Celtics doesn't hurt either. lol

Celtics should’ve been able to close this in 5 with embiid

Without him this should’ve been a freight train series

3 different coaches

Same problems

These dudes are charmin soft

Last night marked his 46th playoff game of 30+ points. He gets a bad rap because he couldn’t take Eric Gordon Clint Capella PJ Tucker and RoCo to the promised land. They had the Warriors on the ropes and then CP3 got hurt. Dude is a top 75 player all time and it’s bull shit that that fat fuck no talent ass clown is going to go on national television and laugh at the man.

Harden can’t win. He gets called a ball hog that will never be able to engage in the sacrifice it takes to be a winner. Dude has done that and the anti-Harden talk just evolves to say he’s washed.

Dude, it's about a lot more than that group. His playoff failures are a real thing. \

That's because he's been a ball hog his entire career. Just enjoy that it looks like he may have figured some things out and the Sixers are benefitting. No need to try to rewrite history.

Sixers are still and underdog in this series for good reason. There’s a long road ahead. That being said, I am glad that I will always have this. Al Horford came to Philadelphia and committed basketball terrorism. He was a straight crumb in Philly. Regardless of how this works out, I will always have this. Fuck you Al Horford and fuck Anna Horford’s big mouth as well.

I’ve kept receipts. Not quite time yet. Still much work to be done.

But like you told Hurricane Denver hasn't played on the road yet.

LOL.
Your point? It is much easier to win in 5 if you go up 2-0. I don't even think you're stupid enough to argue this.

I just dont go around celebrating if a team won their home games as they should. If cp3 isn't right then i fully expect denver to take 1 in Phoenix & win in 5

His big floppy ears are his fault. His fat fuck sister’s big mouth is his fault.
