Nah I’m good. They can shoot ridiculously in a game that is an L. Successful road trip. Sixers can’t make anything. Celtics can’t miss from deep right now. Glad it all happened in the same game.

 

[The Q]

Derrick White.

If they have white on him and not harden or maxey that’s just mazzula posting his Ls

They’ve had that on a switch all night. This game was just an abortion. Only take away is that over the course of the game Embiid started to look like himself. Playing him tonight was a great decision. First night back was a hurdle that had to be cleared. Best that happens in what has become a non competitive game.

Celtics are front runners who are good when shots are going down. Glad they’re just able to flush this game. Hey, how about what I said about this series that’s showing up tonight. White and Brogdan kill the Sixers those guys have made plays all night.

I suspect this series, like the GS-LA series to go at least 6...but probably 7.
Provided both teams in both series remain relatively healthy through the duration.
Same with the Knicks - Heat series fwiw.

I also think Denver will eliminate Phoenix in 5.

They are 100% front runners who should’ve buried the hawks and sixers almost entirely by now

Why can't Boston play defense like this most every night?

There's no good reason... aside from uneven desire and focus.

Takes them getting embarrassed on their home floor the other night to bring it out for the next game... we'll see if they can hold on to it for the rest of the series (and playoffs, hopefully).

Boston wanted it more tonight

Their A game is the best left in the field, minus maybe Phoenix…but Phoenix lacks so much depth it’s hard for them to get it.

Must win for them. Glad they let Embiid work up a lather and they were able to keep minutes down. Big hurdle now is what does that knee look like tomorrow with swelling. I think he should back in the locker room getting treatment as soon as the 4th started.

I don’t like the mojo of a normal ass game fit, James. Should have brought back that Yo Gabba Gabba piece from Monday night.

Nice purse.

It’s their strongest asset but they act cocky

It’s a

They're just not killers.

Boston doesn't play like they're playing tonight the majority of the time.

They let up or lose focus.

Because they’re soft front runners

Idk how you come into a playoff game unfocused
