Sixers won
But they expended a lot of energy
Good for Harden and Embiid but they need help from the others
Tobias 9 points?
Maxey 14 points?

Pathetic

Sixers offense sucks
Too much standing around
They are lucky they pulled this game out

I could see both teams firing their coaches after this game, let alone whichever one loses the series.

Harden bails out Philly which choked down the stretch before OT.

Philly got away with one. From about 8 mins left in the 4th (really the entire 4th) until the end of the game, they literally stopped running offense and made it ridiculously easy for Boston to defend. Everything was a Harden Iso or a Harden/Embiid PNR where Embiid would get the pass at the elbow and just stand there doing jack shit. Classic Doc Rivers. When he use to coach Boston and the Clippers, Bill Simmons would call it the "clogged toilet offense". Lucky for them, Boston mismanaged those final seconds

You saw the ref at the scorer's table. You saw smart flopping. You saw tatum pushing.
Yep, Tatum push there, just like Harden did a few times earlier. Truth is both teams get favorable calls throughout the game.

Yep 2 on 5 offense. The one set they ran for maxey ended up as an easy bucket for him

Yes, you are trolling instead of talking basketball. This is a series thread. Talk some series.
I have been. All you do is blame the refs even when you win.

The biggest story is the refs and the sixers getting lucky.

You didn't see the ref put his hands up trying to call the game for the celtics. You didn't see the game.
