Conference Semifinals: Boston Celtics (2) vs Philadelphia 76ers (3)

[trojanfan12]

Philly just cut the lead to 26.

Comeback imminent.

Embiid and Harden have run out of time. Who you are as an athlete is defined in Game 7s. I’ve always believed that. These guys revealed who they are. Sixers would be wise to clean house.

Every
Thing
Must
Go!

Tatum and Brown are those guys. Celtics didn’t play their best ball in this series at times but watching them in games 6 and 7 you are looking at a confident bunch going forward.

Congrats Celtics fans and good luck. I hate you because you’re damn good. For the entirety of NBA history, the Celtics have been the Sixers daddy. That story plays out time and time again. I think that makes the Sixers now 0-6 in series vs the Celtics over the last 41 years.

And what is the alternative?

Who are you replacing him with?

You giving him the max it might take to retain him?

Sign and trade his ass for something…

Turn that something into a piece that compliments your star.

Right there with you.

Maybe if we combined rosters, we could get over the hump?

Probably not.

All my toys are broken.

I'll be honest, I'm still nervous. I might be alone here, but it's how I am.

Just saying, I don’t think they much choice unless they want to blow it up and rebuild.

They aren’t getting a better player, that is for sure.

Bro, the audience is throwing bras and panties on the court asking for an encore.

 

[msgkings322]

Insert Liu Kang gif…

You gonna bail on them after every loss next series too?

 

[DJ Fieri]

They should trade him then

I never said that but others on here were ruthless.

You can’t max a guy that gets outplayed by Marcus Smart in game 7.

Not when this is the norm for him.
