Game 55: Sixers Vrs Celtics (In our house).

[phillynative]

Kyle Lowry to play in the second half lol

[Mik317]

Getting good looks just not making them

Also like how they are cutting on the post ups when they double

Good idea just not getting anything out of it

[phillynative]

Grimes gotta hit those wide open 3s . That's why your here my guy

[phillynative]

It's time for Maxey to get going. Focusing too much on the cripples offensively

[phillynative]

They make every open 3. Why can't the sixers make open 3's. I can't wait till Jared Mccain returns, he going to elevate the offense by being a sharpshooter with a sprinkle of shot making and playmaking ability.

I believe Grimes should continue to start because of his size and defensive ability but he is not a dynamic as McCain is even as a rookie.

I'm amazed how many people like Oubre. The guy has always been a basketball loser. Perfect process Sixer. Will score 20 on a bad team.

Fire Nurse & Morey!

[Negrodamus]

NN is terrible

Nerlens can’t hurt us anymore.

He plays hard and outside of getting hit by a car he also just plays in general. Our lack of athletic wings makes that all he needs to do to impress

[Jhawk03]

Fantastic loss, need to get this tank in full gear once and for all.

[ExplosionsInDaSky]

Boston is so damn good. Nobody will beat them in this postseason.

[ExplosionsInDaSky]

Need a miracle out of Brooklyn and another from Charlotte. At least we took care of business by losing.

[ExplosionsInDaSky]

Grimes is a competitor, but I'm not gonna cry if he walks this summer.

We’re falling into the trap of playing outdated basketball by deliberately force feeding the ball to Embiid against a smaller defender. It’s the right option but it’s easy for the defense to read and rotate. This slows down the offense, makes it easier for the defense to send help and rotate, and limits our ability to generate open looks.

Perimeter players aren’t creating much activity either, but that’s expected—they can’t beat most of these Celtics defenders in isolation, so they’re funneled their option to dump it to embiid with a mismatch inside. But Celts are prepared for the help and the rotate.

Meanwhile, the Celtics have multiple ways to break down our defenders, collapse the defense high, and attack a wide-open paint. Their offense is simply more fluid and difficult to contain.

We have made 3 3s all game man. Getting good looks too

3pt shooting
Sixers 3/22
Celtics 17/30

[ExplosionsInDaSky]

I would complain about only three rebounds from Joel tonight, but Boston shooting 80% from the floor hasn't given him much of a chance to even grab a rebound.

[76ciology]

Trading Oubre open 3 vs Horford open corner 3. It’s different quality of 3s

[Mik317]

Biid is so cooked. He just passed up a middy for that pass to Oubre

lol this franchise

[Mik317]

Wide open shots man

[76ciology]

You can’t have these much holes on defense against the Celts. Makes you think twice if this two midget backcourt unit will work.
