Just when i was completely ready to blow the Process up they go to freaking Boston and pull this off with authority.

They making eat my words and i love it!

Everybody was great tonight and we looked like a well oiled, choesive and determined team. Really surprised me.

Also something smells bad in Boston, i think Brown doesn't want to be there anymore and Mazulla is also not ready for this moment. Lets finish them at home, we have to take advantage.

Yessir! Need to truly close them out in game 6. Doc coached a masterpiece tonight. He's going to have to do it again in two days. We better be ready because Boston is bringin it in game 6.

Signature playoff game for Embiid and Maxey signalling his arrival on the big stage. Just a phenomenal performance all around, Harden was brilliant as facilitator, Harris was solid in the first half, Tucker was great, and House was a huge addition. The P&R was absolutely lethal tonight, and Maxey had no hesitation, attacking all night. Best team win of the season.

Super impressive win. Hopefully Maxey has figured things out and brings the same impact to game 6.

I will admit that I am dumb as ****, I know NOTHING about basketball. Ya'll are GODS, and I'll keep that energy up no matter how this series end. But PLEASE keep the same energy up for 6th game. They'll be desperate and throw everything at us.

We haven't won the series yet, but a huge benefit of beating them would be Boston's subsequent demise.

Well....that was fun....first game this playoffs that the top 4 guys all played well.

That's why we tampered for House :)

Embiid shooting 90% FT's.

Everyone came out to play. Should have been a 30pt win if not for the refs.

Tatum -26 on 36pts.

I hope so, but feels like you don't know what you're going to get from both teams' star players from game to game.

Game 6 is an absolute must have. This series does not need to go back to Boston.

Job is not finished tho. Cannot come back here honestly


Didn't play great, and still played a great game. Definition of an MVP/Superstar.

His offense as far as his shot started getting warmer in the middle of the 3rd. His D has been insane all series long.

As others have said, Game 6 needs to be treated like we're down 1-2, or 0-3, or it's 2-2. Need to fight our lives and finish them off. WE give them life, and it'll be very hard to win with that crowd.

Still, we need to **** destroy them in game 6, last year the Bucks were in the same situation that us and lose the series.

Just go at them hard and play with their desperation

We did a good job rotating on shooters. Suddenly the shots we left open in the last g4 is covered.

Agree. Boston will not be playing conservatively. They have to take their chances. If we come out timid and afraid to lose we will be shooting ourselves in the foot.

Gonna be an even more of a grinder than any game this series. I'd bet the under and pray we step on their throat.
