We have done nothing this series to warrant a fraction of the praise from national analysts. Want respect? Earn it by winning and playing consistently good, something we have not done as much as the Celtics in the Brett Brown era, quite frankly.

I see Embiid is still instructed to drop against pick and roll. It's like we are not down 0-3

For you, its Burks' job to carry us, not the two guys getting paid a combined $60M and providing ZERO.

Don't understand why we even keep either of them.


Im not saying they’re bad. Im not saying to trade them. But both have to step up.

Biid’s defense has been declining. Look at his numbers.

Ben is still the same player since his rookie year.

Tatum went from being a 15ppg to a 23ppg player.

Jaylen brown is now a 20ppg player who can shoot 3s.

I dont know man..

Last two seasons we have one of the most talented starting unit. And this season, we are one of the deepest teams in the league.

Ownership have been willing to spend. FO has been putting a lot of talent.


I really hope you are getting paid by someone for this nonstop trolling, shilling, and gaslighting. It would be a shame for you to do all this for free.


This. What a weirdo. Him and that other guy.

Lol are you seriously suggesting it’s only fans that expected the Embiid/Simmons/Horford lineup to work. The FO obviously expected to use Horford for more than like 8 minutes a game as a backup to Embiid. Pretending like fans are the ones with the unrealistic expectations when the Horford lineup was such a disaster they had to move him to the bench at the all star break is like shameful level gaslighting.


Look at our top 10 most used 5 man unit, then get back to me.

What do you mean? You’re suggesting Horford is doing what was expected and we have the unrealistic expectations when which would have to assume the FO either (a) knew our starting lineup with Horford would have issues; or (b) really did expect him to play like 10 minutes a game and Brett just went rogue. Either makes no sense. They obviously expected Embiid/Simmons/Horford to fit and they didn’t. If you told them Horford’s value would strictly be as Embiid insurance they almost certainly go a different direction and overpay someone else.

I want to see Brett fired and with a better coach let's see how good Embiid really is on defense, because what I'm seeing is ridiculous, hope it is just a scheme thing, dude looks slower out there though.
Great takes since 2024-04-20

Nope.

We adjusted. Even our guys know Biid was wrong there and he’s evidently very slow right now on D

Seems like the Celtics know how to get the most out of their stars. Sixers should consider doing something similar.
