This game has a WEIRD flow to it. It feels disjointed on both ends. If Boston wasn't knocking down the 3s, this is one hella ugly game.

Boston has more talent than Philly.
But this is really bad for Philly, getting whooped even when Tatum is stinking up the place.

This game has been rough so far. Outside of Tyrese Maxey, nobody on the 76ers are showing on offense. We need gain some significant momentum before this game gets out of control.

Boston is probably the most dependent team in the league on 3 balls. If they are hitting them like today they are unbeatable. if they miss they look like the worst team

For sure! 28 points for Philly halfway through the second quarter in a closeout game. Celtics doing their part to strange it up as well.

so what ur saying is that MVPiid is much better than Jokic because of "defense" yet somehow the C's are probably at 122 offensive rtg for this series, despite Tatum bricking everything for half of the series?

Philly fans won’t be able to take this. They are tired of shortcomings. Wtf is this effort?

If the Sixers go on a 5-0 run, Joe call a timeout!

Celtics are hot from 3. Philly hasn't been tight on the perimeter.

If Boston wasn’t hitting 3s you’d be watching a Raptors game.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?
Please advise….

Honestly they focus wayyy too much on Tatum on defense. It worked last game because the Celtics role players couldn’t buy a basket but if they’re hitting it, it’s gonna be tough for them to win.

Doris Burke is horrible, I rather have Webber or JR Smith or goomba123 do the commentary
Why Embiid decide to just jackup 3's and not play defense ? Smart and Brown both went right at him

Embiid + Harris are 2-14 combined. Harden is 2-8.

He'll get one block and ESPN will replay it 20 times and tell you how amazing he is.

Brown is so much better than Tatum in big games. It's not even a debate at this point.

Why does Tatum think he is curry? I would have benched his ass if he attempted another 3 without trying to drive in and play in the post multiple times. This is why pop is a different coach because he would not stand for this time of play.
