All said and done, the Celtics are a weak NBA finals contender historically.

Just the sight of Eric Lewis made Harden and Embiid crap the bed. Whats the point in playing well if the refs will just decide the game anyway? They might have won with a different officiating crew

Eric Lewis just padding his win total with the Celtics

Embiid's new nick should be the choker, or chokic for short

P.S. And Doc Rivers is not "a hall of fame coach"!!

This. PHI only has 2 ball handlers (BOS has like 5). PHI has no perimeter defenders. BOS has like at least 2.

3, 2, 1...........


Dame is staying in Portland, he has already said teamhopping ain’t a guarantee on you winning a championship, especially when you are dealing with nba refs


That's what Dame is saying, doesn't mean after yet another extremely disappointing season with a roster that isn't even remotely close to contending but actually is now primarily made up of young players -- that POR as a franchise will want to continue down that path.

I fully expect there to be a "mutual agreement" to part this ways this summer when management sits down with him to discuss that they just think they're just too far off to realistically create a championship caliber team. Because short of PHI being willing to ironically trade them Embiid, there is no player they can obtain right now that's going to put them in championship contention and I don't see the most overrated GM of all time, Darryl Morey admitting defeat.

It's a job...wish people would realize fans care more than the players like 99% of the time. This is their job, they want to win of course, but at the end of the day, they are still living a great life and want for nothing.

1. Wrong thread.

2. Dubs are currently irrelevant. Find fresh material.

Say what you want. Embiid (and Celtics) showing class at the end hugging each other. No shame losing.

I just don’t know when embiid will ever get lucky and actually be healthy.

Celtics (Tatum) just got hot end of game 6 and sixers folded.

Game 7 5-55. And the rest was history.
