27/10/5 for Tatum. In what the doubters will say is an off game for him. Hustled his ASS off all night on the glass. I so enjoy watching Jayson Tatum silence doubters.

Timelord needs to be okay. He was low key really good in this game.

if you get it down from 13 in about 30 seconds, 10 in 20 seconds is a breeze. whatever that was with tmac in houston. :lol:

Great win in a hostile environment.

Great must win game. Defense is getting better and better the last two games. Sunday is a must win game.

Well that was worth staying up for until silly o clock in London but what better way to start the Kings coronation weekend (just kidding). Fantastic win, really glad we gritted it out without any one player shining. Have to give it to Grant for his mettle in that one. He has really won me over there, made of tough stuff to come back after literally getting his head kicked in. Time lord really made a difference and I hope he’s ok. We will close this out, no doubt. Hopefully we will get the knicks next round

Update?

Thankfully it didn't turn out to be, but we played like idiots for a good stretch there. Tatum just hit a couple tough looks.

Tatum did what Tatum does.

We almost Blew that.

They actually kept their composure pretty well, especially when you consider they had to adjust late for injuries (Williams x 2) and Jaylen's foul trouble.

Definitely.
Really Glad that we didn't crumble, when those 3 went out.

takes a crazy amount of toughness to have a 280 lbs guy ram your head into the floor with his foot, have your head go face first into the floor, have blood coming from your face and then be back in the game like 2 mins later.

We nearly dropped that 13 point to heat in game 7 last season with not much more than a minute left

Yes, it was mostly his missed 3's and occasional poor shot selection. But he had a good game. He makes a couple more threes and it would have been epic, especially with his poise down the stretch.

Hate Doris Burkes. These announcer's get so excited when the Sixers make a bucket, but when the Celtics get a bucket, it's very low key. They should be banned from announcing a Celtics game ever again. Just don't bring back the corpse of Hubir Brown.

How is that greedy...All they did was get home court back. They should play like they are down 2-1

Came here to see if anyone else was tired of Doris' $hit. If I have to hear about Embiids 280 lb body one more time I'm going to vomit.

Doris doesn't bother me. We always play well in front of her. And I like Mark Jones so that helps. The stuff she said about Philly felt like the kinds of comments Scal would've made had he been calling the game. In unrelated news, Mike Breen is a complete douche.

I fully expect C's to win game 4 and then LOSE game 5
