Celtics literally guarding Embiid with wings while Al helps off Tucker.

How clueless is this head coach? This is unheard of.

I’ll never forgive JB for **** ending our season basically letting harden shoot a wide open three when the Celtics were in control. Team killed themselves this series and the Sixers were due to outplay the Celtics completely at some point in a game and they’re doing it now with all the momentum

Reggie and Doris need to go… they just can’t call a game without bias.

Sixers need to just have Embiid go to the post with Smart guarding him. Have Tobias and Harden run the 2 man game.

Trade White, Smart for starters. Retain Pritchard. Fire Joe... let's go!!

Can we fire Joe even if we just signed him?

Time to start booing and the fire Mazzulla chants

The unfinished business was apparently showing us how they'll choke sooner this year. Who knew?

Am I allowed to criticize Joe Mazzulla in this thread?

Kevin Harlan might be the only one who still thinks we can win

They've been in all game.

I kid....but most of them have been playing like it.

Oddly, there is still time but it would require a quick regression to mean.

One of the puzzling stories of the series

Why Brown gets so few shot attempts is the most mind boggling thing ever.

unfinished business my ass

They came back like they just won 3 titles and didn't want to play defense anymore.

That's what they came back as.

Ok, cut it close to down 10.... there's a chance here. Almost shut this **** right off.

A big problem with this Celtics team is they don't really force turnovers, its virtually impossible to make a big comeback when the other team gets to use a lot of shot clock then get the ball on the rim every single possession.

The 76ers have only 6 turnovers this game. last year the c's were turnover prone, but at least they forced turnovers on defense.

Lol. His team’s up by plenty give me a break. His superstar has showned up and their players are making shots.

Smart hit his first 2 shots, both three's, and hasn't hit a shot since except free throws. Also, only 3 assists all game. If he is our "heart and soul) then maybe it's time for a new heart and soul. The one we have seems broken.

Funny thing is I had a bad feeling about this game.

Very confident in game 6 though for whatever reason.
