I don’t really like reenforcing that you can go down this bad and still have a chance

BUT, I like the idea of Philly losing much more.
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

The only thing moreEmbarrassing than Boston’s effort is Philly fourth q effort.

Look at the offense. This is what an offense is supposed to look like. Movement with your two best decision makers handling the ball.

Cs are just not the same team from last season.

They're just not shooting the ball well this regular season.

Joe can definitely derail them if he doesn’t put the ball in the right guys hands.

He doesn't move as quick but still has really good hands.
