Let's put together a better performance.
Good assessment:

No Kyrie and no Baynes? Brad should go full Pop and rest everybody.

No Irving, sixers have improved, Celtics suck on the road coming off two of the worst regular season losses I've seen in 10 years.

Should be a solid 20 point loss.

If only the Celtics performed as reliably well as Parl does in putting these game threads together, we'd be in great shape!

Celtics by 30. If only to confound us further.

Continuing with the theme that this team has this year where nothing makes any sense, I wouldn't be surprised if we won big. We need it.

Could see us getting waxed here. Philly has been taking more L's from us than any other team in the NBA and this is a perfect chance for them to beat the crap out of a slumping team. Specially without Kyrie and Baynes. JJ and Embiid will have great games.

Start Wanamaker. Go win. He'll probably have his whole family in the stands.

Also be prepared for Markieff to be in the stands. Please don't fall for this trap, Ainge.

I feel like we have an equal chance of winning by 30 and losing by 30. I'm not sure if that's a good thing.

We need Marcus Smart to mix it up. Or possibly Smart with Embidd. Get our guys jacked up

To me, this Sixers squad looks like they've got everything they need to compete with anybody. They're my favorites to come out of the east, and imo will be no easy out for GS.

Oops. Wrong thread.

Robert Kraft at the Sixers game sitting next to Magic. That was hard to watch.

Philly looking good. Kuzma has 37 going into the 4th.

Looking forward to the March game and us having beers beforehand.

Hopefully we will be healthy and it will be a much better measuring stick.

Well they just lit up the Lakers 143-120. The Harris trade really beefed them up.
