He has a long windup on his 3 but he had 2 so far he really should have shot. Thybulle isn’t the dawg PJ is. As the playoffs progress you will see why PJ is a chip piece

Sucks for them. Embiid is a hell of a player who is incredibly easy to root for. I never understood 'hating' on basketball players anyways

Its alright. Same plan. Keep it close and let them shrink.

This game clearly shows that Brown is the far more worse match-up and thus the bigger threat to us than Tatum. Where as we have Harris, Tucker, etc. to guard Tatum, we have nobody really to guard Brown.

Also, Brogdon is a nightmare match-up as well.

Too many players turning down open 3’s. Glenn better ream them out about it at half.

Wow the Celtics are a team full of a$$holes. We're down 8. They didn't blow us out in the 2nd quarter and if it was gonna happen, it would have been then. We're in this. Gonna have to grind this out though. Boston is in control right now. Again, there's no excuse for Marcus Smart beating us. It absolutely should not be happening.

Harden being cold from three is a problem in any game against a good team.

That's the issue with Harden, consistency is completely gone in the last years, he can put an amazing performance but more offense than not he will have a bad scoring day.

I think that could have been worse. We're shooting 17% from 3, that's the entire game.

Embiid is also having a great game even when is obvious he isn't 100%.

I'm worried about PJ tho, it's obvious Boston it's consciously making him screen for Harden and blitzing so PJ has to finish the play, at this rate PJ is gonna become unplayable and McDaniels isn't playing that well either.

Also, Maxey needs to stop fouling, he cannot be in foul trouble the entire series

Still, Harden should try to switch on Tatum early in the 3rd and get his 4th foul. I don't care if it's grifting, just do it.

I said that Niang shouldn't even sniff the floor in this series and I was right. So what does our boneheaded coach do? He puts him in.

If they were shooting 17% it'd be a good deal better than the 7.7% they actually shot from 3 in the 1st half.
