I'm calling it now, this series will go 7 100%

Six at the most. My guess is five.

Idk. Harden won't play that bad again I think

Hopefully it’s because they do something stupid on the DuckBoats.

Brown. Smart gets a puff too.

Guess we'll see if they can bring this level of intensity to Game 3. They tend to yo-yo alot.

Maybe #0 will decide he wants to play? Who knows?

I would like to add since there has been much discussion on what point guard should be finishing the game

Their answer is now very clear to me..

It's Payton pritchard 8-)

Philly after winning game 1 without Embiid and getting smashed by 34 in game 2 with him

No, but he should be playing more as a change of pace player

JB shining when the lights are bright! He’s a dawg and has that J Butler in him…… Smahhhhttttt gets a few puffs tonight! That reverse alley was nasty! He was all over the court tonight, guarding Embiid etc. Brogs was nice too! Let’s go, JT is due for an MVP like game in Philly!

Better than 0-2

But not as good as 2-0

Jaylen was a **** animal.

Tatum sucked and Friday Joel gets his MVP trophy..you know what I smell? I smell a 45+ piece from JT incoming.

Btw Joe going away from the defensive scheme helped a **** ton, didn’t it? Dude doesn’t have to be Phil Jackson out here..just don’t **** kill your own team with stupid schemes.

Just a reminder to people, Tatum did have 39 points, 11 rebounds on 56% shooting in Game 1. Tonight was just a tough night because of foul trouble. Thankfully the Celtics didn’t need a huge effort from him tonight

We're favored by -1.5 on Friday, for anyone who cares. I think we'll get that one. As Luke once said, "We got our minds right, bossman ".

I hope you're right. Our best is definitely better than theirs but the consistency is really not there some times.

One game at a time I guess

Like I said yesterday, Harden going 13-22 (7-12) on tightly contested shots in game 1 was flukey as hell.

They played drop coverage all night tonight lol.

The only difference was Embiid being in and that they doubled him and put Smart on him at times. And played Grant more.

Drop coverage usually works when the guards fight over screens, which the Celtics had not been doing well since Game 2 vs. Atlanta.

Who smokes the big playoff cigar?
