PLAYOFFS: Rnd 2, Gm 4 – Celtics (2) @ Sixers (1) – 3:30PM, Sun, May 7, 2023

[Bleedsgreen]

One positive is that Jaylen never picked up another foul after those two quick ones. At least that's not a concern.

Unfortunately it clearly effected his play and took him out of his mind space, on Defense and even offense.

[BRUNiNHO91]

Tatum has to get his **** together. He has to at least get to the line. Bro has been a non factor in two out of 3 1/2 games so far.

No more Brogdon on Harden please. Brogdon might be better off covering Tobias or even Embiid (then send timely double).

Weird stat: The Sixers are +1 in the 21 minutes Harden played, and +8 in the 3 minutes that he did not.

Finished the half well, could've been a lot worse. Celts need to stick around, keep it single digits.. Anything can happen in the 4th

[ThumbsUpBaby]

Despite a poor first half, at least the team is down under 10 points. Still a winnable game.

I know Tatum sucked throughout the first half, but he's usually reliable for the second half, and as a closer. I expect him to start cooking.

Got to come out and get a little run quickly next quarter. Guys are bound to play a little better shooting wise. Hope JB slows Harden down a bit and we get this close going into the 4th.

I'd put brogdon on anyone but james. i thought he easily bumped through white some too but it could have been brogs and I misremembered.

Jaylen took 4 shots in twelve minutes in the second after taking 7 shots in 8 minutes in the first quarter.

I like that he was kicking the ball around, had some good looks they missed. But he might need to be more aggressive this game.

Tatum needs to keep attacking. He didn't get calls, but you attack enough and the whistles will come.

[Bostondave]

Tatum dribbles too much and gives enough time for the defenders to set in. Trade him for a big while his value still high. He shows up every 5 games or so.

I been thinking similar. Roll with Brown. I'd do it.

[tfribs45]

Down by 9, watch how things are about to change!!

[Shak_Celts]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[fallguy]

Down to 7.

[Kalela]

Al Horford has been god awful on defense today

He has been all series against perimeter players. In fact he has been targeted since the first game. Same with Brogdon.

[Shak_Celts]

GO SKATE GO!!

[fallguy]

Down to 5.

[The_Ghost_of_JB]

Harden clearly not missing this game

[VeryMuchWoke]

Embiid went up and down with it but no jump?

[Fencer reregistered]

Wowza. I thought the Cs were giving up on a potential rebound, then Tatum crashed and got the OR and putback.

[fallguy]

Way better start.
