You're seriously trying to put this game on Tatum? Lol. He's practically the only Celtic who has showed up

Brown - 9 FGM on 14 FGA
Tatum - 10FGM on 26FGA
That's almost inexcusable and shows absolutely no game sense at all.

Boston is still in striking distance if Philly isn't careful

Yeah I thought this was Boston in 5 after they got that blown game 1 out of their system, that Philly could only hope Boston gave another game away. Apologies to Philly.

Why would you have Embiid handle the ball out there? Spread them out, and hit him in the high post. wtf.

Great team effort from Philly tonight. Embiid, Harden, Maxey, and Harris all showed out.

That duo has been on the clock to expire ever since Brown called out Celtics fans for their racism.

It's the modern NBA, nothing is done here.
On the other hand, Celtics rely wayyy to heavily on iso play with no real movement on offense

Wow Sixers this is special. Slander on the MVP, Harden status as a star and even the “unreliables” like Harris and Maxey and everyone is playing well tonight.
I had Boston winning this game and i was completely wrong! Congrats in winning the series!

Feels like game 5 vs the Bucks last season.
Bucks came in to Boston and beat us and we go down 3-2. Everyone said series was over and then Tatum pulls out one of the all time playoff performances in game 6 and we finish them off at home in 7.

These Tatum drives to the basket that end in him jumping and making a desperation pass mid air...just stop...

I wont be shocked if they lose this series if Brown calls out his role with the team.

The thing about Brown/Tatum is they still both do the exact same thing which is score and they’re good defenders. But the problem is when you have a good guard/wing combo somebody has to be the playmaker, score a little less and do the other things like Pippen/Jordan, Wade/Lebron or hell even Kobe/Odom

Tucker has 0 points yet it feels like he has been of the most impactful players today. Every team needs a PJ
