Well, I didn't expect that.

But I think Game 6 is something of a legacy game for Embiid and Harden now. I'm a bit surprised they pulled out Game 5 in Boston, and I don't see them winning Game 7 in Boston. If they blow a 3-2 lead with a chance to close it out at home, people will have stuff to say.

He showed up, need him to do it again if BOS is gonna deny Harden the ball or the driving lanes as effectively as they did tonight. Harris needs another performance like tonight, but to avoid foul trouble.

This was a huge win for the Sixers, but also a huge win for Maxey. It felt like an overcoming moment for him who's struggled a lot against Boston.

The difference is the coaching.

Not disagreeing but loom who is on the other bench :lol: .


I know. That's what so sad. Joe can't out-coach Doc.
