Less dumb plays on offense and I think that we will be fine. Go at Reddick, Bellineli and whoever is guarding Horfie.
Good assessment:

Yup. Best case scenario for BOS is to resign Smart on a pretty cheap contract and then use all the momentum Rozier has built up in the playoffs and trade him. He's going to probably be too expensive for BOS to keep around after next year.
Rozier is not going anywhere. He's under contract next year and is a RFA the following year. He is staying here for next year at the very least.
Can't pay them all. Ainge will know what to do.

Ya and after next year he's going to be way too expensive to keep around. It would be smart for BOS to trade him and get something in return instead of just letting him walk next summer.

Tatum is gooooood....Colangelo can blow me....what an idiot
The Celtics were taking him either way.
That's the point my man....you don't make that kind of a trade with a rival especially when it was kinda known that the Celtics/Ainge were interested in Tatum....Colangelo got played big time

Why are Sixers fans so extraordinarily arrogant all of a sudden? It came out of nowhere.

You beat your chest how much more "superior" your team is, how you have "two top ten players" and now you cry about this?
Wahhhhhhhhhh. No pity.

Philly playing poor, Celtics shooting good. This will be the best chance for C's to win a game in series.

what's your point?
Just a comment. Seems like a d-bag - smirking and complaining and playing keep away and such. Non-playoff game and non-injured thumb, Smart may have taken a swing.
As a sixer fan, and I'm sure most agree, I love it.

The ratio of Philly fans to Celtics fans dropped dramatically in this thread

Sixers fans were celebrating a sweep before 1 minute was played. Nice try!

Philly was clearly cold for having so many days off. They're rusty and Boston has the advantage with just playing.

I think Fultz is still more talented. He was out for 68 games this season but he will be good next season.
He'll be good, I still think there is concern for his outside shot though. If I was Philly I still wouldnt shy away from more young shooting in the draft. Maybe one of the Bridges if available or Lonnie Walker.

Relax, mate. They have two top ten players. They'll be fine.
Enbiid is top 5. He's better than Kyrie and Gordon combined. Shocking they're not you by at least 25 right now

I don't blame you for not knowing, but Boston had the first pick.

I’ll own this. I reaaaaly underrated Tatum earlier this year. Credit where credit is due. Dude is gonna be great. Unbelievable what he’s been doing as a rookie in the playoffs.

man i been annoyed by Celtic fans on the GB all season long but started to feel bad for you guys because of injuries. I even rooted for you against the bucks and was happy for this series because i thought it would be close despite injuries but man you guys are so annoying i hope the sixers sweep you guys that is how arrogant some of you have been. Its only been the first half of game one your panties shouldnt be this wet already sheesh.

Brad Stevens is the best coach in the league, right now. Pop has had the better career, but as far as coaching and connecting with today's players, I gotta say Brad Stevens is the best in the league.
