[Kaykoose]

Sixers defense looks awful.... so many wide open 3s for the Celtics

[Meeksology]

C's at full strength would win the East. Only LeBron going to Philly will change that next year. People can disagree with they like.

I caveat that with the players you see now would have not developed without those big injuries. The crappy hand dealt via injuries will pay dividends in the long haul. The experience and confidence built is worth the sacrificed season.

I don’t care who the media chooses to hype up. the C’s are going to plow through the east next year like it’s a joke.

I tend to agree but man it would be fun watching these guys at full strength right now lol

The hell has gotten into Rozier these playoffs? LMAOOOO

[KHRICH]

They are better with embiid but the offense doesnt have as much flow with him or tempo

[Son_of_Slam]

embiid is good but looks like he'll age rapidly like ewing. and thank god we don't have to see ewing sweating at the foul line in modern HD.

Play time

Not as an excuse, but the sixers are rusty. There is nothing about brad Stevens. Sixers are missing players on defense and missing open shots, slappy turnovers.
Expect a much better game 2 from them.

Boy the Celtics are doing this without Brown, no Kyrie, and no Gordon Hayward! What could they have been if Hayward had not gotten hurt?

[life_saver]

This is modern basketball. Team who shoots 3's better will win. Against Miami 76ers shot like they were possessed and today... they are missing all the wide open shots. On the other end Boston is making all the shots. Most likely 3 point shooting is the thing that decides these series (and NBA champion to be honest).

this doesn't make any sense...if that's the case, then Rockets should be winning the championship this year

Almost.. It's not the amount of 3's you take you need to make those too.

Nets are in top5/6 in amount of 3's made but they are garbage. Warriors are right now somewhere around 15th in 3 point attempts per game..it's not just 3's...there are lot many more factors involved

[Theocy]

Have a feeling Philly's gonna steal this one. C's need to buy Horford another minute or two of rest.

We have wives girlfriends and partners to share feelings. Don't jynx the C's !

why give up so early ??? the game is nowhere close to over

[B-Ball Freak]

Can't beat the Celtics when Rozier turns into prime Ray Allen.

[life_saver]

Embiid should cut down his turnover count

[Celts17Pride]

Here come the excuses

[MalonesElbows]
