Might have overestimated the Sixers.

That said, too much rest and they came in with too much of a high.

How they respond in game 2 will be telling.

AWful defense by the 6ers. Wide open 3s all night for everyone.
There was a sequence in 4th quarter where they left Horford alone two possesions in a row. And he scored both times

Man I don’t even know what to attribute the Celtics success to? Is it all Brad Stevens or just tons of talent. Funny comp is the patriots where they keep losing players and don’t skip a beat. I thought Philly would mop the floor with them

Rozier is most definitely a starting PG in this league.

I feel a hell of a lot more confident now after seeing that Philly defense.

That's what happens when the other team gets to your head.

Don't worry, you have all the time to rewatch Celtics win until game 2.


He’s not worth the time. Let him bathe in his salty tears. :lol:


Stay classy Bston. We expect nothing less ;)

Yo chill, bro. You might get reported. :lol:
Good assessment:

You do realise that with the exception of one or two pieces the same applies to the C's yes?

Also fans are celebrating the win and messing around with people who were expecting a blowout win for the sixers. So the banter is well deserved.

Also FYI check the voting above and assess how fan bases anticipated this series to unfold.

Colangelo screwed the 76ers. Imagine Tatum in place of Markelle Bustz, how different their futures would be.

Celtics objectively have the better future then Philly.

Wow I was so wrong about this series being a sweep.

Stevens game plan was impeccable.

Still expect the Sixers to win, but it will be difficult if they play this kind of terrible defense. Not sure what they were thinking.
