Maybe but they have no matchup for Bron. Thad and Bojan were pretty good, this is where they need Hayward.

Tatum Morris Brown


Tatum will get demoralised. Morris has good size but poor instincts. Brown is the guy, just not sure if he shows up.

Really looks like Celtics can dethrone Lebron(if he is still in the East) and Warriors as soon as next year.

Yes but their best player is a wily vet and they have the best coach in basketball. Plus no one was picking them to win.


Haha I edited my post. Didn't really want to get into that discussion again on second thought.

I don't completely disagree with you. I just think people are too quick to excuse the Sixers' youth when guys like Brown, Tatum, and Rozier are killing it and just as young if not younger in some cases.

Brett Brown had some questionable rotations but he didn't make those idiotic turnovers, missed layups, and missed dunk. That's on our players.

22 points in 26 shots.

Plus the slowness to his game.

He will be a great player, but I don't think it'll be as great as people here believe. I am talking offensively, I think defensively sky is the limit for the kid.

Specially in today's league.

Offensively among big men, I still think Unicorn has the highest ceiling. Now will he get close to it and have the health to do it is another question.

I am really impressed by the celtics. They just win. Even missing their two best guys. It's crazy.

People were to high on the sixers before this series started and underestimated the Celtics ..

I’m shocked on how many people thought the sixers were gonna win this so easily

Damn this is impressive. Both Raptor fans and players are huge fans of Lebron. The playoff results are starting to make a lot more sense.

A coach can only do so much if players don't execute


Exactly, Brown didn't cause Reddick to throw the ball away. Stupid to throw all the blame on him.

“Tatum will get demoralized”
Why? Tatum could make him work on both sides of the court.
Bet with Stillwater Celtics will finish 6th or higher in ECF Standings Regular Season(17-18). [WON]

Agreed, this wasn't a horrific coaching performance from him like game 2. This was on the players.
