Just look at the comments in this thread and how people turn on players with every missed shot. The Playoffs are back baby.

Well, we didn't win the game until Romeo Langford entered in the 4th to seal it!

Huge difference in coaching already in only game 1. They have to fire Brown soon

It wasn’t pretty but we got the W. If we play with some pace this would be a lot easier for us.

Shame. Could have been a genuinely great series were Simmons healthy. Just wasn't meant to be this year.
. This will be a 4-2 Sixers series I’m positive

Too big
Too strong


I like the attitude bro. But fair warning, this board is quick with the warnings for anything that isn't pro Celtic by a non Celtic board member.

Might want to stay in the 76ers board.

I can't wait till Embiid becomes a Celtic at the end of his career when he's chasing rings like Shaq did in 2010-11. Lol

The only thing this thread is missing is 6ers83 predicting Philly winning the series 4-2 enough times.

We never used to be, that's a fairly recent development. Honestly wish we had more visitors / engagement with opposing fanbases.

But, you have to bring real content. Not whatever this burner account is bringing.

I don't think it feels like summer league but definitely doesn't feel like your typical playoff game. You can't substitute the playoff atmosphere you get at the garden. Still better than nothing and still very enjoyable though.
