Can't even been proper happy after those injury scares.

Just hoping Jaylen and Hayward are ok.

Missed some wide open shots while Philly pretty much had to work for every basket. Difference will be bigger next game.

And god, that sulking baby attitude of Embiid would drive me crazy if I were a Philly fan...

one of the tougher 1st round matchups a #2 will see. the nba is stacked, especially in the west. next season, east will probably have around 7 good teams and west will have about 10.

Might not have to wait too long.

Kind of crazy that he called Tatum when he was struggling. They're really close buddies :wink:

Too big

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.

With Gordon down and JB hurting Philly might win 4 in. Row. Just too big and strong.

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 love when fans of other teams come over here, as long as they aren’t garbage.

But like you said, use your real account.

I know Jaylen hit a ton of big shots, but Tatum was by far the best player on the court tonight.

I won’t fight anyone who gives Jaylen the VC though, we don’t win if he didn’t get it going in the 4th.

Philly turned the game around in the third when Tatum went to the bench.

3D chess kind of nailed it, he is basically Kawhi out there at this point. I know that sounds like blasphemy, but a monster defender who can go ISO whenever he wants, and the on/off numbers speak for themselves.

There are about three wings in the league that can go with JT on either end right now. Philly do not have one of them, and he knows it. That's Kawhi mode.

With the way he looks physically that could happen in about 4 years. Dude gives off a very Boogie Cousins vibe to me..

1:40 sec left 4 pt game, you got the ball Embiid with Theis on him down low and Brown running plays where Joel doesn’t even get the touch when you can make it a 2 pt game?? Lord

If Embiid can't score on Kanter inside, then the Sixers will never win a playoff game.

Brown and Tatum are special

Fun game. Not perfect, but considering the mediocre games from Kemba and Hayward and a poor offensive game from smart, will take it. Hope Hayward’s fine. Everyone who has played basketball has done that.

Brett Brown is the second biggest reason we'll win this series, behind Tatum. Our team is not built to handle Embiid but it doesn't matter with Brown calling the shots.

Philly spent $370 million on Harris and Horford?

Why can’t I be a NBA GM?

You missed a lot of wet spots on the court tonight, ball boy.
