I knew Hawks would regret Lou leaving time on the clock. Saw it coming a mile away.

Shake Milton comes in and the game is suddenly over.
The Wizards shoukd have drafted Derik Queen

As good as Milton has been that is how bad Williams has been.

I'd go Hack a Dwight, why not

Dwight sealed the paint on Bogie and was just dying to get a touch. That was a nice putback.

Let’s see if McMillan does what Malone did last night and let the game get away while his star is on the bench

And that is why you continue to ride your bench (or any player, who's having a bad night) if it's part of your system. Now the Sixers know they have a bench and will use that in Games 3 and 4....

Or more wise, rest his stars and go home tied 1-1 feeling you've accomplished what you aimed for in the first two games anyway.

Every shot Shake Milton makes is a complete fluke. You hate it as an opposing fan to watch a player like him who's avg. 2 ppg in the playoffs to just get flukey hot and start hitting shots that you know he doesn't practice or consistently make. It's one of those nights...

Too early for hack a Simmons/Howard. Cause u put Sixers in penalty and Embiid gonna to be drawing fouls like crazy in the penalty as they take out Simmons and Howard.

Have you seen the defense on Trae?

Have you seen all the open looks he’s getting Curry/Green?



I respect defending your countrymen, but his own offense is hurting them equally as badly on the other end.


It’s not his offense hurting them. He’s getting them open look after open look. They’re rolling offensively - 39/70 From the field and 10/19 from
3. Where they are hurting is on the defensive end. Atlanta is hunting Curry/Green on the other end. Letting guys like Gallo/Bogi/Huerter kill them. Simmons has done his job.

Also the bench not scoring until 3 mins left in the third quarter is what hurt them.

Stop looking at the box score
