Lol at putting Embiid back in with a 20 point lead. Doc is an awful coach.

Joel should have attacked Capela in the 1st quarter. They don't have anyone else to defend him. Game is almost over and Capela is just now picking up fouls.

I'm done. Nothing left to see but the announcers doing a circle jerk.

Not really. A lot of people are picking the Hawks to win. The poll is split with Hawks winning in 6.

Yeah. Because people choose who they want to win. They are most definitely the underdog though. People chose the underdog.


People choose who they want to win against teams that they don't like. There's more Sixers bashing than Hawks praising after the Sixers loss. I wouldn't call that rooting for an underdog

Up 20 and risking Mr Glass who has a torn meniscus with only 6 minutes left? Seems dumb.

Big props to Simmons for the Trae lockdown. He was awesome. I just don't know how you win a championship with your primary ball handler only being a scoring threat in transition.

Thybulle is the best perimeter defender in the game. Dude is nuts.

I haven't read posts after the game, but that shows that a team is an underdog. I assume people talked trash because Sixers definitely should have won and didn't. That makes the Hawks the underdog.

The Hawks did what they had to do. I don't why the Sixers are acting like they just won game 1.

He kind of looks like a young Raja Bell with longer hair.
