Nice to have a 4 point lead but the Celtics left a bigger lead out there.

Good half. Defense took over after offense petered out.

To me, it seems like there is less arc, a little flat. And everything is either in and out, or misses short.

Less individual ball, keep up that D. Can we play faster please? WE HAVE THE BODiES!

It feels weird that I'm expecting every shot Tatum takes to miss regardless of how open it is. Hopefully this prolonged slump ends soon.

Tatum needs to stop being so down on himself when he misses his shots.

Romeo should be getting some minutes. Relegating him to the bench and completely eliminating him may undo all the progress he has made so far in this season.

Yeah. Why did we slow down???
Very Curious.

He's a Shooter. But, he has 9 Rebounds.
Needs to expand his game. Dare I say.

Not enough minutes for Richardson, Langford and Nesmith. Something has to give sooner or later. Expect one of them to be moved.

Oh, I hope that they don't get moved.

Wishing this double-big the entire game is a one-off since we're dealing with Embiid. Less Grant and no Langford bother me. But Freedom has been playing well. Pace is just too slow. And no driving lanes all game.

I think it’s because of Embiid

Sixers with small edges in FT shooting and TOs. Without that, the Cs would have a wider margin.

Impressive how Embiid and Enes are shutting each other down. Post scoring really is a relic. I'm not sure I even mind. I loved McHale-era post scoring. But I hated Shaq's version.
