I don't care how much a team is reeling, it's just so unlikely.

Just happy this is a series now.


I feel the same way - I just wanted to get home for Game 6. I got my wish.

The crowd is going to be insane though. Philly is going to need to dominate to beat us at home.

it's unlikely....but all the pressure is on Doc Rivers, Harden, and Embiid......Raptors are playing with house money...and going home to a crowd that is ready to explode.

It’s quite astonishing. He can’t shoot, can’t finish, can’t get by his man…all in the space of a few months.

Since the beginning of February he’s had these shooting performances:

6/19
2/11
5/15
3/17
5/19
5/12
5/12
7/18
2/11
4/15
4/13
3/12

Playoffs:

6/17
3/9
5/17
4/11


I’m generally not as anti-Harden as most are but man it’s shocking

100% Raptors are still the underdogs here and it's still something we're expected to lose.

But wow, they're making it fun.

If it wasnt for that embiid buzzer things would be looking quuuite different. Also Harden really looking like just a guy now.

Harden isn't even playoff choke artists harden he looks like a 40 yr old version of himself. Embiid thumb injury is worse than we thought. This game clearly showed sixers have a weaker supporting cast than jokic.

The feeling's mutual.

Goran Dragic's "higher ambitions" have been achieved tonight.

It seems like Nurse has made the needed adjustments. Maxey has been contained, and it seems like they have Embiid figured out. Either way, it's funny how the Raptors literally have nothing to lose. All the pressure is on Philly.

You mean not playing an injured Fred?
