Great games from Rozier and Smart.   

 

C’s look good but not sure they are ready for JJ, Embiid, Simmons, and Super Dario 

Celts should come out physical and hope they can get some of the kids off their game. Smart and Morris need to lead the way this series or it’s toast time.

I heard Jaylen is doubtful with that hammy for game 1

Looking forward to this Celtics v. Sixers series.  Conventional wisdom says Celtics and their injuries won't give them a chance against the hot upstart Sixers, but day-um, these Celtics haven't lost a beat.  Could be a really fun series.  Hoping the Sixers can continue their play of the last month + but this is playoffs and you can throw everything out the window.  Trust the Phantom of The Process

That was a beat down...yikes

The Sixers team defense is heavily correlated with their 3 point shooting. The more 3's they miss, the more open 3's they allow. 

 

Strongly need to consider adjusting the defensive assignments. Have to put a defender (Covington) on Tatum.

Raptors are kings of the regular season

 

Vince, then Bosh, now DeRozan.... just not hard enough to deliver in playoff conditions, very talented players though.

 

Oak came to town and was just as likely to kick Vince’s behind as he was to come to his rescue, the only time the team got anywhere.

I didn’t see the game, I chose hockey instead but from looking at the numbers the Raptors went ice cold in the 4th and still had a chance to win. I think that is a good sign going forward? Cavs just don’t have enough.

In the last minutes Lowry panicked and just stood there and called time out with 3 on the clock, then couldn’t inbound the ball in five seconds.

 

totally unforgivable.

 

And everyone knows LeBron is their Daddy

 

houston or GST would massacre both these teams in four

 

Down one with plenty of time they opt to go with a 3 instead of a simple play that would have given a bunny of a shot for the win.

No reason Embiid shouldn't just bang down low repeatedly until he is too tired to continue. Rest, rinse, repeat. They have no real options but to throw bodies at him and try to force turnovers.

That was just so sad, they didn’t even try to compete right from the start of the third quarter....

Fultz > Tatum gonna cost Philly a finals appearance. 

 

Saw nothing from Saric/Bellinelli 

 

Raptors need to burn that court down.    Place is cursed.   

Have to feel bad for the big man so far. He is doing work out there.

It was so much fun with Lowry and DeRozan pounding their chests and giving primal yells beating the living bag out of the Nets/Knicks/Pistons/Bulls when they were tanking

 

the trouble is Toronto fans see no nuance in sports and act like every pitch, shift, jump shot is as intense as a hockey fight

 

the announcers SCrEaM in triumph over every strike call or icing call or bunny made no matter how inconsequential 

 

worst is baseball where the TV clown calls every can of corn like “the Giants have won the pennant!!!!!”

Advice for Philly, don’t draft guys with no J, Markelle Fultz? All those letters no J. Ben Simmons? Still no J.

 

Jaylen Brown. Jayson Tatum. 

 

In all seriousness Philly will be fine when they ink Lebron after the season.

Ainge trading down and getting Tatum and an additional 1st rd pick instead of taking Fultz>>>>

Celts are 6.5 point dogs tonight, they have been underdogs for the first 3 games. Can anyone think of a time where a team was an underdog for each game and swept the favorite? 

 

I’m sure it has happened, they are asking on the radio and I can’t come up with an answer.
