I hope this doesn’t lead to Kyrie bashing

It’s already started

was this so called leader even at the game?

Injured players dont often travel. That's why Baynes want there either. But go off though

Not bashing Kyrie but Baynes was in Cleveland , I didn’t see Kyrie

We play better without him.. He is fun to watch no doubt but he is often injured and team plays better as a team without him..

No, we simply do not. We score more and defend better when he’s playing. The numbers are on the internet for you to find.

You just want them to play better when Kyrie is sitting, so a game like today is something you jump on, but you ignore them letting the Clippers come back from nearly 30 down

I love Kyrie ..but as a Celtic fan I am p---ed he thinks he is bigger than the team.

I thought the Celtics were going to lose when 76ers made that 5-point play.

The Celtics capitalized and regained control quick.

And it's just crazy how many calls Philly got down the stretch. On at least two occasions Butler flopped his way into fouls on three point shots by sticking his leg out. Those are supposed to be offensive fouls now, yet the refs are clearly too incompetent to catch anything like that.

the Cs play so hard against playoff teams but lackluster effort against lottery teams, i wonder if they are just underestimating and cruising against bad teams sometimes....sometimes

[ManUp]

I like point Hayward and engaged Tatum.

Kyrie has to let those guys free lance a bit as well.

Marcus needs Kyrie to defer to Terry didn't have it today.

Is Harris ready for playoff level basketball? I'm not to familiar with his game but was told he was a game changer. He looked very ordinary on both ends.

Did y'all remember the last time the Celtics won on this very arena?

It was the infamous confetti game, Game 3 of the 2018 East Semis Playoffs

Embiid think the Refs sucked

Truly hilarious. Boo hoo. Go push off some defenders and get bounced in 5 in the Playoffs again

I think Harris is just on the same level as Marcus Morris.

He's a good player but I just think the Celts defense shut him down tonight.

We won the turnover battle 6:14.
That's a win right there.

Philly fans think Horford should've been called for a foul on the play down the stretch where Embiid hurled his body into Al. Terrific defense from Al all night.

Harris is definitely better than Morris but as Philly's 4th option, he's never going to get a chance to do the things that make him better. Meanwhile, Morris is probably a better defender. So while Harris is better, in a vacuum, I'd rather have Morris in his role than Harris in his.

Butler kicking his leg out both times was obvious in real time, so I don't know how the refs missed those calls. What really p---ed me off was when Jaylen Brown had JJ Redick pinned in the paint, and Redick then grabbed Jaylen as he was attempting his shot. The refs called the foul on the floor and waved off the made basket. Meanwhile, Philly gets 3 and one calls after that, along with those two Butler leg kick outs on threes.

I have been wanting to see Hayward play the point forward on the second unit for a while now, and I finally saw it last night. Coincidentally, it was probably the best game that I saw him play yet. I also saw zero hesitation on his shot and he looked so natural in his shooting motion. That stroke was beautiful last night.
