76ers (31-18) at Celtics (32-15) Game $48 2/1/20

[blink]

what a great win tonight.  C's were locked in on def from the start and weren't afraid to attack the rim Embiid or not.
I hate the 76'ers, so this is the best case scenario.

Keep it up C's!!!

Brown was 1/10 from 3 and yet was still incredible this game. 12/13 from two will do that.

Hayward was 1-11 from the field tonight and we still won comfortably. Goes to show the value of multiple players who can score 20+ on any given night.

exactly.   exhibit A why shipping one of them out just to get a bench big would hurt more than help this team

So Embiid who was going to destroy us and we needed Drummond to save us from him ended up with 11 pts on 1-11 and a -25 for the game.

The thing I like most about this year after both Jays proving that they are stars, is that Daniel Theis has proven that what we saw in him in Year 1 was the truth.  Last year post injury he never got it going -- made me (and others I'm sure) wonder if he was going to be a player.  Daniel Theis is a solid nightly NBA contributor.   And I think Grant Williams is too.

not just that, but Semi is coming around too.  looking good the past few games and not just on defense

I suspect if we had Drummond, Embiid would have lit him up.

Sixers starting to remind me last years C’s. Embiid does not look happy at all.

That was a beat down. Great win

Embiid always lights up Drummond, whether in game or Social Media. He's in his head.

If you are gonna ask me, Baynes will help us more than Drummond.

Personally I'm glad that Brad has gone with a short rotation in recent games.  He's also been quick to call a timeout after the other team goes on a run, such as a 6-0 or 8-0 run.  He did neither of these things last season.  It's a refreshing change.  And our 3 bench players deserve a lot of praise for their recent play.

Yeah he has gone short rotation vs playoff teams.

Hear, hear!!! Since they started playing better 7 games or so ago, Grant Williams, Semi and Wanamaker have been outstanding, for the most part, giving this team exactly what it needs when sone of the starters are resting.

As Ive said earlier in this thread Semi's motor is miles ahead of where it was his first 2 years in the league. He used be useless on anything other than on ball defense and lacks hustle.
