WHAT A COMEBACK BY KEMBA!!

Once again doesn't get the clear foul call on Embiid, but sprints down to the other end anyways and gets the steal from behind on Embiid to initiate the fastbreak! Love having a strong character in the starting point guard spot now.

Oh man that sequence was so awesome.  I love that Embiid expended a ton of energy blocking Kemba and then on the offensive end on the drive, only to have the ball stripped from him.  That dunk from Brown was nasty!

I'll be honest, I give Embiid some credit. He's still out there trying to carry this squad and playing 38+ minutes a night. He knows he has to for them to have a chance. But yikes, Tobias and Horford are barely helping out lol

When the Celtic's starters "get it going" everybody has eyes in the backs of their heads and it's usually Smart right in the middle of it.

Trying very hard to imagine Kyrie doing something like that, lol

I'd say they should trade him, but who would actually want either of them?

Would have to offload Simmons or Embiid alongside one of Tobi/Al for anyone to bite

Embiid short on two shots and already walking up the floor.  I hope he's already completely exhausted.
you could literally see this in the first quarter.

This 76ers team has given up already.
