Celtics (2-0) at 76ers (0-2) Round 1 Game 3 8/21/20

[Vox_Populi]

Probably one of the best wins all season honestly. Refs were really bad. Tatum early foul trouble. Team was struggling to buy a three. Embiid was killing them inside. Found a way. Can't even complain about how ugly it was.

Fantastic defense by the C's in the last few minutes, classic Celtics ball right there!

Round of TPs on me, that’s how you close out a game!

Wow - can't believe we won this one. Way to go guys!!

Smart just ran straight at Embiid....5 fouls.

He's our only guy who has the balls to do it.  Everybody else avoids him.  Smart has zero fear.

6 points for $28 million Horford.  I'm enjoying the pain of 76ers fans.

[Neurotic Guy]

6-19 from Tatum, 6-16 from Brown, and we still won.

Ugly game, but a gutsy win. 

Thirteen more.

Pretty amazing 12-35 for Jays and no GH.

Not just zero fear, Smart hates Embiid.

Celtics are doing what they're supposed to do...putting a weaker team away.

[BringToughnessBack]

How about them Celtics?!!! I said 4-0 and we are one away from a sweep! Loving it, even if it is summer time!

Stan Van Gundy’s constant cheerleading for the 76ers tonight has been making my ear bleed.

It's truly hilarious. Every time there's a contentious call he would call it as Philly's way.

He must be so sad knowing his team is on the brink of being swept

[tstorey_97]

Well done lads!

On to game the next!

Not just zero fear, Smart hates Embiid.

And unlike us, he can do something about it!

Yessir! Good win!

Jaylen Brown is 20/21 on free throws so far this series. He didn't shoot well, only 6/16, but he played very well. 42 minutes played, real gritty performance.

Tatum had a couple nice defensive plays. Foul trouble really knocked him out of rythm.

Kemba was good.

The 76ers shot shot 10 more free throws than the c's, had 20 offensive rebounds vs 3 for the c's, had Tatum in foul trouble, and had the celtics shoot 8/31 from three and still couldn't win the game.
