76ers (34-18) at Celtics (38-16) Game #55 2/8/22

We're at least hitting our threes, and they've all been good looks that weren't forced but off good ball and player movement.

But Joe is going to have to figure something out to get the Jays some easier looks to get them going. We're not going to keep it close with them having five total shots and only one make per quarter between them.

The Sixers can't be feeling encouraged that the C's are missing 3 main guys, Embiid has 14, the Jays are playing poorly but they are only up 1 currently

Unreal horrible phantom call.  Jt gets fouled by embiid nothing.  Grant farts next to embiid and there's a foul.

to be fair, that fart had a foul smell. 

Hilarious!  Deserves a TP.

TP for appreciating good fart humor.  always a classic

[jpotter33]

That is some inexcusable transition D.

[Phantom255x]

LEAD!

[slamtheking]

Brogdon needs to teach Tatum how to draw foul calls on his drives.  Brogdon can usually get the call whereas Tatum basically has to be bleeding profusely for a call

[SCeltic34]

Just got home from work.  Both Horford and Timelord are out?  Will be impressive if we can still pull off a win.

[Silas]

Looks like Grant will be playing huge minutes tonight...40+

[celticinorlando]

Finally stopped turning it over

[slamtheking]

I'll gladly take a 3 point lead after one quarter with the J's contributing little

Tatum legit gets hacked, the refs just swallow their whistles. Not sure he can do much more to draw calls.

[Phantom255x]

Even with Horford/Timelord out, if the Jays can start cooking then they can easily beat PHI

[Phantom255x]

Missing 3 starters, Embiid was a beast, Jays were bad, and yet the C's are somehow up 3

That doesn't bode well for PHI. I'd like to think the Jays get hot soon. Embiid also probably isn't gonna play 42+ minutes tonight so need to take advantage of the period he sits

[jambr380]

Credit to the Cs for holding a lead after the 1st so short handed, but can’t say I am especially confident in this one. I just want to see the Cs continue to play hard and smart

[slamtheking]

beautiful play by Jaylen and Kornet
