You see Joe? Doc Rivers know how to call a timeout to stop our run. Why can't you?

[BringToughnessBack]

Time to roll. We coast on D until we dont. Need to tighten up a bit on that.

[Silas]

Joe....letting them learn from their mistakes.  What a mistake.

[Phantom255x]

And Rivers takes the intelligent timeout. Of course.

Mazzulla would have waited for the 4-point deficit to become 14 

[CelticSooner]

Why does it seem like a guy cannot miss when they play Boston?

The downside of being the hunted instead of the hunter. The defensive intensity is no where to be found though

[jpotter33]

Beyond the Sixers playing free and focused tonight, I do think without Embiid they play a much different style that it's harder for us to guard. They play a much more free flowing, motion-type offense with lots of movement (player and ball) and Harden and Maxey as the main ballhandlers who can both pass but also score in iso themselves. By being so Joel focused that makes them a bit easier to defend for us, as there's much less ball and player movement.

On the flip side, they already had no chance of stopping our wings, but that's exacerbated without Joel's big body in the middle. Some give and take there.

[blink]

we need Jaylen to assert himself the rest of the game....
I don't know why he only has 8 shots total when he was basically unstoppable in the 1st quarter?
Has he even had a shot in the 2nd half?  1?

Somebody used to have a signature that said “outcoaching Doc Rivers. So easy a caveman could do it.”

I think that sig line needs an adjustment.

[Phantom255x]

Need one more run to put them away

[Phantom255x]

Harden is out of shape but can make do thanks to the refs 

[celticinorlando]

Here comes harden shooting a lot of FT this quarter with his bs antics

[SCeltic34]

What a shot by JB

[jpotter33]

That's a generous whistle. Looked like a White travel.

Actually on second look Maxey clearly pulled him.

You let a team hang around you deserve to pay for the consequences.
