Do you still believe

I believe *if* Joe starts Timelord and keeps him in the game.

He has to after game 6 right? The results were phenomenal. The defense was on a totally different level

I still believe in the players

Who knows with Joe.  I think the answer is clear.  I hope his Magic Eight Ball agrees.

Given his bamboozling mental gymnastics, who knows. He might conclude that a lineup of Smart-White-Brown-Tatum-Grant would be good. Unpredictable too

The formula to beat Philly had been established for the last few years. I'd hope even he, as dumb as he is, recognizes the easy answer.on who to start this Sunday

Doc is apparently 6-9 all time in Game 7's. 

I thought we would win tonight in a blowout. Never expected Philly to out-choke us down the stretch, but I feel more confident about Game 7 now, especially after the Timelord move. We just simply have, have, have to get Tatum going earlier.

And we're 7-9 in our last 16 playoff home games.

So advantage Celtics lol

Yes. I now believe. Always felt that if they got game 6 they would win the series. Just didn’t know about game 6.

Yeah unfortunately one of those was the game that shall not be named

I'll lead with the good: Robert Williams—finally! Though I don't know why it took Joe so long. Yeah, the matchup with Embiid is bad, but Rob can (obviously) still contribute plenty, and he did. I know he missed a couple defensive assignments, but most Celtics players made multiple bad plays tonight, so in that respect he's in good company. I also must give credit to the Cs for staying poised in crunch time, because that's something they've really struggled with. And I tip my hat to Brogdon and Smart for some much-needed good shooting and solid overall play.

But let's not get too high just yet. They won, and that's great, but they had more than their fair share of bad play in this one, particularly the 17 turnovers, and they haven't done a good job of defending their home court this postseason. It's one game for all the marbles, and anything can happen, so let's just hope they bring the focus and energy from the start in Game 7.

Is tomorrow going to be the Tatum game we've been waiting for? Is tomorrow just going to be the Tatum game where he doesn't go 0-100 in the first half?

Show up on defense and do your job on offense. That's all they have to do to win. As has been the case for 4 years now, only the Celtics can beat the Celtics.

[cman88]

We just need to play defense like we did last game and need Tatum to show up on the first half.

Hopefully he got the weight off his back last game and he finally has a big first quarter. As much as he deserves credit for winning the last game for us in the end, his struggles are a large reason the sixers are in this.

Thinking Doc will start Niang or Melton over PJ Tucker to slow Timelord down. Wonder how will this play out
