Tatum has 34 points, but on 26 shots and with the aid of 11 FTs. The stats make it look better than it is. And that's not even including the no-show in the 1st quarter when PHI gained steam

He deserves his share of blame for the slow starts, but it's going to be compounded by our 3 guards going 7/22 and Al going 0/7.

Good news is this about the best the sixers can play and its about the worst the Celtics can play.

Oh my God, Brown. This is inexcusable. You're 3-8 for FREE throws.

  • Sometimes there's no sane reason for optimism
I turned off the TV in hopes of changing our bad fortune.  I guess it didn’t work.  Lol
It will be hard to watch Game 6

It's like last year's Finals. You have to watch since you've watched all season, but you just know it isn't going to end well.

  • GOT IT!!!
I expect this team to show up for Game 6 regardless. They might lose but this what they do. Sooner or later it will get them but I just want to see if Philly can actually finish it. Something tells me they can’t.

i’m not being disrespectful but after what we’ve seen from this team all season, what makes you think they’ll show up for game six?

They’ve done it all season after bad losses.

it’s game five at home, the game larry said typically decides the series winner, and they’re a complete no-show. this isn’t a bad loss; this team quit tonight. they get steamrolled in game six.

Guess we’ll see. Just need cold Harden again.

Thursday, 7:30 PM, ESPN. So sadly it's likely Doris Burke again

Good for the Sixers, they deserve this series. The Celtics keep playing like a bunch of guys who got paid, got their personal accolades and are just going through the motions. They say the right things but they just don't really care.

We need to play more guys but next game I'm sure we'll play less.
Ah yes, I'm sure Mike Muscala would have made the difference in the defensive mess that was today.

It at least would've shown an attempt at an adjustment. Literally the only thing we've seen thus far is - checks notes - five minutes of Pritchard.

Joe is so incompetent and over his head that he literally has decision paralysis. It's so clear to see.

He should've come with Hauser, PP and Muscala way sooner and just spread the foor. Game was over at the half.

Don’t overestimate the Celtics. I believe they are capable of playing worse
