76ers (2-2) at Celtics (2-2) Round 2 Game #5 5/9/23

7-9 at home in the playoffs in their last 16 games

That is flat out pathetic

The Bruins and Celtics this year in the postseason are a combined 4-6 at TD Garden. And it’s 1-6 in their last 7 games. That’s insane

Thankfully my sis and I went to a win (Game 2 vs ATL) but otherwise it’s not been fun for the fans going to most of these playoff games this Spring 

[Who]

Very disappointed with the team's effort today.

More disappointed by the lack of fight the team showed after going down double digits in Q2 and particularly in the Q3 than their slow start. I don't like seeing the team give up. I felt they gave up today.

They took a punch to stomach, got winded and then quit.

Hurts my confidence in their ability to fight back in Gm 6. If PHI get a good start, this team could fold totally. They remind me of MIL towards the end of that MIA series in round one.

[Who]

Tatum = 36pts on 27 FGAs 13 FTAs 2 TO
Jaylen = 24pts on 16 FGAs 8 FTs 3 TO

Tatum = 36pts on 35 possessions
Jaylen = 24pts on 23 possessions

About the same scoring efficiency.

These guys are done. They don't have the passion to fight out of a wet paper bag.

Team is soft. Just a reflection of their coach

As much as I dislike Joe as a coach, the team in general is soft.  They didn't play with any toughness, urgency, effort or heart.  That's what really bothers me most.  They're not a smart team, but they can always play with effort.

Somehow the Celtics are -1.5 spread and -118 moneyline favorites for game 6. They dropped from 1st at +165 to 4th in winning Finals odds. Sixers are now first at +280, Denver +340, Lakers +370 and Celtics +430..

[celticinorlando]

Don’t think this team likes one another. Think they are upset that Ime was fired. Don’t respect Joe.
