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

I think this team might have a Marcus Smart problem.

White and Brogdon are better, but also Smart seems to act like he’s the 3rd best guy on the team. The 3rd piece of the “Big 3” with Tatum and Brown, hence he often plays more minutes and in crunch time over the other two (White and Brogdon).

And make no mistake, but he’s regressed big time for his DPOY caliber play last season. He’s making more loser plays and decisions than winning nowadays

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..

omg

i am taking sixers moneyline now

Sixers moneyline is +102. I might take that bet too.

Three players showed up = Smart, Tatum & Jaylen. I don't think any of the 3 played all that well but at least they showed up.

Complete no shows = Horford, Brogdon, D White.

That’s on the idiot coach to make that adjustment.

Yeah but then I wonder if Smart would throw a fit about that

If the C’s lose this round which seems likely, I think they need to package Smart, Pritchard, Muscala and picks to get back another big man. Especially with Horford turning 37 and Timelord being hurt all the time. White, Brogdon and another guard they sign or draft can work just fine in the meantime

But they have to change something if they lose this round. Can’t keep it status quo

There are moments when I agree with this take, but then there are nights like tonight when Brogdon can't stay in front of Maxey or Harden and Derrick White forgets how to shoot and you know at least Marcus is going to give you some hustle. And he was at least aggressive at getting to the free throw line (he was a quiet 8/10 from the line)

PHI shot 50.6% from the field, 40% from three and 85% from the foul line. They had only 9 turnovers.

What is that? A 63% TS%?

Yes. Smart was far and away the best of the 3 of them.

D White and Brogdon were really poor today.

Worst part about this is I seriously think Joel embiid sucks and the 76ers are average at best.
Celtics in 7 or go heat
If you think embiid sucks I want whatever you’re smoking.
Really?  He probably thinks Granny Clampett is a stone-cold fox.
