Celtics (2-3) at 76ers (3-2) Round 2 Game #6 5/11/23

[blink]

I am good with a 7 point lead after 1 quarter.  Rinse and repeat 3 more times.
This game is already intense, almost like a NBA Finals game.

Long game left, but I'll gladly take that quarter.

Hopefully we can go on a run soon. I do think if we get a big lead (15-20+) PHI will start to falter/panic

[PAOBoston]

Better first quarter than the last few games. Would like the go back to two big lineup for defense purposes. Defense just goes away when they go super small.

[cman88]

Can't complain, playing tough defense and up 7. If Tatum and brown get going soon I think we can take this. They can't be cold forever

[liam]

Go big again

Blake or Grant...I don't care

WE have lots of bigs we can play. Play TIMELORD 40 minutes! It's all or nothing!!!!

Sixers got back in the game with a horrible brown turnover and then an terrible shot by him

[Kernewek]

Some good things - we’re out-rebounding them and assisting more. The hot shooting from deep is probably unsustainable but Tatum’s not going to keep missing all his shots, we hope.

[Dchuck]

We gotta keep pushing it!  If Embiid is in, we tire him out.  If he's out, attack in transition.

[blink]

We need more from Brogdon and White this series

we do, we have been missing their scoring big time....Brogdon rectifying that problem today

[celticinorlando]

Tatum man…need something out of you

[jpotter33]

Why do the Celtics leave every shooter wide open from 3?

Because they keep doubling down on Embiid.  Make him score.  Don't let anyone else catch fire!  Such a dumb strategy

It truly is. We've dominated Philly with that exact philosophy for years, yet for some reason Joe decides to go away from it now.

But the drop coverage on the PnR is even more egregious. They kill us almost every time we do it, yet when we play them tight and make sure to scramble to get back to the guys, they don't take advantage of us.

[CelticSooner]

Everyone bricking in this game except Brogdon and Maxey.

[Phantom255x]

Considering a loss means offseason, or a win = two days off before Game 7, I'd hope they play these guys heavy minutes. Timelord as well.

Lifting weights before every game broke Tatum
