76ers (12-6) at Celtics (14-4) Game #19 12/1/23

[Silas]

TPs for a hard fought game.

Come on, JB. Use your head. Why are you fouling here?

said the same thing. jb continues to solidify his low bbiq rep.

Refs seem pretty happy to give us the game here in the end....questionable calls all going our way

Uh, what questionable calls? Jrue was clearly whacked? That was a clear charge on Covington. The Bev one was 50/50, but Bev absolutely hit him first.

Agreed on Jrue hack. The charge was...a no call really. One of tbose pull the chair out ref has to call it. Seen it go the other way before. The Brown thing cojlda been offensive, def seen that go both ways. Feel like there was anothwr in there...? Non goal tending call....was earlier?

Jrue had position.  Easy call

Beverly fouled brown before brown even made contact on the bev flop.  Another easy call

[ozgod]

I have to re-watch the first three and a half quarters that I missed but looks like we had one bad quarter but we outscored them the rest of the way at least



We shot 50%/48% from overall and 3 but had 20 turnovers, probably a reason for some of the comments when I checked in during dinner...I thought we were going to lose by 20

A win is a win but the Cs were absolutely trash tonight. Just an abysmal performance. Would have gotten wrecked if Maxey played.

Well, not necessarily.

That's the thing about these games. When you have so many guys out on the other team, it's almost expected that the healthy team will have at least some level of a letdown. With Maxey in there, it's no guarantee that they take the game so lightly. Just how it goes.

Remember, they had a similar letdown a few weeks ago against us when they were largely healthy and at home and we were missing KP and Brown.

I was thinking the same thing but maybe Joe instructed to foul instead of allowing a three point attempt? That’s the only reason I can think of, and it really doesn’t even make much sense since there wasn’t much time left.

[Silas]

Nice 10 min from Queta...5pts, 5rebs +3
Terrible 8 min from Kornet...0pts, 1reb.  -9

[hpantazo]

Ugly game, but a win is a win. Still undefeated at home. TPs everyone !

[ozgod]

So I watched Tatum's ejection on an ESPN short video - I still don't get why he was ejected. For arguing a call? It didn't look like he even hit Covington, Covington looked like he should have been Td up for flopping.

I'm no expert, just didn't think they were slam dunk calls. They went our way but I think the Sixers kinda imploded and the moment got to big forthem.....just seemed the refs were kinda happy to guide that a bit

that’s a fair point. it just looked like a lazy foul by jb who wasn’t moving his feet on D, got beat, and attempted the lazy pick from behind.

Why even subject yourself to that? It's not worth it, unless you have low blood pressure and need a kickstart to it.

LOL it must have been really bad 

I'm kind of a masochist when the Cs don't play well...I like trying to see why. Knowing the result will probably make it less stressful

yea i was within earshot, the refs told him to stop and then they told our coaches to get him away from arguing, we didn’t act soon enough in the refs opinion so the next word out of tatums mouth got him ejected
