Pressure on Boston in this one.  Let's see how they respond.

Seems there is always pressure on the Celtics...

It's a must-win game. Lose and the season is pretty much over for the C's. Can't see how they recover being down 2-1 with Embiid in all likelihood returning for Game 4

So let me get this straight...you said Celtics in 6 (meaning Philly would win 2, assuming my math is right) in Phantom's prediction thread but they lose this one and the season's over? And didn't you say we would split the home games?

Celtics in 6. A team not to be underestimated led by Nick Nurse. Gonna split the home games and close them out in Philly.

So we shouldn't underestimate the Sixers, but it's all over if we lose the 2nd game which your Celtics in 6 prediction suggests we would...You are indeed the Master of Panic, Sparz 

It's how they lose in one of the first two games and that it is a must that they win Game 3. The effects are different being down 2-1 entering Game 4, putting all pressure on Boston. If up 2-1 then it's more likely they drop that Game 4 but expecting to win the next two.

Just have a gut feeling White has heard the noise and will go off tonight, nothing extraordinary but probably hitting 4 or 5 threes and scoring 22+ points with a good-all around performance on both ends.

Would also be nice if PHI cools down with the shooting. Some of it was our weird defense and the stupid drop coverage plan, but PHI shot 19-39 from 3 and 48% overall. Truly would be shocked if they could repeat that especially from 3.

So now the game is on Amazon Prime Video...they really want to make it hard for us to find these first round games. Thankfully I have Prime Video.

Really dislike this streaming thing.  But fortunately I have Prime.

I?ve never done it, but tonight I?ll give it a try via Prime.

My experience with it is if I stream on the TV it?s a pain - takes 5 minutes to get going and then if you want flip channels you have to go out and start over to come back. Plus it sometimes stops and buffers.  It?s smoother on my laptop though I prefer watching on the TV.  Hopefully it?s only this game.


You and I grew up when there was ABC, NBC, and CBS.  Wasn?t complicated. I remember when we finally got a TV that could get UHF.  Some Celtics on 25 and Bruins on 38.  Not all Cs game were on TV. But we had Johnny.

it's better than Peacock.  with Prime you can watch from the beginning and fast forward through commercials.  Peacock only allows you to watch the game live -- no way to watch the beginning if you join late.  hate it with a passion

Thanks for that - it?s good to know. I?ll be tuning in a little late, didn?t know I could watch from the beginning.
