I like the idea of trying to give the team something to get fired up about. More of
"They ain't winning anything till they can win on the road", and "They getting lucky" stuff.

Yup keep telling this team they have no shot because they seem to feed off that disrespect.

I know for a fact Marcus Morris and Al take that shizz personal.
ok fine

I haven't read one story that favors The Celtics this whole post season. Most of the stories after game one were "What's wrong with Philly/". How about what's right with the Celtics? This team is so gritty. Reminds me of that Pistons team that won in o4.

I was thinking of the Pistons team that won in 1989,

Philly should have won in 4.  And now should win in 5.   

Take Philly's top 2 players out along with another starter and rotation big and I’d expect a full-strength Boston team to sweep.

We had 3 guys (Rozier, Horford and Tatum) combine for 83 points.  Not even KG+Pierce+Ray ever accomplished combining for that many points.

As a whole, we shot over 48% from three.

Philly's defense was atrocious.

Redick, Saric, Bellinelli, Covington and Ilyasova are shot above 36% from three this season.

They combined for 3-20 in game 1. 

If we can keep that up, we will keep this series competitive.  Otherwise, Philly can take control of this series in Game 2 by stealing home court.

If we “keep that up, we will keep this series competitive”?.

Dude, we just kicked your team’s arse. If we “keep that up” we will sweep. I don’t think we will (keep that up or sweep) by the way. Just pointing out the disconnect in your words.
if we keep up that level of impossible play, I like our chances of not losing in 5.

We haven't lost a game in this series yet.
If we keep this up, I'm pretty sure we aren't going to get swept.

Here's hoping Toine's predictions are as on-target as his long range shooting.

Remember his "all star" season in 2002-2003? He hit 32% of his 3-point attempts while launching 7.5 per game. 32% was also his career percentage from 3, on 4,264 attempts(!) Pity the backboards.

I doubt Philly will get swept, but I don't think your team is capable of beating the Celtics in 4 out of the next 6 games.

i was saying I’m pretty sure Boston isn’t going to get swept.  Wild guess.

Hope for your sake Antoine you didn't place a bet on this in Vegas. Get out of the gambling or betting career field Antoine "Shaq" Walker.

The 76ers will not recover from last night's loss. I see the Celtics stealing one in Philly and closing it out at home in game 5.

BTW, did anyone see the picture of Ben Simmons' face superimposed on the picture of Wilt Chamberlain holding the 100 sign, but with only the number 1? Absolutely hilarious and pure gold. It was shown during the post game show with Scal, during a social media segment.

Saw it while having a drink and almost had the drink go through my nose. I laughed my butt off.

Haha yeah I posted it here, but it's been circulating everywhere  :P

Was super popular yesterday night lol. Watching Sixers fans replying to the comments was comedy gold. One guy was even like, "it's better he goes 0-4 and stops shooting when it's not going in instead of something like 3-17. WAY TO GO SIMMONS, great team player!"  :laugh: (I legit burst out laughing reading that comment on FB).
