Celtics (35-21) at Sixers (36-20) Game #57 2/12/19

STUPID shot Jaylen.  HOLD THE BALL.  FINAL SHOT.

His offensive IQ sucks. He's been shooting better over the last month, but this fact hasn't changed at all

I disagree.  I WANT Jaylen taking it to the hoop.  He has the advantage in transition, go to the rim.
Embiid with the other worldly block.  It happens.

I'd agree if there hadn't been a player ahead of him on the break, or if we had the last shot in our pocket had he not forced the break.

I don't think he had a passing angle, but he had a path to the rim.  I think if he scores everyone here is like, great play.  But it was the right decision, Embiid just made a great play.

JB is a taller, less explosive (more finesse) Westbrook. Stevens is just trying to wean the bonehead out of him.

That's about as good a look as you are gonna get. I mean Embiid had to goaltend to keep it from going in, so ya. Take that opportunity 100/100 and hope the refs make the right call next time.

Oh yes. I didn't mean this in a disparaging way.

Jaylen needs to drive. Against mismatches especially. That's where he's at his best.

[Ogaju]

why are they letting Simmons get in that deep

[PAOBoston]

Shocking. A decent timeout by Stevens.

[SCeltic34]

wow, nice bucket by Brown

How he didn't get a foul call is beyond me.  Embiid made significant body contact on that.

[ozgod]

I will live with Embiid shooting from 3

[blink]

AND ONE JAYLEN

yeah with that much contact it has to be a foul on someone!!!

[cltc5]

Sit down embid you pothead

[10610786d]

if I was Embiid's coach, I would tell him to stop jacking the 3's.  He is so dominating if he stays on the block.  I don't understand why they play the way they do.

Not watching, but maybe because they got Butler

Don't jinx it!

[slamtheking]

The game plan to go at McConnel and Redick is  a good one!

yup, basic offensive scheme that's very effective but Brad never uses it

[SCeltic34]

If only Smart and Rozier were making their open shots.  Because they've had a ton of them this game.

Jaylen gets no calls and he drives a lot!

because we never get foul calls on our drives

If Hayward really has turned the corner this will be a different team come playoff time. We didn’t make a significant move like the other elite East teams but a healthy Hayward is on par.

I will live with Embiid shooting from 3

Embiid shooting better than Smart from the 3
