Brown playing like a spaz on offense again.
His tendency to go from a move that is reminiscent of Jordan to a move that is reminiscent of Marshon Brooks in the space of two plays is so weird.

Growing pains....

I don’t like having Gordon and Al on the bench at the same time, no real distributors out there, offense looks awful

That's the problem I've been saying all season. Brad needs to fix his rotations so there's always 1 or 2 starters (or hot hands) out there with the 2nd unit to help balance the scoring/defense. Many moments to pull away but having a sluggish lineup out there usually kills that possibility  ::)

Even PHI tends to do this having one of Embiid/Butler/Harris out there for stretches with the bench unit and rotating until the 4th when all the starters come back in.

Awful play from all of our guards so far.  Could have used Kyrie.

Should be a tight game throughout. Celts D usually gives Philly fits.

Stevens rotations are bite size tonight.Five minutes six minutes.

High speed switcheroo.
Feels like he’s playing a short rotation tonight.

The absence of Kyrie and Baynes is showing tonight but I love that we're still showing fight.

Pretty much. He’s back to his norm.

Better ball movement that last possession they created an open shot

Less so on this Tatum fade-away
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

I get he thinks he can take Simmons 1-on-1 but, boy, was that a bad possession.

Tatum needs to keep going to the rim
