Said it again, and I'll say it again.

I'm not scared of the 76ers. Their starting five is amazing, don't get me wrong. But Butler, and Embiid are going to be players that will demand touches.

Plus their bench is pretty awful.

So much better. Hayward could really be our secret weapon in the playoffs if he can build off this

Barely grinded it out in a hostile environment without Irving, while Tobias Harris played his worst game as a 76ers.

But, if we get this Hayward's performance on top of Horford's production with the addition of Irving for the postseason then I like our chances against Philadelphia. That is our true Big 3.

Proves when they want to put the effort in they can go far. It’s up to these players now how this season is going to end. Hopefully this win puts their individual needs on the back burner and they start becoming the team everyone knows they’re capable of.

We can still exploit their small guards just like playoffs last year.

We’re still in a great position.

Posted this in another thread:

Great response after losing two games in disgusting fashion.

Outside of the terrible LA games (that we should have won) we’re 11 for the last 14 with the only other loss a close one against GS. Maybe it isn’t so bad after all...

A little bit, but Philly wasn't who I was worried about anyways.  It is the Bucks and Rapt.

Plus we knew they would play better tonight after those poor efforts the last two games.

I think we win a 1st round series against Philly or Indy.

Boy if Rozier or Smart did even a little better we could have won by 10+

Simmons will get heavily exposed in the playoffs and a healthy Kyrie will cook them IMHO.

Baynes will help a ton too.

Hayward is so important. We just have to hope he's consistent when the playoffs start.

I knew they would play better because Kyrie was out.

The shortcoming with this team is its mentality. When they're locked in, the Celtics are almost unbeatable but there's just too many mental lapses and "relaxing" on court letting teams back in. That's 100% in their control and correctable.

You don’t win games like this if your team hates each other. Less talk more ball should be this years motto. Just need to get to the playoffs healthy.
