    B-Ball Paul is a +12 tonight. Winning the Embid sitting minutes is huge for Phili

    I really do not remember saying Reggie Bullocks hair was nice. Maybe the fade or the line-up?

    stop putting that on me!!

    Van Vleet played the entire 1st half

    6-18 from the field, 4-12 from 3 with his shot getting more and more flat as the half went on

    Raptors just your typical try-hard regular season team…they look completely outmatched

    Why were so many people picking the Raptors to win this series? Is that what the “analytics” were pointing too?

    So did people let the last regular season matchup convince them that Toronto had a chance? Seems like it at least

    I honestly thought Nurse was going to coach circles around the Doc. Plus Harden was looking god awful to end the year but has been playing well so far in the playoffs

    Raptors: Team and Siakam looked really solid to end the season, Barnes was a great rookie, Nurse a great head coach, etc.

    76ers: Harden looked washed, Maxey and Tobi was a question mark, too hard for Embiid to carry, Thybulle can't enter Canada, etc.

    not just a chance…a ton of people were thinking they’d actually win

    this was universally viewed as the series with the biggest upset potential

    I was listening to Locked on Raptors, and they were so confident the Raptors were gonna win in 6…it was unreal
