[EC First Round] (3)Boston vs. (6)Philadelphia

ben simoleons finna set new playoffs 3pt record.

4-0 fillie

 

Isn't he going to be out all series?

Celtics probably win this easily. Maybe leads to a Philly offseason blow up. Who knows with Elton Brand as the GM.

 

Tough one, Simmons out for the post-season and Celtics on a roll, but Sixers are no pushovers. Celtics in 6.

 

Embiid and Tobias needs to have a monster series. And the role players have to step up for Philly to have a chance.

I think they can do it, but I’m still predicting Celtics in 6.

 

The ball should go into Embiid in the post at least once, every single possession. Come on, Brett Brown.

 

Still don't get why Embiid isn't destroying people in the post.

They threw big money at Horford so that he left Boston. This removed the biggest Embiid stopper amongst their EC rivals.

And look who they're playing in the first round this year. Literally no one on that team (poor Theis) can stop him in the post, but they don't utilize that strength.

 

Jaylen Brown acts his way into a flagrant on Horford, and Doris even says it was flagrant because of the way he sold it. Just about full WWE now

 

Philadelphia are some losers. Lol it’s so funny watching embiid talk **** year after year and get stomped in every game that counts.

 

watch a bit of this game tatum and brown are almost as good as harden and westbrook. Boston gonna give raptors problems in the next round but wont get past them.

 

Anyone think Philly gets swept? They have no dept with Simmons out.

 

Signing Horford was probably the biggest mistake Philly has made in the past X years.

Imagine all that money going into keeping Redick + signing bench pieces. Doesn't help that Simmons is out.

 

That whole team just seems like a weird/terrible assembly. Pair that with bad coaching and its all downhill. Hinkie set them up and Brand tore it all down.

 

Sixers went from an exciting upcoming team only a few years ago to this trash heap rather quickly. Fire the GM and start over again. Simmons and Embiid are still young enough for a full reset.

 

Imagine paying Tobias Harris all that money to be one of your stars. Terrible decision

 

Whew they had so much potential..

 

And Clutchfans haters, whiners, and crybabies were calling Chris Paul the worst contract in the NBA. Imagine CP3 on the Sixers right now. That would solve a ton of their problems. Harris and Horford’s contracts have sunk The Process.

 

Embiid gets a ton of criticism but he literally has to empty His tank every game for them to do well. They need actual guard play in a guard’s league To be able to go far in the playoffs.

 

Elton Brand ****ed that team over in so many ways. They were idiots for firing Sam Hinkie.
