    Honestly it's probably more wise that he's taking more mid range jumpers than trying to hit tough layups. Hes shooting petty low percentage at the rim

    You know the rules.

    Harden sucks and team wins? Bum has to be carried to ever win anything! Game counts
    Harden sucks and team loses? Game absolutely counts. Double or triple actually.
    Harden plays great and team loses? HAH! Did all that just to lose! Can’t win with him! Loser! Game counts
    Harden plays great and team wins? Just one game….game 1…doesn’t even really count….

    If you were the Celtics, you had to be thinking, no Embiid, no problem.
    Boston, there is a problem.

    This maybe the biggest upset of the playoffs for me.
    I am a huge critic of Harden, but I tip my hat to what he did in game 1.
    He is going to have to keep doing it every game for Philly to win the series and that might not be possible.

    So proud of Harden RN.

    I was ready to write Philly off when I heard Embiid has a grade 2 sprain. But if Philadelphia can steal one of the next couple games without him maybe they do have a chance to get him back in time and win the series.

    Harden’s not here to win 1 game, he’s here for 2…Harden’s greedy

    not even gonna lie, I thought he was gonna drop 21 points on 7-18 shooting and the Sixers would get their ass beat…seems like Harden went to Vegas before this series to get his body an oil change

    BTW, the Illuminati was established on May 1, 1776. :confused: So yesterday was the Illuminati's 247th birthday and the Sixers won their 247th playoff game. :confused: x 76 pyramid x 76

    I still don't think Embiid even plays game 3 by the way. Maybe I'll be wrong there. But I think if Philly somehow pulls this off it's going to take at least 6 games, probably 7, and they don't get Embiid back until at least game 4.
