Intense game. Embiid is an incredible player. Hope he stays healthy for a long career as he is a shoo-in for the HOF if he does. Game could have gone either way. No real big leads, just close the whole way.Both teams played like it was a game 7. Sixers because it was an elimination game. Celts because they could see the writing on the wall. Lose this one, then back to Philly where they have had trouble winning on the road in the playoffs. Then game 7 where anything can happen (like we just saw in 5).Cleveland next. Actually a reasonably good match-up for the Celtics considering, except for that pesky LeBron guy. It really is all him. Unfortunately the Celtics aren't any more healthy. I did notice Jaylen Brown walking gingerly off the court in the 4th. I suspect he would be the first guy tasked with guarding LeBron. Wondered why the announcers didn't say anything.Actually in the grand scheme of things, still is Golden State's to lose.--buzz
More [most] importantly: did LeBron watch the Sixers last night and say "Yeah. I could play with these guys" or "Nope. Nothing there for me. Pass"
His shoulder is fine, but he's shooting problems are still in his headWe need to get Fultz the same kind of mental training that Nelson Agholor received
Where Zig?Are you ready?
Oh, I was ready. But tired. So I watched the highlights next day.I’m a serious casual fan.Hoping they can give the LeBronatics a run for their money, or at least a 5-game series.My husband is convinced he’s seen Brad Stevens driving around in this general area. I think he’s mistaken, but C’s players do often live in the nice burbs around here...
I like how LeBron turns around with a look at the officials every time he doesn’t get a basket.
Put a diaper on that crybaby.So far, holding it down, are the C's.
I been cookin dinner. Looks like the Brons have tightened it up!
The Brons better hope they win the next game.
Stick a fork in em this game.
This team is the hoops equivalent of the Eagles, they almost seem better without Kyrie.
I see where you might think that, but as I watched many Celtics games this year Kyrie surprised me with his ability to see the court , and make what I would call the correct "basketball play". Sure there was a times where he would take over a game, but generally it would be the right thing to do. Don't know if it's playing under Stevens or not playing with LeBron. He seems happier running his own show. --buzz
LeBron wasn't the same once he got a concussion. Of course LeBron doesn't get concussions he just gets fouled a lot. At least that's what he would tell you, or cry about. --buzz
He is a great player though. Celts beat Xleveland and he's much more likely to go to Los Angeles or Philly.
