    True but we're 1-1 in Super Bowls...just can't find a GIF of that Rodney interception on McNabb lol.

    GIF hurts though. Poor Tom.

    Brad Stevens maybe the best coach of all time. Don't think the 3 point discrepancy in game 1 will continue but d--- that was an impressive win without Jaylen.

    Dont wanna overreact because you could say with absolute confidence the Sixers are not gonna s---t that poorly again. Embiid was our best 3pt shooter among with every other aspect of the game last night.

    But that was the ideal away game to take away from the Celtics.

    I guess we are rusty from the rest but that doesnt excuse the defence.

    In all seriousness, Rozier is a monster. What a steal for the Celtics. I still think the Sixers will get this in 6. A little rusty last night and we couldn’t s---t for s---. Brad Stevens is a basketball genius. Simmons is obviously a rookie though. Trust* The Process.

    Oh I def think Sixers take this series. But I also agree about Rozier. Dude is a f---ing baller.

    It's just frustrating because I honestly think at full health we'd be in the Finals with a great shot to be champions.

    Sixers and Celtics are going to be the big rivalry for years though. I think Celtics at full health are ahead of Sixers (mainly experience), but I think the two injuries even it out.

    Next year will be the real rivalry though. Sixers will be more gelled/experienced and Celtics healthy. It'll be fun.

    It's just crazy to think their 2 best players, plus a top 4 player on their team is out, and they somehow have a 1-0 lead in the second round.

    Most teams can't afford to lose their top player, let alone what Celtics have lost. I don't get it

    Actually, the Celtics injuries don't "even it out"... I meant that it tips to the Sixers favor.

    But man, Stevens and Ainge are f---ing geniuses.

    Will be tough to manage everyone's minutes next year, especially if you guys keep Smart. Almost an embarrassment of riches at this point. Kyrie, Terry, Jaylen, Smart, Hayward, Tatum, Horford, Semi, plus whatever rookies come in.

    Yeah I’m sorry but after watching most of the 1st half I have no clue why the raptors seem to be the somewhat overwhelming favorites in this series.

    Same old playoff raptors, same old playoff Bron. I know how this one ends, it’ll be ‘close’ and a ‘battle’ but then ya know... cavs advance.

    Whoever comes out the east, probably Cleveland will get destroyed in the finals though imo, 4 or 5 games.

    f---ing Bucks are soft. Khris Middleton was a f---ing beast. Need a HC that is going to run more plays through him. Bucks lost that series due to

    Brad Stevens
    No interior rebounding throughout the series, 1 Celtic would get the rebound between 3 or 4 Bucks.
    Prunty is awful
    No toughness.

    Lmao yea off to a great start. Typical late game play from them.

    ‘As good a chance as any team’ I assume you mean eastern conference only.

    s--- final play from TOR who had enough time to go for a shot and foul if they miss, without giving cleveland too much time. Never try to set up plays around a “buzzer beater”
