[Highlight] The Celtics fans chant again “WE WANT BOSTON” in Philadelphia, and again during a free throw by Jayson Tatum.
Never seen anything as humiliating as this and the confetti game
I know we have not seen it, but the Lakers in game seven against the Boston Celtics in 1969 handed out pamphlets declaring their victory and had a ton of balloons to celebrate their game seven victory against the Celtics, won the game 108-106. Balloons never left the ceiling
Bill russell confronted the laker’s owner before the game to tell him “ those balloons are fucking staying up there”
the goat
Lmao I forgot about the confetti game.
Which one is that game?
2018 game 3 i think. It went to OT
City of Little Brotherly Humiliation
I’ll say it again; Philly’s arena is just Boston’s cheap seats.
How is this embarrassing?
Did people really take that chant seriously?
Sixer fans had spent weeks about trying to match up against Detroit. That chant only started when it became inevitable.
And I don’t think any honest Sixer fan ever thought they had any chance in this series.
Outside of typical Sixer hate, what are we doing here?
Hating on the Sixers. It’s fun :)
Fair enough
Just a bit of banter mate.
You’re lucky enough not to watch Brooklyn Nets home games.
It’s like people come just a cheer for the opposing team.
This really has been a “come get your spanking” type rivalry. Can we really call it a rivalry though? Aren’t those usually two sided?
Omg I forgot about that lol
GoD fOrBiD fAnS gEt ExCiTeD aBoUt ThEiR tEaM
Correct, that’s also why Boston fans are chanting this back
It was always a foolish thing for Philly fans to say given how badly Boston has kicked their ass in the playoffs. It would have been fine if it had been literally any other team. Just a complete lack of feel lol
Well they said it about their next matchup, it’d be odd to chant “WE WANT TORONTO”
Could say nothing tho
I cannot believe that anyone took that seriously. Sixer fans wanted Detroit until Boston became inevitable. Then that chant was like, **** it, it’s happening so we might as well.
No you’re 100% right I feel gaslit. Like multiple times I’ve assumed everyone gets the joke as a sort of self-deprecating, fun thing but then I find out most people took the chant super seriously? Bro there’s no way, Philly has been spanked by Boston over and over and over again, and this year looked to be very obviously a repeat except probably WORSE than usual. Of course they don’t actually want Boston.
But. Come to think of it. If most people seem to think the chant was “serious,” when it was obviously not serious, then most people must not be as smart as I thought. But that means Philly fans, since they’re also people and therefore probably not smart either, probably WERE serious… which means everyone commenting about it being serious is actually right…
You literally quoted a comment in this thread that doesn’t exist to defend a team thats not yours…. how salty are you bro? You guys are more angry than sixers fans and our team is the one that just got creampied its Hilarious 😂
I mean the thing they quoted was the most common comment on the thread of Sixers fans chanting this during the Play-in game.
So exactly what I said? A quote that doesn’t exist in this thread? Hes not even a Celtics fan lmao you guys are so lame lmao like if you guys wanted us to be upset you gotta not be so corny 🤣 I genuinely cant even respond anymore
You sound kinda pressed
Sounds like they want Boston, tbh
Philly now have humiliation kink
Pretty sure they’ve had it since 85 onwards.
Are we sure it wasn’t Sixers fans in jest?
Good portion had left the building at this point lol
Sounded like a Celtics home game by the third quarter
The C’s have owned the 6ers since the early 80s. This surpasses almost all one-sided sports rivalries. Philly needs to get off the nightmare Embiid and PG contracts asap.
Since forever. Russell’s and Havlicek’s Celtics also owned them
Lmao
I don’t know why we would ever chant that. I was hoping we would lose and beat Charlotte to get Detroit and playoff Tobias Harris. We should know better.
As did every Sixer fan. In no way was that serious.
Fuck I love me some Atlantic Division vitriol
i95 conduit of hatred
Its hard to believe this is the same city that has the Eagles. Shit is a different planet in this arena.
Eagles have given the fans something to be proud of. Sixers have been a joke for over 30 years.
It’s seriously a cruel joke that the guy they passed on for Futlz torments them in every playoff series, almost feel bad for em.
Do you really want a reserve bench who can add on 3 more threes to the record in garbage time?
We need “WE WANT PHILLY” in the Celtics’ next home game
Philly fans are so fake for letting that happen in their own damn building.
Yeah, I was there in the building, WTF was I supposed to do, pray tell?? Start like, a brawl? Should I have done terrorism? Oh wise man, please guide me with your wisdom.
not our fault we have such a big arena + a much lower income fanbase than Boston; so it’s basically inevitable this happens if we match up against BOS/NYK
lmfao
Brutal
It’s actually insane that the most competitive Sixers-Celtics playoff series in the last 30ish years was the 2012 team with Jrue Holiday and Lou Williams as their leading scorer going up against the still relatively good Big 3.
Keep in mind that the last time philly beat Boston in a playoff series the Beat LA chants were born as Celtics fans hoped the sixers would take out the Lakers w magic in the finals.
Trust the process?
How funny would it be if the 76ers won the next game? Because the Philly crowd would start chanting about the “We want Boston” next. Then it’s just both crowds going back and forth saying the same thing
I dont care about what team wins, it would just be funny.
