[Highlight] The Philadelphia 76ers defeat the Boston Celtics 113-97 in Game 5 and will return to Philadelphia for Game 6 on Thursday. They outscored Boston 28-11 in the 4th quarter.
Gotta give props to the Sixers and their resilience
2 Home losses for the Celtics wth lol
Home playoff record as of late has been dogshit
Dont worry the Sixers will be shit as soon as you guys go back to Philly
Except Raps Cavs. Dunno if anyone gonna lose at home there.
Our home record last few years is horrible. I’d rather play away most games
Embiid is a series changer, love how they kept feeding him in the post in the 4th, it’s totally possible this series goes the distance
Celtics C rotation ie legitimately bad. Embiid should just sit in the paint every offensive possession.
But the Sixers C rotation is also bad
Yeah but whatever. It’s been like that Embiid’s entire career, never had a competent C ever. But he I guess has to play 40+ min lol
Doesnt matter that much when Joel plays nearly all the center minutes.
Yeah. And with derrick white playing the way he’s been this season the sixers have no excuses to not win this series. Overall they’re the better team and the only way the celtics can win is by shooting 50% from 3 on 50 attempts with pritchard making halfcourt fadeaways. That’s not sustainable and not gonna happen again.
I was emotionally preparing myself for the Celtics hitting 25 3’s next game
Sixers still breathing
Ya love to see it.
What the fuck is going on in the east lol, all the lower seeds are putting up a fight this season
East has never been more wide open
As long as no catastrophic injuries during the Spurs/OKC dogfight, it feels like whoever comes out of the west will have an easy time with how all over the place the east is
Magic had injuries all year, they are a really good team. No surprise they are taking it to the pistons as they match up with how physical they are. Surprised at how quickly the magic got back into rhythm. Every other series is crazy.
Now franz injured again 💔💔💔
Wow, I didn’t even know that. Cant catch a damn break
Alot more parity with better built teams. Hawks with no Trae or Tingus Pingus. Raps eith brutal physical small ball (imagine Siakam on Harden or Mitchell all game). Phili is a 7th seed and Magic are a huge team.
Indiana gets Hali back next year and one of those teams has to miss the playoffs.
Matchups are alot more fair for team balance. Knicks probably would have swept the Raptors if the Magic beat the Celtics C team in the last game of the season.
Well I wasn’t able to watch the game, but I can go to the game thread and see that Embiid was a free throw guzzling flop terrorist just destroying the 76ers offensive momentum, looking out of shape and basically just generally shitting all over the court while playing all around terrible basketball. Let me just check the boxscore real quick:
33, 8 and 4, 9FTM
Ah. Yep, they were definitely right.
Fuck the C’s!!! lol
Smacking the Celtics in the garden is wild
They really do live and die by the 3
Good series sixers. The resilience your team showed was amazing to watch. Good luck against the knicks!
Boston has so many series where just don’t take care of home for a game 2 or 5 it’s weird
hopefully after today everyone takes boston dicks out their mouths. “The east runs through BOSTON” when they look as flawed and sus as the other east contenders.
11? Dude….
Philly going to be loud for game 5
The Magic being the only Eastern team to win in 5 would be funny.
let’s gooooo
Nobody wanted to talk with the Sixers radio guy after the game, either that or the Celts’ PR people wouldn’t let them!
Tf happened
My hot take is that without injuries, Embiid would have been the best big man since Shaq.
Still living and dying by the 3…
One little letter separates Doc from Dog: the 76ers found some Gs and when from a Doc to having that dog in them.
I hope every team has success after Doc to painfully illustrate how bad he was and because I’m also a victim.
No one in the East has anything for the Thunder
Celtics are not beating the OKC dynasty if they make it to the finals
Mfs won one title
Dynasty 😂😂😂
