Celtics @ 76ers 2-12-19 8:00 pm EST

[Ben Simmons 25]

Interested to watch this game for multiple reasons.

No Kyrie for the Celtics... still out with the knee strain.

[Manny98]

Sixers are firing on all cylinders.

Tobias and Boban have integrated flawlessly.

Boston's best player is out.

Celtics' locker room is a shit show.

Tonight's game is in Philly.

...

With all of this in mind, I predict Baynes shoots 7/7 on contested threes and Rozier scores 51 points, and Boston wins by 25.

all signs are pointing to a boston beatdown, which makes me think they will come out with fire.

[Manny98]

lol at EmChoke trying to post up Horford

[Matppak]

Al Horford owns real estate in Embiids head

[Celtics 1825]

In Scary Terry we trust :dancin

[Celtics 1825]

Simmons is always ass against us :lol

baynes is hurt

[Matppak]

Simmons is always ass against us :lol

He's just ass lmao I don't understand people who think he's top 25 only way he's top 25 if your talking about young player potential.

This is how he'll look in the play offs again until he develops his game.

[Celtics 1825]

baynes is hurt
Sadly :cry:

Better now than during the playoffs though.

[coin24]

EmCuck can't even post up horford.. gets frustrated and cries:oldlol:

[Celtics 1825]

Hayward on fire :lebronamazed:

[Matppak]

The goat TJ is the only thing keeping the 6ers alive

[Celtics 1825]

This game is ugly

[brooks_thompson]

Tatum is like the ultimate telegraph-iso player. Can he make it any clearer what he wants to do

[Milbuck]

Tatum takes so many trash shots man. He really does play like a guy who worked out with Kobe a few times and thinks he can play like him, but has nowhere near the talent to do it.

[tpols]

he keeps trying to do the face up rock back and forth crossover...youre right he looks super predictable. no change of pace or quick strike

[Ben Simmons 25]

:roll:

I've recognized that since the very beginning of the season.

[CelticBaller]

Rozier :facepalm

[CelticBaller]

Tatum seriously bought the hype :facepalm

[Celtics 1825]

Embiid getting clamped by Horford as usual :oldlol:

[Wally450]

This is the best matchup for the Celtics after the two collapses. A playoff team everyone is hyping up but you have their number, even without Kyrie. The defense needs to keep up in the second half.

[LAmbruh]

Embiid getting clamped by Horford as usual :oldlol:
always :oldlol:


Em......CHOKE :banana:

[CelticBaller]

If Rozier thinks he can be a starter in the league how about he ****ing shows up

We should be up by 10+ rn, 76ers spotting us a lead

Hopefully we don't have our patented 3rd quarter meltdown

[tpols]

Embiid getting clamped by Horford as usual :oldlol:


i dont understand why... i remember tristan thompson big boying him into the stands years ago and embiid is bigger.

[CelticBaller]

i dont understand why... i remember tristan thompson big boying him into the stands years ago and embiid is bigger.
TT is a below the rim high motor guy, Embiid is a post up/ face up C

TT will abuse Horford in the glass and the score off second chance pts

[brooks_thompson]

Tatum takes so many trash shots man. He really does play like a guy who worked out with Kobe a few times and thinks he can play like him, but has nowhere near the talent to do it.

I don't hate Kobe, think he was great, but I believe working out with him last summer may have damaged Tatum's career trajectory. Instead of just teaching him moves and letting him use them as he (Tatum) sees fit, he tried to stress the 'Mamba Mentality'. Not good for such a strong personality to try to change a 20-year-old's mindset in a couple weeks time.

[Manny98]

EmShrink shrinking as usual against Horford :roll: :roll: :roll:

[Rudeboy3]

Big dick Al dad dicking emchoke right now, embitch taking everysingle last inch :roll: :roll: :roll:

We know all too well that Rozier sucks on the road for whatever reason

And yeah, not looking forward to the next quarter...

[Matppak]

This is why the 6ers aren't getting out of the 2nd round Simmons has played the most mins in this game outside of Tatum and he has 4pt 2ast and 2tov and "the best center in the league" is getting clamped by a guy who is a legit 3-4inchs shorter. 6ers should seriously consider trading Simmon before its 2022 and they are being bounced from the 2nd round for the 4th straight year and Simmons still can't shoot outside of 8ft and now he has now trade value.

[brooks_thompson]

That was cold by Tatum, just hung Rozier out to dry against Harris

[Prometheus]

Sixers have a mental block vs. Celtics at this point. They play with such poor focus against this team.

[brooks_thompson]

That Tatum boomed em

[Celtics 1825]

Redick will be the reason we lose

[Mask the Embiid]

[brooks_thompson]

Man, I get tired of the Boban novelty show celebrations. He's proven it enough now, even in limited minutes, that he's not a freak, he's just really good.

God i love the gif. Wonder how many shots he'd had. Probably like 15

[Ben Simmons 25]

God i love the gif. Wonder how many shots he'd had. Probably like 15

It is pretty spectacular, ha.

[Celtics 1825]

Hayward beasting tonight, he's been playing a lot better the last few games :applause:

[Prometheus]

We are lucky to not be down 20. This is a humiliating showing by Philly. Getting picked apart on both ends badly. Open shot after open shot for Boston, everything super contested on offense. Infuriating to watch.

[fourkicks44]

We NEED this series in the playoffs.

[Celtics 1825]

What do you know, we actually didn't collapse in the 3rd quarter for once :eek:

[NBASTATMAN]

Big dick Al dad dicking emchoke right now, embitch taking everysingle last inch :roll: :roll: :roll:


I agree.. Embid has problems with Horford.. Embid carved up the Laker bigs the other night like a hot knife though butter.

[Matppak]

Hayward beasting tonight, he's been playing a lot better the last few games :applause:

I think he's finally finding himself again

[CelticBaller]

Roziers in 21 minutes

0 pts,4 ast 4 reb :facepalm

[Matppak]

Embiid is allegeric to help defense and posting up within 10ft of the basket.

[Prometheus]

I almost want to turn this game off and not bother watching the 4th Q. The way our guys just collectively play timid and unfocused against their biggest rival is so pathetic. After this game I feel positive we will lose to them in the postseason again.

[Rudeboy3]

emchoke with the God like 3-12 stat line :roll: :roll:

If Kyrie was in this game we would be spanking ya

if you guys want HCA against ya have to beat us. The playoff race is already tight as it gets

[CelticBaller]

these refs are horrible

[Prometheus]

It really is incredible. It makes no sense how bad we play against them. If you just watched this game you would think these teams are not comparable. It's hard to believe this Sixers team is the same one I just watched beat the dubs and jazz. They look totally different against Boston. It is 100% mental for them.

game aint over lol

[Celtics 1825]

Crap Embiid is heating up

[FKAri]

"Morris Sr."
Is this a new change?

Boston playing very well. 76ers just not comfortable with each other yet.

[Celtics 1825]

He changed it to Morris Sr. after his son was born who's Marcus Jr.

he changed it at the beginning of the season after his son was born


Rozier is a ****ing ghost on the road :facepalm

[CelticBaller]

lets ****ing go T ro

play like you want that contract

[Prometheus]

JJ Redick is such an unintelligent player. It's hard to believe he's as old as he is. Plays like a young idiot.

[Manny98]

Celtics own the 76ers they don't even need Kyrie to beat them

[Wally450]

Rozier gonna clutch it up in the final 5 minutes.

[Celtics 1825]

Bring Gordon back in to close this out.

[Celtics 1825]

Lmao Embiid is forced to chuck up 3's because he's scared of Horford :oldlol:

[CelticBaller]

Marcus Smart hasn't made a single 3 :facepalm

[Celtics 1825]

Omg Smart stop fvcking shooting you're like 0-10 tonight :facepalm

[yeaaaman]

People automatically putting the Sixers in the Finals or as the favorites in the East because of the trades... I'm thinking you have to question the sixers halfcourt offense. Butler and Harris are great pick-ups but with Simmons lack of shooting at this point I seriously question Embiid's offensive decision making. I could easily seing a repeat of last year in against any of the East's top teams, regardless of tonights outcome.

[Doranku]

Embiid :applause:

[Celtics 1825]

Marcus Smart hasn't made a single 3 :facepalm
What the hell happened? He was doing great until the last few games

[CelticBaller]

Hayward :bowdown:

[Celtics 1825]

My boy Gordon silencing the haters :bowdown: :bowdown:

[Celtics 1825]

TF refs

[Mask the Embiid]

JJ Redick is such an unintelligent player. It's hard to believe he's as old as he is. Plays like a young idiot.
I legit laugh to myself whenever anyone calls him a high iq player.I let them think it tho, i dont argue with em.


This game is cool, Hayward and Tatum wont be doing any of this shit when Kyrie plays....we got the Celtics this year i love it

[Doranku]

:roll: What the hell was that?

[TommyGriffin]

Butler. :oldlol: :oldlol:

[CelticBaller]

****

[Celtics 1825]

WTF HAYWARD :facepalm :facepalm Ugh

[Wally450]

Take that shit to the rim Marcus! :applause:

[Manny98]

EmChoke :roll: :roll: :roll:

[CelticBaller]

Embiid Is A Bitch

[brooks_thompson]

Lole the embiid vs. horford matchup is just hilarious. And i'm not rooting for either team.

[Proctor]

:roll: :roll: :roll:

Horford will always own Embitch. ALWAYS. :yaohappy:

"EmGOAT!!!!"

[Celtics 1825]

EMSHRINK BACK AT IT!! :roll: :roll:

[Ben Simmons 25]

That was a pretty clear rake across the arms by Horford on Embiid. I mean REAL obvious.

James Harden gets calls waaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy less obvious than that literally all game long.

Pathetic reffing on a crucial play.

[LoneyROY7]

That's a blatant foul holy shit.

[yeaaaman]

The Raps pick-up of Gasol will be really important if they play Philly.

[thefatmiral]

Embiid you are Sackless

Literally RIGHT in front of the baseline ref.

[brownmamba00]

Jimmy meatballs for the GW

[Ben Simmons 25]

Literally RIGHT in front of the baseline ref.

Yeah, it was pretty bad. One of the worst no calls I've seen in a while.

[Prometheus]

You think Butler is thinking about those two free throws he missed?

[coin24]

This is why Philly won't win shit in the playoffs..
EmCuck with that pathetic post up and turnover. Simmons Mia.
Soft betas crying for calls

[Celtics 1825]

Fvck if we choke this I swear

Yep...two divas, a guy who can't shoot to save his life, and an overshadowed Tobias Harris.

[Ben Simmons 25]

You think Butler is thinking about those two free throws he missed?

Yeah, you could see it on his face and lips specifically right before he made the and-1.

[coin24]

leave plz, there are no virgins allowed in this thread.


Nice 2 point basket after hesitating for 5 seconds EmBitch:oldlol:
Pretenders

[coin24]

Can't even beat the celtics without kyrie batman:roll: :roll:

[Wally450]

The East still goes through Boston baby! :banana:

[bluechox2]

boston doesnt even need kyrie..stacked af

[coin24]

What a surprise one of the shittest coaches in the league didn't save a timeout:lol :lol

Tatum clutch af

[Matppak]

I have no faith in Brown's coaching abilities. Wtf was that play he drew up and did he really believe Brad was telling Tatum to miss it out loud like that?

[Celtics 1825]

3-0 vs the Suxers :roll: :roll:

This roster needs a real coach

[dbugz]

Media about to pick the Celtics again to win the East. :roll:

So effin tired of these so called "analysts" few game overreaction analysis :oldlol:

[Derka]

Yeah that

[Real Men Wear Green]

Ben Simmons has the worst shooting mechanics I've ever seen on a scorer. There is no rhythm to his jumper of any kind, it's like his individual body parts are arguing with one another over what they should be doing. He is absolutely good enough to carry a team through the regular season but in a playoff series he has the kind of weakness that a smart defensive team can exploit.

[GOBB]

Same issues as always with Sixers. Even if they pulled out a win. Doesn
