PHILADELPHIA — With just over a minute to play and the Celtics holding a two-point lead, it looked like Jayson Tatum was dribbling out the clock. Then, with less than 3 seconds left on the shot clock, he passed to Payton Pritchard, who was standing in the corner. Pritchard had not yet scored in the […]
Sixers fans are funny. I think they may hate their own players more than they do the Celtics. It's also funny how one will hater on the announcers while another wants them for every game. Personally, I wasn't a fan. Also funny how some feel that Embiid coming back will win them the series while others realize that if he does come back he will be rusty and will likely be limited. They are always going to hate Tatum since they took Fultz 2 picks before h...
Losing home-court advantage before hitting the road against the Philadelphia 76ers prompted a sense of urgency for the Boston Celtics. To them, Game 3 might as well have been a win-or-go-home contest. There were no thoughts of returning to Boston with another split. No feeling of settling. The locker room had made up its mind […]
What’s a night of playoff basketball without the Brotherhood? It doesn’t happen very often, and it didn’t happen Friday night.

Finally, Mason Plumlee and the San Antonio Spurs knocked off the […]
1. TATUMadelphia After years of hitting clutch shots and beating the Toronto Raptors in playoff series, LeBron James eventually got the nickname “LeBronto.” At what point do we come up with a nickname for Jayson Tatum against the 76ers? In my mind I will go with “Tatumadelphia” but I’m sure there’s a better one that […]
PHILADELPHIA — A few feet behind my press row seat, a Philadelphia 76ers fan donning a vintage Allen Iverson jersey turned to his friend. “This time, we’re going to pull it off.” The score was 85-84 in favor of the Celtics with just under 9 minutes to play in Game 3, but inside Xfinity Mobile […]

The Sixers released their injury report ahead of Game 3 as the first round series shifts to Philadelphia, and Joel Embiid wasn’t initially ruled out on it.

After being all the way out, Sixers fans are all the way back in after their Game 2 stunner in Boston. Tying the series up 1-1 against the Celtics, I’m soaking it up. Before Game 3 rolls around, here are some choice thoughts I have about the Sixers… Tyrese Maxey took charge when the Sixers […]
The Celtics took their foot off the gas and got beat because of it. Allowing the 76ers to shoot almost 49% from 3 shows the Celtics weren't serious on defense. Hopefully this loss wakes them up and they take care of business in the next 3 games. Last game I thought Sixers fans were mellowing a little but this game shows they are still insufferable. After hating and trashing their own team and coach through 1 and 3/4 games, suddenly they love their team and all the playe...
