2017-18 NBA (Playoffs): A gasping, wheezing thread begs message board poster arguing how Jordan never lost a Finals to just let it die in peace (2 Viewers)

[need2know]

Sixers ####ed.  Too many mistakes

 

[NutterButter]

Hortford is a beast

 

[Synthesizer]

Simmons completely out of control on every shot he's taken this half.

 

[modogg]

Doing a nice job getting into position on D when they end up in mismatches after picks.

Horford-Dario is not the match-up you want if you are the Sixers. 

and yes they showed Drew Bledsoe again. Celtics may win the series, but i think it is obvious Philly wins in life

If you’re any example modogg, Sixers have won for the next generation 

 

[Insein]

Gut check time. Come on Brown come up with an answer.

 

[Kraft...]

Bledsoe whiffed on the hi-five with Wic  

 

[offdee]

Drew Bledsoe with the high five whiff, and then that salt bae looking friend saying to Drew, "good job".

 

[Long Ball Larry]

Horford-Dario is not the match-up you want if you are the Sixers. 

Well, yeah, that’s not working out.

 

[wilked]

Simmons completely out of control on every shot he's taken this half.

All the Sixers big runs came w him on the bench. He is playing too soft on D and out of control on O 

 

[Long Ball Larry]

Bledsoe, GFY.  You got beaten out by a 6th round pick.

 

[trader jake]

Simmons completely out of control on every shot he's taken this half.

No doubt, the Celtics defense has him sped up right now.  If he stops and pump fakes...well he'd get fouled because Boston would make him hit two from the line.

 

[modogg]

Well, yeah, that’s not working out.

i'm just not sure what the defensive plan is. it was a few in a row.

and holy hell, Boston this is embarrassing. 

and lol, crying about that foul. i feel like i am insane watching this game as the Celtics push the Sixers all game and then are surprised when a foul is called.

What’s his plus / minus?  Too lazy to look it up

#reftalk, all day every day 

 

[JuniorGong]

Nice flop

 

[NutterButter]

its really impressive that Embiid can guard guys like Tatum and Brown at the 3 point line.

 

[wilked]

Someone blew that Daric assignment badly 

 

[wilked]

Guy is such a good athlete 

 

[ShamrockPride]

Couldn't knock down their FTs at the end. C's earned this L.

 

[modogg]

Embiid is impressive with his FTs. they talk about how it is harder for big men to make free throws, and compare it to average people shooting with a tennis ball. for such a young player who can draw fouls that is an under-rated part of this game

 

[NutterButter]

Guy is such a good athlete 

And then there's Simmons who Tatum just blows by

 

[modogg]

Gut check time. Come on Brown come up with an answer.

i can't believe they are hanging in this game with giving the Celtics the bonus with 10 friggin' minutes in the 4th

 

[modogg]

lol Dario, now you are just f'n around

 

[wilked]

As bad as the Celts have shot,

amazing they are only two down 

 

[NutterButter]

Thank god for replay.   One can only take so much whining about bad calls.

 

[HellToupee]

My goodness

 

[Long Ball Larry]

Meh Should just watch more regular white people

 

[sports_fan]

You guys watching the game?

 

[wilked]

Big finish here 

 

[ShamrockPride]

Tatum got hit right in the face but no foul...okay

 

[JuniorGong]

Great game no matter how it turns out

 

[Insein]

Turnovers again at the end killing us. Sigh

 

[wilked]

Lol at Saric trying the Embiid “bury your shoulder into the player” move

 

[Synthesizer]

Horford double dribbled on that steal.  Just sayin.

 

[Long Ball Larry]

My lord, this is quite the tensest

 

[Nigel]

Tatum got hit right in the face but no foul...okay

Letting them play both ways down the stretch here, Love it

 

[Long Ball Larry]

Horford double dribbled on that steal.  Just sayin.

I like the cut of your gib

 

[Insein]

Series

 

[caustic]

New title  

 

[Dedfin]

I thought punching someone in the face was a foul, my bad

 

[Kraft...]

DREW!!!!

 

[wilked]

Series

I think this is the fourth or fifth time you called it in this game ;-)

 

[NutterButter]

Celtics just so gritty

 

[HellToupee]

C’mon Terry

 

[wilked]

Gotta make free throws 

 

[Kraft...]

Smart was the difference down the stretch 

 

[Long Ball Larry]

Celtics just so gritty

By gritty you mean watching embiid miss an open layup?

 

[NutterButter]

Smart was the difference down the stretch 

Hortford pretty solid as well

 

[wilked]

Scary
