Embiid got by with some stuff earlier in the series then gets called for a weak flagrant in OT for swiping down

The 6ers certainly came back and made a game out of it on the road. I was behind, so I could FF thru the commercials, but when they changed the game to TNT, it was already over and I missed the OT.

WTAF?

Go 6ers!

Nice to see Marcus Morris getting lots of playing time for Cleveland at the end of a close game with Orlando.

He's so solid. Guarding Brunson. Think about that. He can guard 1-4 on the NBA level which is absolutely insane.


And Maxey just saved Embiid's ass. Never seen a guy have a triple double and play poorly. Almost a quadruple double with 9 turnovers.

Coaching.

I was thinking Nick Nurse was overrated and what was happening in the series was helping to prove it, and then last night happened.
Although now still up a game in the series, I think the Knicks should be just as nervous if not more nervous than the 6ers.

My guess is 75% of "casual" NBA fans can't name the Magic nor the Cavs Head Coaches.

I actually had the Bucks +4 but for all the shit I give Doc Rivers, I have to give him SOME credit for last night. Bucks made adjustments and found a way to win after looking dead based on the 3 previous games. Dame may be back for Game 6 and if the Bucks win Game 6, I like their chances at home in Game 7.

Celts first game without Porzingis.
Looking good so far ( sans Bam just having his way ).

Boston too good. No Jimmy Butler really took the excitement out of this series.

On another note: I am shocked that the Kyrie and Luka experiment has worked. Seemed like they'd have a hard time coexisting, but they actually play well off of each other.

This is looking far in the future but I almost think Celtics would rather see Denver than Minny now that Porzingis might be out for the whole deal.

On paper, yes....But that championship experience Denver has is valuable. Players and Coaching. And then there's Jokic.

Minny is hot right now though....I just think there is collapse potential with their lack of playoff experience.

Now that Porzingis is out give me Magic, Knicks and Mavs.
Those are the matchups I want.

We think the 76ers force a game 7 after Maxey got away with a travel that led to 4 points in game 5?

Embiid is gonna have to bring it.

I want the Knicks to win so I'm hedging against them tonight.
Knicks win? Yay in sports life.
6ers? Yay in money life.

Why would anyone without their center prefer to play jokic and the nuggets?

No kidding!

What a comeback! Who woulda thunk they'd be leading at halftime and Maxey only has 2 points?
