How ordinary was Embiid and Simmons today

Didn't see it. I think Embiid is carrying an injury, only looked his normal self one game this series.
I assume Simmons is still being played a bit out of position as Jimmy Butler has been spending a lot of time at PG.

Don't know if Brown is the right man for the job, I didn't even rate him that highly when he coached in the NBL.

Embiid has been injured and Simmons isn’t good enough. At his size he needs to be able to shoot otherwise good teams just sag off him and can defend him inside where as the lower teams aren’t good enough to do that. It’s why his stats against the better teams and defensive teams is no where as good as they are against the bottom sides. All well and fine going after butler and Harris but philly have no bench now and it’s coming back to hurt them.

Horribly disappointing series from the C’s after game 1.

Irving after Game 3 "you will never see me shoot 8/22 again".......

Game 4 7/22
Game 5 6/21

He was right I guess.

[Gozu]

I bet Durant is having a good hard think about teaming up with Irving in NY now.

Horribly disappointing series from the C’s after game 1.

All season I thought they looked a better team when Baynes played but they constantly benched him

76ers win game 6. Jimmy Butler great again, definately our man of the playoffs so far.
Milwaukee will get a weeks break since this semi goes to game 7.

[DOC]

Simmons played better. That weeks break is very valuable.

Perfect result for us today

Blazers win in 7!!

17 down in the second, they rally behind CJ McCollum (37 pts, 9 boards) to win 100-96

First appearance in the Western Finals since losing/choking to the Lakers in 2000.

[Wedgie]

76ers and Raptors tied wifh 3 mins to go despite Toronto being +10 in offensive rebounds and having 20 more shots.

[Brodlach]

What a game

Scores level 4.2 seconds left


Ball bounces on the rim 5 times goes in and Raptors advance

[Brodlach]

Leonard WOW!

[Wedgie]

**** me, how arsey was that.

[Wedgie]

Shot wasnt even close, neither was the next three bounces!

[bertiebeatle]

That was insane! He’s so clutch!

[Brodlach]

They lost it the last two minutes because of the two possessions they didn’t even get a shot off

[Jim05]

LOL we can’t even tank properly.
Pellies get pick 1

[Jim05]

I thought Steph was cooked according to the naysayers [emoji3]

[saintal]

GSW win an entertaining game two 114-111

Portland led by as many as 17 early in the second half, and 8 with about 3 mins left. We shot the ball a lot better than game 1 (18/39 from beyond the arc), but defense was poor in second half, so many easy buckets in the key.

Going to be hard from here, to state the obvious

[bertiebeatle]

Butler gone from Philly unsurprisingly
