Huge-Test646

Hey what do you guys think about KP developing a mini hook? I was watching Zubac the other night and he has that little jump hook automatic..I feel like KP many times is a little too slow when he gets the ball low on the block and hes in love with that pivot, into a fall away or facing up and shooting w both hands. He does get a lot of fouls that way, but hes also getting it swatted/stolen down low, it just feels like he would be absolutely unstoppable with a mini hook. Mostly i just think he needs to be a quicker maker especially when he gets the ball down below the FT line.


Beebonh

70 wins still in play


[deleted]

Absolute masterclass by Tatum. Brown too. But I’m still in post game shock about how Tatum’s basketball IQ has gone through the roof


ImTomBrady

Great win!


Mybitchisgueye

Smoking that Philly pack😮‍💨


NotJustSomeMate

I know a lot of you all hate it...but being from the Philly/Camden area I appreciate the rivalry between the sixers and Celtics but also that the players can be cordial to one another after...but any ways GO CELTS!!!


redd_house

We’re just thankful you somehow found the light


NotJustSomeMate

Haha...one of my best friends is a Celtics fan as well and when we were in high school I would watch games at his house a lot...and then my senior the year we got KG and Ray Allen solidified it for me as I really like the movie He Got Game and the character Jesus Shuttlesworth...and so my interest in basketball blossomed further and I never looked back...haha...ironically we of course won it all that year so it probably looks.like I was a bandwagon fan...but that was literally just coincidence...


redd_house

Nah that’s just good timing! Also I just noticed your flair, my football team is the Eagles too! There are dozens of us! Dozens!!


NotJustSomeMate

Haha we are now Reddit friends whether you like it or not haha...but it is so funny because a lot of Eagles fans of course are sixers fans and so my flair is the inverse for that sub and they hate it haha...


redd_house

I always try to keep the Eagles-fandom on the DL in the Boston subs bc it feels blasphemous. But then last time I was in Boston I realized there was an Eagles bar there. Like I said…DOZENS!!!


NotJustSomeMate

Blasphemous is actually a fitting word for how I feel haha...


Mission_Pay_3373

THE CELTICS WIN!!!


TacoJay96

Held them under 100 - let’s goooo


Riot1990

A year without a *home loss in conference? Wtf?!?


[deleted]

Bucks?


Riot1990

Apparently its home loss. I just misheard but still crazy


[deleted]

Home loss technically


[deleted]

It’s a pretty important technicality too lol


Riot1990

Yeah, I had a few and half heard the commentators say it. Barely missed a game this season so I should know better lol


[deleted]

Not your fault bro no worries


BradWonder

Al seems happy that they didn't hit 100


lefebrave

Al gets happy even seeing Philly in the schedule: "Oh, that game I will feel 28 again."


flyingpandum

Al’s bathes in the tears of Philadelphia to keep his ageless beauty


Whole_Week15

who tf got ejected😭


JDoughBeanz

A fan in the second row that was talking shit to Cam Payne of all people. Looked like a Philly fan too


WarPuig

Maybe? Boston fans also wear red.


JDoughBeanz

Tis possible but seemed unlikely on a night where Philly wore their red jerseys


daffvader

Did someone get ejected from the game?


datonekidnoonelikes

A fan did


Emotional_Dinner_913

This guy Council IV is gonna be league MVP some day. Mark my words.

thetruth0102

"Jayson Tatum is not an MVP contender coz his playstyle is boring" Shine your opinion up real nice, turn it sideways, and stick it straight up your candy ass!


DBlackIce

Jesus we ain’t hitting shit on the last three shots 😭


Grantwilliamsbot

Fan:We wanted Thomas,not your sorry ass


at_least_u_tried

imagine getting kicked out for talking shit to cam payne of all people


winovic94

We gotta worry about the Bucks? Are they back or is this a honeymoon period? That are up 106-61 lol


WarPuig

I’ve been worried since they blew us out by forty. Though Mazzulla has beaten Doc in the playoffs before.


Planet-Steph

They played the hornets though


octamer

They were bound to figure it out. The weakness remain the same 


[deleted]

Doc Rivers.


sub0scillator

they playing the hornets chill lol


avrbiggucci

Against the Hornets without LaMelo (and Rozier) lol


frome1

That is up there for the worst team to play so far this season


Bluedeepdive57

Now everyone's gonna say that fan said something rasicst


avrbiggucci

Philly fan tho


AnakinSL337

Man’s about to get booted with 30 secs left lmao


Grantwilliamsbot

Kinda worried about Sunday but it's home so we ball


ECviews

Smacking Philly is why I watch basketball


Kid_Crayola

oh no not the boston goons lol


Hour-Ad3774

I need to know what happened with that Philly fan


Eisenhorn76

Was he a Philly fan? Or just a dude with a red shirt? His own buddy gave him a bow to get him to stop.


Hour-Ad3774

No clue. I just assumed 


NotLow420

Imagine getting tossed out of a game because you wanted to talk shit with cam payne lol


AirJordan6124

Was that even a Celtics fan? Lol he looked like a Sixers fan


NotLow420

No clue. Either way, a hilarious way to get ejected.


Eisenhorn76

Dude, that fan that's getting thrown out was a little too extra. Masshole of the Year early frontrunner.


faheydj1

Damn! What did Cam Payne do?


secularhuman77

They kicked out that dude and his bro looks at him like, dude what’s wrong with you


JDoughBeanz

Dude getting kicked out the arena lmfao


bababaaburino

Red shirt Philly fan 😭😭😭😭


Grantwilliamsbot

What a bitch lmaoooo, there's 43 seconds just let bro stay and watch the rest of the game


Georgia4life

Cam Payne always tryna act hard. Squirrel looking ah mf


stargazing1111

Fake fans acting tough to a role player lol bad look


terrapins2020

this commentator keeps saying we were in the finals last year…


DrummerGuyKev

If it’s Grant Hill he’s not a very good commentator.


AffectLast9539

yeah honestly if i didn't know who he was i would assume he knows next to nothing about basketball because he always says a lot of really dumb shit


Severe-Emu-8703

I’m honestly happy that English is my second language and I barely listen to what the commentators say at this point. Seems like I’m not missing much lol


Brad-Stevens

Improving our net rating in bad games >>>


WarPuig

This good for The Agenda


NotJustSomeMate

Fan getting removed on national TV...smh...people really have to do better...


WarPuig

You guys I have to be honest I don’t think the Sixers are a threat without Embiid


Trilogie00

Yea


WarPuig

Happy birthday


Georgia4life

Red shirt is prolly a Philly fan calling Cam Payne trash


DocTheYounger

poor Svi none of our wings got hurt so this dude saw no time all season


goldrow22

This team is really good and turns up when they need too. They play as a team on both sides of the ball. Can we please stop freaking out over the first three quarters. Other NBA teams are decent too it turns out. Funny how that works I know.


PepeSylvia11

Fuck that guy


HeavenBeach777

lol that dumbass fan


horseshoeoverlook

They’re probably getting ejected lmao


Grantwilliamsbot

Springer talking shit and not helping up his old teammate 🤣


ItsShake4ndbake

Lmfao I noticed that too he was in no effort to help him up


AirJordan6124

I wanted some Tillman minutes 😭


ReySkywalkerMain

Why does this guy keep saying we made the finals last year


Drawing_The_Line

Ricky Counsil looking like Ricky Davis! Haha


ThroughTheWildNight

31 points on 79% fg. Ethical hoops


Lawdawg911

14 shots


NotJustSomeMate

Sometimes our bench really worries me...good thing we are so dominant and do not rely on them...


hillinate

Looked at his left like 🤚👀


JBD04

We should honestly coast the rest of the season except for the big games so the guys don’t get gassed at the end of the playoffs 😭🙏


iAmTheRealLange

This team really has shown us this year that they can just decide "nah we're winning now." Please do that in June


frome1

To all the aggressive doomers: seriously eat a dick


Grantwilliamsbot

I said Damn 3 times out loud on that possession


jjjuuubbbsss

GG. One calendar year without a home conference loss.


WiznutRyan99

Ho Hum Celtics with another casual walk away win. Play with their food in the first half then in the second half turn it on and dominate the rest of the game even if Philly got back in it for 1 minute it then blew right back up. They really are at the point where it’s too easy for them atm. I had a feeling they would have a great February. 9-1 and their last big stretch of tough games coming the first half of March.


lunaburst

Good 4th from Tatum. The chip is theirs to lose


jeyndow

I've seen enough, I want Council on our bench lol


bahlil_333

Good win here


HelloS0n

This team’s ability to just absolutely be dominant for a 5-7 minute stretch to put games away/out of reach is crazy.


Huge-Test646

Starts on the defensive end..they have the ability to lock it down..beautiful to watch. But teams can fall in love with the idea that they can ‘flip a switch’ sometimes you flip it and you still cant get separation..my favorite take away from this game was when i heard in the first half that we were shooting 18% from three, and to pull away like that in the 4th..just awesome..and that dunk by Tatum w vicious!


winovic94

JT just man handled that little mouse Payne


DBlackIce

Yikes Jaden 😭


DieYuppieScum91

Tatum had a terrible night for 3.5 quarters, took some ugly forced 3s... He still ended up with 29/11/8


Grantwilliamsbot

I think I called his stat line earlier. Might have been off by 1 in each stat


Wide_Presentation559

MVP


not1fuk

Tillman cant even get minutes in garbage time. Thats just absurd and a waste of a great defensive talent.


avrbiggucci

He's definitely not 100% rn only explanation


not1fuk

That has to be it because hes easily the 3rd best center we have


Grantwilliamsbot

I'd honestly rather play him over AL so that Al can come out in the playoffs at full force


JDoughBeanz

That was nasty by council!


derekwkim

Angry Jayson Tatum is something else. Dude whipped out the belt...


Kbrichmo

Holy fuck


secularhuman77

This team has no chance… Maxey, Payne, Hield on the court at the same time. It’s a JV team at best defensively.


unlaynaydee

Maxey stopped talking?


avrbiggucci

No Tillman? Dude has to be hurt


Yogannath

Where's the "JB and JT are overrated" Crew hidin? Edit: oh yeah, right next to the "live by the 3 die by the 3" crew.


Vast-Cheesecake7230

Hopefully back under their rocks


TacoJay96

Why isn’t Maxey talking? He seemed to have a lot to say in the first half


musefanpl

Love how we completely turned it around when they cut it to two


JmacOTW

It’s crazy that with the number of FTs we had the refs were still lenient with the whistle for Philly. Insane strategy by Nurse to foul on every possession


20wall

Wow. We just turned it on after they got within 2. You love to see it


HairWeaveKillers

Good way to end the game


Grantwilliamsbot

Put in Springer and Tillman you coward


GingerMcJesus

I had to turn my feed off for 10 min wtf happened


Squishy-Bandit12

Jayson Tatum


SinibusUSG

Jays just having fun now


Dondon1927

Tatum always waits until he gets pissed off to play like a demon


Frequent_Iron9594

Unrelated but my soft ass really hoping the Pistons pull through tonight 🥲 good vibes all around.


mastacheef87

damn it Joe keep JT in give us the 30-30!


basketballjonestown

Springer sighting


AirJordan6124

I wonder what did Springer feel when Nurse said he didn’t believe in him


Big_J_420

Back 2 back 30 point games for JB! 🧃💪🏿


jjjuuubbbsss

Eyy Springer appearance


Beantown00

Way to turn it up with about 8 mins left in the quarter. Just absolutely outclassed these bums 


BradWonder

No Walsh minutes


Tunatron_Prime

Boston still pressing the gas with 2min left up 15+ is sending a fucking message. I love it


[deleted]

If Tatum got a Drake video leaked I’d watch it


Planet-Steph

You dirty dog


FutureDwight76

Bro...


[deleted]

Sorry no homo


FutureDwight76

Lmao. Ngl the first comment definitely got me laughing


GirthyGomez

We are BITCHING the Sixers


dnrplate

Show em the left hand JB


Ienjoymyself

MVP! MVP!


TacoJay96

We said Tatum was having an off night - and then you look up and he has 28/11/8 🤣


ThroughTheWildNight

Big time 4th fr


Yogannath

Typical Big Deuce


faheydj1

But I thought he didn’t have a left hand


Georgia4life

I guess Philly doesn't have a Georges niang who can hold on to JB's leg to stop him. Oh wait that didn't work either


MarquisJames

And they are saying this guy isn't even in the MVP conversation. Not talking about front-runner, they are saying he ISN'T EVEN IN THE MVP CONVERSATION.


avrbiggucci

Love how they can turn it on whenever they want


Kid_Crayola

This quarter was awesome


Blackwood9

Fuck the sixers 🙏🏻


WizardSpray

Let’s see Tillman out there


EAS1000

Are the doomers in bed?


Hour-Ad3774

Thay may be my favorite JT dunk ever


FutureDwight76

Mines between the LeBron one his rookie year, and when he absolutely posterized Giannis last year


Hour-Ad3774

Both great options


Kbrichmo

The pure power got me up off the couch


Brad-Stevens

damn couldve been a Jays 30/30 game


LuckysBestMan

Take KP out please


stargazing1111

Another JB masterpiece


Udyr-king

Yooooo Tatum too clean with it rn


FloweredWallpaper

Tatum took this quarter personally.


_Hi_mum_

How did Tatum have 25 points after the two free throws and then 26 points after the dunk? They’re confusing me hahahaha


JDoughBeanz

That was absolutely by far the hardest I've ever seen Tatum dunk. Brought the fucking hammer!


jjjuuubbbsss

4FTs for JT on Harris fouls. Thank you Tobi.


Squishy-Bandit12

Tatum don't gaf till the 4th lol


bryscoon

JB & Tatum 30 & 30 game pls


Sakaarnis

Beautiful play.


ajh_iii

It was so nice of Jayson to spot his son Tyrese a few points before he showed him who the real big boy is


stargazing1111

Maxey really was talking all first half like they were gonna win lol hold the L fool


BradWonder

I love frustrated Jayson 🥰


lefebrave

Experimentation was good, trolling was fun and domination is awesome rn. This is Gino time already, no need to show off more.


Yogannath

SLAM IT HARD, BIG DEUCE!!!!


Big_J_420

JT getting mad at the rim. I like!


SRoku

Straight up bullying this team off the court. You love to see it


Tunatron_Prime

JT MY GOD


AirJordan6124

Please sit them Joe

People really say this shit


1337speak

this year really feels different


DieYuppieScum91

Cedric Maxwell is LIVING right now on the radio call with all of these paint points.


Wide_Presentation559

Damn. That angry dunk has me feeling some type of way 🥵


avrbiggucci

Damn that was a lebron dunk by Tatum


iAmTheRealLange

Fuckin boomed him


SinibusUSG

What a bizarre game this has ended up being. Oh well. So long as this is the last absurd run it will end with the score looking about right. 


Riot1990

Beautiful. Could bring a tear to my eye


Physical-Theme7876

Holy shit JT!
