Sixers have been on a roll, 7-3 in their last 10. And they are within two games of tenth place, which I believe is their new goal. And they have folks murmuring about how they are starting to get healthy and with a couple breaks they could be contenders after all.

Humiliating them on National TV today would be satisfying.

Magic loss was the first loss of the year I was angry with. This one is on ESPN+, so I can watch, and I want to watch a win.

86 the 76ers!

Embiid's odds of playing this game are dropping like the temps in Boston. But since the Steelers game should finish by 4:30, my inlaws are grudgingly allowing me to put on basketball.

Nix the Sixers!

So what's the plan, NFL for 30 minutes, then Celtics until halftime of NFL, then Beyonce, then back to Celtics until conclusion, and then back to NFL if anything left?

I’m sorta fucked up, but I’m officially concerned about the Cs offense.
This is the kind of game that would make me worried about Brown/Tatum in a physical playoff series (both had two turnovers and could barely get shots up when driving), if we hadn’t already seen them go through and win a ton of those battles in the past.
