Game 1:
  • Tatum 28, Fultz 0 (points, most by a Celtics rookie by some guy name Bird)
  • Taum 39, Fultz 0 (minutes)
  • Tatum 3, Fultz 1 oh and a future 1st rounder
  • I know Embiid is supposed to be a good defender, but why is he doubling Larkin and leaving Horford wide open for a 3 at the top of the key?
  • Scary Terry is earning his $1.9m in the post season alone. 29-8-6? Come on man!
  • Marcus Smart's rebound on Embiid and the fall away jump hook is the manliest thing I've seen in a very long time
  • Yabusele's butt is doing a great Barkley impression
More to come!

Game 2:
  • Here come the Celtics!
  • I like Ben Simmons' Dads tree necklace more than I like Ben Simmons game tonight
  • Oh My Tatum! Timeout Sixers!!!!
  • Nice timeout play by Brett Brown
  • Embiid can pass!
  • Is Tatum the best rookie since LeBron?
  • + 16 so far for McConnell tonight. Does he get the start over Simmons game 3?
  • Jalen's hammy flying in high for the slam!
  • Come on Saric you thug! Can you get 2 PF on the same play?
  • Kevin Hart better watch it. This isn't Miami, you pull that crap in Boston and you might wind up in a dumpster.
  • Stop shooting Smart!!!!!!!!
  • Scary!!!!!!
  • Horford goes right by Embiid for the win! I hope WIS doensn't look at that play when they set his defensive rating.
  • I give Brett Brown credit for putting Simmons back in late. This is a good opportunity for him to learn and grow for next year. I'm sure he won't be emotionally scarred like Mr. DNP

You do realize Tatum isn't even the best rookie left in this season's playoffs, right? If you don't know who is, ask the Rockets.

Mitchell is very good, but I would take Tatum over him. Mitchell is a great scorer, but doesn't do a whole lot else yet and his efficiency is quite where Tatum's is. It's close

Doesn't do a whole lot else? Let me know when Tatum has 11 dimes in a Playoff game.

He was also D'ing up against the "most unguardable player" in league history (shameless shot at zelda)

like, Mitchell had a horrible game shooting the ball, yet his fingerprints were all over that victory. More, he didn't look like a rookie. He looked like he had been there before. A bunch. It's still really early to say this, but the kid looks like he's got "it" & got "it" in abundance.

I was coaching a baseball game and couldn't post for game 3. Haven't seen the highlights yet, but I'm guessing it would have been fun.

We got two great games tonight.
The NBA is in a good place right now with lots of young talent in the league.
I look forward to seeing what the best player does against arguably the best coach next round.

Should be a good game tonight. I completely missed the early game Monday. Hate that early time....

Game 6:

I was going to post and got pulled into something for work and making my DSPL picks. But I couldn't resist....
  • I want the back story on how they convinced Drew Bledsoe to come to game 5 with a Rozier jersey on. I know the whole Drew Bledsoe uniform story from the Milwaukee series, but I can't believe Bledsoe is actually there
  • When a player comes over the back of a player with position boxing out and the ball goes out of bounds, possession ALWAYS goes to the player who had inside position. Rule #1 of pick up basketball.
  • Embiid misses the bunny! Rozier knocks it away!!!
  • Celtics over Cleveland in 7
