LOL no


But it's not arguable

Literally look at what happened....

Celtics were outscored when Tatum, Brown, Smart were all on the floor. Meanwhile, Sixers were up up big with their starters. Just watch the damn game, Boston went on runs when Embiid and company went to the bench and had to rely on their bench 🤦‍♂️

Sixers bench all -20 meanwhile Celtics bench like +20 lmao. Unreal differences, night and day bench production.

Celtics depth is impressive, it's what sets them apart and has given them the edge vs the Sixers this season for sure.

Bruh, your starters outscored us by only 7 points, and that’s whilst playing at home… and Embiid alone having more free throws than our entire team (your team had close to triple ours… Tatum had 2…….) all the while Tatum had a quiet game

It’s not close at all and I’m happy to start a real gm poll to confirm

Joel Embiid giving up that WIDE open put back for Tatum cost them the win

Zero IQ

It’s basic fundamentals to box out but he was a deer in the headlights

The 76ers are no good

I’m bringing them up because the refs were all over your cock

Smart was in foul trouble because of some of the worst officiating I’ve ever seen.

As for your screenshots: okay, the 76ers starters played better in this game..? Ok? (Largely due to Embiid, refs and Tatum playing poorly) Does that mean they’re better in general? No…. The Celtics starters have THE best +/-, and net rating in the league when on the court together….. go on, google it. You’re not fucking close to us in any capacity. It’s 3-0 on the season for good reason.

Do you ever get tired of complaining about the refs? Serious question, because you do it more than anyone I've ever met. Like every celtics game, refs refs refs....

Sixers lead the league in FT shooting. Embiid is unstoppable, nobody in the league is in his class to stop him, only foul him. He was baiting celtics defense all game getting them to jump because he's just too good and too high IQ, it's too easy for him to draw fouls. Plus he's an excellent free throw shooter. How many times did we see the Celtics just straight up intentionally foul him because they had no choice? A lot.

Anyways, Celtics won because of their depth. Everyone already knows this, this isn't opinion its a fact that you can't homer your way out of. The difference in bench production was massive, and yet it was only a 3pt win. Sixers lost because their bench blew the game when starters would sit, nothing new.

I’m not arguing that Celtics won because of our depth. I told you this in pre season that our depth >>>>>>>>>> yours. You have none. You didn’t listen to me but I tried to explain this to you.

But our starters are still better. Yours outplayed us in the game (very marginally), but ours are still far better. Your starting 5 is barely top 5 in the league. Statically our starting 5 has been the best in the league for the last 2 years. Look it up pls.

Sixers have better depth than years past, but celtics is simply better. More reliable players, but the main issue for the sixers is no big man to back up Embiid and anchor the defense per usual.

As far as starters go, Sixers in the playoffs will go h2h with anyone in the league. That's not a concern of ours, it's depth. Story of our lives, Embiid kills everyone and the minute he steps off they get annihilated. Doc also has some bad rotations too, still can't figure that mf out.

Tatum 6-for-18 tonight and a game worst -18 as the Celtics lose to the Knicks

No Jaylen Brown tonight to save Tatum and bail him out

told us post All-Star Tatum is a force to reckon with? Dude is fucking ASS


In 3 games since the All-Star break, Tatum is averaging just 21 PPG on just 36% FG and 24% 3PT and 4.5 turnovers per game. In those three games he's -8, -6, and -18 :rofl:

Say it with me now....OVERRATED
