 I love Maxey. Don't get me wrong. He's been the heart of this team all season. But in this Boston series he's looked off. The shot selection is questionable and he's not getting to the rim like he usually does. I know the Celtics game plan is to trap him and force him into tough looks. But even his body language seems different. Is this just a bad matchup or should we be concerned about his ability to carry the offense when Embiid isn't 100%. He's still young and learning but we need him to be that guy in big games. I'm not saying trade him or anything crazy. Just wondering if this is a bump in the road or a pattern. What do you think.

We can’t possibly play as bad as we did on Sunday (probably)?

Why does it seem we're never able to beat our main rivals? They're 15-6 in playoff series against us. Since Joel's been in the league they're gonna beat us for the 4th fucking time.

I know they have a good GM but how the fuck haven't we been able to win at least ONE playoff series against them in my lifetime? We've had Joel, Maxey, Harden, Paul George, even Simmons was good for a while... What is so special about those Boston mfs?

What's everyone's thoughts about who is probably on the way out? It's pretty clear something needs to be shaken up. Media has been saying both but personally I think there's not much any coach could do with this roster.

I'm so tired of saying this but this team takes some of the hardest shots. The heavy ISO and PNR is driving me insane. PNR only works with Embiid yet almost every play was initiated by a PNR? So many high school level plays and this is all Nurse can muster up? In my head I was thinking Nurse was saving some plays for the playoffs but game 1 clearly shows he has no idea how to run any type of offense.

I think after seeing Josh Harris (Epstein associate) sitting courtside last night with Howard Nutlick (Epstein associate), every single sign at the home games this series should say something along the lines of "sell the team, our owner is a pedo". Maybe some chants, too. We cannot stand to have our team continue to be owned by a pedo protector.

kinda fuckin sucks that we didn’t stumble into the 8 seed
