    On a completely different note, I see there’s a remake of “White Men Can’t Jump” coming out, with Jack Harlow playing the Woody Harrelson character. I’ll give anything basketball-related a chance, but I fully expect this to be a giant stinking ball of 💩.

    Oh Jesus. Mark Jackson commentating, might as well it the tv on mute. 🙄 He’s already come out with more cliches in the opening section than most others would put in a 3 hour broadcast. This is going to be a tough listen.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    Two blatant travels in the first 30 seconds there by Philadelphia uncalled. Bad sign.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    Two more travels by Philadelphia uncalled.

    sixers noticeably playing much faster than usual, big adjustment by Doc.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    PJ Tucker with 8 points already. That’s honestly the most I can remember him scoring in a game in years.

    He’s also impacting the game defensively.

    Sixers playing very well to be fair.

    I’ve counted 8 uncalled sixers travels now. All blatant.

    One of my fav movies ever this has truly depressed me. Some things should be sacred

    In reply to Butters White Men Can’t Jump comment 😂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    Another travel!!! FFS.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    Missed backcourt there too. Sixers getting a lot of breaks from the refs.

    How is that a foul? That’s a ridiculous call. Scott Foster in the house.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    Nice bit of Gang Starr there, brings me back.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    Lol, Mark Jackson just said that’s the correct call. That’s some funny 💩. Next week he’ll be saying how tough play in the 80s and 90s was. 🙄



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    Mark Jackson would give an aspirin a headache.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    Mark Jackson’s “analysis” consists of giving the most basic description of what just happened. It’s hilariously bad.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,752 ✭✭✭Corvo


    Scott foster can f*ck off



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    That’s shocking from the refs. Shocking.


    Philly player (Niang) on the bench grabs Brown from the bench, then Scott Foster gives Brown a Technical. Shocking. Niang should be ejected for that.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,772 ✭✭✭MyPeopleDrankTheSoup


    that spin move from tatum, around 4mins left in 2nd quarter, how the hell was it not a travel?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    That was a charge. But to then call a foul on Smart because Embiid fell on him is ANOTHER crazy call.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    I know they’re up 3 but that’s a terrible last possession by Tatum.

    Went back to look. Assume you’re referring to this play?

    Absolutely not a travel. Watch it again. Not just saying this because I’m a Celtics fan, would say it if you threw that accusation at any player. That’s not a travel. And I’ve complete all referee exams up to FIBA level.

    can’t post a video as the site won’t take the file size.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    11 uncalled travels, a missed backcourt, a couple of very dodgy foul calls, a missed ejection and a ridiculous technical…..and still up 3.

    Relatively happy, but have a feeling Boston are kinda being screwed here.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    If there’s any sneakerheads out there, the sneaker king himself PJ Tucker is wearing a pair of KD IV Nerfs. In his size , that’s a $20,000 sneaker. This isn’t unusual for Tucker btw.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    Tatum on fire. 35points with just under 8 mins left in the 3rd. 50 on the cards.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,526 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Really hope Celtics keep this going.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 140 ✭✭johnnyk29


    Wow Tatum playing unbelievable stuff 😮



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    Tied at 55, Celtics go on a 33-7 run. Harden and Embiid have disappeared. Doc’s getting fired after this “fo sho”. Worst up 3-1 and 3-2 records AND elimination game % in NBA coaching history.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 140 ✭✭johnnyk29


    When he is on he is so good to watch play, 76ers just look like they have checked out completely

    Is Doc overrated? This has happened to him too many times, living off that 2008 success with that great Celtics team he had
