Where was that vaunted Sixer defense? Bucks much more impressive in their series.

Who would have thought that Terry Rozier would dominate Ben Simmons like  that?

Philly obviously is rusty, but, don’t think they can expect more out of Embiid.

Celtics defense of 3 point line was incredible. If they keep that up and Jaylen comes back next game, Celtics in 5 games. Seriously.

Still think we’ll come down to earth though and expect it to go 7.

TNT crew has a good point, who do the 6ers have that can guard our guys for 7 games.  Tatum, Horford, and Rozier were feasting on Philly d all night, and thats all without Jaylen Brown on the floor.

People don’t realize that these players struggling is about the Cs....Bledsoe did not just wake up and decide to suck. Philly did not just decide to go 19% from three. CBS has a knack of making opponents look bad just like he has a knack to make his players look like stars. You watch the Cs and you can see that the follow the scouting report.

Simmons had a decent stat line 18/7/6, but those stats felt empty tonight.  He didn't seem to really help their team.  We did a good job in slowing him down in transition.  In the 1/2 court Simmons athletic ability is seriously limited when he can't play in space.  Simmons won't take a shot past 15 feet, and we were giving him open looks so we could stay glued to Reddick and Covington and the others.

I mean, he may get better through the series, but after dealing with the Greek Freak in that first round, where he was literally unstoppable, going against Simmons seems less problematic.

yeah simmons cannot hit deep jays just like giannis cannot either. both finish at rim with dunks or easy close shots.  if letting ben get SOME of his 2's at the rim allows us to shut everyone else down i will take it.

Lol in what world does Saric not think that is an over the back foul? Like seriously, how are you arguing that??

While I agree with you, when was the last time, prior to that possession, where that call was actually made? It usually goes against the guy who has blocked out, lol, because logic ::). I think. Honestly no idea ;D.

Embiid was just walking back on defense

That’s no Hakeem

Nope, that's Kareem ;) ;D.

BIG AL!

Al has completely outplayed Embiid at center all night long. Embiid simply can't guard him with his mobility and shooting from the perimeter.

Embiid out there moving like Hibbert, lma0.

great game.   can't wait for game 2.   really ticked game 3 is on ESPN cause I don't get that channel   >:(

Never thought I'd see the day when a Celtics fan is actually disappointed that they can't watch one of Boston's games on ESPN, lol ;D. What about streaming?

Rozier interview after the game:

Reporter: “What is the significance of the Drew Bledsoe Jersey you wore into the Garden?”

Scary Terry: “ He my man. He knows who I am, and I know who he is”

Classic.

Lol, TP ;D.

Speaking of drew Bledsoe... does kyrie become our Drew Bledsoe if Terry ‘Tom Brady’ Rozier leads us to the finals ?



 Yes. Trade the bum for Town's Justin Patton.

Fixed ;D.

Nader watches Scalabrine

Embiid saying Sixers fans are louder. Disappointed to hear that.

Larkin played a ton in the 4th...when on floor with Rozier, Terry was off the ball.

Very solid game 1 win to start the series!  I'm really pleased with what the Celtics showed tonight and how they competed.

TRoz and JTatum are looking really strong as well.  Great signs from our young Celtics.  And Big All was a load to handle all night as well!

I hope Tatum and/or Rozier hit a dagger in one of the road games and shushes the crowd with the finger.

Lets be real, it's easy to say that in a high-intensity game, but when Celtics are down 20, the Garden is still buzzing. PHI is probably silent.

Great game for our starters especially! Bench went in and held their ground as well. Very nice synergy between Smart and Portis Rozier tonight.
