Gentlemen’s Sweep now.

douchbag sweeps win you lose the 1st game then take the next 4

The quotes above were made immediately after our loss in game 1. Way to grab 'em by horns fellas. You were the kryptonite to the doubters, and I salute you.

Comment I copied from a sportsnet post game article poster. Lol.

Just like the moron who didnt know that a certain number of technicals can get someone 1 game suspension. Yet accusing me that I didnt know basketball.

I digress, this was a no brainer series. Expectation was to sweep this wannabees. Now with HCA, another expectation is to mame the sixers in 6

i think he was joking around...

When is the next game if Philly wins tonight?

Knowing the NBA could be as early as thurs since TNT will need content... but probably sat or sunday

[G__Deane]

I think the Philly series goes 6 but we need the Celtics/Bucks series to go a hard fought 7.
If Embiid is hobbled, perhaps the Raps can make a shorter series of it but anyone thinking it will be over in 4-5 if Embiid is healthy and the refs are backing him, is crazy....take game 1 and see where it goes

They took out the Magics, but how will they do when they inevitably must face Lebron's team? That is the true test.

Oh it's the Grizzlies announcer doing the Denver - San Antonio series on NBA-TV.

Why can't Pascal handle Harris? He's not as strong as traditional PF or C. He's not as quick a wing. He's a classic tweener who fits nicely with the modern NBA.

I think Pascal can handle Harris. If anything can Harris handle Pascal who's bigger, quicker and just as skilled.

I don't think Pascal can handle harris so I see Harris doing his thing and even though Marc plays him well Embiid is just too good. He'll do his thing too. If we can keep Butler, Simmons and Reddick relatively quiet we have a shot

Honestly Im not too scared of Philly the way Raps have been playing. They have a pretty porous defense, I think Kawhi and Lowry will get whatever they want. Embiid is crazy good, but Marc can match him about as good as anyone. Philly as a whole is loose with the ball and will give up a ton in transition, plus they go stretches where they cant score in the half-court.

Dont get me wrong, they could get hot, plus I dont doubt that I have only watched them playing poorly this year. It just seems like Philly is lacks refinement and overly relies on Embiid being the best player on the court, but also doesnt know how to effectively play around him. In a seven game series that can be exploited.
