    Force of habit...I don't believe they've ever won a game one in the playoff if JD Skeets is correct about it

    Embiid's elbow is a f1.
    Not a f2.

    Also the rookie who threw an elbow at Simmons needs to flop & yell next time Simmons crashes like that.
    Will get a foul called on Simmons instead of a f1 called on you.

    Anyone else hate the Sixers? Its really hard for me to get excited about a player like Embiid who misses so many games. Simmons has never met a free throw line he liked.
    Come on Brooklyn.

    Hate them now.
    Can you imagine Nurk on the bench looking at Skal's cellphone while the Blazers are playing so bad Moda is booing them in a playoff game?
    Would never happen, no way Damian would let that ever happen.
    Maturity. Grace and Class the 76ers do not have. Bunch of talented, immature, leaderless jerks.

    Brooklyn sure collapsed second half. Looked like they could go up two games to none on the road.

    Can the Clips steal one?

    As you can hear on our podcast, Chris has pointed out that the team with the best three point percentage has won every game so far these playoffs.

    Can't believe they even wasted the time to review that Harrell foul on Durant.

    Loved the way Harrell made a point after the foul to make sure Durant stayed upright and communicated with him that all was good. Excellent display of sportsmanship.
