Hawks were 20-47 from 3 42.6% Well done Wow. And that's with the doubleteaming of Trae. Guy to watch in the series going forward is Huerter. He's a shooting guard, but he's going to be the play maker if Trae is double teamed. I noticed the Hawks put Lou Williams and Trae Young on the court at the same time, but it didn't work. I expect a radical offensive adjustment by the Hawks the next game....and I wont be surprised if Capela doesn't start.

They are going to have to practice breaking those full court presses and trap defenses.

Nice comeback by the Sixers but this is going to be a tough series. Bright spot is Embid doesn't really look all that bothered by the injury.

Personally I'm an nWo guy and always thought DX was rather juvenile, cringeworthy and lame - But this was pretty cool to see

On the upside, fam, everyone is talking about us again. Sure, many are now picking against us, and many are saying its time to panic, but I'd rather be discussed as an embarrassing #1 seed than be out of the conversation like the 76ers of the west currently are.
And you know what that means? We are now the, say it with me, UNDERDOGGGGGGS!
From now on, any win our scrappers can manage against the 5 seed with no playoff experience is GRAVVVVVVVYYYYYYY!!!!!!

If we win, I called it. If we lose, the process continues and it was all a part of the plan. I have mastered the art of sports delusion.

Per Shams, Daryl Morey has been fined $75,000 for tampering Morey had tweeted to Steph Curry - 'join em' in regards to joining his brother Seth and the Sixers Steph becomes a Free Agent after the 2022 season Was this all part of Daryl's master plan in bringing Seth over - to lure Steph? Is Steph the final piece of 'The Process'? We may know the answer after the 2022 season folks.
Stay tuned to this developing ongoing story

Sixers 100% win this series. No doubt in my mind. In fact, I am calling that they win in 5. Atlanta played out of their minds and Philly came out flat. It will not happen again. Philly is simply the better team. I will actually be at the game to night with my daughter. It is her first NBA game. I am really excited for her.

You said exactly the same thing about the Sixers 4-1 loss to the Celtics in 2018. Practically verbatim. Better luck this time.

Hey. This isn't true. Lou Williams is a Hawk with playoff experience. And Capela has some, and don't forget about Gallinari!
I guess that's about it, and if I was making a list of Hawks' players old enough to shave, it'd be around the same length. Might even be just those 3.
And also, let's not pretend that literally everyone on the Sixers' has playoff experience. I mean, Isaiah Joe, Tyrese Maxey, and Gary Clark have never been, although some might claim that's just because they are rookies.
What a great time to be a Hawk!

Curious to see who Doc puts on Trae to start the game Danny got a lot venom spewed his way around here on defensive which wasn't warranted (on offensive - yes it was warranted) Trae's a 22 year old gunslinger Danny will be 34 in a couple of weeks - and is still a decent 3&D Wing in this league A 34 year old savvy vet isn't going to slow down Trae I thought it was smart not putting Ben on Trae to start the game. Trae is a master at drawing fouls. As soon as Doc put Ben on him in the 2nd half - Trae immediately drew 2 fouls. What I'd do? I'd start Matisse Thybulle and put 'Tisse on Trae You won't 'Stop' Trae - can only hope to slow him down. 'Tisse is our best option to start the game Then in the 2nd half if Ben is out of foul trouble start throwing Ben and 'Tisse at him Let's see what Doc does folks

Harris with a quick 12 points
Be so nice if he played aggressive like this every night....

Our bench giving us squat again
Perhaps we should play all of our starters 48 minutes

Hawks Bench - 32 points Sixers Bench - 0 points
That is jaw dropping and appalling

76ers up by only 2 at half. I am smelling trouble for the 76ers.
