Milton landed waaaay before he shot it

 

[osori]

Where is the confetti?

 

[BigSoxFan]

See ya, Simmons

 

[luckiestman]

He was fouled before he travelled, imo.

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

No Nets, Sixer or Lakers in the finals? I'll take it.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

All those Tobias Harris missed dunks / lay-ups.

 

[donutogre]

Love paying $30+ million to a player who literally can’t be on the floor in closing lineups if you need a bucket.

Yeah that is such a damning indictment of him. It’s ridiculous.

 

[patinorange]

So that was a travel

No such thing in the NBA anymore.

 

[Ale Xander]

See ya, Simmons

Looking on the floor, he already left

 

[RedOctober3829]

See ya, Simmons

Hope he loves OKC.

 

[bigq]

I didn’t think the Hawks could do it. I am happy they are bouncing the Sixers.

 

[BigMike]

That was a travel.

True, but it also may have been a foul before the travel

Really, I think despite being game 7 MVP. Kuerter could go to some Atlanta area summer program for rising Juniors (16 year olds), and no one would recognize him, and everyone would accept him as 16

 

[McBride11]

Does phl have any picks to staple to simmons to offload him?

 

[eddiew112]

What a fucking weekend for Celtics fans!

Not bad for an Albany NY kid.

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

Youngs shooting line will look ugly... But he filled up the Stat sheet.

I can't wait to see Young's post game act.

And the announcers are crestfallen.

 

[Ale Xander]

Philly phans love throwing things onto the playing surface

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

What a shame the Celtics were so injured all year, and COVID-riddled, and dysfunctional, and bad. Other than all that, it was there for the taking.

 

[JCizzle]

I eagerly await all the pieces about Philly fans throwing shit onto the court.

 

[EddieYost]

No one left to hate. Cheering for Hawks - Suns finals.

 

[patinorange]

So, I missed it. When did the Hawks get good?

 

[Pablo's TB Lover]

Keep being Philly, Philly.

 

[luckiestman]

PROCESSED

 

[osori]

Simmons all teary and sad-looking from the bench. Awwww.

 

[luckiestman]

So, I missed it. When did the Hawks get good?

Not sure they are, lol.

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

No one left to hate. Cheering for Hawks - Suns finals.

Yup.

 

[heavyde050]

Sixers and Nets both out. Great weekend for the Eastern Conference for this C’s fan.

 

[mikeot]

Sixer Schafenfreude!

 

[luckiestman]

I want Bucks/Suns and Suns to win

Holy Shit.

 

[BigMike]

Someone will take him, and give up value for it

Didn't miss a shot, not bad

 

[RedOctober3829]

What a great moment for Trae Young.

 

[radsoxfan]

Does phl have any picks to staple to simmons to offload him?

Shhhhhh. If you even suggest he is not a top 25 player or might not be worth his contract people here will become very upset.

Nevermind he can't even be allowed on the floor in the last 5 minutes of a close game. Or that he refuses wide open dunks for fear someone might be able to foul him.

LOL

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Just be a 3 or 5 seed in the East and you advance.

 

[Pablo's TB Lover]

Simmons put on his tshirt over the jersey awfully fast for his walk off the court!

Good win @Conigliaro's Potential

 

[Buster Olney the Lonely]

Red Velvet gets the post game interview. This is amazing.

 

[54thMA]

"We've got a young locker room".........says the guy who looks 12.

 

[osori]

If you are a GM of a tanking team, do you try gambling on Simmons here? His price must be all-time low.

 

[soxhop411]

So does PHI fire Rivers? He did the same thing last season with the clippers. And the Clippers were killed by the press for firing him since doc was “not the problem”

 

[koufax32]

Whoever wins now will be a fantastic story that will result in me being happy for their fans and players. I still have an old Barkley Suns jersey from junior high so I guess I’ll cheer for them.

[luckiestman]

Hawks team reminds me a lot of Cs team that beat Wiz with Heurter playing the Kelly role

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Someone on Reddit called Huerter a pre pubescent Brian Scalabrini.

 

[RedOctober3829]

My popcorn is ready for inside the nba.

 

[BigMike]

What a shame the Celtics were so injured all year, and COVID-riddled, and dysfunctional, and bad. Other than all that, it was there for the taking.

So say about 9 teams in the East

Even the Hawks are missing a key piece

 

[DeadlySplitter]

This is the first time neither 1 seed made the conference finals since 1994.

 

[54thMA]

I'd like to see Atlanta win the whole thing for Tony C and that city in general, talk about a barren sports landscape.
