Game 1 vs. Philadelphia—Just Win

[Helmet Head]

Hahahahahababahab

 

[ragnarok725]

Wow. Every call going the other way...

 

[bohous]

bullshit

 

[djbayko]

This team is ludicrously immature. Now, they’re so talented that they may be able to overcome that and win a title. But they’re adding to the degree of difficulty because of how lazy their approach to the game is.

So would you say "This team is going nowhere"? That was the statement.

Maybe they will get bounced this round or next. But saying you know they're not going anywhere seems a little silly, especially with Embiid and the Bucks out.

 

[Ale Xander]

THATS NOT WHAT YOU ASKED TO REVIEW< YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE. HE WAS OUTSIDE

 

[8slim]

That’s the rule. Sucks but it is.

 

[OnWisc]

They literally make this shit up as they go along.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

The C's slowing the pace with a 4 point lead and 3 minutes to go is fucking idiocy. Jaylen wanted to go to the hoop, but you could see Tatum and Smart basically stopping, so he had no help and had to come back out with it. Idiocy.

 

[Buck Showalter]

block or charge...flip a coin.

Why not --- the NBA refs do

 

[Mystic Merlin]

This is gross

 

[McBride11]

Fuck off NBA

Tatum was tripped / hacked on literal last possesion. Marcus was there having a fucking picnic well outside tje line

 

[Van Everyman]

What the fuck with that call

 

[scottyno]

"We're reviewing for restricted area. But then when we see he was nowhere near it we're going to ignore that anyway"

 

[8slim]

So would you say "This team is going nowhere"? That was the statement.

I didn’t see that comment.

 

[Don Buddin's GS]

The ref said they were going to review to see if Marcus was in the circle. Then they say he didn't establish position. Fuck you refs.

 

[EddieYost]

We are gonna look for one thing, unless it doesn’t work out how we want.

 

[luckiestman]

THATS NOT WHAT YOU ASKED TO REVIEW< YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE. HE WAS OUTSIDE

seems like it’s all fair game. I thought they were just reviewing restricted area

 

[Pablo's TB Lover]

You kidding me! He was outside the circle and that is what they were checking lol

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Joe just gonna let Doc steamroll him with the refs all series.

 

[The Hideous Locust]

What a fucking screwjob.

 

[ragnarok725]

Cs need to stop the clock killing iso shit

 

[Brand Name]

I feel like if that doesn't foul Maxey hypoethcially out we don't see that as the result of the review.

 

[BaseballJones]

Back to the Tatum slow walk, initiate the offense stuff which doesn't usually work great.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Al is alive

 

[ifmanis5]

That was sweet. Good Tommy points there.

 

[Lose Remerswaal]

Big Al

 

[JCizzle]

That’s the rule. Sucks but it is.

Where is the rule on swallowing the whistle when Tatum was hacked the previous possession? They make up this shit as they go, as usual.

 

[128]

Get a fucking stop.

 

[Spelunker]

REBOUNDS

 

[Ed Hillel]

Oh NBA

 

[osori]

HOLY SHIT

 

[luckiestman]

BIGAL

 

[EddieYost]

Big Al!!!

 

[Soxaholic]

O REBs!!!

 

[Ale Xander]

DIRTY WORK AL AND MAHCUS

Smaht Awesome last 3 minutes

 

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Huge rebounds. Huge.

 

[Spelunker]

I still want Rob back in the game, though.

 

[PrometheusWakefield]

Tough to get too excited about an offensive strategy that would never, ever work with Embiid on the floor.

The C's slowing the pace with a 4 point lead and 3 minutes to go is fucking idiocy. Jaylen wanted to go to the hoop, but you could see Tatum and Smart basically stopping, so he had no help and had to come back out with it. Idiocy.

It was normal, smart play.. Philly was back on D and Jaylen didn't have help. Better to bring it back out then try to force it.

 

[8slim]

I don’t watch as much nba as I used to but we all know every possession late in a game has a bunch of fouls. Most are missed. The ones that are called are often 50/50. It’s the nba, been that way forever.

just make shots. That’s all you can do.

 

[dhellers]

Al and Marcus showing up in the 4th. That is good to see ... having 4th quarter energy

 

[Buck Showalter]

Tatum is so soft at times passing through contact
This summer when he posts a vid lifting big weight I will weep

he shits himself in tight situations.

Everyone that's objective can see it

 

[PedroKsBambino]

That’s

That’s the rule. Sucks but it is.

That’s not the rule, though—-his upper body is irrelevant, only his feet are relevant. They were clearly set. That is an atrocious call. Even the color guy mocked it

 

[bigq]

Al Horford is my hero

 

[TripleOT]

Smart is doing it all

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Someone needs to explain that replay standard of review. Why review where the defender was if you’re calling it a blocking foul anyways

 

[lars10]

Tough to get too excited about an offensive strategy that would never, ever work with Embiid on the floor.

I wonder if they would change anything if Embiid were in...

 

[mikeot]

Average!

 

[Lose Remerswaal]

I am watching in a Hookah Bar in Capistrano, the owner is a Laker fan who is charging me double for being a C's fan

 

[Spelunker]

It was normal, smart play.. Philly was back on D and Jaylen didn't have help. Better to bring it back out then try to force it.

The issue wasn't Jaylen, it was the other Cs not running.

 

[ragnarok725]

Joe just gonna let Doc steamroll him with the refs all series.

I always find this stupid. It was stupid when it was Brad too. As if spending your time whining to the refs has any effect at all.
