I mean he was in Vegas.I think the extra rest helped Harden out A LOT.
Yeah, a 32-pt lead in the 4th means it’s Blake Griffin time.Please sit Rob. Save his legs.
Indeed. You could see the difference in the C's intensity level from the first possession.The scoring is one thing. The D is the real story - it was sublime.
Or Kornet even .By the way - this is a game where Blake could play. Maybe over TimeLord?!
This is everything. I feel like Bill Belichick would spend 100% of tomorrow's walkthrough showing defensive highlights and jus saying "if you do this every night, you get a ring. Do your job"The scoring is one thing. The D is the real story - it was sublime.
You ever hear of the Combat Zone?I mean he was in Vegas.
The real issue for Harden is that there are no good strip clubs in Boston. His powers are quickly waning.
Game 1 defense (intensity) left a lot to be desired but the game would have been a win if not for the TOs.I think this is the key more than the defense. I mean Philly has missed a bunch of easy shots and some free throws, and Harden had two threes basically go all the way down before coming back up. They easily could have like a dozen more points right now without batting an eye. But the way Boston is taking care of the ball….just beautiful.
Last quarter there was a play Tucker whined about not getting a foul call on a rebound attempt and Grant basically shushed him. Good little trash talk moment to signal that his head and energy are fully onboard despite sitting much of R1.Very much enjoying Grant’s “Not Sucking” phase.
I think he’s just a bit out of shape, probably why coach left him in a bit.Time Lord is limping up the court, it appears.
Unfortunately, no.So did Mazzulla spend yesterday learning how to coach?
JB has been great at this, he's so physical up top that he can fight through.It kind of feels like it’s as simple as switching less.
Like, if the top defenders commit to staying on the top players, that little bit of it being harder for Maxey/Harden makes a big difference. They aren’t getting the freebie looks tonight because we’re actually guarding the perimeter.
And Embiid keeping thing sslowwwwwww helps.
YouTube University has some really comprehensive tutorialsSo did Mazzulla spend yesterday learning how to coach?
Mazzulla is a Facebook friend. Should I PM him?Think the board has voted, someone text CJM to pull TL
Yeah he is moving like a geriatricTin Woodman.Right now, I have to say I prefer the Sixers with their MVP than without…
