I don’t complain about officiating because we benefit as much as we’re harmed. But the NBA is so damn ridiculous.

They don't call the offensive foul Smart was trying to draw on Embiid - fine, that's borderline. But then they say it's a foul on Smart because Embiid chose to drive and jump where Smart was laying on the ground, adding insult to injury.

The Harden no touch foul
The double T
and Embiid stepping on Marucs to earn a foul (possible charge)
Are all so absurd



Thank goodness JT showed up. LFG

That was a fun 1st half. Love seeing Tatum have a great 1st half.

But man, NBA officials are awful.

We need Brogdon and White to stop sucking, and Rob needs to thoroughly wash his hands to get the bacon grease off them. Jaylen is going to play angry this half.

I was about to say that I haven't seen Embiid miss a foul shot ... then he missed a foul shot.

Offense still not all that smooth---great individual play from JT and JB, but not getting a lot of drive and dish, and the overall shooting isnt' great from the rest of the lineup.

If you're philly, you worry that the offense pretty much became Embiid grifting and that's probably not sustainable....Celts D really locked in second quarter on the rest.

I keep expecting the refs ease up as the game goes on, but who knows in this league.

I thought second quarter it was really good. They had tons of goos looks.
