What a bunch of losing basketball players Philly has. That makes me so frustrated.

Now look at this from Philly's perspective. You had probably your franchise's biggest game in decades, a close-out against a current nemesis and historical rival at home, the other team's best player shot 4 of 18, and you still couldn't get it done.

I’ll give Tatum his due, he could’ve completely folded mentally. Those 3 threes were daggers

I've seen better end-of-game possessions in a 12 year old YMCA game.

Quite the meltdown from Philly.

They gave up down 8 with 1:30 to go.

Another big playoff game and Jim Harden disappears in the 4th.

It's just old hat at this point tbh

If you can’t win a close out game when Tatum goes 5 for 21, you deserve all the shite that comes your way

Absolutely clutch win by the Cs. This team continues to deliver with their backs against the wall.

Tatum with a dud for three quarters but a masterpiece finish.

Might as well bring Ben Simmons back for gm 7. It's all over.

Boston is winning Game 7. You just felt like that was Philly’s wide open opportunity to end it. Not it’s on the road in that crazy Boston arena. Sheesh they better have some mental fortitude

Well when you have Harden going 4/16 (0/6 from 3) from the field with 5 turnovers, that’s also why they’ll deserve it.

As much fun as watching the fallout of another Celtics playoff elimination combined with Bill Simmons losing his fricking mind would’ve been, we still have a slim chance of a Lakers/Celtics Finals with #18 on the line

What a treat that would be for us fans

Embiid has always been way overhyped. It was dumb when they drafted him amd had to wait like 3 years to get him on the court, only to have him get injured basically every year for nearly a decade.

Just such an underachieving and poorly run team and organization from the top down. As someone with family in amd from Philly, it's infuriating.

Shoukd have beat the Bucks and won a title a few years back but Embiid choked again just like he did against the LeBron when he could have finished the Cavs one year.

And I think Embiid choked against the Raptors too one year. I lose track of all the choking.

Harden has been a joke for damn near a decade going back to OKC.

Never doubted for a second that Boston would win this game, even before it started.

Well that's retarded. He's clearly the best player from that draft and every team in the league would rather the payoff that is him over having full 82 from any other player in that draft.
