Embiid was fouled twice there but whatever. Still have to make that layup Joel.
With better coaching it was a tie series 2-2 at worst.
Without the rookie mistakes it was Sixers in 5.
No worries though. Celtics "stars" that come back include a guy that doesn't have knees and thinks the earth is flat. Not worried about them at all.
It will be fun when Lebron actually gets the ref respect next round and the Celtics role players revert to their mean. Rozier in particular will probably throw up about 20 bricks next series, which will be frustrating to watch.

Exactly. This was such a perfect storm. Rozier not missing from 3? Really? Sixers completely cold from 3. Young turnovers. Inexperienced playoff coach.
Celtics played over their heads and the Sixers underachieved. Damn shame too because I really think they could have won this series if they won tonight.
Oh well. First year with Jo and Ben together and they place 3rd in the conference and breeze through Rd 1! That, my friends, is a success and cause for excitement no matter how angry I am at this moment. Which is very.
