GM7: Philadelphia at Boston


Recommended Posts

Philly doesn't stand a chance against Miami with or without Bosh. This will probably only be the only time I ever root for Boston. At this point I'll be happy if any team but the Heat win the title.

You would rather watch a boring ass finals series than potentially watch Thunder vs. Heat? I mean you can hate the Heat, but as a fan of basketball, when your team is already done, the best you can hope for is an exciting finals match up between two teams who haven't won that many titles. I don't know about you, but watching the Spurs, or Lakers win like every other year is getting kind of old.

Yeah no kidding, we don't stand a chance. ESPN has been pumping this narrative out all week. But why do people seem to think Boston does? They are about to play game 7 with us and have looked awful in the process. Realistically, Heat should not have a problem with either.

if they had Avery Bradley it could be an interesting series. without him, the only thing they can do is exploit KG and Bass against the Miami bigs(something Indiana stopped doing). i still think Philly would have a good chance against Miami compared to everyone else in the east

 

unfortunately i won't be able to watch this

Won't be able to watch...honestly though, it's a toss up. With Bradley's injury, maybe this is just the 76ers luck continuing.

 

I still think Boston has the best chance at Miami, so I'm going to root for them. This should be a close game though.

LeBron and Wade help make up for the fact they have no bigs with their recovery speed and athleticism, makes it difficult to take advantage of a weakness in a D, especially if they know what that weakness is...

Philly has just as much a chance against Miami as Boston does. They can put Iggy on Lebron and that would wear him out over a series. They need an answer for Wade but im not sure who else they have that could contain him, Evan Turner? Jrue Holliday will also have a pretty good matchup with Chalmers.

 

If Miami had Bosh theyd be the easy favorites. I just hope anyone but Boston wins, still hate them the most.

Bomani Jones (and others) are suggesting that the NBA should fix this game so Boston wins. Ugh. The fact that this is even being discussed is pretty sad. I am already prepared for Boston to get the benefit of pretty much every call, just because it's game 7, they are at home, and they have big names. It'll be interesting. Seems like pretty much everything is lining up against us.

Why is it such a sure thing? We have beaten them three times this series. Wouldn't surprise me at all if Boston wins big, but I don't understand why everyone is writing us off so easily. Not like Boston is up 3-0 in the series or anything. Clearly the Sixers are capable of beating them.

I really hope Philly uses some of this stuff as motivation, nobody really respects the Sixers and they never will until we do something big.

 

 

Damn I wish I wasn't working till 10...
