Fr the “charge” on Embiid was so clearly a block and the push off is the most baffling cuz the ref was staring right at it. They were terrible for the 6ers game 1 too
@@trysephiroth007 simple to draw up a better play to get Brown or Tatum the ball rather than Marcus Smart on both plays it's basketball knowledge it's a rookie mistake by our coach
Boston needs to get their offense going around 5 seconds earlier than what they did on that last possession. If you leave Philly 8 seconds to work with you live with it, if it’s a tie game that’s different but give yourself a chance at a rebound putback or the chance to foul and get another possession when your down.
Yea, that last possession was a failure by the whole Boston coaching staff. Looked like they still had two time outs to work with, why not use one and set something up. Boston still got a good look, but like you said took too long and it cost them.
Imagine missing the game winning bucked in regulation then making the game winning bucket in overtime but the shot was late. Great game Celtics. Great game Philly. Next game bout to get real physical.
Joel is struggling to move with that leg brace, but he's still going for it! But James....my man. Strippers at clubs all across America were cheering tonight! Bonuses coming soon! Go, Beard! Still got it, baby. Keep it rolling!
The final shot by Boston, had it been counted, would be a heartbreaker and virtually series-ending for Philadelphia. The video review showed that when 0.0 struck, the ball was not yet released. Great game by Harden!
So you called a charge on embiid where smart was clearly still sliding but you won't call a push-off by Tatum where his right hand clearly extended and a clear push off on Maxey? Got it ref. Got it.
Tbh if Philly get by Boston I hope they go all the way. Harden really probably the best scorer I ever seen in my life. His play style so awkward it cant be stopped. He need him one to boost that legend status, he definitely a long time great💤💤💤💤

Incredible how it had to go to a possibly game-deciding review following an even more incredible shot by James after the reigning MVP caused the double-team to crash the Celtics defense!
Celtic's was like give us this illegal bucket just like you let us do what we want all game and called no fouls. The refs was like no this would get me fired the camera have too much information on that play 😂
Game 4: Celtics-115 (buzzert beater lates while counted) 76ers-116 (Wins in game 4) Celtics player number 36 tries to shoot in 10 seconds but the buzzert beater sounds while counted but that means it was officially late
4:07 First mistake by the Celtics: Joe Mazzulla should've called a timeout to talk about the final play. 4:10 Should've attacked the rim or call a timeout. 4:13 Should've attacked the rim once you get the ball, Jayson Tatum. 4:18 Should've taken the shot where you just need a two or draw a foul. The Sixers had no timeouts and they have to throw the ball the length of the court! 4:20 Way too late from Marcus Smart for the trey. No basket. Game over. Sixers win.
Now this is clear as clean water. 76ers changes depend on Harden he has demostrated in this series that when he plays confident, he is that dude. I just hope he continue to play freely because as good as Embiid is, now we know what Boston defense can do on him with the double team and with Maxey at the ring. To me Boston is the best team in this year playoffs and we are looking at them eyes to eyes. So, the winner of this series can easily be the NBA Champions.
a lot depends on the health of Embid, he looked hurt and tired here. Philly have to find a way to have Harden free to shoot but not pressured to shoot like in Houston where he has to score min 36 or they lose.
@@redman6790 I am a fan of Philly and as happy as I can be for the win, I can tell you that I would feel much safer in the shoes of a Boston fan. To me, the Celtics seem decidedly superior and are heavily favored, they have better players and a fluid game.
I saw this live and although I was disappointed by the result, it was still an incredible game and didn’t shake my confidence in the C’s ability to eventually close out the 76ers.
sometimes you just let them play rather than risk an inbound violation specially with that much time remaining. most only call timeout for a play if there's like 5secs or less remaining
@@Eythora94 it depends to the coach wether if he wants to call for a timeout or not, you're right sometimes you just let them play and trying to avoid inbound violations, though there are some coaches that instead of letting their players to make their own play they want to make sure that they call for a timeout to make it clear to the team that here's the play that we are gonna do, reminding their boys tha we only have this time, making sure that the ball will be inbound successfully, in basketball or any sports it happens even veteran coaches sometimes they make wrong decisions but a good coach will stand on his feet no matter what

MVP Embiid has to become a monster in Game 5 or it's over for them. Maxxey needs to step on the gas too. They can't slow down the pace because that's when Boston strikes hard.
Tatum doesn’t like when he’s the sidekick 🤣 bro had Jaylen wide open cutting to the basket and throws it out to smart in 4th and then does the same exact thing in OT 🤣🤦🏽♂️ I feel like Jaylen Brown would be a beast without JT
Holy shit Celtics sold so hard in the final minutes of the 4th and OT! - Smart couldn't make an open 3 to win the game in regulation, - Brown helped off an ON-FIRE HARDEN at the corner to double Embiid while C's up 2 with less than 24s left, - After, C's down 1pt with 2 (TWO!!!) timeouts left in the final 18s, Smart waste 10s on clock just to get the ball to Tatum for an ISO. 🤦♂️ Sixers (especially Harden) played extremely well in the clutch but can't deny that Celtics sold HARD as well. 😅
