76ers a 7 point favorite on Sunday. Smells like a 76ers line.

Is Bogdanovic playing? I saw that and want to see if he is a go first

Even if he does, he is playing hurt and isn't nearly as effective.

Doc, being Doc, has likely already forgotten what Maxey brought last night, and will revert to mostly Ben, as long as he can stay out of foul trouble. I will say this though, Ben’s block of that Tre Young 3 in the 4th was extremely satisfying.

Ben is now 24-71 at 33.8%. Worst ever in playoffs for anyone taking that many free throws. 

Somehow Capela is actually a better free-throw shooter than Ben

Can shoot up a knee for a game. He has been in some high pressure situations in Europe and played well. I expect him to have a good game

It doesn't matter.  We are winning Sunday.  Joel will have the crowd and his first fathers day.  The crowd will be electric.  Getting up tomorrow and waiting until 8 for the game is gonna take forever!

I mean, make it less obvious NBA. We get it. You are desperate to make Trae Young the new Curry. But you can’t make it THIS obvious. 

Sixers got this. Game 7 with the home crowd. They won’t be beat.  
 

I think. Better not ruin my Father’s Day.

I'm in, they piss me off and have no heart two games, then make me think they could turn a corner, tomorrow who knows...

In the last two years, Doc coached teams when up by at least 16 points in the playoffs are 

11-5 or 69% winning percentage 

Rest of the league is 76-3 or  96% winning percentage 

 

Never a Doc fan in the beginning of the, man this stat is absolutely absurd and tells you everything. 

Bucks getting hosed on fouls in the first quarter.

It's 4 to 5, Nets got more. 

I like how the Brooklyn crowd just counted to show Giannis's 10 second violation at the FT line. But of course it isnt something that gets called.

I’ve timed it with the stopwatch on my phone several times and it’s always 11-11.5. They interviewed an old ref who does rules interpretation and he said they have to wait until 12.5-13 seconds to call the violation. 

Bucks really should give harden space when defending him. At this point he hasn’t shot well the last three games and his hammy bothering him and looks like his shot is always short. Only thing he’s doing well is getting fouls and getting to the line. I actually dare him to shoot with him being 4-23 from three the last 3.

Don't need lift if not shooting over a 7 foot arm.

Yeah but you can see on his shot even when holiday is guarding him and when he’s been open it’s short. That hammy is clearly affecting his shot. When they press up he just draws fouls too well and gets himself to the line where that’s the only places he’s Uber effective as a shooter. Better off with how his shooting is going to allow him to just shoot.

If you had to pick one to win the FT contest to save your life who are you taking: capela, giannis, Steven Adams or Ben. 

 

I hope they win tonight, but honestly, if they do, I think I would have preferred the Nets over the Bucks.

Do they win tonight then?

Magic 8 Ball Says "Who the F knows"

All logic says they have totally dominated at points in this series and have really only themselves to blame for there being a game 7.   They are at home.  They have the crowd, this should be an easy W.

All history of Philly sports says that they will have a lead only to see it evaporate in the 4th quarter losing on a last second half court shot and while the ball is in the air, both of Joel's legs snap in half and he is forced to retire.
