2021-22 Sixers Thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
Maxey had a great start. The Beard is looking pretty good. Danny Green is stroking it. Tobias has been so-so. And Embiid looked good most of the time. Paul Reed is playing hard during JoJo's 1st break, but the Sixers do not look as dangerous with him on the bench.
And Maxey took over the game and scored 38 with 21 of those points in the 3rd quarter. How do you do that? He was unstoppable. Harris also put in 26. This was a good team effort. Harden played well and Jojo didn’t need to put in 40. Toronto has good shooters but didn’t match up well tonight at least.

@jmorovich -- are you taking one for the team/fans 2nite, and not watching the game? 
tie game with 27.2 sec. left, 95-95. Sixers inbounding the ball. They have never lead in the game.

good grief. Embiid takes a 3-pt shot with @ 7 sec left (why?). Tobias gets the rebound and shoots from the side of the basket with @ 2 sec left, and misses. (I don't know if anyone in the league has ever missed more shots from within 5 feet than Tobias. smh) So, we're going OT.
@Tom McAndrew I watched from beginning to end!! The curse doesn’t have a passport so I didn’t think I had to worry about costing us this series.@jmorovich -- are you taking one for the team/fans 2nite, and not watching the game?

lol. or, the curse hasn't been vaccinated, so it couldn't travel to Toronto.
I'm not aware that I have any type of curse with the Sixers. However, I'm going to miss G4, as I'll be at the Blue-White game. Hopefully, the Sixers can wrap up the series in G4.
That was really a dagger through Toronto’s hearts. They got every call and still choked it up on a last second miracle 3 pointer from the big man. There is no way they come back and win 4 straight now to take this series. Embid = MVP
