[Im Still Ballin]

76ers in 5.

I'd be surprised if we don't get swept, we're too small of a team to contain Embiid

Not really fussed but would be ecstatic if we could steal a game or 2

If the sixers win here and lose in the second round, it will be the same story for embiid all over again.

I have fourkicks44/GOBB coming away with the sweep though manny98 might sneak in a win here or there.

[Jasper]

Gobb would like a sweep / but Nets get under their skin

6'ers in 6

There would be nothing more unsurprising or on brand for the Sixers if they come out slow and sluggish and got blown out at home in this first game.

That being said they really should try to make a statement and end this in 4, get some rest and hope for the unlikely situation of Tre f'ckin Boston around and stealing a game or two.

Nets won't lie down easy tho, that is for sure. Bridges and Claxton won't need any extra motivation for this one.

[Real Men Wear Green]

Whoever chose to play that song at ESPN needs to be punished.

[Manny98]

Good D but can't secure a rebound for shit

[Proctor]

The world is about to see how good Bridges is.

Meanwhile Playoff Harden is trash

[Manny98]

Refs ain't calling Hardens bullshit

This ain't the regular season no more buddy

Done a good job on Embiid so far

[fourkicks44]

Looks like playoff PJ has finally showed up to earn that pay check.

[Manny98]

Tucker is such a difference maker

[fourkicks44]

Yeah feels like the Sixers have had more offensive rebounds this quarter than the rest of the season combined.

By far the biggest weakness of the team, rebounding in general has been their achilles heel.

[fourkicks44]

Doc going super deep into his bench in that 1st quarter.

Interesting. Dunno if that will last, still feeling things out it seems.
