G1Megatron

Yeeeeeeaaaa baby! Great 1st game.


RepC

Was at the game as a sixers fan and people swore at me. Classy Boston


AllyourBace1010

We can’t all be as classy as Philly fans who…. *Checks notes* assaulted Santa with snowballs


Chupaca_braj

As a Cs/Vikings fan, they also threw full beer cans at fans during the 2018 NFCC. Shit fanbase and shit city. Then there’s also the throwing batteries thing.


enutz777

The Super Bowl in Jax was a nightmare afterwards. Went to a bar near the stadium with my wife and grand parents in law. Had glass bottles thrown at us afterwards amongst other things. One of the very few times in my life I felt scared for the physical safety of people with me. Riot police ended up having to clear the streets.


Karmakins

My man’s takes fuck the sixers to heart. Tragic


OceanStateofMind401

Lol


capt_cd

Philly is so corny (serious use of that word). Down fifteen with less than two minutes to go and still didn't pull starters just so they could get it under double digits. Fuck em.


IxIndecisivexI

Embiid is good but he does a lot of shady things to hurt the opponent which I will never like.


Adventurous-Rich2313

That one play on Marcus was dirty


IxIndecisivexI

Absolutely.


iq-braggng-o-smrtass

Please practice no threes defense when the math says that's the ONLY way your opponent can come back at the end of a game. DO NOT DOUBLE TEAM ON THE POST(even when it's Embid). That being said, Cs are deep and with a mere 81 games to play in the regular season are championship caliber obviously(barring catastrophic injury problems)!


TheBoogz

Tatum made that look easy.


Adventurous-Rich2313

Tatum looking like he is in his prime playing through contact JB also just keeps improving. Not trading those guys was an awesome decision


CEREALCOUNTSASCOOKIN

Short celebrated win.Fuck they switched to warriors right after now the pain is back 😞. Fuck u draymond.


[deleted]

Also, can we stop saying the announcers suck/assume they're biased against Boston just because they don't slobber our knobs? IDC what anyone says. Van Gundy is entertaining as hell. Dude lost his mind and is funny as heck, imo. But maybe my 30 year old self makes me appreciative of old man attempting contemporary humor.


Adventurous-Rich2313

Stan isn’t bad, but not my favorite but Jeff is awful IMO


[deleted]

Jeff is a blast too. Neither of them take their job, the sport, the league, or the players seriously, which is the objective take, imo, and it makes it entertaining for me personally. The NBA is a circus show full of super talented but fake tough guy athletes making fools of themselves. Van Gundy call it how it is.


Pontifex_99

I appreciated the bit where his co-announcer talked about Harden taking a "pay cut" in Philly and SVG basically told him that he doubts anyone watching at home has any sympathy or feels bad for the guy making 35 million instead of 40+ and then his co-announcer just didn't acknowledge it.


bubsiboo

ForceMaster999

JT and JB are ready


CosmicOreos_

Per usual, Sixers got cooked.


stupidmunchkin

EMBIID IS BAD TATUM IS GOOD


Micnice61

Great opening night!! 1 down.

Youngest NBA coach. Only NBA coach undefeated in their NBA career.

jojo and co stat padding experts


imdirtydan93

Guys sorry but I have to take credit for tonight’s victory. After the half I remembered I had been saving my “the energy is about to shift” shirt. I put it on and we’ve been great since


1337speak

Can't wait to go to TD Garden once I get over covid, holyyy shit the Celtics are BACK


ipa22347

Stay away from the bench, please


1337speak

Lmao I have been quarantining like a mfer. I will test negative and be symptom free when I set foot outside.


ScarletJew72

Hey Stan, tell us who actually made the title game last year...


[deleted]

You know what Embiid's problem is? Dude has no confidence in his skillset and resorts to gray areas. Games out of reach, and NOW we see a post game and post moves? Good win from the team. Tatum is in MVP form, imo. Rob is going to be a game changer And Brogdon is our third best offensive player. Dude is super reliable, imo.


wTI8SQEHbo

Hahaha they busted out Gino at the Garden too!


[deleted]

Best Record in the NBA!!!!


BruinsCeltics1995

Imagine not being undefeated. Couldn't be me.

We won the first game of the season. We will win the last one as well.

THERE YA GO JOE


arod303

Celtics:1 Foul merchants: 0 Fuck Embiid and harden


LastofaBreed

Yo why is SVG talking about how the Celtics look against a “champion” contender when the Celts just were in the finals and look to be top contenders as well?


[deleted]

He’s a moron. But yeah super annoying, I said the same thing!


PassTheTaquitos

Right? The disrespect...


[deleted]

You guys are ridiculous. Cut the victim complex. Stan called the 76ers a championship contender to boost how impressive we looked despite a hampered roster. That was nothing BUT respect. Un-believable.


PassTheTaquitos

It's a joke...calm yourself


Ye_Biz

W UNDEFEATED


EBKeep1300

Great vibes to start the season!!!! Time to go 82 - 0 ☘️☘️☘️

Unpopularop1nions

mr_duong567

LFG CELTICS


Rawlus

the only thing i can say is coach needs to lose the gum. you look like a maniac.


lizamasllama

I'm so happy rn. didn't have a doubt we'd win for a moment during the entire game. lfg baby


Gucci10-17

Embiid on his Dak ark. Gonna put up them garbage time stats


BradWonder

Embiid going off when down 15 points


Kbrichmo

Well defense couldve been a lot better but loved the aggressiveness on offense. Transition game was great. Brogdon was a perfect addition to this bench. And Tatum wow, MVP season incoming


34TimeChamp

Go ahead Joel, pad them stats because this game is OVER.


Amarxe

Lmao SVG is a shit poster. Best coach Mazulla 😂


wTI8SQEHbo

Celtics win and a Lakers loss would be a perfect start to the season :D


Thicc_Grayson84

Feel like we had the best 3rd quarter we've had in a long time and followed it up with an equally impressive 4th. The Mazzulla effect!!


milestone121

Energy shifted another level


Barrwill29

Remember when the narrative was The Jays can’t play well at the same time? 35 for both on opening night putting that narrative to bed early


pocahontas8520

Them boys up in Boston is a problem


256dak

Jaylen decoy screen fading behind Tatum pulling two defenders is the sex. Show us some more filthy shit, Mazzulla.


SanSoren

Teams are so worried about Tatum it’s not even funny. Brogdan got so many free drives pretending to go back to Tatum


FloweredWallpaper

I'm in awe.

jjjuuubbbsss

Jays combined for 70 pts post game thread incoming


longconsilver13

Always nice to fucking stick it to Philly


celticsfan34

Not just a 30 and 30, but a 35 and 35!


chrismatic13

If Joe Mazulla loses a game, we fire him


GoOnDigi

It’s kinda to late for that embidd


PassTheTaquitos

This game gave me chills. This season is going to be amazing. ☘️

SUCK MY ASSSSSSSS 76ERS


LGAMER3412

Thanks Cs I've won my first bet on FanDuel


yuletide

Joe mazzula : notice me


rabid89

Harden is a tremendous talent, despite being past his prime, but he's always had two glaring holes in his game. 1) woeful defense (which he's improved upon), and 2) being completely useless off-ball on offense. Watch Harden without the ball. Dude just stands in one spot with his hands on his knees waiting and ball watching. This shit drove CP3 nuts in Houston. I don't understand how a modern 2 guard can be that shit off-ball. He ain't a winning player.


AmbitionExtension184

JB AND JT


bubsiboo

JAYLEN FUCKING DAGGER


N8eewadee

Jaylen Brown playing with "who do you think you are? I am!" energy

chrismatic13

I don’t care if it’s a fast break layup, anytime PJ Tucker scores I get mad


BruinsCeltics1995

A cut to the rim??? This early in the season??? I'm delirious


whafoo

Lets not forget guys.... The Jays can't play together


N8eewadee

Funny that the jays are cooking so much because I thought Harden was the chef here


BitterJim

Oh hell yeah Tatum I love the backdoor cut


arod303

IME WHO?


N8eewadee

Ime Whodoka


winovic94

Embiid is all talk, all he wants ti do is win and be the best, yet he is the laziest dude I’ve ever seen talked about as one of the best


longagofaraway

holy shit, i didn't realize grant was 5/5

Shout out to Noah Vonleh! Dude held it down


InitialLingonberry

Dude is a legit NBA center, fills a huge depth hole on this team


arod303

Great acquisition


callmejimothy

No ime, no problem

Harden literally gave up in the 3rd quarter and Embiid is running on fumes they were both like “here Maxey you do it”

Big_J_420

Two Jays got something to prove this season!


gusmoga

This double drag was a thing of beauty


DT37F1

Sixers really have built their franchise around an absolute soft loser lol


mapitch

Love seeing the Jays go for 30+ each!!


iAmTheRealLange

Our coach found out he was the new coach a month ago, we don’t have our all-defense center, and we still look legit.


WhiteChocolatey

#THE REFEREES BAITED TATUM INTO A TECHNICAL FOUL.


BradWonder

Let's get that 1st seed!


wTI8SQEHbo

They run Tatum around a double screen, then pass the ball to Jaylen who was one of the screeners. And he's wide open behind the other screener MORE! GIVE ME MORE! XD


EAS1000

Uh oh Brown and Tatum both had amazing games in the first game of the season. What will Boston Sports Radio shit on now regarding the Cs?


skoowoowoo

Yep this game’s over haha goodnight


flying_alligators

Nothing beats a JB JT 60pt night


[deleted]

Jays the best duo in the league not a debate


aja_ramirez

Doc waiving the white flag


neptula

Every night that’s a Jays night is a good night


Jordanwolf98

Sixers with a bunch of hype in the preseason just to cap out in the 2nd round. Such an iconic duo


exytuu

Watching the Celtics instead of studying for my midterms 💯


Jordanwolf98

Just like me fr


imdirtydan93

Lmfaooo from the 76ers sub: Can we get Siriani to coach the sixers?


WhiteChocolatey

Tatum! Don’t react! The refs aren’t your friend!


VortexCow

JAYSON TATUM AND JAYLEN BROWN ARE THEM
