A Philly Special as the Celtics welcome the Sixers.

No Rob or Al tonight, who the heck is gonna guard Embid???  1st Quarter ☘️ C's are not giving me any confidence turning the ball over twice. Are we the best team or are we not. Figure it the heck out. Playing with no energy or heart right now.  Blake Griffin hits two threes!!! Back to back! He's the spark to light this fire! DWhite drives and scores! Now we are starting to play Celtics basketball. BLAKE GRIFFIN FOR HIS THIRD THREEEEEE!!!! JB and JT are no where to be found right now. Hopefully they will start their engines and get going. It's going to take a big game from them given no Rob or Al.  How do you get a five second call off a timeout???? I do not like anything about Embids game, he's a huge whiny baby. Give him a binky!  GWill hits a three, he's been very very quiet lately. Is he worried about getting traded?! Should he be traded?! I'm actually torn on that one. C's can't seem to protect this ball for the life of them. Way too many turnovers! ...

Celtics-76ers: 2021 Edition

What to expect heading into the rivals' first matchups of the season this week It's pretty well documented that the current squads of the Celtics and 76ers aren't exactly buddy-buddy. This continues a storied rivalry between the two cities, with a long history of titans of our game matching up, such as Russell vs Chamberlain and Bird vs Dr. J. Now, we get the pleasure of watching Tatum and Brown take on Embiid and Simmons. The Celtics have had Philly's number the past few seasons, putting up a 15-6 record against them since Tatum's rookie season, which includes two smack downs in the playoffs (4-1 in the 17-18 season, and a 4-0 sweep in the bubble last season). You may remember the 17-18 series for Philly dropping confetti early (in a game that the Celtics won in OT), and Marcus Morris giving Embiid the "3-0" when the two started chirping at each other. These playoff losses lead to Embiid saying "This is not a rivalry... they always kick our ass"...

The Celtics play the Spurs today - But dont miss what happened last night!

All #Celtics fans please like and share this. I was a true Al fan but when you leave to go to the #76ers I'm sorry but you ain't a friend anymore. You dont go to a rival. But if you do, please do this. pic.twitter.com/pyR5IB97Ub — Jimmy in NH (@JimmyMac257) November 9, 2019 I'm still amazed by the number of Celtics fans on social media who feel like we really miss Al Horford.  It blows my mind!  I'm not here to say he sucks.  He was a good Celtic and he was a guy I enjoyed rooting for while he was here.  But this dude was never that good......and he left to go to the enemy!  Yes the Lakers are our #1 rival but the 76ers are right behind them in 2nd place.  I hate the 76ers.  I don't like their players.  I don't like their fans.  And I dont like the way they went about trying to build a winning team by tanking.  Al going there says he never really cared about us as fans.  So why do we care about him? I don't. I'm glad he...
