Comments from the Other Side - 76ers Game 4 4/26/26

  Great win!  I love Payton Pritchard!!!  It was funny how before the game it was all how Embiid was the GOAT and would make the difference and get them a win.  Then afterwards, they were wanting to trade him and he was slow and lost the game.  Love how many Celtics fans were there.  Sixers fans insulting the Celtics and calling them names and wishing injury on them is terrible.  Hopefully the Celtics close this out in 5.  My favorites are in bold. ...

Comments from the Other Side - 76ers 4/24/26

 Sixers fans are funny.   I think they may hate their own players more than they do the Celtics.  It's also funny how one will hater on the announcers while another wants them for every game.  Personally, I wasn't a fan.  Also funny how some feel that Embiid coming back will win them the series while others realize that if he does come back he will be rusty and will likely be limited.  They are always going to hate Tatum since they took Fultz 2 picks before h...

Comments from the Other Side - 76ers Game 2 4/21/26

The Celtics took their foot off the gas and got beat because of it.  Allowing the 76ers to shoot almost 49% from 3 shows the Celtics weren't serious on defense.  Hopefully this loss wakes them up and they take care of business in the next 3 games.  Last game I thought Sixers fans were mellowing a little but this game shows they are still insufferable.  After hating and trashing their own team and coach through 1 and 3/4 games, suddenly they love their team and all the playe...

Comments from the Other Side - 76ers Game 1 4/19/26

 Great way to open the playoffs!   I love all the coach and GM envy from the Sixers fans.  Funny how in the beginning they felt Maxey better than Tatum and Brown but by the end, they think he's trash and want him traded.  Even though there is no way they would have gotten Tatum,  they will always torture themselves about taking Fultz over Tatum.  The racist comments are really getting old.  There is no basis for them.  My favorites are in bold.&nbsp...
