Playoffs have clearly shown the Al Horford is the MVP of Boston. If was obvious during the early win streak as well. His spacing passing and defensive rotatiobs make Boston go.His ability also to punish switches and mismatches on the post also buy them crucial points when they cant get a bucket.


I’ve also noticed how NBA players dont know how to throw the ball to the post when the defender fronts.

Also when he’s at the 5 it pulls Embiid way out of his comfort zone.

Personally I don't overreact to two-game samples. Boston has a fierce homefield advantage though.

I'm pretty sure LeBron got us numb to 40 point games on 65% shooting now

Role players always play better at home

Folks forgot Bucks dipped Boston in 7game water, yet Phila can't win their Homegames?

Looks like another 7game Series if Phila can't steal one in Boston.

Folks forget that the Bucks lost the series. No one is saying it is going to be a sweep, but no chance the Sixers win 4 straight.

Didn’t know dr. J did an interview where he said the 6ers prolly should’ve picked Tatum. That’s gotta hurt a lil bit.

Dudes in here were laughing at me months ago when I said Horford was the Celts most valuable player.

i also said this to people. he does A LOT of key stuff for these guys

When Boston loses by double digits in Philly the next two games we’ll see what the vibe is like in here.

Yea, this definitely won't age well.

People laughed at that? He's the majority of the reason the Hawks have had the success they did in the past.

Ever since he extended his game to the 3 point line he's been frustratingly good to play against.

 

[D StaXX]

I hope Mitchell scores 0 points just so this thread can implode

#MyROY would never let that happen.

That’s the perfect description

Need some good ol Rockets/Harden/CP0 slander tonight to keep this energy going.

Listened to the new Bill Simmons Pod with Lifetime Lebron Stalker Brian Windhorst & was pleasantly surprised to hear them fairly Judge Lebrons ability to make teammates better.. Actually unbiased & pointed out just how difficult of a job that can be for a lot of players.

Also I hope this calms the philly hype a bit, & My God Toronto is trash but what can i say when these guys are your "leaders"

 

[dman14]

just seen the highlights. not sure if lebron or dirk with all them fadeaways
toronto done goof'd by getting that 1 seed.

Definitely seems like it. Damn near perfect fit, glue guy that ends up in positives and literally does everything every game. Always been one of the more underrated players in the league.

Toronto taking the next two in Cleveland.

Watch.

Dudes were defending Draymond being a All Star but were killing Horford for making it
