Official Game Thread: 76ers at Hawks -- GAME 4

[Diesel]

Great win. 

I was mad at the officials tonight.   How many travels will they miss?  How long does Dwight Howard get to camp in the lane?  Dwight Howard had tent, sleeping bags, fishing gear, and a fire starter.   How much will they let Shake Milton use his left arm to push off as he dribbles with the right?  One play, he looked like the Heisman trophy.   Same thing with Harris?

Game 5 is going to be tough. I still feel like we our shots have to fall at some point. We have been shooting like crap.

Curry's OBVIOUS push offs are egregious for a guy incapable of getting separation.

We have to get that feel that we had in game 1.

Yeah... I forgot that point. .... I'm watching saying... you can't push off to make space... what are these refs doing.   On  one play, the travel was so bad that Trae said something and got a tech. 

When the whole crowd sees the infraction... the refs got to call it.

I heard Jim Jackson say...

"Heurter was fouled... well, you got to play through"

So even the announce team sees the foul and basically tell us that we shouldn't expect calls.

Trae had 18 assists to 2 turnovers. 9 dimes to 1 turnover is ridiculous. Right statheads? 

Not sure who it was that said what they wanted from Trae more than averaging 30+ points was to become Chris Paul. Ok, check. What next?

No matter what happens in Philly on Wednesday, game 6 will be in Atlanta on Friday. 
No matter what happens in game 5, game 6 will definitely be a must win.

State Farm is going to be rocking

40% three point shooting and more off-ball movement please.

_{DPOY too. I might be being greedy.}

The biggest thing about today's W is that it shifts ALL of the preassure back on Philly. That game 5 is basically the series for them if they drop it.

Don’t wake me up. Tonight I wanna dream about a steal in Philly and a closer back in Atlanta on Friday while it’s rockin!

Didn't like that tap-on-the-back "foul" with 6 seconds left by Thybulle. Shouldn't have been called, given the context of what is ordinarily called. Rather, Trae conceivably may have been able to dodge chasers for another 3-5 seconds given how otherwise alone he was on the court. Will be interested to see how the NBA 2-minute review sees it.

TS does his radio interview every Tuesday morning. Last Tuesday Reddish was extremely close, so what is he now? I'm curious to see what he will say.

Not an oddsmaker but I’m gonna say Vegas says Sixers -6.5 for game 5 on Friday. Just a hunch prediction on the line. 
 

[Sothron]

I'm almost terrified at how biased the refs will be game 5. If anyone even looks at Embiid it is going to be a foul.

[bleachkit]

Dont be afraid to give OO about 15 to 20 minutes. I like what I saw from him.

[Diesel]

I give OO Credit, he showed up and played well tonight.   His energy is important. 

 

We gonna Act like JC didn't do work in the third?
