It was back and forth all night, but it took a monster 50-point performance from Joel Embiid to beat the Celtics. Jayson Tatum couldn’t step up with Jaylen Brown out as he dropped 19 points.

im seeing this game as all great things we kept it to within two could have won while one of our stars were out and the other had a lack luster while the other teams star was ballin out this a sign that philly aint really a competitor to us
marcus smart sucks. never has there been an athlete whose skill and ego are in such wildly inverse proportion to each other. just another game he chooses to play hero ball late in the 4th.
The rest of this season doesn't matter now. Bucks beat Wizards anyway so that effectively ended any chance of finishing top. Sixers too far behind. 2nd place is confirmed. Just rest the key players and bring on the playoffs.
1 MVP candidate stepped up while the other didn't
Some May say Embiid is MVP, I like him but not sure he's the material! Some say, it's Jokic he stood pact the entire season with and without help actually making his team better that nights when he don't have rhythm does other things for the TEAM to have a chance at winning still… WAIT that sounds like TATUM nuh!!! #TeamBall #RealMVP was shown tonight and its not out of Philly! The CELTICs started resting and coasting after All Stars because they DO NOT want to feel gassed at the end when they need it the most like last season! I know they are focused!
