[Carlin] Doc Rivers reminded the #Sixers today that the Celtics were in this same position last season. Boston lost a Game 5 at home in a 2-2 series, then went to Milwaukee and beat the Bucks in Game 6 and rolled in Game 7 at home. He wants his team to guard against that.

> Doc Rivers on the @sixers’ mentality ahead of Game 6:
>“You can’t get too comfortable. Period. In the playoffs, there’s no such thing as comfort. I’ve never heard the words comfort and playoffs together. They just don’t go together.”
It’s been a popular talking point today for Bostonians, I can tell you that much
Yeah ending it in 6 is so important. Don’t let it go to a Game 7 where anything can happen.
That said, Boston looked pretty defeated and I don’t know that they have the stones like last years team did.
perfect. don’t get too high, don’t get too low. massive opportunity tomorrow. this boston team has shown time and time again that they crack under pressure. we gotta step up and take them out in 6.
Gotta hand it to him doc has been redeeming himself a bit, don’t fuck it up
I think I trust James in G6 now? This is wild. I pray we bring that hustle from the G5 in the first quarter again.
ain’t nobody understands what it feels like to choke away advantage like doc
just needs to coach one more good game and maxey needs to show up one more time
They need to look at tomorrow as Game 7. Too many missed opportunities over the years. The Celtics know what it takes to win these games and unfortunately the Sixers know way too much about how to let them slip through their hands. Lock the fuck in and get over this hump.
please ingrain this in them, no complacency
Just dominate tomorrow. I know Doc has our guys in the right mindset
Keep ‘em humble, doc.
Rent’s due.
Thank you Doc
PJ better be yelling at everyone all day today
So he told them not to play with their meat
After seeing two terrible game 7s, I don’t want to see another with this team. Get it done and get Harden out to Vegas
And TNT reminded us like a million times last night that game 5 winners in a 2-2 series go on to win the series 82% if the time.
big if true
Playoff opponents hate this one simple trick
You tell ‘em doc
Listen. I will deal with 3 more years of Doc is he master classes a finals win. I’ll even say he should be a hof coach. Just please it’s all I’m asking
Job’s not finished.
