Damn Philly! Fans go in on the Sixers, on Twitter, for choking against the Celtics, Ben Simmons vanishing again, and going down 0-3 without Kyrie and Hayward … AND THEY DROPPED CONFETTI!!! #BosvsPHI #76ers

Alright, so this one kinda goes two different ways. On one hand, yeah, the Sixers definitely choked against the Celtics. At the same time, though, the Sixers are a young team that may have really overachieved, in the playoffs.

In the modern NBA, it’s rare for a team to win more than one playoff series, in their first playoff run. It says enough that Ben Simmons isn’t even the Sixers’ scoring leader, in the playoffs. Plus, even with Boston being injured, Al Horford is their leader, and he’s a playoff veteran.

But, still, it was a bad look for the Sixers to drop confetti, because they thought Marco Belinelli hit a three-pointer. If that was a three, the Sixers would have won without overtime. In the end, it was a two, so there was overtime, and Philly had a bunch of turnovers that cost them a 5-point lead, hence Twitter saying “Damn Philly.”
