So the season series between the Celtics and the Sixers tied it too.

But the first three games were all in the first month of the season. In fact, the 76ers second win over the Celtics this season dropped them to five and seven.

Remember that poor start that the Celtics had this year. The Celtics ended up turning their season around really right after that game. They won 10 of their next 12 after dropping that second game to the Sixers. Then they played again on March 1st, several months later. Obviously, no Tatum, no Paul George, no Embed.

But the Celtics just kind of methodically took over from there and really dominated that game. Obviously, no Tatum or no Paul George in any of the four games. No Joel Embed in all but one of the games, a game early in

the season where he looks terrible, super immobile, very early in the year. They got crushed when he

was on the floor and then dominated when he was off the floor. So we don't really have any good look
