I have to say, you know, going into this Philadelphia Boston game on Saturday night,

0:04.5

remember we were talking about it? What was the spread? What was the spread? And I was like, you got to take Philadelphia. I mean, I, I, we also didn't know about Tatum at that point. Right. And then when Tatum comes out, you're like, oh my God, there's no way. But, you know, Philadelphia had been trending and they had done something that they had never done before. and that has beat Boston in a series.

0:23.5

I had no idea that they had never done before and that has beat

0:21.1

Boston in a at a series I had no idea that they had never beaten Boston in a playoff series

0:26.5

I had no idea that Boston when they were up three and one was undefeated in a situation like that

0:32.8

and the fact that joel mb and Tyrese maxi and everybody else on that Philadelphia roster turned it up a notch.

0:39.6

They turned it up a notch. I mean, like, when you look at that series, you see where Boston basically takes over that series, goes up 3-1, and you think this is going to be a mailing spot like it was for the Knicks against the Hawks.

1:32.5

Are they ever going to be healthy together and play well?

1:34.5

Well, those were answered.

1:36.0

Now, I make a kind of comparison with the Knicks when they were down two games to one to the Hawks.

1:42.2

Now, we didn't have the injuries that they had,

1:44.4

didn't have the severe ups and downs that the Sixers had, but, you know, they found something,
