Boston Celtics vs Philadelphia 76ers Full Highlights 3rd QTR | Feb 27 | 2024 NBA Regular Season
With 18 Philadelphia with the first possession of this third quarter and off we go here biggest lead Philadelphia led by seven Boston’s biggest lead has been six so they played the single digits as Reed denied by porzingis a stand on the first defensive possession for Boston and Maxi takes it right
Back so 10 turnovers now Harris can’t finish it porzingis clears that was a great great contest without fouling there white on a rim run throws it down the space is cleared for white okay Derek white still got it yeah wh’s having such a great year all the pieces just fit for Boston they’re
Not having the kind of game they had hoped for tonight having won eight consecutive games we talked to Joe zoua before the game and he talked about how concerned he was don’t want to overlook a team because Joel embiid’s not here and right away looks like Boston coming
Out with a sense of urgency out of halftime trying to send a message early here in this third quarter Drew holiday four out of five tonight has just that one miss he’s got eight points you know you’re in a good spot when Drew holidays your your fourth
Option as Maxi missed it brown pulls down the rebound Sixers get back but Brown goes right by UB and is fouled on his way in Jaylen Brown said hey we would uh consider that again next year and you love to have the Stars competing in the specialty events I like how he
Sending that message as a star willing to put himself out there oh Tatum with the block and particularly how they don’t foul but play great aggressive defense a big free throw discrepancy right now as Maxi drives it finds Harris in the corner Line Drive misses Boston trying to stretch their
Lead biggest lead for either team at this point and holiday adds to it Philadelphia a little desperate Austin on a 140 run going back to the end of the second quarter the Sixers are scoreless the last 4 minutes and 30 seconds of game time and late clock here
On this possession is Harris taking on Brown can’t budge him got to get one up it is healed desperation and Boston hold serve again textbook defense texbook post defense and great contest and brown misses but porzingis with the [Applause] follow he’s a Difference Maker 16 unanswered for the
Celtics and they’ve opened up a 13-point lead now Maxi got white on his back back Maxi finally scores one for Philadelphia a much needed basket there Maxi able to knock down the mid-range but just how this Boston team can turn the screws defensively and what was a
Close game pain just having their way and porzingis going to add two more a two-handed jam and that’s great execution but horrible defense right you can’t have that off of out of- bounds play the energy that Philadelphia played with in the first half on defense is non-existent here in this
Third now Boston looking every bit the number one seed right now coming out of the halftime locker room Sixers have just one made field goal missed their first seven of this quarter but they’ve hit on back to back now as Mo bomba delivers his second three pointer well they’re getting it
Going offensively but they have to show some force and have some resistance here on on the defensive end porzingis again gets UB in the air missed it gets his Zone missed that one Maxi trying to get the Sixers on a run but he healed and a turnover white
Great defender gets the steel white Euro get older the the more you narrow down the things that you’re good at and you take away the things that you were kind of testing out as a younger player he said during the game I might do three things offensively but guys he’s going
To do them very well no question Stephanie and he is thriving he feels like the perfect finishing piece to this Boston Celtics team who made it to the NBA finals a year ago now aspirations of a championship and poring is defensively disrupting that play Derek white pushes Celtics have won eight straight
Longest of the season for Boston a win to tonight they matched the longest winning streak in the NBA this year as Tatum gets inside Here Comes UB out of the pack number first and I I don’t know I think when the transition stop now there’s always the secondary break that maybe Nick nurse
Was upset about but buddy Hill had an open three I live with that Maxi a long three and he hits over porzingis so Tyrese maxi he’s got 23 now his third made three-pointer and I love this kid’s game and Maxi is attempting 20 shots per game
The most shot attempts by six a guard since Allen Iverson in the 20056 season he’s got a play like AI here in this second half Bama ends up on Brown that’s a mismatch Brown gets by him easily and lays it in and more points in the P for the
Celtics and I like the patience there Jaylen Brown just took his time when the opportunity presented himself attacked bomba for that easy two brown with 22 42 points in the pain for Boston Maxi no bomba yes bomba getting some extended minutes here Batum trying to check porzingis halfway through this third
Quarter porzingis is fouled player in Marcus Smart bringing in Drew holiday who’s won and poor zingis who just presents all kinds of matchup problems on both ends of the floor Celtics leaded by 10 Hower on Maxi Maxi right by him and Maxi fly into the basket for the
Reverse tell you when Maxi gets downhill he gets to the rim with such ease 25 for playing time didn’t come right away Doc Rivers was was tough on Maxi but was positive with him knowing that he would develop into a terrific player and that has come to fruition the last couple of
Years and Maxi’s been a beast played 11 players in that first half different combinations Kristoff porzingis told Stephanie we’re trying to figure out what they’re doing and then added I think the Sixers are trying to figure out what they’re doing and I think he’s he’s right on that front see what match
Ups work Maxi keeps the dribble finds patum bomba keeps it alive buddy heel can’t hit it couple of good looks for Philadelphia Dereck white working with porzingis porzingis pops free three Sixers surround him leaving White open for three no there’s Lowry with the rebound and this small ball lineup of Philadelphia had success there in the second quarter great hand from the Philadelphia 76ers DeAnthony Melton will not be
Returning to action guys due to back spasms keep in mind he’s only played in the previous two games he missed the 18 prior to that the last game though he scored 16 points four for eight from behind the three so he was coming along well I talked to him before the game and
He said it was weird when he came back because it was like the third different Sixers team that he had to play with this season because of the personel changes
