Sixers-Celtics tip off for Game 7 (heavy breathing)

Here we are, at what is the most pivotal point of the season. The Sixers and Celtics will tip off in Boston at 3:30 p.m. to decide who advances to the Conference Finals.

The Sixers are coming off a largely uninspiring performance, where they were held without a field goal for nearly the final seven minutes of Game 6. The Celtics’ adjustment of starting Rob Williams greatly helped the C’s defense, as he was able to sag off of P.J Tucker and muck up the Sixers’ offense. The Celtics will likely do this again, which begs the question if the Sixers should switch up their starting five.
