Boston Celtics vs Philadelphia 76ers Full 1st Qtr Highlights | Nov 11 | 2025 NBA Highlights
Both teams are constituted right now. Yeah, they won’t play that fourth and final game until March 1st. Think about that. Two rivals playing 21 days apart. Know each other very well here. Celtics reacting quickly to Maxi Dish inside and the veteran Andre Drummond in his 14th year breaks the seal on this one. And to me, that’s where Maxi Game has taken another level. his ability to distribute the basketball as he gets into the paint. Derek White looks for that lob for Peanut inside, but instead it was closed off. So, White gets the scoring going and White Pritchard getting going will be big for this Boston team. Yeah, both guys career lows in terms of shooting the basketball through 10 games. Anything to be worried about? No, because both are high volume shooters. Find a way to get out of it. Pritchard stays in front of Maxi. Five to shoot. Trendan Watford fifth year at LSU. Basket bound and knocks down to two. Watford had a triple double in his first Sixer start a couple of games ago against the Raptors. Sixers open 4 and0 on the season. Two and four since contact there. A lot of contact. Payton Pritchard, sixth man of the year. Two white off on that three. You know the Celtics story with Joe Missoula over the last couple of years as the ball stays down here. No team shoots more three-pointers on a regular base as often right now. And that’s been a staple for them during this championship run of theirs the last five or six years. Brown got that step, controlled the pace, didn’t make the shot. Watford goes up to get it, but he threw it right to Pritchard, pulls up at the line, doesn’t see the first one go down. Kada fighting inside for two Kada fifth year out of Utah State in Portugal has given the Celtics a good pivot presence. Also too, that’s something you haven’t seen a lot early on in this season from the Celtics, offensive rebounding. It goes Maxi. So quick with the three that he shoots at 44%. [Music] Gives Philly the early three-point edge out of the quarter. Respond to the three from Josh Minet. Fourth year out of Memphis. Was not a starter before this. And Reggie’s found that role as Joe Missoula continues to find the players who are going to answer the call from Boston. Max the best. Celtics the rebound. And why not’s one of those players. Watch his length and athleticism. This is the reason why he’s in the starting lineup for the Celtics. Look at Brown goes spin on Watford trying to lay it up inside. Draws the contact and the foul there. And Jaylen Brown. You saw that move. Now stay there as I pin you. Three. Giannis, Jaylen, and SGA. What makes them great? They play both sides of the ball. Great defenders. Those top three in terms of usage. There’s another guy that is pretty good in in usage rate and Jason Tatum course the Achilles tear in the Eastern Conference semifinals last year. That’s the rookie BJ Edgecom the third overall pick in the draft. Got off to a scorching start. Be fun to watch 77 tonight. Good twirl inside. Kada with the finish. Both of these teams great start in terms of attacking that paint collapsing the defense and finding the bigs. Seven straight for the Celtics. Kelly Ubé. 4-2. 18 and a half a game. Third in scoring on this Philadelphia team. The 11th year man’s college ball in Kansas. Brown misses the three. Drummond on the rebound. Here is the rookie Edgecom. And Boston very well aware of his talent. He is not sneaking up on the Celtics for sure. Oxford for three. Looks like Billy’s going to be content going toe-to-toe from that three-point line with the Celtics. Again, the Celtics want to get up 53s here. Brown mid-range offkin got bumped but stays there. Good size, length, and strength for a young player. Ranch, we had a chance to speak with him before the game and he’s a lot bigger than you would expect. You think he’s a smaller 6’2 63 running more like 6’5. White comes over with the help defense couldn’t put a fork in it and it goes back the other way to Philadelphia. Also good with the steels. White provides so much defense and now a little bit more offense as the Celtics get into their rhythm for the season. Uber short on the three and here comes 10th year man out of Cal Brown basket found but the Sixers collapse the rim and a foul on Minet in the back court. Jaylen Brown gets his first four from the field here tonight. Tyrese Maxi here putting size on the young guard here. See if they can use that length. Pritchard fighting inside because as Mina comes out here, he’s got to deal with the size of Watford down low. Great finishes. So they’re trying to switch up and have more size on Maxi, but that puts Pritchard on Watford and Watford did the right thing. Jake Pton down to the post and make them come double. The coaches love when they see that when their guys recognize that right away and go to it on the switch here. Drummond’s got Pritchard. So inside they go to Kada and he is fouled. It’ll be three on the in year three and once again he is dealing with life without his star player in Joel Embiid. Anthony Simons in from Boston got the ball back on a kick violation. So it’ll stay down here. And Reggie, when you look at the box score and you see Joel Embiid out with a knee injury is taking with Embiid, you you’ve heard and seen the comments that he’s not happy with the minutes restriction. You know, you got to play the long game and it’s much more important to have a healthy Embiid come March and April than someone limping into the playoffs. when he has played. No backto-backs this year. He’s averaged 23 minutes a game. Maxi great spin and pivot. Got bodied by Whites. And the fouls called on Derek, his first team second. Eight assists. He understands I’m not going to have the big fella all night. I’ve got to put my imprint on this team and take more of a leadership role. Zor Stevens will have more on that in a little bit. 1611 Sixers leading this one by five. Simon, former Portland Trailblazer. Good piece of this puzzle for Boston. The white miss out of bounds last off. And those are those wide open threes by Derek White a year ago was knocking them down. That terms of shooting that three ball. Is that why you were leaning into me as he shot that? You want to see a shooter get going? You do. I mean, I understand. I mean, Derek has been a big part of the success for this Celtics team. He’s shooting a career low 27% from three. I got all that, but it’s a random three with 530 left in the first quarter. Like, Reg, why you leaning into me like it’s late game, late shot clock here. The rookie edge come off the mark. Sam Howard the rebound. Boston the push. Brown to the basket. Lot of contact and the foul is called on Philly. Maxi can’t believe it’s him. He’ll look over and negotiate. Get the challenge. And Sam Hower knocks down the three-pointer. So Hower, another one of those shooters who the Celtics need to succeed has made this a two-point game. Was questionable tonight with that wrist soreness. Kelly Ubé inside rises over Brown. Really enjoy Kelly and have red hair by the way. He said he’s gone to the red so he can bring the fire from inside out so we can all see it. Love to have that option but we don’t. Garza couldn’t squeeze it. Maxi the other way for the Sixers. Gray was on the side.

As Boston Fan.. It is truly frustrating watching this team.. They have decent enough players but their play schemes are so obvious and one dimensional!!
Who drew up those horrible last plays for our team??? You play our guys way too long.. that is why they keep getting injured. Hey Coach, dont be afraid to pull out some more of our bench players.. Stop having them just chucking up 3’s…They need ball movement and better screens and better passing.
Lastly and most importantly Pritchard is too small to start..
Sorry.. not sorry.
Neither one played.
People hate being played.
