The Celtics' season comes to an end as they fall at home to the 76ers in Game 7, blowing a 3-1 lead, with no Jayson Tatum.

The Celtics keep their negative momentum from Game 5, and get blown off the floor in Philadelphia, 106-93, in a game that wasn't really that close. The Jays were off, Tatum got hurt, and there was nobody to help them out. Joe got outcoached, the energy was awful, and Embiid, Paul George, and Maxey looked like a real superstar trio.
