Joel Embiid wasn’t the only one who couldn’t watch the end of the Boston Celtics’ Game 2 blowout win over the Philadelphia 76ers.
Despite Embiid’s efforts — 34 points, 10 rebounds — Jayson Tatum, Kemba Walker and Jaylen Brown all scored 20 or more to give their team a 2-0 lead in their opening-round series in the bubble. It’s not looking good for the Ben Simmons-less Sixers.
Cameras caught a Sixers fan “attending” the game virtually who was so distraught that he blindfolded himself — looking like Sandra Bullock in Bird Box — while in his seat. It really summed up everything all Sixers fans were feeling on Wednesday night.
