The Philadelphia 76ers finally got one over on the Boston Celtics by winning Game 7 at the Garden, and Sixers fans weren’t going to let anyone forget about it, especially Brian Scalabrine. The Sixers came back from a 3-1 series deficit in surprising circumstances to win their first series against their Eastern Conference rivals since…

The Philadelphia 76ers finally silenced their doubters—and a certain redheaded Celtics analyst—with a stunning Game 7 victory at TD Garden, breaking a decades-long playoff curse against their bitter Eastern Conference rivals. Sixers fans, fueled by years of heartbreak, made sure Brian Scalabrine heard every last taunt.

Philadelphia erased a 3-1 series deficit in dramatic fashion, marking their first playoff series win over Boston since 1982. The Celtics had dominated the matchup for over four decades, winning six straight postseason meetings. But with Jayson Tatum sidelined by injury and Joel Embiid back at full strength, the Sixers jumped out to an early lead and weathered a tense finish to secure a 109-100 win.

Noah Eagle's call captured the moment perfectly: "AND FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FRANCHISE HISTORY, THE PHILADELPHIA 76ERS HAVE COME BACK FROM 3-1 DOWN! THEY TAKE OUT THE NO. 2 SEED IN THE EAST, AND 'THE PROCESS' IS MOVING ON TO THE SECOND ROUND!"

The series was filled with trash talk, especially between Embiid and Celtics star Jaylen Brown. That tension boiled over during NBC Sports Boston's postgame show, where Sixers fans crashed the broadcast with a taunting "We want Boston" chant. Scalabrine, the Celtics' fiery analyst, could only muster a frustrated retort: "You are ugly."

It's understandable why Scalabrine and Boston fans were so rattled. After Brown carried the team through the regular season and Tatum made a remarkable return from an Achilles injury, the Celtics looked poised for another NBA Finals run. But everything unraveled: a fourth-quarter collapse in Game 5, Tatum's body breaking down, and head coach Joe Mazzulla's puzzling decisions—including a bizarre starting lineup for Game 7. For Boston, it's going to be a long, bitter offseason. For Philadelphia, the revenge tour has just begun.
