Coach Nick is joined by referee Chip Clark to dissect a pivotal night of playoff basketball where the Philadelphia 76ers shocked the Boston Celtics on their home floor. We analyze how the Celtics offense completely bogged down in the fourth quarter, leading to a franchise playoff low of just 11 points. Chip explains the "adversity default" that causes Boston to abandon team sets for stagnant isolation play.

Next, we deep-dive into the technicalities of the "off-arm" extension, using the SGA and Devin Booker collision as a case study. Chip provides a masterclass on why Booker’s "clamp" on Shai’s arm was a dead giveaway for the officiating crew.
