WEBVTT - The BroadCast: 02/02/2018 - Rewind vs. Heat

0:00:05.600 --> 0:00:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Celt with you from six ers dot com. Let's join

0:00:07.960 --> 0:00:10.600
<v Speaker 1>in progress right now. The winning head coach Rip Brown,

0:00:11.000 --> 0:00:12.880
<v Speaker 1>You foul too much and you put them in the

0:00:12.920 --> 0:00:18.040
<v Speaker 1>bonus early, and there's a barrage of threes. We didn't

0:00:18.160 --> 0:00:21.400
<v Speaker 1>We only had ten turnovers for the game. We had

0:00:21.440 --> 0:00:23.840
<v Speaker 1>three late you know, on sort of hooking fouls, and

0:00:23.880 --> 0:00:25.840
<v Speaker 1>then we got a quick play. We try to get

0:00:25.880 --> 0:00:29.600
<v Speaker 1>it in quickly from Ben getting in, so we have

0:00:29.640 --> 0:00:32.320
<v Speaker 1>to burn a time out, you know, went through Cub's hands.

0:00:32.880 --> 0:00:35.240
<v Speaker 1>And so I think that the demise of the lead

0:00:35.320 --> 0:00:39.040
<v Speaker 1>happened with stoppages because they were in the bonus soon.

0:00:39.479 --> 0:00:42.920
<v Speaker 1>It took away our tempo and our rhythm. And I

0:00:42.960 --> 0:00:46.239
<v Speaker 1>think that they they made some threes, you know, they

0:00:46.280 --> 0:00:49.080
<v Speaker 1>really made some threes. And so we'll go back and

0:00:49.120 --> 0:00:52.960
<v Speaker 1>look deeper into why. But those types of things are

0:00:53.000 --> 0:00:56.200
<v Speaker 1>on my mind. Anything change when there really wasn't that

0:00:56.320 --> 0:01:01.320
<v Speaker 1>much indeed versus White Side tonight, when when Embeds matched

0:01:01.400 --> 0:01:06.160
<v Speaker 1>up against them, and you sorry, just which question is? Well? Like,

0:01:06.280 --> 0:01:08.280
<v Speaker 1>how did how did? How is? Anything didn't change it?

0:01:08.319 --> 0:01:10.720
<v Speaker 1>When the magic went from Emmie versus White Side, which

0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:14.160
<v Speaker 1>I think they're all expecting to Embed versus a man Um,

0:01:15.200 --> 0:01:17.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't really know the probably, I don't know,

0:01:17.760 --> 0:01:19.800
<v Speaker 1>like you, you'd be able to talk about sort of

0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:23.520
<v Speaker 1>like the maybe the entertainment side of it, those two

0:01:23.520 --> 0:01:25.800
<v Speaker 1>guys going at each other. But with Bam, I felt

0:01:25.800 --> 0:01:28.600
<v Speaker 1>like Joel could get deeper. You know, I think white

0:01:28.640 --> 0:01:31.960
<v Speaker 1>Side is a very very good defensive player. Not many

0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:34.480
<v Speaker 1>times you're going to see a guy block one of

0:01:34.560 --> 0:01:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Joel's like mini fade waves. But I thought that, you know,

0:01:38.640 --> 0:01:41.920
<v Speaker 1>we had maybe more than advantage when Bam was in,

0:01:42.000 --> 0:01:47.800
<v Speaker 1>just from a weight and physical standpoint. You said before

0:01:47.840 --> 0:01:51.120
<v Speaker 1>the game that when when you have injuries to rotation players,

0:01:51.240 --> 0:01:54.280
<v Speaker 1>it offers people like Justin Anderson the opportunity to play

0:01:54.320 --> 0:01:56.480
<v Speaker 1>for more minutes. Do you feel like he had one

0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:58.240
<v Speaker 1>of those games that might have earned him more minutes

0:01:58.240 --> 0:02:02.200
<v Speaker 1>going forward? Already played well? You know, when you when

0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:05.320
<v Speaker 1>you really sort of look at the bench, Um, I

0:02:05.400 --> 0:02:09.560
<v Speaker 1>thought at times, you know, a bench struggled. I thought

0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:12.240
<v Speaker 1>that he played well, and he has been playing well.

0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:16.160
<v Speaker 1>He understands that he's different than any of our wings

0:02:16.320 --> 0:02:19.080
<v Speaker 1>in relation to just being sort of a bowl in

0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:22.480
<v Speaker 1>a china shop. You know, he's so physical, and I

0:02:22.520 --> 0:02:26.040
<v Speaker 1>think that he has been playing well out of the

0:02:26.080 --> 0:02:29.720
<v Speaker 1>wings that we had tonight. Um, I give him the

0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:34.400
<v Speaker 1>most Uh, I give him the most credit. And I

0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:36.880
<v Speaker 1>just shortly after the game, but I have to ask,

0:02:36.880 --> 0:02:40.720
<v Speaker 1>are you still playing? I'm playing Joel tomorrow? Oh yeah,

0:02:40.760 --> 0:02:45.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean it is. It's a it's a at times

0:02:45.400 --> 0:02:47.239
<v Speaker 1>when you feel it like it's a little bit of

0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:50.799
<v Speaker 1>an empty win, and I get upset up myself, a

0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:52.640
<v Speaker 1>feeling like that, I'm not walking on a planet. All

0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:55.160
<v Speaker 1>that's great, I'm not feeling like that, you know. I

0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:59.840
<v Speaker 1>feel like we had an opportunity that was very dominant

0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:02.520
<v Speaker 1>for a long time. And so the fact that we

0:03:02.639 --> 0:03:05.200
<v Speaker 1>did win, the fact that Joel is going to play,

0:03:05.720 --> 0:03:10.160
<v Speaker 1>I will I will look at this win, I think

0:03:10.160 --> 0:03:11.920
<v Speaker 1>in a different lens as soon as I jump in

0:03:12.000 --> 0:03:14.560
<v Speaker 1>my car. But I am excited to have Joe Ellen

0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:17.000
<v Speaker 1>his first back to back. There you have it. Some

0:03:17.040 --> 0:03:19.359
<v Speaker 1>thoughts from Brett Brown after the seventy six ers one

0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:22.120
<v Speaker 1>h three ninety seven win over the Miami Heat. So

0:03:22.200 --> 0:03:24.440
<v Speaker 1>let's just very quickly start with that. The Heat came

0:03:24.440 --> 0:03:27.400
<v Speaker 1>into tonight's game, fourth in the conference and three and

0:03:27.440 --> 0:03:28.760
<v Speaker 1>a half games in front of the six or so

0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:31.240
<v Speaker 1>by virtue of a win, the Sixers back above five

0:03:31.360 --> 0:03:34.760
<v Speaker 1>hundred halt three game losing streak and closed within two

0:03:34.800 --> 0:03:37.440
<v Speaker 1>and a half games of the fourth place team in

0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:41.400
<v Speaker 1>the conference. That ain't bad what Brett Brown was just

0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:43.760
<v Speaker 1>alluding to right there a few moments ago. In addition

0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:46.280
<v Speaker 1>to the fact that jillenb could make history tomorrow by

0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:48.440
<v Speaker 1>in terms of his career, playing back to back games

0:03:48.440 --> 0:03:50.920
<v Speaker 1>for the first time ever, which would be great, what

0:03:51.120 --> 0:03:53.080
<v Speaker 1>Brown was getting to the heart of was the fact

0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:55.800
<v Speaker 1>that the Sixers routes scored by twenty thirty seven to

0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:59.360
<v Speaker 1>seventeen in the fourth quarter and nearly squandered at twenty

0:03:59.440 --> 0:04:02.960
<v Speaker 1>eight point lead. How it happened the Heat relying on

0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:05.040
<v Speaker 1>a seventeen nothing run to get back into the game

0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:08.000
<v Speaker 1>will dissect the details a little bit more. All five

0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:10.560
<v Speaker 1>starters for the Sixers in double figures, twenty points for

0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:14.360
<v Speaker 1>Ben Simmons, double doubles for Joel Embiid and Dario Charge

0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:17.800
<v Speaker 1>and the Sixers hold off the hard charging Miami Heats.

0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:20.440
<v Speaker 1>More to come with Tom McGinnis joining us next. This

0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:23.520
<v Speaker 1>is the postgame showing the Sixers Raider Network Heat at

0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:25.880
<v Speaker 1>this Center tonight and a win for the Sixers one

0:04:26.000 --> 0:04:29.040
<v Speaker 1>h three ninety seven. Brian Seltzer from Sixers dot Com

0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:33.160
<v Speaker 1>rejoined now by Tom McGinnis and Tom that got a

0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:35.640
<v Speaker 1>little bit close down the stretch of the game, a

0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:38.440
<v Speaker 1>game that the Sixers just flat out dominated with a

0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:41.400
<v Speaker 1>huge stretch in the third quarter in which they scored

0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:44.400
<v Speaker 1>nineteen points in a row. But there were the heat.

0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:46.560
<v Speaker 1>You know, this is a hard playing team. They clawed

0:04:46.600 --> 0:04:48.880
<v Speaker 1>their way back, but the Sixers do hang on for

0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:51.760
<v Speaker 1>a nice helpful win in the big picture. Yeah, absolutely,

0:04:51.800 --> 0:04:53.719
<v Speaker 1>big picture. If you'd have said tonight at a round

0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:55.880
<v Speaker 1>six o'clock, you take a six point win over Miami,

0:04:56.000 --> 0:05:01.480
<v Speaker 1>absolutely twice on Sunday, right, doubleheader on Sunday. And we

0:05:02.400 --> 0:05:05.440
<v Speaker 1>must add I believe this is Brett Brown's one hundredth

0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:08.800
<v Speaker 1>victory as a Sixers coach, which you know, that's a

0:05:08.839 --> 0:05:10.920
<v Speaker 1>pretty big achievement for a guy who's been here for

0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:14.560
<v Speaker 1>five years and been through some tough seasons. Season with

0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:17.880
<v Speaker 1>ten wins, you know, it's a great, great mark and

0:05:17.880 --> 0:05:21.000
<v Speaker 1>hopefully you'll have hundreds more here with the Sixers. But

0:05:21.240 --> 0:05:24.760
<v Speaker 1>no doubt, and great stretch to get ahead by twenty eight.

0:05:24.880 --> 0:05:26.800
<v Speaker 1>But then, as you say, a little concerning to give

0:05:26.880 --> 0:05:29.040
<v Speaker 1>up a lead and see it cut to four, and

0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:32.160
<v Speaker 1>yet in the end the Sixers gained the victory. At

0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:34.040
<v Speaker 1>some point, the Sixers have got to learn from this,

0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:36.680
<v Speaker 1>and again you can sort of see it coming. As

0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:39.680
<v Speaker 1>Brett Brown said, they put the opposition in the bonus.

0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:43.360
<v Speaker 1>You start seeing some threes, the momentum shifts, the Sixers

0:05:43.440 --> 0:05:45.120
<v Speaker 1>get away a little bit from what they were doing

0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:49.640
<v Speaker 1>on offense. And it's happened multiple times, whereas the Sixers

0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:53.039
<v Speaker 1>have lost these double digit leads, and in the NBA,

0:05:53.200 --> 0:05:56.320
<v Speaker 1>with so much time on the clock, there's you know,

0:05:56.560 --> 0:05:58.760
<v Speaker 1>there's there's a chance for the opponents to come back,

0:05:58.800 --> 0:06:01.200
<v Speaker 1>and that's what happened here tonight. But again the Sixers

0:06:01.240 --> 0:06:03.000
<v Speaker 1>were able to lock in and get two big field

0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:05.679
<v Speaker 1>goals won by Simmons at the rim, one a jumper

0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:08.160
<v Speaker 1>by Jowell, and I believe he assisted on the pass

0:06:08.279 --> 0:06:11.000
<v Speaker 1>down load to Ben. So they were able to do it.

0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:13.600
<v Speaker 1>And you know, they're so talented to be able to

0:06:13.640 --> 0:06:17.040
<v Speaker 1>build up these leads repeatedly on good teams. It shows

0:06:17.080 --> 0:06:19.720
<v Speaker 1>you and obviously the emphasis is not necessarily on that

0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:22.440
<v Speaker 1>when you let it slip away, but a little easier

0:06:22.480 --> 0:06:24.040
<v Speaker 1>to focus on that kind of thing when you do

0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:26.600
<v Speaker 1>get the victory seventy six ers over the Heat, one

0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:29.160
<v Speaker 1>of three ninety seven. Coming into tonight's game time, a

0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:31.520
<v Speaker 1>lot of the focus was on how with the first

0:06:31.600 --> 0:06:35.120
<v Speaker 1>regular season meeting between Embad and Hassan Whiteside go given

0:06:35.200 --> 0:06:39.719
<v Speaker 1>that very spirited preseason confrontation in Kansas City. Well, especially

0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:42.960
<v Speaker 1>in the first half, neither was doing much offensively. They

0:06:43.040 --> 0:06:45.120
<v Speaker 1>had their rebounds and in the end and Bead finishes

0:06:45.160 --> 0:06:49.320
<v Speaker 1>with seventeen points eleven rebounds, had a key assist followed

0:06:49.360 --> 0:06:51.640
<v Speaker 1>by a basket to give the six or some breathing

0:06:51.720 --> 0:06:54.040
<v Speaker 1>room in the final two minutes. Word came out that

0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:57.680
<v Speaker 1>Whiteside was battling an illness in tonight's game, so we

0:06:57.720 --> 0:07:01.680
<v Speaker 1>didn't really finish. But how did you things on that front?

0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:03.479
<v Speaker 1>It looked like really Olink was one of the guys

0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:05.520
<v Speaker 1>that got the Heat back into the game. Yeah, well right,

0:07:05.600 --> 0:07:08.080
<v Speaker 1>But getting back to Whiteside, I'm glad you said that

0:07:08.080 --> 0:07:09.880
<v Speaker 1>because I was. I already said during the game, it

0:07:09.960 --> 0:07:12.760
<v Speaker 1>looks like he plays sometimes with a low motor. I mean,

0:07:12.800 --> 0:07:14.760
<v Speaker 1>he just did not seem like he was that engaged.

0:07:14.840 --> 0:07:18.320
<v Speaker 1>So that explains a little bit why Bam and Abaio

0:07:18.440 --> 0:07:20.200
<v Speaker 1>was in there, and we commented pregame that we thought

0:07:20.240 --> 0:07:23.200
<v Speaker 1>Adebio would play because he had quickness and strength to

0:07:23.360 --> 0:07:26.560
<v Speaker 1>deal with Joel, so that obviously had a big part

0:07:26.600 --> 0:07:29.040
<v Speaker 1>to do with it. Whiteside did have three blocks, but

0:07:29.320 --> 0:07:32.320
<v Speaker 1>was really a non factor in the game. And then

0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:35.760
<v Speaker 1>when they were coming back, as we stipulated earlier, I

0:07:35.840 --> 0:07:38.920
<v Speaker 1>think Spolster left in that second group with Tyler Johnson

0:07:38.960 --> 0:07:41.480
<v Speaker 1>who started, because that's the group that got them back

0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:43.760
<v Speaker 1>in the game, and that certainly gave him the outside

0:07:43.840 --> 0:07:47.200
<v Speaker 1>firepower with you know, Ellington beginning to hit some threes

0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:48.960
<v Speaker 1>and Olymic got into the lane, he made a three

0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:52.080
<v Speaker 1>point field goal, he got some free throws. Winslow didn't

0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:54.240
<v Speaker 1>score a lot, but boy, he was active at both

0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:57.600
<v Speaker 1>ends of the floor, getting rebounds and defensively adding quite

0:07:57.640 --> 0:08:00.320
<v Speaker 1>a bit. And Joel had it up and down night.

0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:03.000
<v Speaker 1>Early he struggled a little bit from the field, had

0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:05.760
<v Speaker 1>a good rebounding night, and ended up with his twenty

0:08:05.800 --> 0:08:09.240
<v Speaker 1>fourth double double. And you know, again, when you need

0:08:09.280 --> 0:08:12.280
<v Speaker 1>a basket in beating not flawless, but it's a nice

0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:13.880
<v Speaker 1>thing to be able to have your biggest and best

0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:16.880
<v Speaker 1>player stepping out and making a seven seventeen foot face

0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:19.240
<v Speaker 1>up jump shot to give you a cushion and give

0:08:19.240 --> 0:08:21.680
<v Speaker 1>you a much needed hoop. Sixers over the Heat one

0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:24.960
<v Speaker 1>oh three ninety seven. We tend to focus on lasting

0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:28.120
<v Speaker 1>impressions of games, and maybe especially in the fresh row

0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:31.800
<v Speaker 1>moments right after not the matchup. In the totality, Dario

0:08:32.000 --> 0:08:35.640
<v Speaker 1>charts great start helped get the Sixers going. He finished

0:08:35.640 --> 0:08:38.880
<v Speaker 1>with seventeen and ten no absolutely, and the Sixers struggled

0:08:38.880 --> 0:08:42.199
<v Speaker 1>in Milwaukee and in Brooklyn, but I thought, you know,

0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:45.240
<v Speaker 1>Dario and the whole group had had its legs back collectively,

0:08:45.600 --> 0:08:48.760
<v Speaker 1>and Dario five for five to start the game did

0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:51.280
<v Speaker 1>a tremendous job, had a great action to start the

0:08:51.360 --> 0:08:53.160
<v Speaker 1>game off a cut, got the ball from Ben and

0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:56.520
<v Speaker 1>scored it, and then the threes, and then when he

0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:59.160
<v Speaker 1>gets inside again with space with Dull not in there,

0:08:59.520 --> 0:09:01.959
<v Speaker 1>when a years in there, Dario goes in there and

0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:04.640
<v Speaker 1>he's just able to wheel and deal. Doesn't always score it,

0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:06.880
<v Speaker 1>but gets a pretty good look at her, is able

0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:09.760
<v Speaker 1>to set somebody up, and he's just in many ways,

0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:12.280
<v Speaker 1>like TJ, kind of the heart and soul of the

0:09:12.400 --> 0:09:15.440
<v Speaker 1>team and just a really good old round player, double

0:09:15.480 --> 0:09:18.920
<v Speaker 1>figures on the glass, able to guard, and just a

0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:23.000
<v Speaker 1>great team player. Who's beloved by his teammates and a

0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:26.319
<v Speaker 1>key component for this team on Indianapolis with the seventy

0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:28.480

<v Speaker 1>terms of the Eastern Conference playoff picture. First of four

0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:03.679
<v Speaker 1>meetings on the season. Here's hat went, as called by

0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:07.079
<v Speaker 1>the one and only Tom McGinnis. Seventy Sixers scored the

0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:09.360
<v Speaker 1>first six, the Heat answered with eight in rows, so

0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:11.320
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of a neck and neck pace at

0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:14.800
<v Speaker 1>the outset. Darrio scharge was terrific in the early going.

0:10:15.920 --> 0:10:18.400
<v Speaker 1>T J McConnell in the names he's caught, He's got

0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:19.640
<v Speaker 1>to get it out of there he does. He goes

0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:23.000
<v Speaker 1>to Dario and Scharedge shoots the three that's in. Dario

<v Speaker 1>In the opening quarter, Sixers had a one point lead

0:10:33.520 --> 0:10:36.040
<v Speaker 1>after twelve minutes of play, twenty four to twenty three.

0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:38.800
<v Speaker 1>Was still close and leads were traded. In the opening

0:10:38.840 --> 0:10:41.320
<v Speaker 1>minutes of quarter number two, Ben Simmons trying to help

0:10:41.360 --> 0:10:44.560
<v Speaker 1>the Sixers gain some separation. Dario Scharge takes it away

0:10:44.600 --> 0:10:47.400
<v Speaker 1>down to Simmons and Simmons with a jam. Great play

0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:50.800
<v Speaker 1>by the Sixers, Dario the Ben and the Sixers have

0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:54.640
<v Speaker 1>a three point lead eight minutes to go. Great feed

<v Speaker 1>first half, scoring, facilitating and helping the Sixers get some

0:11:03.760 --> 0:11:06.319
<v Speaker 1>momentum going. They rode that to a thirteen to two

0:11:06.400 --> 0:11:08.640
<v Speaker 1>run to open things up, and they let it the

0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:12.400
<v Speaker 1>half fifty one to forty one. In the third quarter,

0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:16.439
<v Speaker 1>the highlight for the Sixers a nineteen nothing terror and

0:11:16.640 --> 0:11:19.640
<v Speaker 1>Daro Sharich once again left his imprint Simmons with it,

0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Miami back with numbers, Ben goes behind his back, Nobody

0:11:22.920 --> 0:11:25.480

<v Speaker 1>Sharich triple time out. Miami a fourteen point lead, and

0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:37.760
<v Speaker 1>it would balloon to the total of sixteen before the

0:11:37.880 --> 0:11:41.000
<v Speaker 1>Sixers run was done. And at the end of the

0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:43.240
<v Speaker 1>third quarter, Joel and bat who had to battle to

0:11:43.280 --> 0:11:45.520
<v Speaker 1>get some baskets from the first two and a half

0:11:45.600 --> 0:11:49.400
<v Speaker 1>quarters of play, got in position to do some damage

0:11:49.520 --> 0:11:52.160
<v Speaker 1>down low. McConnell with the ball down to Joel to

0:11:52.360 --> 0:11:55.000
<v Speaker 1>beat against at a bio backs, turns, gets around him

0:11:55.040 --> 0:11:57.319
<v Speaker 1>and lays it right at the rim. He's got the

0:11:57.400 --> 0:12:00.200
<v Speaker 1>last two baskets for the Sixers. Samwich around that break

0:12:00.240 --> 0:12:03.720
<v Speaker 1>between the third and the fourth quarters, Joel now twelve points,

0:12:03.840 --> 0:12:07.920

0:12:07.960 --> 0:12:10.559
<v Speaker 1>The Sixers game highly would be moments into the fourth

0:12:10.600 --> 0:12:13.400
<v Speaker 1>at eighty eight to sixty. They led ninety to sixty

0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:16.679
<v Speaker 1>two and then the time he didn't. This one turned

0:12:16.800 --> 0:12:19.839
<v Speaker 1>dramatically as the heat would rip off a total of

0:12:20.080 --> 0:12:23.960
<v Speaker 1>seventeen consecutive points to put the pressure on the seventy

0:12:24.040 --> 0:12:28.160

0:12:36.559 --> 0:12:39.360
<v Speaker 1>slicing it to a six point margin at ninety seven

0:12:39.559 --> 0:12:43.160
<v Speaker 1>to ninety one, the two All Star weekend bound prospects

0:12:43.280 --> 0:12:46.120

<v Speaker 1>Ebad and Miami takes time. Sixers got a stop. Next

0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:02.240
<v Speaker 1>trip down the floor, sivens well eight goes to Joel

0:13:02.600 --> 0:13:04.880
<v Speaker 1>if beat with five fakes on out of bio foot

0:13:04.960 --> 0:13:08.199

<v Speaker 1>Eastern Conference win. Final notes in the final stat sheet

0:13:35.360 --> 0:13:37.439
