Speaker 1: This is a playoff edition of seventy Sixers Rewind presented
Speaker 1: by Geico Time Net. To listen back to reaction from
Speaker 1: the team's most recent postseason game. The seventy Sixers dominate
Speaker 1: in a close out Game five victory over the Brooklyn Nets.
Speaker 1: Now they have a date with another Atlantic Division rival,
Speaker 1: the Toronto Raptors up next, in the second round of
Speaker 1: the Eastern Conference Semifinals, starting this weekend up north in Canada. Wow,
Speaker 1: what a game, What a performance for the seventy Sixers,
Speaker 1: punctuating this series with a one twenty two, one hundred triumph.
Speaker 1: I'm Brian Seltered down here at the center standing by
Speaker 1: for Brett Brown post game. Sixers entered this series with
Speaker 1: understandable question marks. They didn't play together a lot. Forget
Speaker 1: the regular season in general, but in particular the final
Speaker 1: two to three weeks of the year before beginning this
Speaker 1: first round series against the Brooklyn Nets. There was that
Speaker 1: tough Game one loss in which the Sixers didn't seem together.
Speaker 1: They began to turn things around a couple days later
Speaker 1: and four straight wins to vault them into Round two,
Speaker 1: culminating with the most convincing of efforts tonight a game
Speaker 1: in which they led by as many is thirty nine points.
Speaker 1: This starting line for the Sixers when it was out
Speaker 1: there in the four out of the five games of
Speaker 1: this series, it had complete control over its counterparts from
Speaker 1: the Nets, and tonight was no different. The Sixers raced
Speaker 1: out to an eight nothing lead time out Kenny Atkinson
Speaker 1: and the Nets. The margin grew to fourteen nothing before
Speaker 1: Brooklyn had its first basket with five minutes fifty two
Speaker 1: seconds gone by. In the first quarter, Sixers lead grew
Speaker 1: as big as twenty three to two, outrageous, and they
Speaker 1: led thirty two fifteen after a quarter, sixty to thirty
Speaker 1: one at the break, and it was just a testament
Speaker 1: to the way this team came together through at adversity
Speaker 1: in this series to end on such a high note
Speaker 1: and knock off the Nets four games to one. And
Speaker 1: now the Sixers are onto the second round for the
Speaker 1: second time in as many years. That's a first since
Speaker 1: two thousand, two thousand and one, and back in two
Speaker 1: thousand and one, the Sixers in the second round played
Speaker 1: the Toronto Raptors an epic seven game series. This will
Speaker 1: be the second time the team's ever meet in playoff competition.
Speaker 1: We're standing by for Brett Brown. After tonight's game, Joel
Speaker 1: and Bead played just twenty minutes, twenty three points, thirteen rebounds.
Speaker 1: He was plus twenty six. Ben Simmons plus thirty four
Speaker 1: thirteen points, five rebounds six times in the game. Jimmy Butler,
Speaker 1: you know, you just look at his stat sheet. You
Speaker 1: see nine points, five rebounds, five assists, three steals. We're like, okay,
Speaker 1: that's pretty good. He was plus thirty one along with
Speaker 1: Tobias Harris. Harris had twelve points, eight boards, four assists,
Speaker 1: JJ Reddick with eleven points. The bench played really nice.
Speaker 1: Boban Marnyanovitch in the early going. He was such a
Speaker 1: big presence defensively for the Sixers, clogging up stuff in
Speaker 1: the lane and allowing Brooklyn no point for entry at all.
Speaker 1: Brooklyn tried to go inside, Sixers gave him nothing. Their
Speaker 1: defense held Brooklyn to twenty six percent, shooting just twelve
Speaker 1: field goals in the first half. Great display all around.
Speaker 1: Seventy six Ers eliminate Brooklyn one twenty two, one hundred.
Speaker 1: Believe we have Brett Brown at the postgame podium. We're
Speaker 1: right about now. And you know when you lose game
Speaker 1: one that can be challenged that notion the is it
Speaker 1: right or is it wrong? We felt like we were
Speaker 1: on the right path, even not playing well and losing.
Speaker 1: We felt it was the correct defensive game plan to
Speaker 1: see through. To beat this team four times in a
Speaker 1: row is really hard and I think that to your point, Sarah,
Speaker 1: we started the game well. I really was as happy
Speaker 1: with the first you know, two minutes of the third
Speaker 1: as I was the start of the game. I thought
Speaker 1: we came out and tried to continue sort of what
Speaker 1: we tried to achieve defensively, Bred Shawn kind of the
Speaker 1: Liberty Bawlers. The organization hasn't made it clear that you
Speaker 1: guys have lofty goals this year. How do you balance
Speaker 1: that against the accomplishment of reaching the second round of
Speaker 1: the playoffs? Say that one more time, please. You guys
Speaker 1: have stated that you have lofty goals this year. How
Speaker 1: do you balance that against the accomplishment of reaching the
Speaker 1: second round for the second straight year? UM, I'm not
Speaker 1: sure how to answer that. Knowing that I can answer
Speaker 1: the stuff quickly. UM, you know, it's like I can
Speaker 1: answer like how I see the world, this is how
Speaker 1: I see it. We have we have a team that
Speaker 1: is slowly coming together, like they don't have the luxury
Speaker 1: of lots of games and lots of context to share upon.
Speaker 1: And so you know, you have Joe, you don't. You
Speaker 1: have Jimmy Butler, you don't. These guys have been great
Speaker 1: on trying to form a team. And so when you
Speaker 1: say lofty goals versus reaching the second round, we have
Speaker 1: more to do. And so this is good. Beaton Brooklyn
Speaker 1: advanced into the second round. This is good and it
Speaker 1: can't be discredited like, oh, you should on paper, we should,
Speaker 1: but you still play against the team that was a
Speaker 1: team they had a hell of ye I give Kenny
Speaker 1: Atkinson and Sean Mark's credit, and so I will answer
Speaker 1: it like that and and conclude with we still have
Speaker 1: more to do, a lot and more to do. I
Speaker 1: Bret M. Martin, Frank Tellower, News Journal. I was wondering,
Speaker 1: like your thoughts on how kind of like the nets
Speaker 1: made you guys, you know, come together as a team,
Speaker 1: you know, especially after game one, you know, kind of
Speaker 1: playoff series and everything, after not having all that much
Speaker 1: time together with the guys. God, I mean I think
Speaker 1: that immediately it forced us into recognizing that we are
Speaker 1: vulnerable if we don't play defense like we got to
Speaker 1: play defense. And I think if I were to go
Speaker 1: to one specific thing, the first game was a reminder
Speaker 1: that we we better guard the way that we said
Speaker 1: we wanted to defend them, or it's going to be
Speaker 1: a long series and one that we could lose. And
Speaker 1: so when you say it brought us together, I think
Speaker 1: that is true. But what it really brought us together
Speaker 1: on specifically is a defense. I thought we came together defensively. Coach,
Speaker 1: Ky Carlin, sixers wire right in front of you, to
Speaker 1: your right, coach, after losing Game one, you're able to
Speaker 1: bounce back it as winforce free. What does that say
Speaker 1: about your team? I mean, I think it's a little
Speaker 1: bit like the the the answer that I just gave you,
Speaker 1: it's it's it says, it says really good things. We
Speaker 1: responded how I hope that we would and we should.
Speaker 1: And I felt, like I've said to the group many times,
Speaker 1: it's land the plane and by time, just let's get
Speaker 1: to the playoffs and buy some time, retain our health,
Speaker 1: get Joel moving in the direction that he's really trending,
Speaker 1: I think in a positive way, and put it in
Speaker 1: tons of time trying to to to be with us,
Speaker 1: like physically going overboard, trying to be with us. And
Speaker 1: I think that that, you know, buying time is still
Speaker 1: the answer that I give to keep what we want
Speaker 1: to do moving forward, and I believe that it is
Speaker 1: in us great on a follow up on you say
Speaker 1: we still have more to do, I mean, when you're
Speaker 1: going in Toronto, you know what your history has been
Speaker 1: like in a regular season, but this is a different
Speaker 1: team now, and what are you kind of looking forward to,
Speaker 1: you know, in that series with this new group. I mean,
Speaker 1: we all understand what the mass says with our success
Speaker 1: in Toronto, and it's not flattering, but it's also not
Speaker 1: directed to the team that we have and so you can,
Speaker 1: you know, credit it or you can discredit it. I'm
Speaker 1: I'm discrediting it. I think that that we have a
Speaker 1: new group, we have a new opportunity. I got tremendous
Speaker 1: respect for the Toronto team. The coaching staff has done great,
Speaker 1: but we're excited to go up there and try to
Speaker 1: fix someone with the mass says lack of success that
Speaker 1: we have had, and it's going to be an incredibly
Speaker 1: tough series. I think that you know, Toronto is as
Speaker 1: good as there is in the NBA, and we will
Speaker 1: be tested immediately when we get up into Jua, into Toronto.
Speaker 1: And when that is we will find out probably before
Speaker 1: the end of tonight or early in the am tomorrow
Speaker 1: as or when that will be. The seventy six and
Speaker 1: the Raptors. We do know that is the second round
Speaker 1: matchup for the seventy six or second time ever in
Speaker 1: the playoffs going up against Toronto. The last time was
Speaker 1: the epic seven game series in the second round in
Speaker 1: two thousand and one. Sixers will be trying to brown
Speaker 1: alluded to change some recent history in their rivalry versus Toronto.
Speaker 1: Toronto the number two seeds in the East, seventy Sixers
Speaker 1: enter the postseason number three, and man, they show themselves
Speaker 1: to be one of the top teams the way they
Speaker 1: wrapped up this series four consecutive wins over an opponent
Speaker 1: that gave them tough times during the regular season. Tonight
Speaker 1: one twenty two, one hundred Sixers first took Brooklyn's spirit immediately,
Speaker 1: then they took their heart, and lastly they ended their
Speaker 1: season tonight, four games to one, seventy Sixers knock off
Speaker 1: the nets in the opening round. Toronto is up next.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that some of the details of tonight's game,
Speaker 1: a dominant, most dominant win over Brooklyn. It's our post
Speaker 1: game coverage and we're just getting starting. As we watched
Speaker 1: the suburban garden nome carefully, carefully without disturbing it, he
Speaker 1: noticed that it moves like not at all. It's inanimate
Speaker 1: and utterly without brain function. But despite that, when it
Speaker 1: goden know me. Here is about how Geico not only
Speaker 1: saves people money but also gives them access to license
Speaker 1: to agents twenty four seven online and over the phone.
Speaker 1: It's clear to them you should switch, because yes, switching
Speaker 1: to Geico is a no brainer. But on second thoughts,
Speaker 1: maybe don't watch garden Homes two carefully. People might talk
Speaker 1: a route in a close at seventy six ers eliminate
Speaker 1: the nets one twenty two. Brian Selzer here at the center,
Speaker 1: Joel beat at the podium right now, shing But no, no,
Speaker 1: you can't say I thought tonight my performance was was okay,
Speaker 1: but that was a great win. Everybody showed up, Joel,
Speaker 1: David Glenham and ESPN. Kenny Atkinson said right there ten
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes ago and said that the six or teen
Speaker 1: that just beat the Nets can contend for a championship.
Speaker 1: How are you guys in your locker room managing your
Speaker 1: own expectations as you move through these playoffs. That's all
Speaker 1: we think. We think we can win it all. Obviously,
Speaker 1: he's gonna take a lot. You got some great teams
Speaker 1: in the league. We are about to play one of them. Man,
Speaker 1: I don't know he's gonna be. The next one is
Speaker 1: gonna easither gonna be Milwaukee or Boston. And then you
Speaker 1: got the West, which is pretty tough. So we just
Speaker 1: gotta take uh one game by the time. Um, but
Speaker 1: we understand how we got all the time, and we
Speaker 1: need especially to win it all. More Joe to you left. Um,
Speaker 1: you guys are back in the second round. No, last
Speaker 1: year it was a humbling experience to go through that
Speaker 1: with Boston. But where would you compare where you are
Speaker 1: now going back into the second round. Just where your
Speaker 1: mentality is and just confidence going in. Um, Man, we
Speaker 1: felt pretty good about what we can do. Uh. There's
Speaker 1: definitely a difference from last year. Uh feel like this
Speaker 1: team is better than last year's team. Uh. And then
Speaker 1: last year we had a great momentum going going into
Speaker 1: the playoffs, and um, Boston just smacked us. Uh, but
Speaker 1: going into this series is uh, you know it's kinda
Speaker 1: it's different because I've seen it. That's my second time
Speaker 1: being here. And last year, you know, we were kinda
Speaker 1: I would say over confidence on what we came. We
Speaker 1: could we could have done. But this year is just
Speaker 1: about uh, you know, respecting everything about the game of basketball.
Speaker 1: And you know, just put in the walking Joe Joe.
Speaker 1: Last year in the in the back, last year in
Speaker 1: the second round, you guys struggle to stop the drible penetration. Um,
Speaker 1: they really gave you problems with the way Jimmy Butler
Speaker 1: and Ben Simmons have been playing on the perimeter of
Speaker 1: this year, Um, how much more equipped do you think
Speaker 1: you guys are? Um Man, Um, not gonna say anything
Speaker 1: about last year's guys. Um, but uh, it doesn't make
Speaker 1: a difference. Uh. We gotta stick to the game plan.
Speaker 1: And uh usually the game plan is, uh to drive
Speaker 1: all these guys to me and let me do my
Speaker 1: job as the best defensive player in the league. But
Speaker 1: if that's the game plan, you know those guys they
Speaker 1: gotta do that best. As far as content in the
Speaker 1: ball Land. I got that back, thanks Joe. Seventy six
Speaker 1: Ers big man Joel and Beat, exuding understandable confidence after
Speaker 1: a blowout one of the Brooklyn nets tonight one twenty
Speaker 1: two to one hundred and Beat, finishing with twenty three
Speaker 1: points thirteen rebounds in just twenty minutes. He was plus
Speaker 1: twenty six. I bring on Tom McGinnis right now, and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hit you, Tom, Tom, I'm gonna lower some
Speaker 1: I don't know how advanced this is, but some semi
Speaker 1: advanced stats for you right here. Seventy six Ers starting
Speaker 1: five put a total of sixty six minutes together the
Speaker 1: entire series, essentially, not essentially, that was four out of
Speaker 1: the five games. They outscored Brooklyn starters by one hundred
Speaker 1: four points in sixty six minutes. Outrageous. And to follow
Speaker 1: up on what Kenny Atkinson apparently said, Sixers tonight played
Speaker 1: like a championship contender. You would be hard pressed to
Speaker 1: find fault in a remark like that. Well, for sure,
Speaker 1: and that's high praise coming from an opposing coach. And
Speaker 1: they were dominant here, particularly early, and obviously that's the
Speaker 1: strength of this Sixers team, the starting five. So that
Speaker 1: is a commanding performance obviously in the last four games
Speaker 1: of the series. And again you have options, but I
Speaker 1: think as as important as anything, and the bid was
Speaker 1: just touching on this as the defense. You know, you're
Speaker 1: doing better on the perimeter. The Sixers made tactical changes
Speaker 1: in this series. They stopped switching everything, they started fighting
Speaker 1: through screens and that allows Jimmy Butler and Ben were
Speaker 1: really good. They were really good on the perimeter in
Speaker 1: this game. I thought JJ played really solid defense, and
Speaker 1: then Tobias and you got the anchor back there in
Speaker 1: and b So really kudos to the Sixers in that. Regardless,
Speaker 1: we watched Ben Simmons coming out of the locker room
Speaker 1: out out onto the accord here and he was really good.
Speaker 1: His father David following in his footsteps. But a tremendous
Speaker 1: performance by the Sixers and again Brian coming in. I
Speaker 1: I didn't see this. I mean, I just coming into
Speaker 1: this game, you know, you felt like it was going
Speaker 1: to be a lot closer. But with the way the
Speaker 1: Sixers dominated early, they really took the nets out of it it.
Speaker 1: And you know, Coach Brown told me as we were
Speaker 1: interviewing here, I talked to him on the court. You know,
Speaker 1: right when shoot around was wrapping up and he was
Speaker 1: talking about breaking their spirit, and I thought the Sixers
Speaker 1: were successful in doing that, And especially when you look
Speaker 1: down at their bench and you saw Russell and did
Speaker 1: with Ee and Lavert and Jared Allen and Dudley and
Speaker 1: Demarrow Carroll some of their top players. Those are their
Speaker 1: top players, and they really they watched as the Sixers
Speaker 1: dismantled them and really solid for the Sixers to win
Speaker 1: four straight to close them out and panic start convincent
Speaker 1: finished one twenty two to one hundred and seventy Sixers
Speaker 1: over the Brooklyn Nets to take this one in five games.
Speaker 1: Would you say the Sixers there is a different are
Speaker 1: around them right now right than we saw at the
Speaker 1: start of the series. And as Brett Brown said, much
Speaker 1: like he did at this point last year, that more
Speaker 1: to do slogan and the notion of the Sixers though
Speaker 1: coming together. It seemed like they did find some things
Speaker 1: going through this series. And no doubt, and you know
Speaker 1: it sounds like, you know, after the first game and
Speaker 1: then a sixty five sixty four first quarter of Game two,
Speaker 1: that that speech by Brett Brown kind of got the
Speaker 1: Sixers going to look and then another you know, little
Speaker 1: pivotal point in this series was well too, really the
Speaker 1: fact that they won Game two, I'm sorry, Game three
Speaker 1: without Embid with really great performances by Marianovitch and Greg
Speaker 1: Monroe filling in for Joel, and they were able to
Speaker 1: hold down the fort and win convincingly in that second game.
Speaker 1: And then I really think the third quarter of Saturday's
Speaker 1: Game four and the ejections and the freakas the fact
Speaker 1: that Dudley tried to stir it up, I think that
Speaker 1: backfired big time on Brooklyn, with Joel and Ben really
Speaker 1: taking off and just dominating down the stretch in that game.
Speaker 1: And then tonight, obviously the first six or so minutes
Speaker 1: when the Sixers were up twenty three to two, for
Speaker 1: all intensive purposes, the game was over. So to your
Speaker 1: point about the stars, Brian as I talked to JJ
Speaker 1: Reddick postgame and he kind of concurred, And that is
Speaker 1: one of the sentiments coming in was can you get
Speaker 1: the chemistry and that grouped together playing in the playoffs?
Speaker 1: And I think it happens because of the intensity and
Speaker 1: the stage. You know, it happens quicker, I mean, because
Speaker 1: it's so intense and they were able to play to
Speaker 1: your point about that lopsided edge in terms of when
Speaker 1: the starters were out there and they're jelling together, and
Speaker 1: now comes a huge test against a Toronto team that
Speaker 1: the Sixers have really struggled with over the years. All right, Tom,
Speaker 1: and we'll leave it on that note about the Toronto Raptors,
Speaker 1: I'll get one from you. Now. We're gonna be talking
Speaker 1: about it ad nauseum over the next couple of days.
Speaker 1: First of all, these are the type of matchups that
Speaker 1: you just ralished from an outsider's perspective as a spectator.
Speaker 1: This is awesome theater number two, number three, a team
Speaker 1: that's had your number talking about the seventy Sixers so
Speaker 1: many of these recent years. But we did not see
Speaker 1: matchup between the seventy Sixers and the Raptors following the
Speaker 1: final pieces that the Sis added at the trade Devilo well,
Speaker 1: and same thing with Toronto. They didn't have Gasol in
Speaker 1: any of these games that the Sixers have played, and
Speaker 1: when the Sixers won here, the Raptors did not play
Speaker 1: Ibaka or Kawhi Leonard. So Leonard again missed like what
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two games and now here Siakam turns into
Speaker 1: an incredible player. It's amazing the leaps that he's made
Speaker 1: over the last three months. And uh no, you're right,
Speaker 1: and overall you're talking about what the fans look for
Speaker 1: and the regular season matters. It's proven and that the
Speaker 1: first four seeds in the East are playing still and
Speaker 1: playing each other, with Milwaukee against Boston and obviously the
Speaker 1: Sixers against Toronto. And you know, at some point the
Speaker 1: Sixers have got to get through We've talked to for years.
Speaker 1: Getting through Boston will remains to be seen whether that
Speaker 1: will concur in the conference finals, but first Toronto, and
Speaker 1: it's one of these teams that you've got to get through.
Speaker 1: The Raptors have been right there at the top of
Speaker 1: the division and they've ruled the roost of if you
Speaker 1: will up there one thirteen in a row and what
Speaker 1: is it, twenty three out of twenty four, something to
Speaker 1: that effect, and you've got to be able to go
Speaker 1: up there, and now without home court advantage, you know,
Speaker 1: you go up there with the idea of gaining a
Speaker 1: split and then coming back home and holding serves. So
Speaker 1: matchups abound. There's some of the best players in basketball
Speaker 1: are pitted against one another in this series, so as
Speaker 1: you say, it is one to savor, it's going to
Speaker 1: be intense. That crowd up there is as good as
Speaker 1: any in sports. The Sixers have not played there since
Speaker 1: two thousand and one in that playoff series with Carter
Speaker 1: and iverson the Sixers and the Raptors, and this shapes
Speaker 1: up to be really a very exciting matchup in round two.
Speaker 1: Tom cannot wait to speak with you in advance of
Speaker 1: that opening game and the second round versus the Raptors.
Speaker 1: Have a great rest of the night. Thank you. Seventy
Speaker 1: six Ers rolling into the second round behind four straight
Speaker 1: wins and a convincing one twenty two one hundred victory
Speaker 1: over the Brooklyn Nets in an elimination game tonight. Some
Speaker 1: highlights coming up next. Then we have divine givens in
Speaker 1: the post. This is our postgame coverage. Your home is important.
Speaker 1: That's why Geico helps make it easy to save on
Speaker 1: homeowner's insurance because home is more than just a place.
Speaker 1: Home is where you have a cute little reading nook
Speaker 1: for those rainy days when you want to curl up
Speaker 1: with a good book but you don't even read, so
Speaker 1: you just sit in there during thunderstorms and scroll through
Speaker 1: memes on your phone and laugh in the darkness. The
Speaker 1: Geico insurance agency could help protect the dark meme filled corner.
Speaker 1: You call home, call Geico and see how easy it
Speaker 1: is to switch and save on homeowner's insurance. If it
Speaker 1: was all seventy six ers you were hoping for and
Speaker 1: a subsequent reassuring performance in a close out game five
Speaker 1: of the first round, that is what you got tonight.
Speaker 1: We're just going to play a hand full of highlights
Speaker 1: because it was that type of evening for the seventy sixers.
Speaker 1: And boy did it get started quickly. Jimmy Butler racing
Speaker 1: the seventy sixers out to a quick start, Harris playing
Speaker 1: in for Brooklyn out top and just steer by Butler.
Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler jam time out Brooklyn. Teddy Atkins said, points
Speaker 1: at the officials, give me a teo, baby. He did
Speaker 1: that and more did the Brooklyn nets. The lead would
Speaker 1: only increase seventy sixers. Wow, it was just a dramatic
Speaker 1: margin did way through the first quarner. Here's to bias
Speaker 1: off the screen. In the lane stops, page fifteen, voter
Speaker 1: got the front but no good rebounded by Jimmy back
Speaker 1: out the Harris Open. Three shot in here bang a
Speaker 1: dagger at early dagger. It's good. By Tobias and Paris.
Speaker 1: It's twenty three to two. He really did as crazy
Speaker 1: as a Santa Dad felt like it was a dagger.
Speaker 1: And the first quarter wasn't even done yet. Ben Simmons
Speaker 1: with a punctuation to add a little bit more to
Speaker 1: the seventy sixers total. At the end of a quarter
Speaker 1: number one Simmons of the ball bid to shoot Ben
Speaker 1: on a drive bab bright hast slap break out broad Street,
Speaker 1: deep hammers and then nine seconds to go. Sixers lead
Speaker 1: by nineteen thirty two fifteen seventy sixers all sixers after
Speaker 1: twelve minute and Joel and Bead kept pointing on after
Speaker 1: the first Brooklyn turns it over. JJ stopped to the line,
Speaker 1: back to a trailing it beat. He'll try for three.
Speaker 1: It's good. Joelle Bead knocks down another three. It's forty
Speaker 1: one to seventeen. Man n it beat stops at poses
Speaker 1: at center court on nine oh run. Phenomenal moment. Seventy
Speaker 1: sixers in complete control. By the end of the first half,
Speaker 1: they would set a new franchise record for marginal victory
Speaker 1: at intermission in a playoff game, and also matched the
Speaker 1: fewest points aloud in the first half of a postseason game.
Speaker 1: Here's jj Reddick for three. He doesn't miss, he scores
Speaker 1: the ball. It's sixty to thirty one. Jay Jay Reddick
Speaker 1: gives us sixers on eleven to two run and it
Speaker 1: was sixty thirty one. Seventy sixers at the break. You
Speaker 1: feel bad saying something like it felt like it would
Speaker 1: be gravy from there, but that's kind of what it was.
Speaker 1: Ben Simmons quarter number three, Paul run a tribble drive
Speaker 1: into the sto Ben Simmons with a two hand jam,
Speaker 1: and Kenny Atkins said, takes yet another timeout. It's sixty
Speaker 1: eight to thirty one, a fourteen old run. Back to
Speaker 1: the second quarter, Simmons with a slam and Joel bead
Speaker 1: he did not play in the fourth quarter. He did
Speaker 1: get this in the third. Here's Simmons, but Joel to
Speaker 1: beat with a jam up top and a two hands stuff. Well,
Speaker 1: that was really easy. Seventy sixers making it look easy
Speaker 1: all night long. In the fourth quarter, things got turned
Speaker 1: over to the reserves. Fur Con Corkbs getting what he
Speaker 1: Can played all twelve minutes the final period for the Gila.
Speaker 1: Here's corkbos a long shot and good fur Cod makes
Speaker 1: it one fourteen seventy ninety fourteenth made three by the Sixers,
Speaker 1: and the Sixers would go on to win it by
Speaker 1: twenty two. Led by as many as thirty nine. They
Speaker 1: shot fifty one percent for the game, held nets to
Speaker 1: under thirty nine, only twenty six percent for the nets
Speaker 1: in the first half, and it was still a game.
Speaker 1: Fourteen threes for the Sixers nets had nine. Sixers crushed
Speaker 1: the nets on the glass by fifteen. They outscored the
Speaker 1: nets in the paint sixty eight to forty four. Sixers
Speaker 1: got away with twenty turnovers. They forced fifteen on the nets.
Speaker 1: Each member of the seventy sixers starting five plus twenty
Speaker 1: six or better. Joel embiid game highs for the Sixers
Speaker 1: with twenty three points thirteen rebounds, Ben Simmons with thirteen
Speaker 1: five and six eleven points for JJ Reddick behind three
Speaker 1: three pointers, twelve eight, four and three talking about three

Speaker 1: five assists, three steals. James entis the third with eleven
Speaker 1: off the bench Boban Marnanovich with seven points, seven rebounds
Speaker 1: in just under fourteen minutes. Seventy Sixers wire to wire
Speaker 1: into the second round, winning the Eastern Conference quarterfinals against
Speaker 1: the Brooklyn Nets four games to one. We don't know
Speaker 1: yet when, but we do know the opponent in the
Speaker 1: next round, the Toronto Raptors. Similar arc to their first
Speaker 1: round series compared to the seventy Sixers. Toronto lost the
Speaker 1: first game at home to the Orlando Magic in the
Speaker 1: final seconds. They one on to win the next four,
