Speaker 1: This is seventy Sixers. Rewind time now to listen back
Speaker 1: to postgame reaction from the team's most recent game. He's
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia seventy Sixers postgame Show. It beat Swatson on
Speaker 1: the glass and seventh plump damn heat rozen down over
Speaker 1: to JJ three Bone's good running crop to the Sixers
Speaker 1: postgame show right now on ninety seven five The Fanatic
Speaker 1: a successful home debut for new seventy Sixer All Star
Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler, and he was the leading man in tonight's
Speaker 1: win one thirteen, one oh seven over the Utah Jazz
Speaker 1: twenty eight points, a team high, and wouldn't you know,
Speaker 1: with nineteen point four seconds left, he's scored in a
Speaker 1: diving lamp that essentially put tonight's game out of reach.
Speaker 1: Brian Seltzer with you from six Ers dot Com US
Speaker 1: Join in progress right now. Brett Brown, I'm taking control
Speaker 1: and being proactive versus you know, passing the ball and
Speaker 1: you know, getting other people involved. And it's a I
Speaker 1: can only imagine, and you know the interesting dynamic he
Speaker 1: feels coming to Philadelphia and play in front of the
Speaker 1: Philadelphia crowd for the first time, and so with the
Speaker 1: possessions that he had as far as offensive possessions that
Speaker 1: he shot the ball, he was incredibly efficient, physical, made
Speaker 1: some tough shots. I thought him and Ben hooked up
Speaker 1: on some tremendous plays in early offense and in half quotum.
Speaker 1: But that's a that's a fantastic debut for him. He
Speaker 1: was a bell ringer tonight and just really validates the
Speaker 1: excitement we all have getting him in the program. You
Speaker 1: mentioned as a certain on the court as he felt
Speaker 1: comfortable enough yet that when he guys are on the
Speaker 1: sideline in the huddles to give him. Yeah, don't you
Speaker 1: worry about that. He's um, that's how he's wired, you know,
Speaker 1: and he yeah, I love it like he's he's he
Speaker 1: can talk and you can say, no, I don't agree
Speaker 1: with that. That's a hell of an idea and it's
Speaker 1: a real conversation. It's great. And I can tell you
Speaker 1: that you know, from my perspective, you're on the sidelines
Speaker 1: and you feel you feel about a quarter full with
Speaker 1: the things you want to do. You just don't have
Speaker 1: what you wish you had, and you will have with time,
Speaker 1: you know, walking down the end of the game. We
Speaker 1: live in that, you know, like that twelve one two
Speaker 1: pick and roll and JJ plays and we got some
Speaker 1: good stuff out of that, you know, and you really
Speaker 1: just kind of want to bring him up there and
Speaker 1: like get him involved. I tried it a few times
Speaker 1: with him and JJ, and I can see that growing.
Speaker 1: But you really feel, honestly, I feel like I'm forty
Speaker 1: percent capable of doing some things offensively that you will
Speaker 1: grow to as time permits, to get to really include
Speaker 1: him the way I want to include him. He did,
Speaker 1: you know, and he for sure and you know, he
Speaker 1: he he wants to stay on people like that. He
Speaker 1: doesn't really want to switch and he respected, he wants
Speaker 1: that responsibility, and so trying to have him connected and
Speaker 1: not in some switch groups is going to be, you know,
Speaker 1: an evolution trying to tap into him what he does
Speaker 1: defensively obviously as well as offensively. But I thought he
Speaker 1: was really really good on on Donovan Tonight's ob dallage
Speaker 1: stretcher tivity. What is really really closed? Well, I mean, John,
Speaker 1: it's it's a whole new, you know, gift I have.
Speaker 1: We have that and that that's to my point, I
Speaker 1: feel about a quarter complete, you know, I got we
Speaker 1: got seventy five percent probably more to give and grow
Speaker 1: where we can really put him in some stuff and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, the pick and rolls and I think some
Speaker 1: elbow isolations. Um pairing him up with Joel especially interest me,
Speaker 1: and you can see we lean on JJ so much
Speaker 1: and he gets hammered, you know, on some of those
Speaker 1: actions and reminded me of the Celtic Series. You know,
Speaker 1: it was a physical thing that we really had a
Speaker 1: hard time getting too at the end, and we try
Speaker 1: to just go play in the middle of the floor.
Speaker 1: But with the growth and inclusion of Jimmy, we're gonna
Speaker 1: have way more available to us to walk down a game.
Speaker 1: Brett Brown going heavy on the analysis of Jimmy Butler's
Speaker 1: performance tonight in the seventy sixers one thirteen one oh
Speaker 1: seven victory over the Utah Jazz. Jimmy Butler twenty eight points.
Speaker 1: He was twelve or fifteen from the field, two of
Speaker 1: three from outside the arcs seven assists, just the second
Speaker 1: time this season he hit that mark. Joellenbad finished with
Speaker 1: twenty three points, right behind him Ben Simmons with ten,
Speaker 1: eight and eight, JJ Reddick with sixteen, and off the bench,
Speaker 1: Amir Johnson a good role in the first half with eleven.
Speaker 1: The Sixers had to overcome two tough middle periods in
Speaker 1: tonight's game. They got off to a great start, only
Speaker 1: missing two of their fifteen shots in the opening quarter,
Speaker 1: but they close strong capitalized on some late miscues and
Speaker 1: miss shots by Utah, and wouldn't you know, Jimmy Butler,
Speaker 1: with just under twenty seconds to go, Sixers wound a
Speaker 1: play a call for him. He scored in a diving
Speaker 1: lamp to the basket to give the Sixers a four
Speaker 1: point lead, enough insurance to put away Utah for good.
Speaker 1: One thirteen, one oh seven the final time again. It's

Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler the starring man in his debut at home tonight.
Speaker 1: Brian Seltzer with you from Sixers dot Com. Tom McGinnis
Speaker 1: is ready to and now listen. I'm envious, man, you
Speaker 1: got the nice hoodie on right now. It is frigid
Speaker 1: inside the center. I'm envious of that nice seventy six
Speaker 1: or sweatshirt anyhow, not real hot. And Charlottader it's Tobe
Speaker 1: thirty seven. When we get there, you would have to
Speaker 1: think twenty nine of the teams very envious. Seventy six
Speaker 1: is of a player like Jimmy Butler, and man did
Speaker 1: show tonight only fitting. He got that play call with
Speaker 1: just under twenty sex to go to put the game away.
Speaker 1: That and you know, with everything that we said when
Speaker 1: the Sixers acquired him and that he was a two
Speaker 1: way player, and he did exactly that, showing his defensive
Speaker 1: prowess at the end on Donovan Mitchell and being a
Speaker 1: go to guy. And like I said, Brian just moments
Speaker 1: earlier in one of the segments after the game where
Speaker 1: that side out of bounce play that became one of
Speaker 1: the easiest baskets of the game, and he shot with
Speaker 1: such high efficiency. I believe he only missed two shots
Speaker 1: in the game. And he was just spectacular. And one
Speaker 1: of the things I noticed, and it's it's that old
Speaker 1: deal where you know, we've watched himy Butler with the Bulls,
Speaker 1: we watched him here two years ago, get fifty three.
Speaker 1: We saw him with the Wolves last year helping them
Speaker 1: get into the playoffs. But it's that old deal when
Speaker 1: you get to see a guy night in and night out.
Speaker 1: And the thing that struck me tonight, particularly in the
Speaker 1: first half, like Ingles was guarding him, and they've had
Speaker 1: a lot of battles over the years, you know, when
Speaker 1: especially last year, but it's not like he has this
Speaker 1: extraordinary ability to blow by like it wasn't like he
Speaker 1: totally created a huge separation from Ingles. But he's six
Speaker 1: eight and he was able to extend and get to
Speaker 1: the basket, you know. Like again, it's not like he
Speaker 1: blew by him at twenty eight feet away from the goal.
Speaker 1: He gets by there and then he's making seemingly an
Speaker 1: easy basket. So he's a score. As he said, you
Speaker 1: know himself. He's not the greatest shooter, he's not this,
Speaker 1: he's not that. But he's a heck of a basketball player.
Speaker 1: And we saw a slice of that tonight, seventy six
Speaker 1: ers over the Jazz one thirteen, one oh seven. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like everything you wanted to see from him was
Speaker 1: on displaying that. I think the point was brought up.
Speaker 1: I can't remember if we joined it in progress when
Speaker 1: Brett Brown was answering this question the press conference. But
Speaker 1: if you really watched Jimmy and you know, if you
Speaker 1: if you had an internal ISO cam while you were
Speaker 1: watching the game and looked at him tonight, he was
Speaker 1: actively hunting out teammates. Those seven assists, that's not a
Speaker 1: misleading statistic. That was really a telling way of how
Speaker 1: he went about tonight's game. Well, yeah, I wouldn't be
Speaker 1: the guy to have the IO cam because I got
Speaker 1: it's kind of play. But you want the other guy
Speaker 1: up here, I'll track that. No, I got you. You're right,
Speaker 1: Uh and no, he totally and uh, you know, he
Speaker 1: makes the plays that come to and that's what guys
Speaker 1: that are playmakers, you know, it's it's a deal. They
Speaker 1: can they can score and make plays for others, and
Speaker 1: he does draw a lot of attention. So no, he
Speaker 1: was really solid here tonight. And uh and Joel, like
Speaker 1: I said, you know, was was really good early got
Speaker 1: him followed up cold, he got out of rhythm. It
Speaker 1: almost like to me, just again my interpretation, he had
Speaker 1: a plan against Gobert, and that was he wasn't going
Speaker 1: to take him head on, although he did get some
Speaker 1: baskets down low with him up and unders and whatnot
Speaker 1: later in the game, that he was going to face
Speaker 1: up and maybe shoot going away. He did that. He
Speaker 1: made a couple of earthly baskets and then Gobert went
Speaker 1: out with the two fouls, and then Joel shifted to
Speaker 1: the plan that maybe he had going up against Favors,
Speaker 1: and he wasn't as effective. I think he was trying
Speaker 1: to take it to the basket, be more aggressive, and
Speaker 1: that sort of threw him for a loop a little bit,
Speaker 1: and then he got the foul difficulties and the technacle
Speaker 1: late in the first half. But he came back late
Speaker 1: and had some huge baskets against Gobert. He made his
Speaker 1: free throws and Ben had a good, solid overall game
Speaker 1: and I think initially he was over three from the field,
Speaker 1: but again you look in the high numbers and assists,
Speaker 1: rebounds and scoring for Simmons, Reddick had his moments. Muscala
Speaker 1: came out early and that was the thing. I mean,
Speaker 1: this has happened so much for the Sixers where they
Speaker 1: build up the big lead and then opposition comes back
Speaker 1: in part because of turnovers, and they made a big
Speaker 1: run and yet again the Sixers, with this crowd behind them,
Speaker 1: were able to finish it out and getting their eighth
Speaker 1: victory here at home, and again part of the overall
Speaker 1: process to kind of get everybody in sync, and tonight
Speaker 1: was to me a huge step forward in that regard.
Speaker 1: Seventy Sixers knock off the Jazz one thirteen one or
Speaker 1: seven onto Charlotte Road, back to back, finished for this
Speaker 1: seventy six ers squad. Then a lengthy stretch at home,
Speaker 1: and it stood out to me when you were talking
Speaker 1: with him here Johnson after the game, he was like,
Speaker 1: and this is a veteran who knows, he was like,
Speaker 1: this is time for us to try and get things going.
Speaker 1: The team has looked all things considered relatively in sync
Speaker 1: with Butler being thrown into the play, like there has
Speaker 1: been organization and you know, you got a handful of
Speaker 1: home games coming up after tomorrow, and there could be
Speaker 1: a chance for the Sixers. No, absolutely, And again, when
Speaker 1: you're a team, when you have a good team and
Speaker 1: you're playing well, you want to play back to back
Speaker 1: or whatever. And they realized that the more they play together,
Speaker 1: they're more they're in these situations, the better and sooner
Speaker 1: it'll click. And tonight, like I said, I thought that
Speaker 1: big strides and as I said earlier tonight in the
Speaker 1: in the area of turnabout is for fair play. They
Speaker 1: have not played for four days. Charlotte is waiting, resting, practicing.
Speaker 1: They were, and they've been some great games with Kemba Walker,
Speaker 1: including last week the overtime game. And you know, I
Speaker 1: think the Sixers are anxious to get out there and
Speaker 1: not only to get on a role in general, but
Speaker 1: to get on a roll on the road. They've got
Speaker 1: up their auntie in terms of road victories if they
Speaker 1: want to get to where they hope to be when
Speaker 1: it's all said and done, after the regular season seven
Speaker 1: o'clock game in the Queens City tomorrow night Town. We'll
Speaker 1: talk to you ten minutes beforehand. Okay, thank you, brob.

Speaker 1: stop at home for the Sixers. Let us get to
Speaker 1: the highlights. Jimmy Butler his home debut and wouldn't you
Speaker 1: know it was Butler who put the Sixers on the
Speaker 1: board ben with it guarded by Derek Fabers. Now Jimmy
Speaker 1: turns on ingles down the lane underhand, scoop, what a play.
Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler going right? It up and a reverse layoff
Speaker 1: is good, and the Sixers have tied it at two.
Speaker 1: A strong start, and indeed Butler part of it. Here's
Speaker 1: Joel spinning on Gobert. Difficult bank. But then and the
Speaker 1: time I'm taken by the Jazz, Quinn Snyder said no,
Speaker 1: not again. A four for four. The Sixers lead ten
Speaker 1: to two, and so two was Joel and being. The
Speaker 1: Sixers raced out to a thirty eight to twenty four
Speaker 1: lead after twelve minutes of action, and they would keep
Speaker 1: Utah pretty much at arm's length. Midway through the second quarter.
Speaker 1: Top of the arc, right hand dribble dominating on the Engles,
Speaker 1: puts it up, thanks it in. Well, you forget Butler
Speaker 1: is six eight and at no point did he seemed
Speaker 1: like he had an opening. But he drives and then
Speaker 1: hangs in the air and banked it in. He's got eleven.
Speaker 1: That's why his nickname is Jimmy Buckets. That made it
Speaker 1: fifty to thirty nine Sixers, but the Jazz would close in.
Speaker 1: It was only a two point lead for the Sixers.
Speaker 1: The break fifty four, two fifty two. Onto the third
Speaker 1: quarter we go and the Jazz tightened things up. Donovan
Speaker 1: Mitchell really started to find his stride. Sixers forced to
Speaker 1: play catchup, and they got some tough plays from one
Speaker 1: Marquel Foltz, Bolts guarded by Mitchell, who gave him difficulties
Speaker 1: in the first half. Markl still dribbling, gets a screen
Speaker 1: by Muscatta in on Gobert, leans in right hand lamp
Speaker 1: up and good Bolts choosing his athleticism and his leaping
Speaker 1: ability to lean into Gobert and get the right hand layup.
Speaker 1: And one from Jimmy Butler gave the Sixers and eighty
Speaker 1: six eighty four lead heading into the fourth. Donovan Mitchell
Speaker 1: more points from him and Rudy Gobert early on in
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. Sixers fell behind by as many as
Speaker 1: five points in the fourth ninety five ninety, but then
Speaker 1: they started to turn it on. An eight point run
Speaker 1: capped off by Butler got them back in front and
Speaker 1: down the stretch. Some members of the new Big Three
Speaker 1: were particularly clutched. Twelve on the shot, Hawk Simmons still dribbling.
Speaker 1: One minute to go, Simmons still dribbling. Simmons turns the
Speaker 1: corner into the lane. He puts it up, Rummy out, Nope,
Speaker 1: he made it checked out. He made it and he
Speaker 1: was foul. Ball looked like it was gonna lip out,
Speaker 1: but it went in and Ben Simmons with the underhand scoop,
Speaker 1: he drove it on Crowder, got by one man. Mitchell
Speaker 1: with a foul bench ships into the right hand and
Speaker 1: it went in. One oh nine, one oh seven. Sixers.
Speaker 1: Simmons missed the free throws, Sixers got a stop and
Speaker 1: then the final exclamation points. Ben Simmons will play in
Speaker 1: twenty point eight seconds to go and the game Sixers
Speaker 1: by two. Simmons loves a Jimmy. He touches and he
Speaker 1: gets a left hand lamp. Jimmy Butler right down low
Speaker 1: on Joe Engles Simmons of the great inbound and Joe
Speaker 1: Eagles pointed at his teammates like, hey, you gotta tell
Speaker 1: me about das breed. Jimmy Butler rising the occasion, sending
Speaker 1: the Sixers to one thirteen, one oh seven win. Final
Speaker 1: stats six Or shot fifteen a half percent from the field,
Speaker 1: Utah forty six and a half percent. Sixers plus seven
Speaker 1: and three pointers made eleven of twenty three for the game.
Speaker 1: Utah costly twenty one to thirty seven from the foulne
Speaker 1: look fifty seven percent. Not even that in a six
Speaker 1: point game. I mean that really that did not help
Speaker 1: their cause. Sixers plus two on the glass, they overcame
Speaker 1: eighteen turnovers. Utah committed just thirteen individual notes. Jimmy Butler
Speaker 1: the high man for the seventy six or twenty eight
Speaker 1: points on twelve and fifteen, shooting two to three outside
Speaker 1: the arc, three rebounds, seven assistant, two steals. Joel Embiid
Speaker 1: with twenty three points seven boards, just a second time
Speaker 1: this season he did not have a double double. Sixteen
Speaker 1: for JJ Reddick, five of eight from the field, ten
Speaker 1: eight and eight for Ben Simmons, and eleven for Amir Johnson.
Speaker 1: Donovan Mitchell the game high with thirty one. Rudy Gobert
Speaker 1: he was a minus twenty six in tonight's game, twelve
Speaker 1: points and ten rebounds for the stifle Tower. Seventy sixers
Speaker 1: get up to ten and seven with the win. Utah Jazzer.
Speaker 1: How seven and eight sixers welcome twenty four thousand to
Speaker 1: the building tonight to a sellout crowd. Make that twenty thousand,
Speaker 1: four hundred and eighty five to the building tonight. A
Speaker 1: slight difference, but still a sellout. Nonetheless, it was a
Speaker 1: great playoff like atmosphere at times with fans standing down
Speaker 1: the stretch. Just a terrific, terrific environment for Jimmy Butler's
Speaker 1: home debut. Now, for there any voice the seventy six
Speaker 1: or Tom aginnis Brian Selter saying so long for now,
Speaker 1: have a great rest of your Friday night from all
Speaker 1: of us here at the Sixers Rader Network. You've been
Speaker 1: listening to seventy sixers rewind. Be sure not to miss
Speaker 1: new episodes the day after each game this season, all
