WEBVTT - The BroadCast 12/10/18 - Rewind Vs. Pistons 0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:03.960 This is seventy Sixers. Rewind time now to listen back 0:00:03.960 --> 0:00:08.080 to postgame reaction from the team's most recent game. He's 0:00:08.119 --> 0:00:12.479 the Philadelphia seventy Sixers postgame show. Let it be swats 0:00:12.480 --> 0:00:16.759 about the glass seventh damn he rosen down over to 0:00:16.840 --> 0:00:20.880 JJ three ball. It's good running crops the Sixers postgame 0:00:20.960 --> 0:00:25.759 show right now. On ninety seven five, the fanatic Joel 0:00:25.840 --> 0:00:28.440 Embiid was back. He was big for the seventy Sixers 0:00:28.440 --> 0:00:31.160 with twenty four points, eight rebounds and a plus thirty 0:00:31.240 --> 0:00:33.600 rating in the Sixers one sixteen one or two victory 0:00:33.640 --> 0:00:36.639 over the Detroit Pistons. The bench was exceptional, as well 0:00:36.640 --> 0:00:38.800 as Brian Selzer saying went up from the center, we're 0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:41.240 gonna join in progress. Brett Brown, who was just finished 0:00:41.280 --> 0:00:44.159 saying he's not aware of how long Jimmy Butler might 0:00:44.200 --> 0:00:46.920 be out with a groin strain, which he was diagnosed 0:00:46.920 --> 0:00:51.600 with after the first quarter. So here's Brett move. That 0:00:51.720 --> 0:00:54.960 was a mentality, and I thought his second step that 0:00:55.160 --> 0:00:57.720 one more, I am going to get to the rim 0:00:58.040 --> 0:01:02.320 type of mentality served him well at the beginning. He 0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:05.480 had that mentality, that extra aggressive mentality to start in 0:01:05.520 --> 0:01:10.720 the game. I don't know, I especially Jamie and the 0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:13.240 officive production about it. I mean it was huge. You 0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:15.679 look at the points that that bench gave us. I 0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:20.080 think they had eleven threes, you know, and Furkon came 0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:23.679 in and he was bell ringer tonight. I thought Landry Shammont, 0:01:23.800 --> 0:01:26.280 you know, came up with some aggressive plays, especially at 0:01:26.280 --> 0:01:28.480 the end when it was sort of hanging around. He 0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:31.399 had a big offensive rebounds off Ben's miss free throw. 0:01:31.760 --> 0:01:38.600 But our bench was big tonight. This year, he doesn't 0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:44.080 he's not intimidated by NBA basketball. He's not intimidated by 0:01:44.080 --> 0:01:48.560 the moment. And you know, if you guys want to, 0:01:48.880 --> 0:01:51.200 I don't know how much you paid attention to Turkey 0:01:51.240 --> 0:01:55.040 in the qualification series, but and I've said this a lot, 0:01:55.080 --> 0:01:56.440 you know, he was one of the better guards in 0:01:56.480 --> 0:01:59.120 that tournament. And I think that he's got to bounce. 0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:02.720 He's got he's got a a inner belief. There is 0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:05.160 a swagger that he has where he's gonna make a play. 0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:07.200 He may miss a lot of shots, he may make 0:02:07.200 --> 0:02:09.520 a lot of shots, but there really isn't sort of 0:02:09.520 --> 0:02:14.800 a trepidation. There's not a backdown in Furcon. And you know, 0:02:14.840 --> 0:02:17.200 I thought I thought he just played the game well, 0:02:17.240 --> 0:02:20.760 and he played it with a lot of confidence. What 0:02:20.880 --> 0:02:23.520 did you make of Joel's night? You mean the percentage 0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:25.520 wise he was six or sixteen, but he was still 0:02:25.800 --> 0:02:29.160 plus thirty, which is which is an extraordinary What did 0:02:29.160 --> 0:02:31.280 you make of his night? I mean, you can see 0:02:31.440 --> 0:02:34.120 what I see how important he is to us. You know, 0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:38.240 especially when when Jimmy goes out, you know, you look 0:02:38.240 --> 0:02:40.600 at you look at the team, and Jimmy goes out 0:02:40.639 --> 0:02:43.200 and Joel is still out, you know, you're probably in 0:02:43.200 --> 0:02:47.760 a fistfight. And uh, I think that that Joel Um, 0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:50.959 just his presence and you know, some of the plays 0:02:51.000 --> 0:02:54.200 he made late this spirit, I thought it was exceptional tonight. 0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:02.920 I agree, Duck, Yeah, you know, and it's it's Um. 0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:05.600 And he was sick. We hadn't seen him for a while, 0:03:05.919 --> 0:03:08.399 and you know, he came in. I wasn't relieving, Sure 0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:12.120 he's gonna play, and to his credit, he did. And 0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:15.680 I think that when it's when the game started out playing, 0:03:15.960 --> 0:03:19.480 I wasn't surprised that you're trying to feel out how 0:03:19.520 --> 0:03:22.840 how active he is, how energized is he? You know 0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:26.240 what told did the sickness actually take? And I thought 0:03:26.280 --> 0:03:29.359 as the game unfolded, he did. He kept getting better 0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:32.080 and better and better and started playing, you know, with 0:03:33.360 --> 0:03:36.640 more of a bounce, more of a sort of tenaciousness 0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:42.560 as the game unfolded. Sickness different from the migraine. Um, 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:46.760 I think there was a little bit of flu type symptoms. Um. Hell, 0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:49.080 he will they will be able to tell you more. 0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:52.280 But he he. Um. Like I say, he came in 0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:54.240 today and I was not aware he was going to 0:03:54.320 --> 0:03:58.760 play until late. That was seventy six Ers head coach 0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:01.560 Brett Brown speaking about the status of Joel embiad after 0:04:01.600 --> 0:04:04.400 the Sixers one sixteen one oh two win over the 0:04:04.400 --> 0:04:07.040 Detroit Pistons to move to nineteen and nine on the 0:04:07.080 --> 0:04:10.560 season and win the four game season series three games 0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:13.120 to one. Joel embiats so, as it turns out, not 0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:16.520 feeling all that great earlier today, He missed practice yesterday 0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:18.599 with a migraine. Twenty four points for the big Man, 0:04:18.680 --> 0:04:21.320 ten points in a big third quarter that helped the 0:04:21.360 --> 0:04:25.200 Sixers maintain control. Joel plus thirty in the game. Such 0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:28.560 a telling statistic, you know, sometimes plus minus I feel 0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:32.400 like usually it's a telling, revealing statistic. But tonight that 0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:35.919 was very much accurate of the effect and influence that 0:04:36.000 --> 0:04:38.600 Embiad's presence had on the game. You know, he came 0:04:38.640 --> 0:04:40.720 off the court late in the first half and Detroit 0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:42.760 went on a twelve to three running get right back 0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:45.600 into the game and claw within three. When Embiben is out, 0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:49.120 there is just mere presence of being there opened so 0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:52.679 much else up big for the Sixers tonight. Eighteen points 0:04:52.680 --> 0:04:55.440 for fir Con Corkmas that, a career high fourteen for 0:04:55.480 --> 0:04:58.719 TJ McConnell, ten for Landry Shamon and Mike mscalle the 0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:01.360 bench with fifty four p points in the win tonight. 0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:05.240 We can't forget about Ben Simmons either, eighteen points, ten rebounds, 0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:09.159 seven assists plus twenty one. He was tremendous setting the 0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:12.440 tone in tonight's game, scoring eleven of his eighteen points 0:05:12.440 --> 0:05:14.680 in the first quarter. He was perfect from the field 0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.480 during that stretch, starting the game five for five. We've 0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:20.600 got Tom McGinnis always perfect standing by on the other side. 0:05:20.600 --> 0:05:22.440 We'll hear from him next. Seventy six Ers over the 0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:24.760 Pistons one sixteen, one oh two.

Brian Seltza with you at the center, 0:06:14.279 --> 0:06:17.559 I believe we've got Joe l Embiid and the career 0:06:17.640 --> 0:06:20.240 high man Furkon cork Wise at the day. So let's 0:06:20.279 --> 0:06:24.760 listen in I's kind of tie, you know, uh, the 0:06:24.800 --> 0:06:29.159 other that was frustrated with then resting me um. And 0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:32.599 usually because I know myself all right, I usually getting 0:06:32.760 --> 0:06:35.600 out of ship so fast it doesn't matter if I 0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:38.960 missed a day or two, so I was kind of tied, 0:06:39.040 --> 0:06:43.440 but with a game. As the game kept going, I 0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:46.719 got better. I saw the feeling comfortaball on the court, 0:06:46.760 --> 0:06:49.159 and you know, with the help of my teammate, especially 0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:53.360 to him, we got to win. Firk, this is one 0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:55.800 of your best games as a pro. How do you 0:06:55.839 --> 0:06:57.800 feel out there and what's working for you right now? 0:06:58.360 --> 0:07:01.200 I mean, of course, feeling is really good, you know, 0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:06.359 and also important. Sometimes we are playing good, really good, 0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:10.120 but team most you know, I feel like I play 0:07:10.200 --> 0:07:13.400 good and then we won, We won the game. Uh. 0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:16.200 Things are changing really quickly here, you know, after the trade, 0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:20.840 I started to find more opportunities here. So I'm talking 0:07:20.880 --> 0:07:23.480 to coaching stuff also some of the players our team. 0:07:23.560 --> 0:07:27.280 You know how I can be ready every time? Uh, 0:07:27.720 --> 0:07:30.400 and I was ready today, you know, like every time 0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:36.840 I just go out there and I play. You feel 0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:44.960 like everybody was talking about my defense. Everybody was saying 0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:48.480 like that's my witnesses. Last year, yeah, it was like that, 0:07:48.600 --> 0:07:51.400 But this year, I don't really think so, because I 0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:56.960 cheap improved myself, especially on defense too. Uh this minute, 0:07:57.640 --> 0:08:01.400 it's coming from defense, you know, not just my And 0:08:01.480 --> 0:08:04.760 that's how I feel, all right, that's seventy Sixers backup 0:08:04.760 --> 0:08:07.880 swing man fur Con cork mos He flushed four three pointers, 0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:10.679 a career high tonight in routes to eighteen and points. 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:13.360 He also had seven rebounds in this one. Tom mcginnison, 0:08:13.680 --> 0:08:16.240 why don't we start there, Yeah, Ben Simmons, Joel Ebid. 0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:18.160 They were big in this one for the seventy Sixers, 0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:20.520 but throughout the night the Sixers needed a punch from 0:08:20.560 --> 0:08:22.800 the reserve corn. They got it. They really did. When 0:08:22.800 --> 0:08:27.800 you consider Shammon and Moscala and TJ and you already 0:08:27.800 --> 0:08:30.000 mentioned fur Con, and that was big, and that was 0:08:30.040 --> 0:08:33.800 actually a question posed prior to the game, and oftentimes 0:08:33.800 --> 0:08:35.880 you're you're hoping for one player to step up, but 0:08:35.880 --> 0:08:38.040 to have four guys come in and do a great 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:40.760 job like that and add to the points that I thought, 0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:42.760 that was wonderful. And that's for fur Con. He's had 0:08:42.800 --> 0:08:45.200 some really good games and that's one of his best 0:08:45.240 --> 0:08:48.280 games of his career. Seventy Sixers knock off the Detroit 0:08:48.320 --> 0:08:51.520 Pistons won sixteen to one h two. Let's go now 0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:53.760 to Joel Embid, who, as it turns out, based on 0:08:53.840 --> 0:08:57.000 what we were interpreting from the postgame press conferences. Sounds 0:08:57.000 --> 0:08:59.120 like Joe wasn't feeling all that well earlier today, and 0:08:59.160 --> 0:09:01.320 he had a migraine yesterday, and it sounded like Brett 0:09:01.360 --> 0:09:04.640 wasn't totally certain that Embiad would be available until maybe 0:09:04.679 --> 0:09:07.439 a few hours before game time. But as this one 0:09:07.440 --> 0:09:09.640 went along tonight time, it seemed like he got better 0:09:09.720 --> 0:09:12.120 and sharper. In that third quarter, he had ten of 0:09:12.120 --> 0:09:14.920 his twenty four points, no doubt about it, and he 0:09:15.000 --> 0:09:18.160 got some deep post ups against Drummond. And you know, 0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:20.720 one of the strengths of Embiad's game is being able 0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:22.840 to get to the line and then make foul shots, 0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:26.200 and he went eleven of fourteen from the line. The Sixers, 0:09:26.240 --> 0:09:28.840 I mean the two big areas where they had, you know, 0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:31.560 the advantage was three point shooting. I believe they made 0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:35.280 eight more threes something like that than Detroit and foul shots, 0:09:35.280 --> 0:09:38.360 which was a double digit disparity in the Sixers favor 0:09:38.400 --> 0:09:41.920 from the nine and Ebiad hit in early three and 0:09:42.320 --> 0:09:44.720 he played well. He did here, no question about it. 0:09:44.760 --> 0:09:46.960 I think he was kind of working his way into 0:09:46.960 --> 0:09:48.880 the game. Like you said, we were unawares that he 0:09:48.960 --> 0:09:52.560 was slightly under the weather. But sometimes as the game 0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:54.880 goes along, you get a second win, and you know 0:09:54.880 --> 0:09:57.240 you're able to push on. And he felt, by his 0:09:57.280 --> 0:09:59.360 own admission, felt better as the game went along. And 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:03.080 tell you what, like he has at times dominated Drummond 0:10:03.080 --> 0:10:05.319 over the last couple of years in this series, not tonight, 0:10:05.360 --> 0:10:08.480 I thought Drummond was really good as well. And Drummond 0:10:08.520 --> 0:10:12.000 got that late technical and you know, he wondered why 0:10:12.040 --> 0:10:15.160 while he rifled the ball through the ball briskly out 0:10:15.200 --> 0:10:18.360 toward the official when the official was toward the scores table, 0:10:18.679 --> 0:10:20.559 you know, making the call, and he wondered why he 0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:24.000 got a tea. Well that's why right there. So but 0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:26.720 I thought Detroit, you know, they showed a lot of spirit, 0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:29.719 totally undermanned even as the game was going on. They 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:32.679 were losing personnel. Luke Kannard can shoot the ball, and 0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:35.439 kudos to him because you know he was trying to 0:10:35.480 --> 0:10:38.400 impress their team during the offseason. You get a new coach, 0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:40.480 new coaching staff, and then he went down with a 0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:42.920 knee injury, and that was right around when the team 0:10:42.920 --> 0:10:45.440 was getting together to go to summer league. And then 0:10:45.480 --> 0:10:48.280 the season starts. He's a rugged player. Bang he ends 0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:50.480 up with a shoulder injury, missed sixteen games. He was 0:10:50.559 --> 0:10:53.160 needed tonight, stepped up big for them, had a career 0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:56.440 high shot the ball well, and they hung around. But 0:10:56.440 --> 0:10:58.439 to the six Ers credit, they were able to take 0:10:58.480 --> 0:11:01.120 care of business and come on fourteen out of fifteen 0:11:01.120 --> 0:11:03.400 wins here at home. Now they won nine out of eleven. 0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:06.760 Hopefully with Jimmy that won't be too long of a thing. 0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:09.120 But you got Brooklyn again and then a big game 0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:12.400 on Friday with Indiana. Tom, if you'd like, I can 0:11:12.559 --> 0:11:14.200 relieve you of your duties right now and we can 0:11:14.240 --> 0:11:16.240 listen in to Ben Simmons. Go right ahead, buddy, Thanks, 0:11:16.240 --> 0:11:18.280 all right, let's do it. One sixteen, one h two 0:11:18.360 --> 0:11:20.240 seventy six Ers beat the Pistons.
