WEBVTT - Rewind vs. Pacers - 12/31/19

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:03.400
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to rewind, they'll listen back on press conferences,

0:00:03.480 --> 0:00:07.240
<v Speaker 1>highlights and analysis from the seventy sixers previous game back

0:00:07.280 --> 0:00:11.080
<v Speaker 1>here in Indianapolis. Has dozens and dozens, if not hundreds

0:00:11.080 --> 0:00:13.880
<v Speaker 1>of Sixers fans are on the court here at Bankers

0:00:14.320 --> 0:00:16.800
<v Speaker 1>Life Field House, so it looks like it's the annual

0:00:16.840 --> 0:00:20.240
<v Speaker 1>pilgrimage to see the Sixers on the road, and early

0:00:20.280 --> 0:00:23.360
<v Speaker 1>on they were not disappointed, the Sixers showing great fight

0:00:23.440 --> 0:00:26.400
<v Speaker 1>early in this game without two eleven bead but it

0:00:26.480 --> 0:00:28.640
<v Speaker 1>was not to be in the end, as the Pacers

0:00:28.680 --> 0:00:32.280
<v Speaker 1>dominate and win one fifteen ninety seven. Welcome to our

0:00:32.320 --> 0:00:34.599
<v Speaker 1>extended postgame coverage, Tom I get us here live at

0:00:34.640 --> 0:00:37.479
<v Speaker 1>Baker's Life Field House, where a crowd of almost eighteen thousand,

0:00:37.520 --> 0:00:41.280
<v Speaker 1>a sellout, looked on, and Indiana running its record to

0:00:41.440 --> 0:00:43.800
<v Speaker 1>ten games over five hundred snap and a many two

0:00:43.840 --> 0:00:46.919
<v Speaker 1>games kid with the win, they're twenty two and twelve ors.

0:00:46.920 --> 0:00:49.080
<v Speaker 1>The Sixers have now lost three in a row and

0:00:49.200 --> 0:00:53.520
<v Speaker 1>they're twenty three and thirteen. Sixers lose on the road

0:00:53.680 --> 0:00:57.000
<v Speaker 1>and Indiana wins here at home. Indiana now fifteen and

0:00:57.120 --> 0:01:00.640
<v Speaker 1>three in Indianapolis, whereas the Sixers are sixteen at home

0:01:00.680 --> 0:01:03.080
<v Speaker 1>at the Center in Philadelphia, but on the road not

0:01:03.120 --> 0:01:06.880
<v Speaker 1>so much. Seven and three or seven at eleven. And

0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:10.120
<v Speaker 1>they've lost three straight games, that game in Orlando Friday,

0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:13.560
<v Speaker 1>the one point OT loss in Miami Saturday. And here

0:01:13.600 --> 0:01:17.440
<v Speaker 1>in this blowout with the Pacers winning one, fifteen ninety seven.

0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:19.960
<v Speaker 1>And I say that because Indiana are led by at

0:01:20.000 --> 0:01:23.279
<v Speaker 1>one point thirty six points. Let's get through our highlights.

0:01:23.360 --> 0:01:26.119
<v Speaker 1>As I said early on the Sixers doing well. Ben

0:01:26.160 --> 0:01:30.200
<v Speaker 1>Simmons goes inside for US. Simmons number twenty five for

0:01:30.319 --> 0:01:32.120
<v Speaker 1>the Sixers, brings at the cost. Now he lobs it

0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:35.240
<v Speaker 1>and he dumps it. He got it to Josh Richardson,

0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:37.920
<v Speaker 1>and Richardson actually lobbed it up to Ben. So given go.

0:01:38.480 --> 0:01:41.400
<v Speaker 1>Those two guys have figured prominently early on the Sixers

0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:44.679
<v Speaker 1>down by one, and they would figure prominently scoring wise,

0:01:44.680 --> 0:01:47.880
<v Speaker 1>whereas they combined for thirty eight points. A little bit later,

0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:50.600
<v Speaker 1>Josh Richardson in the basket for the Sixers, and the

0:01:50.680 --> 0:01:53.680
<v Speaker 1>Sixers had taken an early lead in the game. Sofonis

0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:56.640
<v Speaker 1>filight insteaded, Oh, it's picked up by Richardson. How to

0:01:56.720 --> 0:02:02.120
<v Speaker 1>breakaway slam damn risky, foolish passed by Demonas Sabonis. He

0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:03.680
<v Speaker 1>was on the deer wing trying to throw it all

0:02:03.680 --> 0:02:07.240
<v Speaker 1>the way across the floor. Richardson de nine Lamb deflected it,

0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:11.000
<v Speaker 1>ran it down and dunked it. So the Sixers it

0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:13.919
<v Speaker 1>was a two point game after one Indiana twenty nine

0:02:13.960 --> 0:02:17.640
<v Speaker 1>and the Sixers twenty seven. The Sixers Tobias Harris getting

0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:21.639
<v Speaker 1>inside and getting two of his points in the first half. James,

0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:24.200
<v Speaker 1>and it's the third over to tray ber filing extended

0:02:24.240 --> 0:02:27.200
<v Speaker 1>on the right side to Tobias against McDermott on the

0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:30.440
<v Speaker 1>back down fadeaway baseline right. All of that to Bias

0:02:30.520 --> 0:02:34.000
<v Speaker 1>Harris now with five, So Harris ended up only with

0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:37.880
<v Speaker 1>nine points in the game. Then Norvelle Pell came in

0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:41.200
<v Speaker 1>and has stated earlier Kyla Quinn started and to Brett

0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:44.320
<v Speaker 1>Bonn's point, he had good energy. Pell came into the game,

0:02:44.400 --> 0:02:48.080
<v Speaker 1>had a great block on Demonus Sabonis. Then Sabonis got

0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:51.720
<v Speaker 1>his return and his revenge as he scored it on

0:02:51.760 --> 0:02:54.480
<v Speaker 1>this play right here, McConnell off at McConnell and the

0:02:54.520 --> 0:02:57.600
<v Speaker 1>Sabonis Sabonis goes up. At this time Pete dunks it

0:02:57.680 --> 0:03:01.720
<v Speaker 1>on Norbell Pell and he posed he's fired up and

0:03:01.960 --> 0:03:07.000
<v Speaker 1>sews the call led by t J McConnell, so the

0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Pacers take a lead. The Sixers took a time out there,

0:03:10.480 --> 0:03:12.480
<v Speaker 1>and I'll tell a guy who is silently one of

0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:15.919
<v Speaker 1>the best all around players in the league, certainly scoring wise,

0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:19.120
<v Speaker 1>t J Warren. In the first half he was nine

0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:23.799
<v Speaker 1>for nine. Warren gets a basket and again this second quarter.

0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:27.600
<v Speaker 1>Again I've stated this earlier, but fifteen to two, twenty

0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:30.760
<v Speaker 1>four to five. Worn with this field goal put Indian

0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:34.040
<v Speaker 1>up sixty three thirty seven. He was perfect from the

0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:36.560
<v Speaker 1>field in the first half. TJ. Warren out of NC

0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:39.280
<v Speaker 1>State and ld ain't runner on all and good man,

0:03:39.320 --> 0:03:41.960
<v Speaker 1>he's good. Well, he's worn it good, he's perfect, he's

0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:45.680
<v Speaker 1>not missed. He's got nine shots and nine field goals. TJ.

0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:49.720
<v Speaker 1>Warren with twenty one. So the Pacers led at halftime.

0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:53.440
<v Speaker 1>By twenty four. It was sixty seven forty three. We

0:03:53.600 --> 0:03:56.120
<v Speaker 1>go to the third Ben Simmons here with a basket

0:03:56.160 --> 0:04:00.160
<v Speaker 1>down load on the run to Bias Harris. Pacers cut

0:03:59.840 --> 0:04:01.840
<v Speaker 1>down off. They go to Simmons. Ben Simmons on the

0:04:01.920 --> 0:04:05.320
<v Speaker 1>right hand running bank shot good, so Simmons with eighteen

0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:08.720
<v Speaker 1>to lead to Sixers. He's six of eleven. Good defensive

0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:12.280
<v Speaker 1>played by a Quinn. Harris finds Ben and Simmons laya.

0:04:13.000 --> 0:04:16.479
<v Speaker 1>But Indiana at that point was leading eighty seven fifty

0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:19.320
<v Speaker 1>five and another pacer that had a silent but very

0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:23.040
<v Speaker 1>effective game. In only twenty four minutes. Miles Turner had

0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:27.040
<v Speaker 1>fourteen points and five rebounds. Turner one of his two threes,

0:04:27.400 --> 0:04:29.400
<v Speaker 1>one of his three three point field goals right here,

0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:32.479
<v Speaker 1>Jeremy Lamb open line drive attempt, no good butt, he

0:04:32.520 --> 0:04:35.560
<v Speaker 1>gets his own miss shake Milton in the game. Miles

0:04:35.600 --> 0:04:40.039
<v Speaker 1>Turner from will beyond the arc for threes and that's good.

0:04:40.760 --> 0:04:43.400
<v Speaker 1>Sixers try to hang tough. A little bit later, Tobias

0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:46.640
<v Speaker 1>Harris getting a tip Trey Burke on a drive against McConnell,

0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:49.640
<v Speaker 1>fakes back out, he throws it to a Quinn one

0:04:49.720 --> 0:04:53.080
<v Speaker 1>he'll fire from wills outside and no good so but

0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:56.839
<v Speaker 1>tapped up it in by Tobias. So Harris with two

0:04:56.880 --> 0:05:00.240
<v Speaker 1>seconds to go, scores it and now the third owner

0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:03.200
<v Speaker 1>will come to a close. Harris snuck inside. I think

0:05:03.200 --> 0:05:06.359
<v Speaker 1>everybody thought O'Quinn shot was a last second desperation shot.

0:05:06.400 --> 0:05:09.760
<v Speaker 1>Tobias able to gather it in. Ironically, the Sixers scored

0:05:09.800 --> 0:05:11.559
<v Speaker 1>like that at the end of the first, with pell

0:05:11.680 --> 0:05:15.839
<v Speaker 1>scoring it, but still after three Indiana ninety six the

0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:19.359
<v Speaker 1>Sixers sixty six the Sixers. In the fourth, the reserves

0:05:19.360 --> 0:05:21.920
<v Speaker 1>outscored Indiana by twelve. A guy getting into three here,

0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:25.280
<v Speaker 1>furkon cork mins. Here's cork moons for three. Nice job

0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:29.000
<v Speaker 1>by Netto O'Quinn and built getting into the furkon he

0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:32.000
<v Speaker 1>of the lime green mango colored sneakers. I'm on that corner.

0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:35.960
<v Speaker 1>Here's Tobias Harris in the seventy sixers locker room, addressing

0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:39.960
<v Speaker 1>the media. This game went south. Where do you think

0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:46.000
<v Speaker 1>tonight's game went south? Um? Oh, say, I think I

0:05:46.080 --> 0:05:52.120
<v Speaker 1>went south just with you know, our defensive executions and

0:05:52.240 --> 0:05:54.680
<v Speaker 1>then you know, we had a bunch of miss shots,

0:05:54.720 --> 0:06:02.679
<v Speaker 1>turnovers and a lot of lock of f overall and around.

0:06:02.760 --> 0:06:07.880
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, hell, has the perimeter played a factor on

0:06:07.920 --> 0:06:10.200
<v Speaker 1>the road? I know you guys have struggled from deep

0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:13.880
<v Speaker 1>in the past three games, and I think we're you know,

0:06:13.920 --> 0:06:20.119
<v Speaker 1>we're we've gotten open looks, um haven't been able to fall.

0:06:22.320 --> 0:06:24.960
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I mean then, but the you know, a

0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:27.120
<v Speaker 1>big thing about it is we haven't got enough stops,

0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:32.480
<v Speaker 1>which is then limited in our transition offense, and then

0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:35.640
<v Speaker 1>you know in the half court it's you know, obviously

0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:37.760
<v Speaker 1>tonight it was tough for us to get anything, oh,

0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:42.480
<v Speaker 1>Tobias Harris outside or inside these Sixers locker room, and

0:06:42.560 --> 0:06:46.359
<v Speaker 1>speaking of that, only eight fast break points for the Sixers,

0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:49.600
<v Speaker 1>and not just perimeter shooting. The Sixers only shoot forty

0:06:49.640 --> 0:06:52.320
<v Speaker 1>percent in the game, twenty percent from three making six

0:06:52.360 --> 0:06:55.480
<v Speaker 1>to twenty nine. But as Brett Brown noted and Tobias

0:06:55.520 --> 0:06:58.039
<v Speaker 1>there referencing that it was the defense where the Pacers

0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:00.280
<v Speaker 1>were able to get by the Sixers and then get

0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:02.040
<v Speaker 1>inside and dish that ball off on the likes of

0:07:02.160 --> 0:07:06.200
<v Speaker 1>Warren and Sabonis. That dribble penetration really hurt the Sixers.

0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:08.640
<v Speaker 1>So again, the final here one fifteen ninety seven or

0:07:08.680 --> 0:07:11.240
<v Speaker 1>thanks to Pat Egan and Tyler Zuli, we'll come back

0:07:11.280 --> 0:07:14.280
<v Speaker 1>with one segment and pass look ahead to the Houston

0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:17.680
<v Speaker 1>Rockets game on Friday and the Sixers returning home for

0:07:17.720 --> 0:07:21.040
<v Speaker 1>the games against the Thunder and the Celtics. Al Horford

0:07:21.080 --> 0:07:24.320
<v Speaker 1>moment earlier in the locker room saying the Sixers did

0:07:24.320 --> 0:07:27.240
<v Speaker 1>not set enough of a tone on the defensive end

0:07:27.240 --> 0:07:30.120
<v Speaker 1>as they fall here in Indianapolis again the final one

0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:33.840
<v Speaker 1>fifteen ninety seven the Pacers with the win. The Sixers

0:07:33.880 --> 0:07:37.240
<v Speaker 1>had won three games in a row against Indiana, including

0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:41.320
<v Speaker 1>two here in Indianapolis, but not now, and it's one

0:07:41.440 --> 0:07:43.680
<v Speaker 1>one on the season series, and the Sixers will be

0:07:43.720 --> 0:07:47.080
<v Speaker 1>back here on January thirteenth and then play host too

0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:51.000
<v Speaker 1>Indiana later in the season on March fourteenth at the Center,

0:07:51.040 --> 0:07:53.400
<v Speaker 1>so they still have an opportunity to win the season series.

0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:57.400
<v Speaker 1>But a resounding victory for Indiana here today the Sixers

0:07:57.400 --> 0:08:00.000
<v Speaker 1>fall the twenty three and thirteen. They've dropped three games

0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:02.600
<v Speaker 1>row for the third time this season. They moved to

0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:05.320
<v Speaker 1>seven and eleven on the road, and for now the

0:08:05.360 --> 0:08:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Pacers are tied with them for fifth in the Eastern Conference.

0:08:09.200 --> 0:08:11.600
<v Speaker 1>The Sixers are returning home and then they'll go right

0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:14.120
<v Speaker 1>back on the road on Friday as they take on

0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:17.400
<v Speaker 1>the Houston Rockets. The Rockets are top the Southwest Division

0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:20.080
<v Speaker 1>with the record of twenty two and eleven. Their most

0:08:20.080 --> 0:08:24.200
<v Speaker 1>recent game was on Sunday against the Pelicans and resounding

0:08:24.240 --> 0:08:27.320
<v Speaker 1>fashion New Orleans one twenty seven the Rockets one twelve,

0:08:27.320 --> 0:08:30.200
<v Speaker 1>but they are expected to have Westbrook and Hardened back

0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:32.559
<v Speaker 1>a four then game at the Toyota Center of the

0:08:32.679 --> 0:08:35.959
<v Speaker 1>Rockets are eleven and four on the year, and they've

0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:38.440
<v Speaker 1>won seven of their last ten games and hardened, of course,

0:08:38.600 --> 0:08:42.280
<v Speaker 1>rocketing up numbers that are just an historic pace for

0:08:42.559 --> 0:08:45.199
<v Speaker 1>him and the Rockets and the Sixers will be on

0:08:45.240 --> 0:08:47.040
<v Speaker 1>the air at eight o'clock for that game, and then

0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:49.560
<v Speaker 1>the Sixers return home. It's e Sports Night on Monday,

0:08:49.559 --> 0:08:52.520
<v Speaker 1>when the Sixers take on the Oklahoma City Thunder after

0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:55.680
<v Speaker 1>a hard loss out there in November. And then Thursday,

0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:59.160
<v Speaker 1>the Sixers and the Celtics, Boston's final matchup in Philadelphia.

0:08:59.280 --> 0:09:01.800
<v Speaker 1>That'll be Thursday Day night at the Center. You've been

0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:04.719
<v Speaker 1>listening to rewind, look out for fresh episodes the day

0:09:04.760 --> 0:09:06.960
<v Speaker 1>after every seventy six Ers game this season.
