Speaker 1: This is seventy Sixers. Rewind time now to listen back
Speaker 1: to postgame reaction from the team's most recent game, Ario Sharich,
Speaker 1: how about that, you guys had a huge lead, you
Speaker 1: lost it, but in bead was just incredible throughout the
Speaker 1: waning moments and over time your thoughts in general. Uh yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know what'll happened with us, you know during
Speaker 1: the during the death payre of many who lost the lead.
Speaker 1: But I think you know that the team show unbelievable
Speaker 1: carrct at Indian, especially Joel Uh he scores some pretros
Speaker 1: in a krusha moment one three. They got a good,
Speaker 1: very good game, excellent game, and he was the guy
Speaker 1: who would lead us tonight. Team have been together, Yes, absolutely,
Speaker 1: Dare you had another good game shooting the basketball. You
Speaker 1: helped the Sixers had that big twenty plus point lead.
Speaker 1: You're feeling better and it's it shows with that three
Speaker 1: point shot. Huh yeah, I feel better. I've been working
Speaker 1: on my on my shots all the time, even during
Speaker 1: the summer, I was working. But you know, sometimes that happen.
Speaker 1: You know, I cannot, I cannot listen. You know what
Speaker 1: people told can one of the people who are not
Speaker 1: the play basketball talking about me. You know, I'll just
Speaker 1: get work and I know my work will show up
Speaker 1: on the quote court one day. The court here that
Speaker 1: the home court advantage has been terrific. This crowd actually
Speaker 1: helps you guys over the hump at times, does it not. Ah, yeah,
Speaker 1: of course when you've got to this kind of fans
Speaker 1: behind you, who is who they are to like uh,
Speaker 1: every home game they support us almost like a full
Speaker 1: pool arena all the time. You know, of course, this
Speaker 1: easier to play and they are amazing. I'm cool. They
Speaker 1: will continue to coming on our games. Dario, Thank you, congratulations,
Speaker 1: We appreciate it. Okay, thank you, Dario. Shark and the
Speaker 1: Sixers Sixers by a single point in overtime one thirty three,
Speaker 1: one thirty two. Wow, what a game. We'll be right
Speaker 1: back after this. Brian Selzer will join us with postgame coverage.
Speaker 1: We'll hear from Brett Brown outside of the Sixers locker room,
Speaker 1: as the Sixers are now seven and oh at home
Speaker 1: here at the center of the year. They're now eight
Speaker 1: and five overall. Charlotte little loss at even five hundred
Speaker 1: that snapped a mini two game winning streak for them.
Speaker 1: They're two and four on the road and through a
Speaker 1: dozen games, six and six back with more Sixers by
Speaker 1: a point in ot This is the Sixers Radio Network,
Speaker 1: the Sixers Station ninety seven five, the Fanatic. The Sixers
Speaker 1: pull it off in overtime one thirty three two, one
Speaker 1: thirty two. Unbelievable ball game, and Bead was just absolutely stupendous.
Speaker 1: He made eleven field goals, nineteen free throws. He had
Speaker 1: eighteen rebounds, four blocks, four assists, forty two points. And
Speaker 1: he is our Independence Blue Cross player the game Independence
Speaker 1: Blue Cross, Live Fearless and get their power of Independence
Speaker 1: at IBX dot com. So there was a sequence late
Speaker 1: in overtime where the Sixers call time out with seven
Speaker 1: seconds having elapsed on the clock, in other words, before
Speaker 1: they got it into mid court, and I was saying,
Speaker 1: they have to get it in. Well, what happens when
Speaker 1: you call back the back timeouts. That second time out
Speaker 1: is the one that allows you to advance the ball
Speaker 1: into the front court. So that's what happened. That's why
Speaker 1: the Sixers will able to inbound the ball. I spent
Speaker 1: the better part of a break going over that scenario,
Speaker 1: and it turned out with that second time out. Then
Speaker 1: that allows you to advance it into the front court,
Speaker 1: and that negated that potential dilemma or difficult situation for
Speaker 1: the Sixers. But they pull it off. Kemba Walker. Just
Speaker 1: to watch him after the game, a bent down, leaning
Speaker 1: over and an elegant take three. I can only imagine
Speaker 1: everything that was going through him in terms of frustration,
Speaker 1: like he pushed himself to the limit, and again you
Speaker 1: leave the game with a mid back sprain or a
Speaker 1: back issue. To come out and continue to play and
Speaker 1: have the fourth quarter that he did, I mean, he
Speaker 1: scored I believe nineteen points in the fourth quarter. He
Speaker 1: was incredible. He's without question, one of the most entertaining
Speaker 1: and best players in the NBA. Kemba Walker of the
Speaker 1: Charlotte Hornets brought them right to the precipice of the victory.
Speaker 1: But Joellen beat and Ben Simmons and the Sixers turn
Speaker 1: them away. And now the Sixers are three games over,
Speaker 1: five hundred and eight and five seven and oh here
Speaker 1: at home, and oh, by the way, the Sixers are
Speaker 1: going on the road. They are headed down to the
Speaker 1: Mississippi to Memphis, Tennessee in the mid South, and they'll
Speaker 1: take on the Grizzlies tomorrow night at eight o'clock. So
Speaker 1: when be with a forty two point game. Walker finished
Speaker 1: with thirty points, nine assist, seven rebounds. Ben Simmons had
Speaker 1: twenty two point, thirteen assists and eight rebounds. He had
Speaker 1: a huge drive down the stretch, three blocks and two
Speaker 1: steals for Ben as well. Sixers win the game by
Speaker 1: a single point. Full postgame coverage coming up from Brian Seltzer.
Speaker 1: First that we pause and we'll be back after this.
Speaker 1: You're home for the Sixers. Ninety seven five star players
Speaker 1: step up for their teams when they game is on
Speaker 1: the line. At the risk of overstating the obvious, but
Speaker 1: get this. Walker had twenty two of his points in
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter and overtime. Kemba Walker who struggled early
Speaker 1: in the game. He ended up with thirty total and
Speaker 1: twenty two of them came in the fourth quarter in overtime.
Speaker 1: It bad went twenty points in fourth quarter overtime at
Speaker 1: one point in the fourth at eleven in the row
Speaker 1: and b with a career high nineteen made free throws
Speaker 1: a little bit past the top of the hour. But
Speaker 1: we're still gonna pause for ten seconds for station identification.
Speaker 1: Only place to hear Mike Missinelli every weekday from to
Speaker 1: Listen seventy seven five the fanatic kem upe N Burlington, Philadelphia,
Speaker 1: broadcasting from the Exfinity Studio only from Comcast. These Sixers
Speaker 1: work overtime and beat Charlotte by a point one thirty three,
Speaker 1: one thirty two. It was military appreciation Tonight at Night
Speaker 1: presented by Toyota and a sellout crowd twenty thousand, four
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty four on hand, and they really helped
Speaker 1: the Sixers down the stretch. Seven and oh now at
Speaker 1: home for the Sixers in bead with an incredible night
Speaker 1: in many areas including forty two points, eighteen rebounds, four assists,
Speaker 1: four blocks. Simmons twenty two points, thirteen assists, eight rebounds.
Speaker 1: JJ Reddick was seventeen, which is writ in line with
Speaker 1: what he averages coming to the had seven points, four blocks,
Speaker 1: three rebounds. He had five fouls and was able to
Speaker 1: play down the stretch. He had two key plays where
Speaker 1: Charlotte appeared to have a layup. It was in the
Speaker 1: half court, but it was still like a breakaway layup,
Speaker 1: and he was able to knock the ball once off
Speaker 1: Walker and once off Malik Monk, and he did that
Speaker 1: with five fouls and that led the turnovers. But the
Speaker 1: turnover difference in the game, the Sixers had ten more turnovers,
Speaker 1: and this was from the onset where this was a
Speaker 1: glaring differential. And in the end, the points off turnovers
Speaker 1: favored Charlotte. They scored thirty one points off the six
Speaker 1: or seven turnovers and the Sixers had seven points. So
Speaker 1: think of that, thirty one points off the Sixers turn overs,
Speaker 1: but the Sixers got fifty points in the paint. They
Speaker 1: made a dozen threes, did a turnmentous job in fast
Speaker 1: break points going on eleven of twelve. And speaking of
Speaker 1: great job, Jerry Monzo did a great job with our
Speaker 1: stats tonight Marty Dickerson, our engineer, Tyler's Julian Sam Fletcher
Speaker 1: back at the station, Brian Selzer will have postgame coverage.
Speaker 1: An exciting overtime victory for the Sixers. They beat in
Speaker 1: Charlotte now twice but by a total of three points,
Speaker 1: and both games have been here at the Center. The
Speaker 1: Sixers will be in Charlotte on November seventeenth, and their

Speaker 1: on ninety seven five The Fanatic. The seventy Sixers survive
Speaker 1: in overtime one thirty three, one thirty two over the
Speaker 1: Charlotte Hornets, second straight win, fourth and the last five.
Speaker 1: Joel Ebad forty two points eighteen rebounds, outlasting Kemba Walker
Speaker 1: in his thirty my name is Brian Seltral. It's here
Speaker 1: now in progress from Brett Brown three point shot, you know,
Speaker 1: and Kemba does that. Kemba really does that. We started
Speaker 1: blitzing him at the end of regulation. But you know,
Speaker 1: in general, I think that when you look at like
Speaker 1: the the the what was it a thirty five point
Speaker 1: third period? You know, I think they had six or
Speaker 1: seven threes in that period. And when we spoke at
Speaker 1: the start of the game, you know, we all came
Speaker 1: in and said, what is It's the three point line
Speaker 1: and some offensive rebounding thing in Kemba. Um, they they
Speaker 1: put points up, they're hard to guard, and he's really
Speaker 1: hard to guard, not really, d not really, you know.
Speaker 1: I I brought him back probably, I mean it would
Speaker 1: sound like really, but it's true, probably forty five seconds
Speaker 1: a minute, maybe a minute earlier than I would normally
Speaker 1: in that fourth period. And then you know, you get
Speaker 1: into overtime and you do what what what what we do? Um?
Speaker 1: But no, I wished I didn't have to play him
Speaker 1: that many minutes five minutes of time. But we're see.
Speaker 1: I mean, I did feel like there were some times
Speaker 1: we could have put the put the game away, put
Speaker 1: the game away. I thought, in general, you know, we uh,
Speaker 1: I mean, I'd like to say we guarded better than
Speaker 1: the stat lines are showing. I think that we rebounded
Speaker 1: quite well. You know. I think that that we we
Speaker 1: found a way to win. And that's sort of the
Speaker 1: simplest way you can say it. I think we were
Speaker 1: you know, they were up five with a minute seventeen,
Speaker 1: and you know, to the guy's credit, we we we
Speaker 1: executed some stuff on side out of bounds. You know,
Speaker 1: we went ran a quick play that Joel, the three
Speaker 1: point shot that Joel made. You know, it's a little
Speaker 1: bit broken up, but the guys did well. I give
Speaker 1: them credit. But in general, to be in that position
Speaker 1: after holding a twenty one point lead, you know, you
Speaker 1: you leave here, you know, happy for sure for the win,
Speaker 1: but not like this is great. We're right on track.
Speaker 1: We're doing some good things, but we uh, we got
Speaker 1: a long ways to go. Stuff. Um maybe you know
Speaker 1: my answers normally is let's try to hoist Joel. You know,
Speaker 1: let's put JJ in, Ben in some stuff. Let's bring
Speaker 1: you know, JJ off Pinned down. Scoring is not the problem,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm happy with one hundred and thirty three points. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, and I feel like some of the the
Speaker 1: the shots that we missed, you know, you'd like to
Speaker 1: have back. But maybe like I didn't feel that. I
Speaker 1: felt the pain of defense. I felt the pain of kemba.
Speaker 1: I felt the three point pain way more than than
Speaker 1: I did. We were struggling to score. Um, I felt
Speaker 1: like we missed shots, but I felt like a lot
Speaker 1: of them were good looks. Seventy six Ers head coach
Speaker 1: Brett Brown after tonight's one thirty three, one thirty two
Speaker 1: victory of the Charlotte Hornets. Seventy six Ers now eight
Speaker 1: and five on the season, Charlotte six and six. This
Speaker 1: one went to overtime. I had to pause for a
Speaker 1: second trying I think of the right adjectives use to
Speaker 1: describe this game. Grind it out for certain, resilient in
Speaker 1: some ways, yes, survival mode for sure, as you heard
Speaker 1: in those comments from Brett Brown, or maybe you just
Speaker 1: jumped in the car and are tuning in at this
Speaker 1: very moment. Six was led by twenty one points in
Speaker 1: the third quarter, and all of a sudden, with thunder
Speaker 1: a minute and a half to go in the fourth quarter,
Speaker 1: they were down one seventeen to one twelve. But of
Speaker 1: all the great gifts that Joel Embid gives, there are
Speaker 1: a plentiful mendy. He gets the foul line and is
Speaker 1: just get to the foul line. He makes his shots,
Speaker 1: and he doesn't just make his shots, he makes them
Speaker 1: at an exceptionally efficient rate. Tonight he was nineteen to
Speaker 1: twenty two from the free throw line in a game
Speaker 1: that featured a bunch of twists and turns. I don't
Speaker 1: want to simplify things too much, but to a largely
Speaker 1: that won the six of the game. Forty two points
Speaker 1: eighteen rebounds were joelt totally dependable and bankable. Between the
Speaker 1: fourth and overtime periods, Joellen Beads, scoring twenty one of
Speaker 1: his forty two points during that stretch. He was also
Speaker 1: a fourteen of sixteen from the line during that period
Speaker 1: of the game. Just amazing from the big man. He
Speaker 1: was a third leading scorer coming to tonight. Kemba Walker
Speaker 1: was the second in the league. Walker went for thirty
Speaker 1: twenty two of those after the third quarter. So you
Speaker 1: have two all stars going back and forth, and the
Speaker 1: seventy sixers, as Brett said, they rebounded the ball better.
Speaker 1: They were plus seven on the glass, their defense locked
Speaker 1: in when it had to. Turnovers still an issue in
Speaker 1: tonight's game, but the Sixers remain undefeated at home. They
Speaker 1: win their second straight, fourth out of the last five.
Speaker 1: Still unbeaten at the Center, and you know what, it's
Speaker 1: going to be a tough back Tobacco into Memphis for
Speaker 1: a game tomorrow night. For certain, not an easy place
Speaker 1: to play in Memphis. Looking better this year than it
Speaker 1: was last year, but an opportunity for the Sixers to
Speaker 1: jump into things and get more momentum as we close
Speaker 1: out the first month in the season. Tom McGinnis put
Speaker 1: in a long night that he's standing by well here

Speaker 1: three three nine seven six seven six from up twenty
Speaker 1: one to down five in the second half to a
Speaker 1: one point one thirty three one thirty two overtime victory,
Speaker 1: A good outcome for the seventy sixers. Adventuresome, to say
Speaker 1: the least, herculean effort by the big Man. We joined
Speaker 1: Tom McGinnis who called this one tonight. The highlights of
Speaker 1: course Tom forty two and eighteen from Joel Bead four
Speaker 1: blocks as well Ben Simmons twenty two points, thirteen assists,
Speaker 1: eight rebounds. Why don't we start with the way those two,
Speaker 1: in particular began things in the third quarter. It was
Speaker 1: like assault after assault on the rim, really impressive dunks,
Speaker 1: and the Sixers were up by twenty one points at
Speaker 1: one point in that period. It felt like they could
Speaker 1: do no wrong and Beid went out and the game turned.
Speaker 1: No doubt about it. I mean, it's it's like a
Speaker 1: blessed scene and a curse, and that is the Sixers
Speaker 1: are able to build up these substantial leads, which they
Speaker 1: did on multiple occasions. Last year, and yet there are
Speaker 1: times when they're unable to hold the leads. And again
Speaker 1: the NBA game, it's a long time. Charlotte came in,
Speaker 1: they had six threes in the third quarter, and their
Speaker 1: reserve unit with Monk and Bacon and Bridges, those guys,
Speaker 1: kid Gilchris came in. Those guys gave them some energy
Speaker 1: and they were making shots. And then so that's your take.
Speaker 1: The third and you know, the Sixers, they got it
Speaker 1: down to eleven. I think it was ninety six eighty
Speaker 1: five Sixers after three and then the fourth quarter the
Speaker 1: Sixers went over six and a half minutes without a
Speaker 1: field goal, and Bead had thirteen points in a row.
Speaker 1: And if he's not getting into the line and making
Speaker 1: the free throws, then this is what they'd gotten away
Speaker 1: from the Sixers. But there were so many fouls. Frankly,
Speaker 1: I thought there were too many files on both teams,
Speaker 1: and it was ridiculous. I mean, you can't get a
Speaker 1: rebound after a free throw without a foul anymore. It
Speaker 1: was just and then the slightest little brush and another file.
Speaker 1: I mean in the crowd got a little upset by
Speaker 1: it and under it totally broke up the rhythm of
Speaker 1: the game, and you'd have to say it kind of.
Speaker 1: I thought maybe it benefited Charlotte just because the Sixers
Speaker 1: had been on a dominant role. But Joel was just
Speaker 1: I mean, this is why he gets paid in the
Speaker 1: big big Bucks, this is why he's an All Star.
Speaker 1: He was a dominant player tonight and you watched two
Speaker 1: of the best players in basketball and Walker for them.
Speaker 1: Walker had like nineteen of his points in the fourth
Speaker 1: quarter and overtime he had thirty. He struggled throughout much
Speaker 1: of the game, and I think he was hindered with
Speaker 1: that back. Like I said, you don't leave the game,
Speaker 1: but a lower back sprain or a mid back sprain,
Speaker 1: however they referred to it and come back one hundred
Speaker 1: percent without that bothering you. And yet he was able
Speaker 1: to purse some of his shots when he did get
Speaker 1: back in the game where he had that onunch his
Speaker 1: first shot literally what about thirty feet in the air
Speaker 1: and sailed over the basket. You're like, whoa. And then
Speaker 1: in Bead had a great block on Walkers shortly thereafter.
Speaker 1: But then Joel he had twenty of his twenty two.
Speaker 1: I mean, he had forty two, but in the overtime
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, and Simmons to your point talking
Speaker 1: about the third he had a huge drive down the
Speaker 1: stretch and Ben made two free throws with the game
Speaker 1: of the line Dary who had another big night in
Speaker 1: terms of four to three point field goals. Covington struggled
Speaker 1: from the field, but he was able to stay in
Speaker 1: there and guard with five fouls. Brett Brown during the
Speaker 1: postgame said they mixed it up a little bit. They
Speaker 1: blitzed Kemba Walker, which is to say they doubled him,
Speaker 1: showed him a different look at the ball of his hands,
Speaker 1: and the Sixes were able to get away with a
Speaker 1: one point overtime victory one thirty three, one thirty two
Speaker 1: the final score. I'm not sure how much you can
Speaker 1: talk about it on old sports radio, but Joel and
Speaker 1: Bead after tonight, if I've done my quicker arithmetic correctly,
Speaker 1: he is one hundred twelve for one hundred and thirty
Speaker 1: seven from the free throw line. Set another way, he's
Speaker 1: only missed twenty five times going to the line that
Speaker 1: many times, almost one hundred and fifty times through thirteen games.
Speaker 1: His makes and his takes leave the NBA and yeah,
Speaker 1: he's at some variation of seven plus feet tall. It's
Speaker 1: really amazing. And you've said it before, to have your
Speaker 1: best player, now JJ's the best free throw should or
Speaker 1: be one of your best free throw shooters. Like I said,
Speaker 1: he preserved the victory, he got the sixers back in
Speaker 1: at the nine. He made nineteen free throws, a career best.
Speaker 1: And you know he takes a beating, you know, like
Speaker 1: he gets some calls, but he's very good at drawing fouls.
Speaker 1: In terms of the way he drops that ball below
Speaker 1: his waist. We call it a rip through move, swinging
Speaker 1: the ball left the right, where he's holding the ball
Speaker 1: firmly and basically luring the defender to try to reach
Speaker 1: for it or at least when they had their arms
Speaker 1: outstretched on defense, you know, putting himself in a position
Speaker 1: to draw the foul. But he was really good. And
Speaker 1: at the other end, we just it's hard to quantify
Speaker 1: because it's not just blocks. It's like I said, when
Speaker 1: a guy pulls up short, when a guy drives, gets
Speaker 1: by the initial defender, one of the opposing players, and
Speaker 1: then oh they got to look over their shoulder, wears
Speaker 1: and beat. It's always at the top of your mind,
Speaker 1: that is. That's one of the reasons the Sixers are
Speaker 1: one of the best defensive teams. I mean, right there,
Speaker 1: they've got this incredible force down though rim protector has
Speaker 1: the blocks, but again forces a lot of missus and
Speaker 1: forces guys to do something that's out of their comfort zone.
Speaker 1: Maybe they pull up a little earlier than they would
Speaker 1: like to in terms of their shot forces, wrap around passes,
Speaker 1: in traffic, I mean, recovers. He's just he's been a
Speaker 1: terrific player, and really, like I know, there's so many
Speaker 1: great players, and there's so many people having tremendous seasons
Speaker 1: thus far, early ten plus games in, but he's playing
Speaker 1: at an MVP level and the Sixers needed every single
Speaker 1: ounce of his energy here tonight, and he delivered big time.
Speaker 1: Forty two points, eighteen rebounds, four assists and four blocks shots.
Speaker 1: You mentioned this point in time, and you've been doing
Speaker 1: it long enough where you know the rhythm. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is gonna be You would think it figures would
Speaker 1: be a massive challenge for the seventy six Ers, not
Speaker 1: just the fact that there's another game tomorrow and not
Speaker 1: just the fact that it's on the road. But you
Speaker 1: don't often see the length of distance in between back
Speaker 1: to back game Sixers in Memphis tomorrow night against the
Speaker 1: team playing really well. Well, they're undefeated at home. JB.
Speaker 1: Bickerstaff has retained the job down there. They're slowing things down,
Speaker 1: you know. I don't know if it's what do they
Speaker 1: call the ground and grind and pound or the grindhouse
Speaker 1: or whatever. I don't know if it's back to those days,
Speaker 1: but you know they are. They're doing a lot better.
Speaker 1: They're they're a top their division. It's Conley and Gasol
Speaker 1: are still two of the best players in the NBA.
Speaker 1: And they got Jackson who had a tremendous game with
Speaker 1: four blocks in their most recent game. So yeah, no,
Speaker 1: it's a difficult ball game. The only you know, one
Speaker 1: possible saving grace is at Central time, so you gain
Speaker 1: an hour, but no doubt, and this is it. I mean,
Speaker 1: there's another tough back to back coming up in December
Speaker 1: where the Sixers play a late afternoon game in Cleveland
Speaker 1: and then go to San Anton only will play a
Speaker 1: six o'clock game. So when the schedule comes out in
Speaker 1: early August, you can you can circle a few games
Speaker 1: that are going to be difficult, but you know the
Speaker 1: Sixers will, they'll rest up, try to get some sleep
Speaker 1: on the plane and get after it. They're they're playing well,
Speaker 1: and like you said, they've won four or five. They
Speaker 1: remain perfect here at home. Great tests. Obviously Miami and
Speaker 1: Orlando won't be easy down there in Florida, but that's
Speaker 1: part of it. And then they come back and play
Speaker 1: a great Utah team. You knew that we're going to
Speaker 1: have a difficult schedule coming in, you know, in terms
Speaker 1: of the opponents that's been the case. But when you're
Speaker 1: playing well, you want to continue to play in the
Speaker 1: sixth Look, the Sixers are still trying to establish a rhythm,
Speaker 1: so when you're winning, hopefully you can get a little
Speaker 1: momentum going. But no doubt, a difficult ball game. But
Speaker 1: one thing, you know, tremendous opportunity tonight, great game in
Speaker 1: front of this crowd. The crowd, help the fans, help
Speaker 1: the team again, and they pulled it out. Tom Thank
Speaker 1: you very much. Talk to you tomorrow. Thank you, Brian.

Speaker 1: I thought he played real well on both ends of
Speaker 1: the court, showing a lot of his verse satility and
Speaker 1: subtle things that helped Sixers and the Hornets tied up
Speaker 1: at thirty three after a quarter of play. In the second,
Speaker 1: Ben Simmons helped open things up Walker with an air ball.
Speaker 1: I don't think he's one hundred percent Ben on the
Speaker 1: runout Bam, two hands slam, Ben Simmons. Simmons comes in
Speaker 1: from the landing fifty eight forty one seventy six ers.
Speaker 1: They were up by fifteen sixty five fifty at intermission,
Speaker 1: and that lead only grew early on in the third,

Speaker 1: big guy roaming down and getting the slam. Joe Well
Speaker 1: and beat and Ben Simmons running rough shot on the
Speaker 1: Charlotte Hornets. Yeah, they were just crushing them, attacking the basket.
Speaker 1: Deet made it seventy five fifty seven time out Hornets sixers.
Speaker 1: Their lead would begin to dwindle. They were up by
Speaker 1: only eleven after being in front by as many as
Speaker 1: twenty one going into the fourth, ninety six to eighty five.
Speaker 1: And wouldn't you know if kemba Walker catching fire whistles,
Speaker 1: slowing down the pace of the game, he'd be the
Speaker 1: Hornets that jumped in front one seventeen one twelve with
Speaker 1: about a minute and a half to go. Joel and
Speaker 1: Bead he can do a lot, and he certainly did
Speaker 1: that tonight. Ben with a download right against Michael kick Gill,
Speaker 1: Chris out top. Joel fakes and he thought about a three.
Speaker 1: Now he shoots at three, it's up a god. He
Speaker 1: ties in one hundred and seventeen Joel at b with
Speaker 1: a three point shot over Walker. Editorial comment coming to
Speaker 1: your way right here. The free throws that in Bead
Speaker 1: made tonight were so important that we really wanted to

Speaker 1: the Sixers We're going to get on the board with
Speaker 1: some high energy plays. Early on in Ot Simmons with

Speaker 1: now thirty nine points, one twenty three, one twenty one.
Speaker 1: Ben Simmons with some timely baskets late a tie breaking
Speaker 1: bucket to make it one twenty five, one twenty three.

Speaker 1: one thirty two. Final stats. Sixers shot forty eight and
Speaker 1: a half percent from the field, thirty nine percent for
Speaker 1: the Hornets Charlotte sixteen threes the Sixers twelve. Charlotte was
