WEBVTT - The BroadCast 12/5/18 - Rewind Vs. Raptors 0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:03.960 This is seventy Sixers. Rewind time now to listen back 0:00:03.960 --> 0:00:09.680 to postgame reaction from the team's most recent game. He's 0:00:09.720 --> 0:00:14.280 the Philadelphia seventy Sixers postgame Show. It beat Swatson on 0:00:14.400 --> 0:00:18.320 the Glass and seventh damn heat Rosen down over to 0:00:18.440 --> 0:00:22.800 JJ three bonus guard running crops the Sixers postgame show 0:00:23.040 --> 0:00:27.000 right now on ninety seven five the Fanatic. A highly 0:00:27.040 --> 0:00:30.520 anticipated game in Toronto between two of the top teams 0:00:30.520 --> 0:00:33.360 in the Eastern Conference, the Sixers and the Raptors. A 0:00:33.479 --> 0:00:36.559 good contest. Unfortunately, the Sixes fell. Right now on the 0:00:36.600 --> 0:00:39.559 Sixes postgame Show, we head back to Toronto. Here from 0:00:39.560 --> 0:00:42.560 head coach Brett Brown. Correct, I'm just what I said. 0:00:42.640 --> 0:00:46.519 You know, it's when you start difficult to search for 0:00:46.680 --> 0:00:49.600 things that you know you need to to get better at. 0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:53.440 We're gonna need more from our bench. Our starting point 0:00:53.479 --> 0:00:57.200 guards had point guards had twelve turnovers and we're gonna 0:00:57.240 --> 0:01:00.480 need to do better there. I think the Jim Butler 0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:05.319 acquisition is ridiculously exciting. I thought he was excellent tonight 0:01:05.720 --> 0:01:09.560 and throughout the game you could see signs of growth 0:01:10.120 --> 0:01:13.399 and we look forward to to seeing them again. And 0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:16.800 as I said on December the fifth. It's it's exciting 0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:21.840 to to feel and to sort of see, um, how 0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:24.280 good we can be and also the areas that we 0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:27.960 need growth in some of those positive flashes gonna give 0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:30.200 us anymore. In I mean defensively, if you if you 0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:33.240 go and you look at our first shot defense, it's 0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:36.560 it was outstanding. It really was good. We get an 0:01:36.560 --> 0:01:39.440 a half core game and our first shot defense was outstanding. 0:01:40.080 --> 0:01:43.199 But you have holes when you know it isn't first 0:01:43.240 --> 0:01:46.080 shot and there's offensive rebounds and then you connect the 0:01:46.120 --> 0:01:50.400 dots with turnovers and you have some problems. Um, you know, 0:01:50.440 --> 0:01:54.080 I think that that that Jimmy, you know, showed that 0:01:54.920 --> 0:01:57.280 why he's an All Star. You know, he came in 0:01:57.360 --> 0:02:00.600 and gave us some tremendous things. Um, you give credit 0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:04.280 to Toronto Valancunists had a Korean Night. You know, Joel 0:02:04.440 --> 0:02:07.920 was down and there were things in that game that 0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:11.480 you leave excited to to to look back and to grow. 0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:14.679 Where and Wire Digital talk about you know you talked 0:02:14.680 --> 0:02:17.560 about let's talk about Bend and in Jeet. I mean 0:02:17.840 --> 0:02:20.440 Ben almost had a triple devil, but he had seven turnovers. 0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:24.040 Joel was five for seventeen. A few and in games 0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:26.440 like this. You know you want just star players to 0:02:26.560 --> 0:02:30.520 set one. And is also the reality that you know 0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:32.920 it's an eighty two game season and you know these 0:02:32.919 --> 0:02:36.640 things do happen, and it's uh, it's always how do 0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:39.880 you respond? How do you rebound? You know, how do 0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:43.720 you genuinely feel like we're getting better? Um? And I think, 0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:46.520 as I said before, we can better assess our group 0:02:46.919 --> 0:02:50.839 after Christmas. This was a tremendous opportunity to learn more. 0:02:51.480 --> 0:02:55.880 And as I also said, we leave, we we leave disappointed, 0:02:55.960 --> 0:02:59.760 but we also leave I think smarter in the areas 0:02:59.800 --> 0:03:01.919 that we have to get better out twitter HEAs, did 0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:06.440 you see Joel struggle in tonight? Um, you know they 0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:10.040 did a good job of going at him, double teaming him. Um, 0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:13.240 when he went baseline and Spence spun back to the middle, 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:15.720 they came at him. You know, we gotta help him. 0:03:15.720 --> 0:03:18.360 I got to help him more in that environment. Um, 0:03:18.639 --> 0:03:21.000 they did a good job of pushing him off a block, 0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:23.880 you know, probably two or three more feet further than 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:26.760 than then we had holped. And they did a good 0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:30.480 job of pressuring him in general. And you know that's 0:03:30.560 --> 0:03:33.960 part of it. He's that good and he is having 0:03:34.000 --> 0:03:37.400 a year that warrants sort of you know, high level 0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:42.119 accolade discussion. But tonight was just a down night for him, 0:03:42.360 --> 0:03:45.480 and uh and I got to help him. I got 0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:48.280 to help him. That was Sixer's head coach Brett Brown 0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:51.240 outside of the visiting locker room at the Philadelphia seventy 0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:55.200 Sixers fall tonight at so Sco Ship Bank Arena in Toronto, 0:03:55.280 --> 0:03:58.520 one thirteen, one h two. Once again, welcome to the 0:03:58.560 --> 0:04:01.360 Sixers postgame show here and the Sixers radio network. I'm 0:04:01.360 --> 0:04:04.360 Divine gives with you as we go into the game 0:04:04.400 --> 0:04:08.720 overall tonight discussing the loss unfortunately, head back to Scotia 0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:11.160 Bank Arena one more time a little bit later to 0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:13.920 check in Sixers radio voice Tim againness and of course 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:17.440 the highlights to shut down our postgame coverage once again. 0:04:17.480 --> 0:04:21.320 A highly anticipated contest between these two coming into the 0:04:21.360 --> 0:04:23.359 game tonight, two of the top three teams in the 0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:26.440 Eastern Conference, Toronto boasting a twenty and five record and 0:04:26.600 --> 0:04:29.159 the Sixers a seventeen and eight record at the start 0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:31.440 of this game and a chance for the Sixties to 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:35.520 show something against again a formidable opponent like Toronto. But 0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:37.880 the Raptors show why they are at the top of 0:04:37.920 --> 0:04:40.560 the Eastern Conference with this win. One thirteen, one oh two. 0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:44.280 Brett Brown pointed out Kawhi Leonard was just phenomenal tonight 0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:47.640 four the Toronto Raptors with thirty six points in thirty 0:04:47.640 --> 0:04:51.160 five minutes, thirteen of twenty four from the floor, nine rebounds, 0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:53.520 But that does not tell the story. The other part 0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:55.680 of it is the five steals that he had, the 0:04:55.720 --> 0:04:59.800 activity defensively causing issues on the other side of the 0:04:59.800 --> 0:05:03.560 BA basketball, specifically for Sixer's point guard Ben Simmons once 0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:08.120 again eight points, ten rebounds, eleven assists, Unfortunately the blemish 0:05:08.320 --> 0:05:10.880 the seven turnovers, and it just seems like he has 0:05:10.920 --> 0:05:13.280 to figure out the Toronto Raptors and what they may 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:15.440 do differently than some of the other teams that he's 0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:19.279 had success against in the past as they head deeper 0:05:19.279 --> 0:05:21.920 into the season and hopefully in the postseason, and maybe 0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:25.560 an opportunity to see the Raptors later on in the spring. 0:05:25.880 --> 0:05:28.840 Six Ers fall one more time one thirteen, one h 0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:32.240 two led by Jimmy Butler. A strong performance by Jimmy 0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:35.720 Butler thirty eight points on fifteen of twenty seven from 0:05:35.720 --> 0:05:38.040 the field, four of seven from behind, the three point 0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:40.240 line in thirty eight minutes and nineteen seconds with ten 0:05:40.279 --> 0:05:43.400 rebounds to go along with Joel Embie struggled as you 0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:46.320 just heard Coach Brown discussed thirty six minutes but only 0:05:46.360 --> 0:05:50.320 five of seventeen ten points, twelve rebounds, five assists, but 0:05:50.400 --> 0:05:53.840 just could not find a rhythm, having foul trouble early, 0:05:54.120 --> 0:05:56.839 getting into foul trouble late. The runs made by the 0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:59.560 Toronto Raptors and the up and down nature of the 0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:02.920 game did not allow Joe Lmbi to establish himself and 0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:05.400 established the paint like we have seen all season long 0:06:05.640 --> 0:06:09.720 with his strong performing so far through twenty six games 0:06:09.720 --> 0:06:11.840 on the season. On the other side, we go back 0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:15.240 to Scotia Bank Arena in Toronto to hear from the man, 0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:17.800 the voice of the Sixers radio right here, and that 0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:21.039 will be Tom McGinnis right here on the Sixers postgame show. 0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:24.440 Club seventy six is the official season ticket waiting list 0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:27.760 of the Philadelphia seventy six Ers.

The Fanatic 0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:05.719 Sixers down one thirteen, one h two at the hands 0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:09.400 of the Toronto Raptors in Toronto, dropping their record to 0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:12.720 seventeen and nine. The Toronto Raptors improved to twenty one 0:07:12.720 --> 0:07:15.000 and five, still sitting at top of the Eastern conference. 0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:17.720 I'm Divine givens. This is the Sixers postgame show here 0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:20.680 on the Sixers Radio Network. We had back to Toronto 0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:22.800 right now to check in with the man, the voice 0:07:23.040 --> 0:07:25.520 of the Sixers radio broadcast, and that would be Tom 0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:29.200 again as time. Another opportunity for the Sixers again having 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:32.200 a nice run of wins over the last couple of weeks, 0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:34.440 especially with the addition of Jimmy Butler, a chance to 0:07:34.480 --> 0:07:36.880 really show in front of a national audience, and of 0:07:36.920 --> 0:07:39.840 course here on the Fanatic on the Sixers Radio Network, 0:07:40.040 --> 0:07:43.080 a chance to show what they're all about. Against the 0:07:43.120 --> 0:07:46.040 top team in the Eastern Conference, and unfortunately things did 0:07:46.120 --> 0:07:48.680 not go the way we planned. Now they did, and 0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:51.080 you know, they kind of fell part in the fourth quarter. 0:07:52.280 --> 0:07:54.160 You know, to be outscored by ten in the game, 0:07:54.200 --> 0:07:57.720 you're trailed by one going into the last quarter, and 0:07:57.760 --> 0:08:00.400 you gotta give Toronto all kinds of credit. There was 0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:05.280 little plays. It wasn't just Kawhi Leonard obviously Valatunists, and 0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:08.960 Valatunists looked like the Valetunists of old. It's a seventh season, 0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:12.800 and you know, he looked like a young, you know, 0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:16.240 a very effective low post player. And many times it 0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:20.680 was against embat and I can't emphasize enough the overall 0:08:20.720 --> 0:08:23.920 play of Siakam. It's a little shocking when you look 0:08:23.920 --> 0:08:25.880 at that plus minus and he was only plus two 0:08:25.880 --> 0:08:29.320 because he did a whole slew of little things and 0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:32.720 even guys like Delon Wright and Van Fleet, you know 0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:36.000 they didn't score. I mean Van Fleet had five and 0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:39.520 Delon Wright two, but they gave him minutes in terms 0:08:39.559 --> 0:08:43.360 of resting Lowry and Danny Green and the Niche Baca 0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:48.599 was effective with eighteen and the Jimmy and Kawhi that 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:51.120 you could say they kind of canceled one another out 0:08:51.200 --> 0:08:54.160 in that Butler at thirty eight and Kawhi Leonard had 0:08:54.200 --> 0:08:57.000 thirty six. But Devon, you watched the game, and you've 0:08:57.040 --> 0:09:00.800 watched enough basketball, and this is just an observation. It's 0:09:00.840 --> 0:09:04.520 not an evaluation or anything like that. But Kawhi Leonard 0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:08.720 with his athletic ability, like it's like he rises about 0:09:08.840 --> 0:09:12.800 his shots. It's almost like every shot is open. If 0:09:12.840 --> 0:09:14.880 it were an elevator. He takes the elevator to the 0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:18.480 sixth floor and everybody's still down in the lobby. I mean, 0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:22.720 he just rises above the defender and gets open looks. 0:09:22.720 --> 0:09:26.360 He's got perfect road, he's got perfect form and as 0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:29.280 a result, perfect back has been on the ball and 0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:31.360 you're almost shocked when it doesn't go in. He ended 0:09:31.400 --> 0:09:33.520 up missing a little bit, but his first five threes 0:09:33.559 --> 0:09:38.320 went in. Whereas Jimmy's uncanny, He's got so many different 0:09:38.320 --> 0:09:42.280 ways to score. And and Butler's not blowing by, He's 0:09:42.320 --> 0:09:45.760 not going from first gear to fifth. He you know, 0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:49.319 by one guy by another guy, twists inside, gets by 0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:51.920 a third guy in banks and in He's just he's 0:09:52.000 --> 0:09:54.880 a you know, in his own way, he's just as incredible. 0:09:55.440 --> 0:09:58.560 But the scoring comes in different ways from these two guys, 0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:03.360 and obviously they're really really good. And Leonard just he 0:10:03.440 --> 0:10:06.360 makes I've sent it time and again. He makes it 0:10:06.400 --> 0:10:10.240 look so easy, like he straight line cuts, you know, 0:10:10.360 --> 0:10:14.280 on an angle, like he's just he's a very strong player. 0:10:14.320 --> 0:10:16.200 And you know now that we haven't been he didn't 0:10:16.240 --> 0:10:18.440 play against us for two years. He only played nine 0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:20.760 games last year and you know with the Spurs they 0:10:20.760 --> 0:10:22.679 didn't see fit to even play him against the six 0:10:22.760 --> 0:10:25.000 or so we're really getting We've seen him twice now, 0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:27.480 twice too many, i might add, And we're gonna get 0:10:27.520 --> 0:10:29.240 you know, if he stays here, we're gonna get a 0:10:29.280 --> 0:10:32.200 steady diet of this guy. And everyone talked about going 0:10:32.200 --> 0:10:34.720 through Lebron in the East, Well, guess what it might be. 0:10:34.920 --> 0:10:37.319 You have to go through Leonard here in Toronto. They 0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:40.400 were very effective and let's be honest, as Brett Brown said, 0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:43.840 they go way disappointed. This was a disappointing finish for 0:10:43.920 --> 0:10:46.520 all of the excitement that we're a measuring stick type 0:10:46.520 --> 0:10:49.559 game and how Toronto took care of business in the end. Yeah, 0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:51.600 and you talk about Kawhi Leonard and all the things 0:10:51.600 --> 0:10:54.920 that he does well offensively, and defensively, his energy, his 0:10:55.000 --> 0:10:58.760 basketball IQ is smarts overall town. When you watch the game, 0:10:58.800 --> 0:11:00.840 you see Ben Simmon just has a little bit of 0:11:00.840 --> 0:11:03.240 trouble against him because he makes him pick up the 0:11:03.280 --> 0:11:05.679 pace a little bit more, changes the pace more than 0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:07.960 Ben Simmons even once too. And as you pointed out earlier, 0:11:08.000 --> 0:11:10.079 you don't want to do it, but it's there. The 0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:12.640 seven turnovers is something that he has to fix against 0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:16.440 these top teams, right, So, okay, that's that's a good point, 0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:19.800 and that is so maybe Ben gets by the first 0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:22.600 level of defense, say at the three point arc or beyond, 0:11:23.040 --> 0:11:24.840 and then he's going inside. And I thought they did 0:11:24.880 --> 0:11:28.240 a great job helped defensively sliding over and running two players, 0:11:28.520 --> 0:11:31.360 not just at Simmons, but it in beat like they 0:11:31.559 --> 0:11:35.280 Kyle took two charges on Joel and they were doubling him, 0:11:35.640 --> 0:11:38.959 you know, leaving not strong side corner, but leaving from 0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:43.600 the top, and Joel didn't always handle effectively passing back 0:11:43.640 --> 0:11:46.960 out to Reddick. So one thing here and they're having 0:11:47.000 --> 0:11:51.040 a photo op tonight with their president and general manager, 0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:55.720 Messiah Jerry. Okay, think of what he did. He let 0:11:55.840 --> 0:11:58.560 go of the coach of the Year at Dwayne Casey. 0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:03.720 They have had so many straight other than Atlantic Division championships. 0:12:03.760 --> 0:12:06.640 I mean, obviously Boston was really good the last couple 0:12:06.640 --> 0:12:09.080 of years too. But and then he goes out and 0:12:09.120 --> 0:12:12.480 gets Kawhi Leonard. Does that say executive of the Year. 0:12:12.520 --> 0:12:15.040 I mean that that was a risky play. Now it's 0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:17.600 also from their prospective risky to get into the playoffs 0:12:17.640 --> 0:12:20.920 and not advance as has been the case over recent years. 0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:24.080 But he hires Nick Nurse and puts his team in 0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:26.760 position with you know, one of if not you know, 0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:28.920 certainly in the top grouping of two or three players 0:12:29.240 --> 0:12:34.000 in Leonard in this league leading them, and they're they're 0:12:34.000 --> 0:12:38.120 in a very solid position. Now the Sixers have the 0:12:38.200 --> 0:12:41.760 same game, albeit back home. But for the Sixers again, 0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:43.720 they beat Toronto there last year. For the last two 0:12:43.800 --> 0:12:46.480 years they've beaten at the center, and that's where you 0:12:46.480 --> 0:12:48.720 gotta go. You gotta you know, the object is to 0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:51.559 be playing your best, best positioned as best as possible 0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:53.400 at the end of the year, and then be playing 0:12:53.440 --> 0:12:56.600 your best basketball Lord willing with help, and then we'll 0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:59.280 see where it goes. But it's obviously it looks like 0:12:59.320 --> 0:13:02.000 it's coming through Toronto for whomever wants to get out 0:13:02.040 --> 0:13:04.120 of the East Town again. His life from Toronto Scotia 0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:06.720 Bank Arena with the Sixers fell one thirteen one or 0:13:06.720 --> 0:13:09.439 two time final one. When you mentioned Messiah Jerry and 0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:12.280 that Kawhi Leonard trade, the one that really goes unnoticed 0:13:12.400 --> 0:13:15.360 is the Danny Green acquisition as well. When you add 0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:18.600 that depth on the perimeter and you speak of og 0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:21.920 Ana Nobi and Delon Wright and Fred van Vleet and 0:13:22.000 --> 0:13:25.680 all these players, but Danny Green has championship experience, if 0:13:25.720 --> 0:13:28.920 not for the big shot by Ray Allen, we're probably 0:13:28.960 --> 0:13:32.080 talking about in NBA Finals MVP, and Danny Green as well, 0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:34.520 just like Kawhi Leonard, and he brings that to this 0:13:34.559 --> 0:13:36.920 team with the Toronto Raptors, and as you pointed out, 0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:39.040 it now looks like it runs through them with so 0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:42.040 much experience. No, right, Danny Green was not a huge 0:13:42.080 --> 0:13:44.120 factor in this game. He was two of nine, But 0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:47.640 to your point, he spread an Outstanley defensive player in 0:13:47.679 --> 0:13:50.800 this league and he gives you a perimeter threat, and 0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:52.600 you're right, And then you know the other thing is 0:13:52.640 --> 0:13:56.280 he drafted Jerry, drafted Peartle, who was also part of 0:13:56.320 --> 0:13:58.880 that trade, and then it's now with the Spurs, so 0:13:59.320 --> 0:14:01.679 they're good for the Sixers. You know this, if it 0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:04.480 was a measuring stick, you gotta take, you know, take 0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:06.320 under advisement where you are right now. And now you've 0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:08.079 got another big game, in fact, a back to back 0:14:08.160 --> 0:14:10.720 set of games with Detroit. It's not the end of 0:14:10.720 --> 0:14:12.840 the world. Like I said, you know, you have to 0:14:12.880 --> 0:14:14.600 come up here and try to gain the victory and 0:14:14.880 --> 0:14:16.840 try to you know, prove that you can win here. 0:14:17.160 --> 0:14:19.120 But it's not the end of the world. There's certainly 0:14:19.240 --> 0:14:21.600 there were a lot of positives with Jimmy and some 0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:23.840 of the things that JJ end up having a good 0:14:23.960 --> 0:14:26.720 night scoring and whatnot. But obviously the bench has to 0:14:26.720 --> 0:14:29.720 get better. The basketball, the security with the ball, the 0:14:29.760 --> 0:14:32.080 turnovers have to be cut down once and for all. 0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:34.359 At some point, the Sixers have got to get better 0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:36.640 at that if they want to become the team they've 0:14:36.680 --> 0:14:38.600 want to be. So in the end, a tough game, 0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:41.320 Toronto played really well, particularly in the second and the fourth, 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:44.080 and that was the difference tonight. Tom. Thanks so much 0:14:44.120 --> 0:14:46.160 for you, Tim, and we'll catch up with you on 0:14:46.280 --> 0:14:49.400 Friday in Detroit.

And if 0:14:57.480 --> 0:15:00.640 this was the measuring stick, as Tom Again has pointed out, now, 0:15:00.760 --> 0:15:02.720 it's early in the season. So that's the good part 0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:05.440 about it. You're twenty six games and it's not game 0:15:05.560 --> 0:15:08.480 number seventy nine where you start to panic.

As we know talent for Ben Simmons, 0:16:33.000 --> 0:16:35.200 he shows and displays some of that in the open 0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:37.880 floor right here to Jimmy Butler, pricked up by Lowry, 0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:40.000 left hand dribble, leaves over it goes behind his back 0:16:40.000 --> 0:16:42.720 to Butler.

Then t J 0:17:06.760 --> 0:17:09.800 McConnell coming in, inserting some of that energy to Joel 0:17:09.840 --> 0:17:12.520 and bad for a strong finish. TJ picks it up 0:17:12.520 --> 0:17:14.760 sixers across big court. McConnell of the dribble to Joel. 0:17:14.800 --> 0:17:17.440 Joel Si steps everybody get jambs the ball.

Kawhi Leonard keeps it, drives, 0:18:18.000 --> 0:18:20.280 it goes right in it beat and slams it. Oh 0:18:20.400 --> 0:18:23.760 Man high off the floor.

They're 0:18:30.359 --> 0:18:33.200 already in foul trouble. That tied it up forty six 0:18:33.520 --> 0:18:36.800 forty six. Og Onenobi with his own dunk after that 0:18:36.840 --> 0:18:38.800 went to make it forty eight forty six at the 0:18:38.880 --> 0:18:40.919 end of two heading into the locker room, fifty three 0:18:41.040 --> 0:18:44.359 forty nine raptors.

Reddick gets off the screen. 0:20:07.560 --> 0:20:09.399 Twires of the Year hit it out, no good rebound 0:20:09.440 --> 0:20:11.800 Kawhi Leonard and now Toronto on the book brightled up 0:20:11.920 --> 0:20:13.959 letter driving down to day.
