Speaker 1: This is the Philadelphia seventy Sixers postgame Show. If I
Speaker 1: can look about about Broad Street stars, He's gonna turn
Speaker 1: and get it off. Mattie Rolls and the Sixers postgame
Speaker 1: show right now on ninety seven five the Fonetic just
Speaker 1: about the sports pojo of the city right now. But
Speaker 1: man Philadelphia on a roll. Seventy Sixers steamroll past the
Speaker 1: Pelicans one hundred eighty two, a game that was much
Speaker 1: more one side in the final score would suggest Sixers
Speaker 1: flat out dominant. Joel Embiid helped get things started, and
Speaker 1: the Sixers never looked back by winning their second straight
Speaker 1: game and proving a two and oh on this homestand
Speaker 1: and getting two games over the five hundred mark as
Speaker 1: they wind down their pre All Star Game stretch of
Speaker 1: the schedule. Brian Seltzer with you from Sixers dot com.
Speaker 1: We're standing by for Brett Brown's postgame press conference. Gonna
Speaker 1: hear from Tom McGinnis as well, one more time and
Speaker 1: playback some of his highlight calls. Let's start with the
Speaker 1: big man, Joel Embiid. He did not miss his first
Speaker 1: six shots. He had sixteen points and six rebounds. A
Speaker 1: very respectable night by the standards of mere mortals in
Speaker 1: the NBA. By the end of one quarter of play.
Speaker 1: By halftime, he had a twenty and ten game and
Speaker 1: after three quarters, which was indeed and understandably so. The
Speaker 1: end of his night twenty four points, sixteen rebounds, eleven
Speaker 1: of eighteen from the field, and he was totally imposing
Speaker 1: his will not only against the Pelicans, but perhaps more
Speaker 1: intriguingly and significantly against his all star starting center counterparts
Speaker 1: Anthony Davis. I mean it, really tonight was not even close,
Speaker 1: Davis finishing with fourteen points, eight rebounds, six of nineteen
Speaker 1: from the floor, and Joel was just able to do
Speaker 1: whatever he want. Had been Simmons stirring the drink all
Speaker 1: evening long ten points, nine rebounds, eight assists. He was
Speaker 1: able to get some buckets to go early, was not
Speaker 1: able to be as steady with his shot down the
Speaker 1: stretch of his playing time, but the luxury of not
Speaker 1: having to be out there in the fourth quarter on
Speaker 1: the first night of back to back very big. Dario charge.
Speaker 1: Somehow this is just one man's opinion, but it's almost
Speaker 1: like the steadiness and consistency of his play has been
Speaker 1: flying under the radar and It's like something that this
Speaker 1: point you're taking for granted or you expect game in,
Speaker 1: game out on a regular basis. Twenty four points from him,
Speaker 1: his second twenty point game in a row. He's scored
Speaker 1: in double figures thirty two straight games, and he's just
Speaker 1: finding ways too, especially on the heels of a start
Speaker 1: to the season where he was looking to find his
Speaker 1: role with more playmakers on this team. He has certainly
Speaker 1: done that, gotten into a real steady groove. Eight of
Speaker 1: eleven overall, four or five outside the arc, four to
Speaker 1: four from the line, five boards, four assists, plus thirty two.
Speaker 1: EPID was plus thirty three in the Sixers one hundred
Speaker 1: eighty two victory over the Pelicans. What were some of
Speaker 1: the key tracking points in tonight's game, fourteen to two,
Speaker 1: twenty three to two. Both of those stoppages resulted from
Speaker 1: timeouts called by the Pelicans. Sixers were up by eighteen
Speaker 1: after a quarter, their second largest first quarter lead of
Speaker 1: the season. They were in front by fifteen, but led
Speaker 1: by as many as eighteen in the second quarter. Score
Speaker 1: at halftime was fifty six forty one. You know, the
Speaker 1: Pelicans kind of showed signs of life in the third quarter.
Speaker 1: You know, there were junctures where you could say, looks
Speaker 1: like they're getting themselves back into the game. But the
Speaker 1: Sixers responded in kind by scoring eighteen points in a
Speaker 1: row bridging the end of the third and into the
Speaker 1: fourth quarter, and that gave them control the game. They
Speaker 1: were up eighty four fifty two after three quarters of playing,
Speaker 1: and the reserves got to see the Sixers through to
Speaker 1: one hundred eighty two victory. Let's join in progress Brett Brown, which,
Speaker 1: as we can we played well. We were able to
Speaker 1: get him out to your point, back to backs here
Speaker 1: at home, which is very rare. You know, we've given
Speaker 1: ourselves our best chance to be able to see him
Speaker 1: play back to back tomorrow night. I was surprised that
Speaker 1: he played tonight, you know, really that was that was
Speaker 1: declared to me. We start film at thirty five. It
Speaker 1: was declared to me at about thirty six minutes even
Speaker 1: even later. And uh, obviously we welcomed him into the
Speaker 1: team after his warm up he felt good enough to
Speaker 1: play driving that what's that? Yeah, yeah, to his credit,
Speaker 1: like he came flying through the film room, you know,
Speaker 1: grabbed the seed. He looked good to go and h
Speaker 1: you know, he always he loves playing basketball. It's one
Speaker 1: of the things that is most admirable about him. He
Speaker 1: really loves playing basketball. Even when he was injured and rehabilitating,
Speaker 1: he wanted, you know, to play pickup when we're at Peacom.
Speaker 1: He just liked playing basketball. And you know, to his credit,
Speaker 1: he loves playing at home. He loves playing in front
Speaker 1: of these fans, and we appreciate him getting through some
Speaker 1: level of pain to be able to do this place
Speaker 1: four years really dominated job he did. I mean, when
Speaker 1: you look at his stat line and really what half
Speaker 1: a game? You know, it's to your point, Keith, it's
Speaker 1: a it's a pretty impressive stat filled sort of box
Speaker 1: score sheet. I'm looking at in only twenty four minutes,
Speaker 1: and I thought our start, as you know, we came in.
Speaker 1: I think if you looked at the first period, fourteen points,
Speaker 1: the third period eleven points. So much of everything that
Speaker 1: we did was generated throughout defense, and Joel was a
Speaker 1: obviously a huge contributor. To view a press, your starters,
Speaker 1: you go to the bench, things don't go as planning.
Speaker 1: So what was the difference tonight? I know the Pelicans
Speaker 1: that scored you in the fourth, but what was the
Speaker 1: difference that you guys held on for us. I think
Speaker 1: the turnovers. We had no turnovers in the third period.
Speaker 1: And you know, when we can guard like we guard,
Speaker 1: and we do it well most nights, and we can
Speaker 1: just get a shot, as simple as that sounds, then
Speaker 1: you have a really good chance to maintain a lead.
Speaker 1: And if you do that and you don't foul and
Speaker 1: make the game static and stop start stop start, you've
Speaker 1: got to even a better chance of doing that. And
Speaker 1: so I feel like somewhere between those three things, you know,
Speaker 1: we we held on. We we held them to eleven points,
Speaker 1: and as we said, we're able to effectively put up
Speaker 1: bench on the floor of the entire fourth period because
Speaker 1: of it. Bringing Mesa he was way, I was aware
Speaker 1: of it all, and I just it's not how I'm wired,
Speaker 1: I understand it. My answer is no, there wasn't any
Speaker 1: thought I was aware of it. It's just, you know,
Speaker 1: not how I sort of see the world. I get it.
Speaker 1: But the risk reward with anything happening as stuff you
Speaker 1: just couldn't sleep at night with. It's it's irresponsible. Seventy
Speaker 1: Sixers head coach Brett Brown following the Sixers one hundred
Speaker 1: eighty two victory over the New Orleans Pelicans, and if
Speaker 1: you heard it as he detailed on a night in
Speaker 1: which Joel Embiid was not even a definitive presence for
Speaker 1: the Sixers in terms of his availability for game activity.
Speaker 1: The Sixers went into their film study about forty five
Speaker 1: minutes before the game doubtful and somewhat questionable whether or
Speaker 1: not Embiid would play. The official designation for him was questionable,
Speaker 1: but then he felt good enough to go. He expressed
Speaker 1: as much and looked like he was at his best.
Speaker 1: You know, it is pretty frightening to think. If that's
Speaker 1: what Joel Embiid can do on a slightly sore ankle
Speaker 1: when at full strength, we've seen it, but tonight just
Speaker 1: a reminder of what type of force he can be.
Speaker 1: A truly special talent for the seventy sixers. Joel Embid
Speaker 1: with twenty four points sixteen rebounds, keying a phenomenal start
Speaker 1: for the seventy Sixers. They were up eighteen thirty two
Speaker 1: to fourteen after one quarter of play by as many
Speaker 1: his thirty five points early on in the fourth quarter,
Speaker 1: and they rolled their way to an eighteen point triumph
Speaker 1: over the New Orleans Pelicans. Will break down this one
Speaker 1: a little bit more with Tom McGinnis. He's standing by
Speaker 1: it's the postgame show on the Sixers Raider Network. An
Speaker 1: overpowering performance from the Philadelphia seventy six Ers tonight one
Speaker 1: eighty two, defeating the New Orleans Pelicans finals or not
Speaker 1: nearly doing the way this game it played out enough
Speaker 1: justice Brian Seltzer with you from Sixers dot Com. Joel
Speaker 1: and bid Dario Scharch each with twenty four points and
Speaker 1: Bead had sixteen rebounds. He was plus thirty three. Scharch
Speaker 1: was plus thirty two. Ben Simmons nearly a triple double
Speaker 1: and only twenty five minutes of play, and all things considered,
Speaker 1: Tom McGinnis, I guess at the end of the night,
Speaker 1: it doesn't really matter by which way these wins come.
Speaker 1: Bottom line is the Sixers and now two games over
Speaker 1: five hundred. Once again they are trying to establish their
Speaker 1: positioning in the Eastern Conference. The Clippers defeated the Pistons.
Speaker 1: That was a good thing, But man, when you see
Speaker 1: the way games like this start, you're reminded of what
Speaker 1: this team can be when they're really clicking on both
Speaker 1: ends of the court. It was incredible. Absolutely a third
Speaker 1: quarter would fit into that too, And it does matter
Speaker 1: a little bit how you win, just because you know
Speaker 1: you can win ugly like a boy. They gotta clean
Speaker 1: up this done the other and tonight the only thing
Speaker 1: you could say was boy, the Pelicans reserves. I'll played
Speaker 1: the Sixers reserves in the last six minutes of the game.
Speaker 1: But the other part the Sixers flat out dominated, particularly
Speaker 1: that in Bad Davis matchup, where they outscored them something
Speaker 1: to the tune of thirty two to six that I
Speaker 1: shared with Joel and Bead was phenomenal. Typically, that three
Speaker 1: point shot is something he used to kind of tricked
Speaker 1: the defender at the beginning, but tonight he just came
Speaker 1: out firing. He made his first two threes. Ben was
Speaker 1: really good, and then you know, Dario was terrific. Great
Speaker 1: overall performance. I mean, you couldn't you couldn't really ask
Speaker 1: for a better home game when you play another home
Speaker 1: game tomorrow, and that is dominate, blowout the opponent, and
Speaker 1: your top players spend the entire fourth quarter on the
Speaker 1: bench and play less than half the game. And more
Speaker 1: importantly too, the Sixers, you know, they had to kind
Speaker 1: of rebuild the lead a little bit in the third,
Speaker 1: but once it got the thirty five points, I mean,
Speaker 1: obviously that was good night, Irene, and that's what you
Speaker 1: want to do. You want to take care of business.
Speaker 1: And I thought, and again just one little caveat a
Speaker 1: little high turnovers. But the Sixers dominated the game and
Speaker 1: they put it out of reach. There was no doubt
Speaker 1: they were winning this game, which has been at times
Speaker 1: in question with the way they've lost leads, but not tonight.
Speaker 1: So they appear to be there. They continue to build
Speaker 1: big leads and now they're protecting them better, particularly in
Speaker 1: these last two games seventy Sixers over the Pelicans one
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty two. And it is like Tom, it
Speaker 1: feels like that the Sixers are in this stage of
Speaker 1: their growth and development where while the talent has certainly
Speaker 1: been upgraded and increase compared to the first four years
Speaker 1: of Brett Brown's tenure, they're still playing with the same
Speaker 1: amount of scrap and hustle and spirit. And when you
Speaker 1: combine those two factors together, if you're an opposing team
Speaker 1: and you're not ready for that, look out because it
Speaker 1: comes together and it hits you like a blitz. They're
Speaker 1: the best Eastern Conference team in first quarters and the
Speaker 1: last two games especially to begin this homestand have shown
Speaker 1: them absolutely. You make a really good point. I mean,
Speaker 1: the Sixers got a lot of credit and respect over
Speaker 1: the last few years before. They play hard, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, And everybody, including like for instance, JJ Reddick,
Speaker 1: who was looking in from a far and years pass like, WHOA,
Speaker 1: what is up with Brett Brown? These guys play so
Speaker 1: hard for him, And you're right, that element is still there,
Speaker 1: even on that play where TJ. Gove ad center court
Speaker 1: didn't get the ball but got a standing ovation because
Speaker 1: that's fully tough. That's what people respect around here. And then,
Speaker 1: as you say, now that you bring in talents like
Speaker 1: Ebid and Simmons and Dario in his second season, and
Speaker 1: including Reddick, who was again in double figures and he's
Speaker 1: averaging around seventeen points per game, it's a really potent combination.
Speaker 1: And again they're coming together and beginning to play better
Speaker 1: and better. Now they've been two three games over five
Speaker 1: hundred in the past and then they've had a little dip,
Speaker 1: so you want to see that consistency and for them
Speaker 1: to finish out this last three games before the All
Speaker 1: Star Break and then going to an underman Chicago team
Speaker 1: when the thing restarts in late February. But so far,
Speaker 1: so good. They've done a really good job. And now
Speaker 1: they've got a Clippers team that's playing well. Lou Williams
Speaker 1: is scoring the ball, they add the bias Harris Austin
Speaker 1: Rivers is back in, and they had a big win
Speaker 1: the night they came from behind. It's a great opportunity,
Speaker 1: but nonetheless another important and difficult game tomorrow night against
Speaker 1: the Clippers. Before we wrap a bar dissection of tonight's
Speaker 1: game and get to some hardcore analysis about the ninety
Speaker 1: seven five the Fanatic Annual Knockout tournament taking place in
Speaker 1: front of us here at the center. Are we talking
Speaker 1: enough about Dario charch I mean, I know everyone appreciates
Speaker 1: him and recognizes his abilities, but thirty two game double
Speaker 1: figure scoring streak, and perhaps most encouragingly, really has seemed
Speaker 1: within the last month month and a half to find
Speaker 1: his groove, surrounded by an amplified cast of playmakers, which
Speaker 1: at the outside of the season he was looking to
Speaker 1: find his way. Well, how about that he started the
Speaker 1: season on the bench right right, and Prett Brown's like, no,
Speaker 1: this is this can't work. He's too good. We got
Speaker 1: to get into the lineup. And you're right, no, he
Speaker 1: when you say, are we talking about enough? I didn't
Speaker 1: think in general no. And you know, obviously during the
Speaker 1: accounts and description of the game, we are, because he's
Speaker 1: racking up big time points, as you say, But he
Speaker 1: is really solid and obviously when his three point shot
Speaker 1: is going well, then his game goes to a whole
Speaker 1: nother level. He's certainly is getting better at that. He's
Speaker 1: a little up and down at times, but tonight he's
Speaker 1: just at six ten. He's gonna be open just by
Speaker 1: the fact that he's shooting over. Even if a defender
Speaker 1: is closing out or in proximity, he's able to get
Speaker 1: that ball over the top of them because of his
Speaker 1: height and his release point. But he is I mean
Speaker 1: he you talking about a core four or whatever. He
Speaker 1: is firmly entrenched in there among charge I'm sorry, among
Speaker 1: Simmons and Bed and JJ Reddick. He's just a terrific
Speaker 1: young player. And again, look, and I thought about this
Speaker 1: last night with Peyton being traded. Okay, McDermott is now
Speaker 1: on his fourth team and those two guys were sandwiched
Speaker 1: right around Dario Sharge. Yes, the six Ers had to
Speaker 1: wait two years as he played proficially professionally in Turkey.
Speaker 1: But where's Dario scharge now? With those guys in the
Speaker 1: draft position ten eleven twelve in that draft four years ago.
Speaker 1: Clearly he's without question the best player amongst him, and boy,
Speaker 1: the Sixers are so lucky to have him. No data
Speaker 1: bat it seventy Sixers beat the Pelicans one hundred eighty two.
Speaker 1: All right, Tom, what are your thoughts insights analysis on
Speaker 1: this annual ninety seventy five to fanatic knockout? Do we
Speaker 1: see any on air personalities? They're still alive. I'm seeing
Speaker 1: a few air balls, that's for sure. Now. If Von
Speaker 1: Gibbons were here, I don't see. He's back at the studio,
Speaker 1: go whoa, whoa. Sixers President Chris Heck is out there.
Speaker 1: He's alive. Yes, So it is a very long line
Speaker 1: and everybody knows I think at this stage how lockout
Speaker 1: is played. These are free throws attempted. If you don't
Speaker 1: make it, you have to race in there and try
Speaker 1: to get a put back before the next contestant makes it.
Speaker 1: And so there's a little bit of a footwork in volum.
Speaker 1: You have to hustle in there, and there's some intense competition.
Speaker 1: Many of the on air callers are involved as right.
Speaker 1: I think the bro from the morning show is uh
Speaker 1: is still standing strong from what I can tell, So
Speaker 1: Tyrone Johnson out there. It might just be the Bro
Speaker 1: and perhaps weekend man Zach Gelb among the dignitaries and
Speaker 1: representatives from our flagship radio stage. Dignitaries loosely term, if
Speaker 1: there ever were one, Let's see what he can do,
Speaker 1: he's said. Third in line here, sleeves are rolled up.
Speaker 1: Scott O'Neill usually a part of this, typically a strong contender,
Speaker 1: Pride of Villanova, A bit short, Edie? Is it? That's
Speaker 1: what happens when you're game ends early, you get continuing
Speaker 1: knockout towards. Is that a fast game? I feel like
Speaker 1: your baseball career when I say time in the game
Speaker 1: two hours, in a minute almost seven. The Pelicans had
Speaker 1: their most recent game post because of rain right, yeah,
Speaker 1: a rainout? Are you kidding me? It's like when the
Speaker 1: fourth quarter rolled around, I think it seemed like they
Speaker 1: were two Perhaps move north drive that bust of Brooklyn
Speaker 1: Good night, Brian, thank you. Seventy Sixers power their way
Speaker 1: to a one hundred eighty two victory over the Pelicans.
Speaker 1: Will talk more about it on the other side. Our
Speaker 1: final segment coming up with some highlights, and remember Divin Gibbons.
Speaker 1: We'll hang out for the post post game show. We
Speaker 1: gotta get a name for that segment of the evening
Speaker 1: on ninety seven five to the fanatic that's coming up
Speaker 1: in just a moment here on the Sixers Rating Network.
Speaker 1: Seventy Sixers Pelican is for the second final time this season,
Speaker 1: a clash of two opposing All Stars starting centers in
Speaker 1: Joel Embiid and Anthony Davis. Sixers looking to continue a
Speaker 1: strong stretch of play, getting into the guts of this
Speaker 1: five game homestand before the arrival of the All Star break,
Speaker 1: Sixers set in the tone in a major way in
Speaker 1: the opening minutes and Simmons with a rebound, Sixers punctuating
Speaker 1: these defensive stops with rebounds, and here's Simmons blowing by everybody.
Speaker 1: Fur layoff Davis and Lincoln's look at another It's not
Speaker 1: how we did in Lexington and a dunk five. Ben
Speaker 1: Simmons a very early indication that on this night, New
Speaker 1: Orleans would have very little answers for these Sixers offensive threats.
Speaker 1: Sixers force the time out after they raced the lead
Speaker 1: out to fourteen to two, and not too long after
Speaker 1: that the Sixers margin would only inflates. Here's Simmons back
Speaker 1: up top, Dario three balls shot here, it's good. Take
Speaker 1: another time out, New Orleans. The Sixers are leading twenty
Speaker 1: three to four. They're gonna do exactly that. The Sixers
Speaker 1: are nine up ten and the crowd gives a Sixers
Speaker 1: a standing ovation. It was incredible assigned from a few
Speaker 1: turnovers here and there, the Sixers so dominant, lights out
Speaker 1: on both ends to the floor to start things off.
Speaker 1: They were up thirty two to fourteen after twelve minutes
Speaker 1: of play. Plicins would score the first six points of
Speaker 1: the second quarter. Then JJ redickott in the action. He
Speaker 1: assisted on a joel and b jam. Then he turned
Speaker 1: to his jump shot. It's Jj Reddick off the swing
Speaker 1: from the near side. Good. It beat that time real
Speaker 1: briskly and succinctly out of the trap. They go to
Speaker 1: Daria topping into the near side and it's a free
Speaker 1: ball by Reddick. His first Sixers got the lead back
Speaker 1: in hand and down the stretch of the first half,
Speaker 1: Joel and Beads still showing the despite going into tonight's
Speaker 1: game listed as questionable. He had a ton to get
Speaker 1: and now the Sixers searching. Simmons picked up his dribble prematurely,
Speaker 1: and he's gonna shoot it off the bank down with
Speaker 1: a slam by it bean it bead bottles it up
Speaker 1: and a two hands thrown down Sixers letter fifty six
Speaker 1: forty one at intermission. They would then set the tone
Speaker 1: to begin the third quarter, much like they did at
Speaker 1: the outset of the first. There were signs of brief life.
Speaker 1: The Pelicans, they got it back inside at twenty were
Speaker 1: hanging around a little bit. It was sixty eight fifty two,
Speaker 1: and then the Sixers collectively went into flat out total takeover,
Speaker 1: put the dark game away mode. Here's driver coming, here's
Speaker 1: coming to him on the lap, and oh, the Pelicans
Speaker 1: ought to be a shame. Nobody guarding Robert Covington. A
Speaker 1: layup line broke out cover with a two hands slam.
Speaker 1: Sixers lead by twenty two, just one instance of the
Speaker 1: Sixers doing whatever they wanted whenever they wanted to. Tonight
Speaker 1: JJ Reddick further blew the game wide open. Here's GJ
Speaker 1: and a dribble. Keep that a left corner Reddick three
Speaker 1: ball from there is good and the Sixers are blowing out,
Speaker 1: blowing out the New Orleans Pelicans. Three threes for Reddick,
Speaker 1: He's got thirteen McConnell with the dish twelve zero run.
Speaker 1: Sixers would go on to add six more points to
Speaker 1: that run. Bridging the end of the third and start
Speaker 1: of the fourth quarters, they had eighty four fifty two
Speaker 1: after three. It was their second largest margin of the
Speaker 1: scoreboard after three quarters this season and also of the
Speaker 1: Redground coaching era. After three quarters and the fourth only
Speaker 1: a couple of the starters would see some time and
Speaker 1: action that would do JJ Reddick and Darius Charts there
Speaker 1: Iss got run the rest of the way, and the
Speaker 1: Sixers would very much convincingly knock off the Pelicans one
Speaker 1: hundred two eighty two. Some final notes from the final
Speaker 1: stat sheet. Six Ers forty two percent from the field,
Speaker 1: the Pelicans limited to thirty four point seven percent from
Speaker 1: the field. The Sixers defense amist all the offensive highlights,
Speaker 1: so Stingy's stow airtight and just on top of New Orleans.
Speaker 1: Throughout the evening the Sixers fourteen to thirty four from
Speaker 1: outside the ark, New Orleans with eight three pointers. Sixers
Speaker 1: dominated the glass plus twelve twenty six assist for the
Speaker 1: Sixers on thirty nine made baskets. They did commit sixteen turnovers,
Speaker 1: they got that part of their game under control, particularly
Speaker 1: the third quarter in which they outscored the Pelicans twenty
Speaker 1: eight to eleven. Individual notes will start with New Orleans
Speaker 1: Anthony Davis pretty subdued tonights the Sixers and Joel and
Speaker 1: Beat keeping him in check fourteen points six of nineteen
Speaker 1: shooting eight rebounds well and Bead meanwhile leading the way
Speaker 1: for the seventy six Ers his twenty seventh double double
Speaker 1: of the season, tied for eighth most in the NBA
Speaker 1: plus thirty three with twenty four and sixteen eleven of
Speaker 1: eighteen from the floor. He hit his first six shots
Speaker 1: of the night, two of four overall, and just brilliant
Speaker 1: tonight one of the best games of his young seventy
Speaker 1: sixers career, and some of these numbers from NBA Stats.
Speaker 1: The Sixers officially outscoring the Pelicans by thirty points in
Speaker 1: the fifteen and a half minutes that Embid and Davis
Speaker 1: were on the floor together, and bad during that period
Speaker 1: had eighteen points, Davis with four and beat eleven rebounds
Speaker 1: to Davis's three. So the starting center for a team
Speaker 1: Stephen in the All Star Game and bead Handling the
Speaker 1: starter for Team Lebron Davis on this night. Hopefully many
Speaker 1: more great matchups between the two budding studs to come.
Speaker 1: Also from the seventy six ers, Dario Chartz twenty four
Speaker 1: points time for a team high, four or five from
Speaker 1: outside the arc for Dario, five rebounds, four assists for
Speaker 1: him as well Simmons in twenty five minutes ten points,
Speaker 1: nine boards, eight dimes, fifteen for JJ Reddick on six
Speaker 1: of ten, shooting three of six from three point territory.
Speaker 1: Six Er starters were great tonight. Robert Covington was steady
Speaker 1: eight points, three rebounds, two block shots, but he came
Speaker 1: up big on the defensive end wire to wire win
Speaker 1: for the seventy six Ers, their second in a row.
Speaker 1: They have not trailed at any points on this current
Speaker 1: homestand which now two games in Sixers improved to twenty
Speaker 1: seven and twenty five with the victory, while the Pelicans
Speaker 1: dropped to twenty eight and twenty six. They're now one
Speaker 1: in five since the DeMarcus Cousins injury. Tom m guinnis
Speaker 1: talked about this throughout the broadcast. Big scoring note from
Speaker 1: around the league the Pistons losing at home one of
Speaker 1: eight ninety five to the team that the Sixers will
Speaker 1: face next, Blake Griffin's old club, the Los Angeles Clippers.
Speaker 1: The Clippers pick up a win. They're vying for number
Speaker 1: eight out West. Sixers now up a game on Detroit
Speaker 1: for number eight in the East. Miami did win tonight.
