WEBVTT - Rewind vs. Indiana Pacers - 11/30/19

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:03.320
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to rewind, they'll listen back on press conferences,

0:00:03.440 --> 0:00:06.880
<v Speaker 1>highlights and analysis from the seventy six ers previous game,

0:00:07.000 --> 0:00:09.800
<v Speaker 1>thirteen point nine seconds to go in regulation, the seventy

0:00:09.800 --> 0:00:13.840
<v Speaker 1>Sixers getting three pivotal steals from Ben Simmons to set

0:00:13.880 --> 0:00:17.560
<v Speaker 1>themselves up for a one nineteen one sixteen victory to

0:00:17.720 --> 0:00:20.000
<v Speaker 1>improve to nine and oh here at the center, I'm

0:00:20.040 --> 0:00:22.759
<v Speaker 1>Brian Seltzer will join a progress right now. Head coach

0:00:22.880 --> 0:00:26.400
<v Speaker 1>Brett brown a ton is that like, do you look

0:00:26.400 --> 0:00:28.360
<v Speaker 1>at a game like that and go to him and say,

0:00:28.560 --> 0:00:34.239
<v Speaker 1>this is the Ben Simmons we need every night? You

0:00:34.320 --> 0:00:38.640
<v Speaker 1>know how I have been on since we have brought

0:00:38.720 --> 0:00:42.199
<v Speaker 1>him into the program. He's finishing is still always on

0:00:42.280 --> 0:00:45.800
<v Speaker 1>my mind, you know. And what he does and we're

0:00:45.800 --> 0:00:48.480
<v Speaker 1>not talking about dunks. It's that like little three foot

0:00:48.600 --> 0:00:50.680
<v Speaker 1>thing that we're talking about, and he has to get

0:00:50.720 --> 0:00:53.800
<v Speaker 1>better at it, that gather step where he's going one

0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:56.840
<v Speaker 1>extra step or he's going one extra dribble and not

0:00:56.960 --> 0:01:00.160
<v Speaker 1>being bumped off his driving line and you know, more

0:01:00.160 --> 0:01:03.360
<v Speaker 1>fading and more straight line through people. Jannis like, I

0:01:03.400 --> 0:01:05.760
<v Speaker 1>thought he was really good doing that tonight and the

0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:09.800
<v Speaker 1>seven free throws that he shot and he made them all.

0:01:09.840 --> 0:01:13.119
<v Speaker 1>He looked confident doing that. I think there is progressive

0:01:13.160 --> 0:01:17.040
<v Speaker 1>growth in that area. To your point of going body

0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:21.600
<v Speaker 1>body ball and inviting that physical, physical sort of style

0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:24.640
<v Speaker 1>to get way more free throws for Joel to go

0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:27.959
<v Speaker 1>fifteen for fifteen from the foula and not just it's

0:01:27.959 --> 0:01:30.200
<v Speaker 1>a night. I think after he had the three night

0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:32.760
<v Speaker 1>in Toronto, he had fourteen attempts. The next night, I

0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:36.000
<v Speaker 1>think he had thirteen to night after that. Yeah, say

0:01:36.000 --> 0:01:39.440
<v Speaker 1>about that, Um, it's a mentality. You know that that

0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:42.559
<v Speaker 1>is a that is a disposition. That is a mentality

0:01:42.720 --> 0:01:45.319
<v Speaker 1>to me more than a stat And the fact that

0:01:45.360 --> 0:01:48.120
<v Speaker 1>we shot forty free throws last night with your thirty

0:01:48.120 --> 0:01:52.080
<v Speaker 1>six tonight, I like both of those things, and it's

0:01:52.320 --> 0:01:54.400
<v Speaker 1>you feel like him a lot more when you make them.

0:01:54.680 --> 0:01:58.320
<v Speaker 1>But Joe LMB to your point that that is a statement.

0:01:58.600 --> 0:02:03.120
<v Speaker 1>It is a mentality, and you know, none of us

0:02:03.160 --> 0:02:07.480
<v Speaker 1>can underestimate the hurt he fell after the Toronto game

0:02:08.160 --> 0:02:11.320
<v Speaker 1>where he felt like he let us down, and we

0:02:11.400 --> 0:02:15.040
<v Speaker 1>have seen him respond. Think of mentalities of a tobias.

0:02:15.120 --> 0:02:16.880
<v Speaker 1>We feel like he's becoming to come become more of

0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:18.799
<v Speaker 1>a score as mentality every time he touches the ball

0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:20.560
<v Speaker 1>is kind of can become more a little bit more

0:02:20.560 --> 0:02:22.800
<v Speaker 1>of a score a little bit lately. I think so,

0:02:22.880 --> 0:02:25.840
<v Speaker 1>and I hope so, because that's what we have. You know,

0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:29.120
<v Speaker 1>I have preached you all and certainly to him. I

0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:32.400
<v Speaker 1>want him to find the rim and and scora is

0:02:32.440 --> 0:02:36.600
<v Speaker 1>a score. It's not JJ reddick always it's driving. It's

0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:38.680
<v Speaker 1>like even the play we come down and I could

0:02:38.680 --> 0:02:40.200
<v Speaker 1>have called a time. Oh we had a play and

0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:42.079
<v Speaker 1>we wanted to run a turn on and get Joe

0:02:42.120 --> 0:02:44.640
<v Speaker 1>the ball, and we made a sloppy pass, you know,

0:02:45.000 --> 0:02:48.639
<v Speaker 1>Tobias into Joe got stolen, but he came straight back out.

0:02:48.720 --> 0:02:50.919
<v Speaker 1>Ben gets a steel. He's on, you know, a straight

0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:53.880
<v Speaker 1>line drive and ends up with just a smart, strong

0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:57.560
<v Speaker 1>finish and whether it's a rise up, pull up long too,

0:02:57.560 --> 0:03:00.160
<v Speaker 1>a catch shot three something off, a catch goo go

0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:03.840
<v Speaker 1>catch to the rim. As I just explained, h we

0:03:03.919 --> 0:03:05.919
<v Speaker 1>need him to score like I want him to think

0:03:05.960 --> 0:03:08.760
<v Speaker 1>like a scorer. And uh, I think that he is.

0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:16.320
<v Speaker 1>I also think that he's improved tremendously defensively. Couple, what

0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:21.640
<v Speaker 1>have you noticed how he's improved. He's very he's very prideful,

0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:25.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, Like I tell anybody to listen in the

0:03:25.600 --> 0:03:29.359
<v Speaker 1>locker room coaching staff, you don't just dust off scores.

0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:31.680
<v Speaker 1>It has to be to me some level of paint.

0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:34.600
<v Speaker 1>We're not just like it's okay, it's okay in trading

0:03:34.639 --> 0:03:37.640
<v Speaker 1>basket mentality. That's not how I see the world. And

0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:39.760
<v Speaker 1>I can see in his face like he wants to

0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:44.240
<v Speaker 1>get better. He's a prideful person. I forget sometimes really

0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:47.120
<v Speaker 1>how young he is, you know, a young twenty six

0:03:47.200 --> 0:03:50.120
<v Speaker 1>years old. Think of his upside like he we all

0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:52.480
<v Speaker 1>sort of look at him as you know, he's arrived

0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:57.040
<v Speaker 1>and here he is by any standard internationally, domestically, whatever,

0:03:57.200 --> 0:04:01.280
<v Speaker 1>basketball wise, he is just scratching the surface. And because

0:04:01.360 --> 0:04:03.880
<v Speaker 1>he's got character and he is an athlete that can

0:04:04.000 --> 0:04:08.200
<v Speaker 1>point to defense. And I think that with him, I

0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:10.560
<v Speaker 1>see that he cares. That's the hell of a starting point.

0:04:10.600 --> 0:04:12.960
<v Speaker 1>And then he's got the other characteristics that I think

0:04:12.960 --> 0:04:16.839
<v Speaker 1>can make him an elite defensive player. Seventy Sixers head

0:04:16.880 --> 0:04:20.520
<v Speaker 1>coach Bret Brown following a hard fought one nineteen one

0:04:20.720 --> 0:04:24.520
<v Speaker 1>sixteen victory over the Indiana Pacers, we joined bretton progress.

0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:27.360
<v Speaker 1>What you did not hear was him praising Ben Simmons

0:04:27.760 --> 0:04:31.880
<v Speaker 1>as an elite defender, saying that tonight's performance, with three

0:04:31.920 --> 0:04:34.799
<v Speaker 1>of simmons four steals coming in the final thirteen point

0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:38.680
<v Speaker 1>nine seconds of regulation after the Sixers trailed by a point,

0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:42.280
<v Speaker 1>he felt like that was all league level defense from

0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:44.560
<v Speaker 1>Ben Simmons, who Brett is set at times in the

0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:47.600
<v Speaker 1>past he thinks is capable of being a candidate for

0:04:47.920 --> 0:04:50.640
<v Speaker 1>Defensive Player of the Year in the NBA. There was

0:04:50.720 --> 0:04:54.400
<v Speaker 1>so much that Ben Simmons did tonight. He guarded guards,

0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:58.560
<v Speaker 1>he guarded centers, he guarded wings, and most important of all,

0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:02.120
<v Speaker 1>he came up at the absolute most important points of

0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:04.800
<v Speaker 1>the game to get this win for the seventy Sixers

0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:08.760
<v Speaker 1>and keep them undefeated at home. With thirteen seconds to go,

0:05:08.880 --> 0:05:11.640
<v Speaker 1>Simmons steals the ball from t J. Warren, feeds to

0:05:11.680 --> 0:05:14.520
<v Speaker 1>Bias Harris for a running dunk. Seventy Sixers take the

0:05:14.520 --> 0:05:18.599
<v Speaker 1>one fifteen one fourteen lead. Jeremy Lamb, then victim of

0:05:18.680 --> 0:05:22.760
<v Speaker 1>Ben Simmons, Simmons stole the sideline inbounds pass the Pacers

0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:25.080
<v Speaker 1>were forced to foul to Bias Harris ghost the line

0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:28.159
<v Speaker 1>knocks down both of his free throws. Seventy Sixers take

0:05:28.200 --> 0:05:31.480
<v Speaker 1>the lead one seventeen one fourteen with five point one

0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:35.480
<v Speaker 1>seconds to go, Malcolm Brogden goes back, knocks down two freebees.

0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:38.719
<v Speaker 1>One point game. Pacers have to foul and beat ghosts

0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:40.800
<v Speaker 1>the line. He sinks two of his own to make

0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:44.320
<v Speaker 1>it one nineteen one sixteen. With two point eight seconds left,

0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:47.560
<v Speaker 1>Indiana tried to desperately heave the ball down the floor

0:05:47.680 --> 0:05:49.719
<v Speaker 1>and who was it none other than Ben Simmons to

0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:52.520
<v Speaker 1>leap up and steal the pass to secure the seventy

0:05:52.520 --> 0:05:55.080
<v Speaker 1>six ers fourteenth win of the season and their ninth

0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:59.600
<v Speaker 1>here in South Philadelphia in nine tries. Tom McGinnis called

0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:03.480
<v Speaker 1>a really entertaining one tonight. Sixteen lead changes only sixteen

0:06:03.920 --> 0:06:07.520
<v Speaker 1>along with fourteen ties. It felt like, Tommy, you live

0:06:07.560 --> 0:06:09.400
<v Speaker 1>and breathe every one of those in a game like

0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:13.160
<v Speaker 1>this against some really good competition. Ben Simmons, For all

0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:15.800
<v Speaker 1>the talk there is about Ben Simmons, that defense that

0:06:15.839 --> 0:06:19.320
<v Speaker 1>he showed in the clutch got the Sixers to win. Yeah,

0:06:19.400 --> 0:06:21.560
<v Speaker 1>that was great, And just in general to your point

0:06:21.600 --> 0:06:24.159
<v Speaker 1>about the game, that was a great game, really exciting.

0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:28.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean, a lot of intense turnarounds and they had

0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:30.520
<v Speaker 1>the lead for a lot of the fourth quarter and

0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:34.400
<v Speaker 1>just exciting play Star play by Ebad and to your point,

0:06:34.440 --> 0:06:37.160
<v Speaker 1>Ben Simmons able to come up with those steals that

0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:40.520
<v Speaker 1>helped to seal the deally at fifteen points, thirteen assists.

0:06:40.520 --> 0:06:42.800
<v Speaker 1>Didn't shoot it well, and I think Coach Brown was

0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:46.120
<v Speaker 1>talking about finishing Ben was four or thirteen, missed some

0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:50.120
<v Speaker 1>shots right at the rim, but great contributions from Tobias

0:06:50.120 --> 0:06:51.880
<v Speaker 1>and early in the game all and of course Ennis

0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:54.800
<v Speaker 1>played most of the fourth quarter and he stepped up big,

0:06:54.839 --> 0:06:57.360
<v Speaker 1>so really excited. The numbers were incredible. Both teams shot

0:06:57.360 --> 0:06:59.040
<v Speaker 1>the ball well. I mean, you'd never know that this

0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:00.960
<v Speaker 1>was the second night of a back to back relative

0:07:00.960 --> 0:07:04.120
<v Speaker 1>to how the team shot. Eleven made threes for the Sixers,

0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.359
<v Speaker 1>and to me, anytime this year the Sixers get double

0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:10.840
<v Speaker 1>figures in threes, that that's a really workable, good number

0:07:10.920 --> 0:07:13.360
<v Speaker 1>for the Sixers, and they shot it well from deep.

0:07:13.440 --> 0:07:16.760
<v Speaker 1>Just an overall a real exciting game here tonight against

0:07:16.800 --> 0:07:20.120
<v Speaker 1>Indiana seventy sixers edge. The Pacers won nineteen to one.

0:07:20.280 --> 0:07:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Sixteen down here at the center Joel and bid. Tim

0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:26.920
<v Speaker 1>seems to be rounding into form about a month five

0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:30.600
<v Speaker 1>weeks or so into the season. Thirty two points, eleven rebounds,

0:07:30.680 --> 0:07:33.880
<v Speaker 1>and fifteen for fifteen from the free throw line. Yeah,

0:07:34.000 --> 0:07:37.840
<v Speaker 1>and obviously he's a tough cover for the opposition based

0:07:37.880 --> 0:07:42.280
<v Speaker 1>on his you know, varied ways of scoring. But one

0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:44.440
<v Speaker 1>of the big things he does is he gets the opposition.

0:07:44.840 --> 0:07:47.320
<v Speaker 1>He gets a lot of calls, but he's drawing fouls

0:07:48.040 --> 0:07:51.080
<v Speaker 1>and again your point earlier thirty two free throws coming

0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:53.200
<v Speaker 1>into the game in the last two games and tonight

0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:56.520
<v Speaker 1>fifteen and he made them all. That's telling. He got

0:07:56.520 --> 0:07:58.280
<v Speaker 1>sa bonus out of the game. He got Turner and

0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:03.080
<v Speaker 1>early foul difficulty. Miles Turner ended up with five fouls,

0:08:03.160 --> 0:08:06.520
<v Speaker 1>and you know, relative to Turner and be like Miles

0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:08.560
<v Speaker 1>Turner never got into the rhythm of the game. He

0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:11.280
<v Speaker 1>was one of their leading scorers last night. He had

0:08:11.320 --> 0:08:14.040
<v Speaker 1>just three here tonight because he was back and forth

0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:15.720
<v Speaker 1>in the lineup because every time he came in and

0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:18.520
<v Speaker 1>beat got him into a foul predicament. So no, Joel

0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:22.360
<v Speaker 1>has really done well. And again you know, handling the traps.

0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:24.160
<v Speaker 1>You didn't see as much of that tonight. But he's

0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:28.120
<v Speaker 1>getting the ball out quicker and Morris succinctly and another

0:08:28.160 --> 0:08:30.600
<v Speaker 1>great rebounding night at double double, which as I believe

0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:33.160
<v Speaker 1>now is tenth or was eleventh on the year, and

0:08:33.600 --> 0:08:37.240
<v Speaker 1>he was very impressive in this win. Seventy Sixers overcome

0:08:37.280 --> 0:08:39.679
<v Speaker 1>the Pacers one nineteen to one sixteen. They have the

0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:42.240
<v Speaker 1>day off tomorrow and then they have the Utah Jazz,

0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:44.600
<v Speaker 1>a team that beat them by two last month in

0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:47.360
<v Speaker 1>Salt Lake City here at the Center on Monday, I mean,

0:08:47.400 --> 0:08:49.680
<v Speaker 1>tom we're now rounding into the second full month the season.

0:08:49.720 --> 0:08:52.080
<v Speaker 1>What do you think things? As we usually talked very

0:08:52.160 --> 0:08:54.960
<v Speaker 1>micro after these games, but you know, you round the corner,

0:08:54.960 --> 0:08:57.480
<v Speaker 1>you got some tough games coming up. But you know,

0:08:57.520 --> 0:09:00.400
<v Speaker 1>here the Sixers are there fourteen and six on the

0:09:00.400 --> 0:09:02.600
<v Speaker 1>custom of potentially being ten and oh here at home,

0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:05.440
<v Speaker 1>what do you think we've seen so far? Well, as

0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:07.800
<v Speaker 1>you say, to your point, you're nearing a quarter pole

0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:10.880
<v Speaker 1>of the season. Brett Brown liked to cut the season

0:09:10.960 --> 0:09:13.480
<v Speaker 1>into thirds. But you know you're near the twenty twenty

0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:16.400
<v Speaker 1>one game mark and that's a fourth of the season.

0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:19.480
<v Speaker 1>And clearly at home they've had the ability to come

0:09:19.520 --> 0:09:21.920
<v Speaker 1>from behind and protect their home court, winning nine in

0:09:21.920 --> 0:09:24.720
<v Speaker 1>a row. You know, they win in Portland. You could

0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:26.640
<v Speaker 1>argue that they probably shouldn't have won that game. The

0:09:26.720 --> 0:09:28.600
<v Speaker 1>last second or two seconds to go the Shop by

0:09:28.679 --> 0:09:31.360
<v Speaker 1>Cork Mos but should have won in Denver, should have

0:09:31.400 --> 0:09:34.960
<v Speaker 1>won in Oklahoma City, and then probably should have won

0:09:35.000 --> 0:09:38.240
<v Speaker 1>in Toronto. And you take two out of those three games,

0:09:38.280 --> 0:09:40.679
<v Speaker 1>and the Sixers are sixteen and four, and you're talking

0:09:40.720 --> 0:09:42.880
<v Speaker 1>about them, you know, just like everybody talked about them

0:09:42.880 --> 0:09:47.480
<v Speaker 1>in July. So I think night's like tonight, even without Josh.

0:09:47.520 --> 0:09:50.400
<v Speaker 1>And again that's another part of this. So they've played

0:09:50.480 --> 0:09:53.920
<v Speaker 1>twenty games, and less than half of them in games

0:09:53.960 --> 0:09:56.760
<v Speaker 1>where they've had their starters, whether it's for load management

0:09:56.760 --> 0:09:59.640
<v Speaker 1>within Bead or Horford, or you know a little bit

0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:02.240
<v Speaker 1>of an here or there for Josh Richardson, who's now

0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:05.959
<v Speaker 1>missed his fourth and a half game. So that that

0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:08.680
<v Speaker 1>continuity and that deal, whether it's the starters get to

0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:11.560
<v Speaker 1>play more and more. But now you're seeing the resiliency.

0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:15.320
<v Speaker 1>And again with any good team, you're seeing multiple players

0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:18.200
<v Speaker 1>step up at any given time. In a game like tonight,

0:10:18.320 --> 0:10:21.680
<v Speaker 1>Horford fifteen points, three threes in the first half, six

0:10:21.720 --> 0:10:24.320
<v Speaker 1>field goals didn't seem like a big factor in the game,

0:10:24.320 --> 0:10:27.559
<v Speaker 1>but look at that fifteen points and Beat and Simmons,

0:10:27.600 --> 0:10:30.319
<v Speaker 1>you know, being all stars stepping up and carrying the

0:10:30.360 --> 0:10:34.840
<v Speaker 1>little Tobias Harris being relentless rebounding the ball pretty well

0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:38.160
<v Speaker 1>overall over seven plus rebounds per game, and for that

0:10:38.200 --> 0:10:41.080
<v Speaker 1>position and that size he should be. So you're getting

0:10:41.120 --> 0:10:44.080
<v Speaker 1>that production off the bench with Ennis. You've seen some

0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:46.520
<v Speaker 1>great moments from five ball ups and downs from Mike

0:10:46.600 --> 0:10:49.319
<v Speaker 1>Scott so far, Trey Burke and Netto have done a

0:10:49.400 --> 0:10:52.680
<v Speaker 1>nice job. So you know, really to be eight games

0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:55.240
<v Speaker 1>over five hundred at this stage in the season, that's

0:10:55.320 --> 0:10:58.560
<v Speaker 1>tracking for fifty plus wins again, and for that to

0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:01.080
<v Speaker 1>be the case in the third acutive season, whether the

0:11:01.080 --> 0:11:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Sixers end up with the number one seed or not,

0:11:03.520 --> 0:11:05.520
<v Speaker 1>will We'll see. But the biggest thing is you want

0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:08.640
<v Speaker 1>to get through the you know, the season with home

0:11:08.640 --> 0:11:11.800
<v Speaker 1>court advantage in the first round and just continue to

0:11:11.880 --> 0:11:15.560
<v Speaker 1>track and stay healthy Knockwood and begin to figure some

0:11:15.640 --> 0:11:18.040
<v Speaker 1>things out. The defense has been dominant. I know this

0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:21.280
<v Speaker 1>is kind of free ring thinking, but these are all

0:11:21.320 --> 0:11:24.720
<v Speaker 1>the things that come to mind, and so far, so good.

0:11:24.800 --> 0:11:26.880
<v Speaker 1>Certainly some hiccups along the way, but there are going

0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:29.760
<v Speaker 1>to be ups and downs. And now you come in

0:11:29.760 --> 0:11:32.960
<v Speaker 1>and this Utah Utah has always been a tough opponent.

0:11:33.440 --> 0:11:35.680
<v Speaker 1>Mitchell I thought Mitchell got into the paint a lot

0:11:36.120 --> 0:11:40.880
<v Speaker 1>Ricky Rubio, not Rubio, but the way that Utah attack

0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:43.120
<v Speaker 1>to paint against the Sixers that hurt them out in

0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:45.920
<v Speaker 1>Salt Lake City. And then Sixers are gonna have to

0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:49.080
<v Speaker 1>do something with that defensively because that it was almost

0:11:49.080 --> 0:11:50.959
<v Speaker 1>like they went paint to great and that was part

0:11:50.960 --> 0:11:54.280
<v Speaker 1>of the formula when they did beat the Sixers earlier

0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:57.840
<v Speaker 1>this season out in Salt Lake seventy Sixers beat the

0:11:57.840 --> 0:12:01.600
<v Speaker 1>Pacers one nineteen one sixteen. Always great thoughts and perspective

0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:05.840
<v Speaker 1>postgame from Tom McGinnis. Tom will talk on Monday, thank you,

0:12:05.880 --> 0:12:10.000
<v Speaker 1>good night. Seventy Sixers get thirty two and eleven from

0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:13.320
<v Speaker 1>Jowell Embiad Who's fifteen for fifteen performance in the free

0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:16.160
<v Speaker 1>throw line tonight at the center big in the seventy

0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:21.160
<v Speaker 1>sixers victory over Indie Ben Simmons fifteen points, thirteen assists,

0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:24.480
<v Speaker 1>six rebounds, four steals, three of them coming in the

0:12:24.480 --> 0:12:28.600
<v Speaker 1>final thirteen point nine seconds of regulation after the Sixers

0:12:28.600 --> 0:12:32.640
<v Speaker 1>fell behind by point and desperately needed a stop. Twenty

0:12:32.679 --> 0:12:36.160
<v Speaker 1>two for Tobias Harris, fifteen for Al Horford and a

0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:39.200
<v Speaker 1>dozen for fur Concorkmas James and it's the third with

0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:42.200
<v Speaker 1>nine off the bench, as the seventy Sixers improved to

0:12:42.280 --> 0:12:44.760
<v Speaker 1>nine and oz down here at the center. Here's how

0:12:44.760 --> 0:12:47.400
<v Speaker 1>it sounded, courtesy of the one and only Tom McGinnis

0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:51.319
<v Speaker 1>on the Sixers radio network. Al Horford back after getting

0:12:51.360 --> 0:12:53.360
<v Speaker 1>some rest last night in New York City and he

0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:56.280
<v Speaker 1>helped give the seventy Sixers an early boost. Here comes

0:12:56.280 --> 0:12:58.280
<v Speaker 1>sevens in the night. Back out the big Al three

0:12:58.320 --> 0:13:02.840
<v Speaker 1>ball by Horford is good. Horford knocks it down and

0:13:02.960 --> 0:13:07.640
<v Speaker 1>the Sixers with eight in a row and time out Indiana.

0:13:07.800 --> 0:13:11.040
<v Speaker 1>The Sixers they're back in fill anywhere. They're unbeating one

0:13:11.120 --> 0:13:14.040
<v Speaker 1>the year. Indeed they were. They stretched the run to

0:13:14.120 --> 0:13:17.520
<v Speaker 1>ten straight points and take control early. Seventy Sixers would

0:13:17.559 --> 0:13:20.480
<v Speaker 1>enjoy their highest scoring first quarter of the season, leading

0:13:20.520 --> 0:13:23.520
<v Speaker 1>thirty eight to twenty nine after one. In the second

0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:26.320
<v Speaker 1>quarter of the Sixers widen the gap, expanding their lead

0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:29.920
<v Speaker 1>to a dozen. Ben driving on Rodden on the backdown

0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:32.319
<v Speaker 1>ten to shoot, still backing with the right hand, dribble turns,

0:13:32.400 --> 0:13:35.960
<v Speaker 1>jump tads fires it in. Ben Simmons fall away jumper

0:13:36.040 --> 0:13:40.480
<v Speaker 1>eight three foot five and the Sixers fifty Indiana thirty eight. Well,

0:13:40.520 --> 0:13:43.320
<v Speaker 1>the Sixers would stretch their lead to fifteen points with

0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:46.000
<v Speaker 1>five minutes to go in the first half fifty five forty,

0:13:46.160 --> 0:13:49.200
<v Speaker 1>but from there Indiana turned the game around, capitalizing on

0:13:49.320 --> 0:13:52.680
<v Speaker 1>seventy Sixers mistakes and turnovers, the Pacers ending the first

0:13:52.679 --> 0:13:54.880
<v Speaker 1>half on a twenty five to ten run. It was

0:13:54.920 --> 0:13:58.079
<v Speaker 1>all tied up at sixty five going into the break,

0:13:58.080 --> 0:14:00.320
<v Speaker 1>and the third quarter of the battle is on seventy

0:14:00.360 --> 0:14:03.440
<v Speaker 1>Sixers turning the big man and Simmons has it down low,

0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:06.920
<v Speaker 1>spins kickout Joel. He drives out Si bonas side steps

0:14:06.920 --> 0:14:10.400
<v Speaker 1>one man, scoops it off the glass right five miles turner.

0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:15.079
<v Speaker 1>Porous defense by Indiana. It beat with five in the

0:14:15.200 --> 0:14:19.120
<v Speaker 1>third seventeen in the game, and the seventy Sixers led

0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:22.320
<v Speaker 1>a seventy two sixty eight fur con cork mose, helping

0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:25.120
<v Speaker 1>give the Sixers a little bit of a nudge going

0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:28.400
<v Speaker 1>into the fourth quarter. Well leftenant Ben Simmons from Melbourne,

0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:31.480
<v Speaker 1>Australia at six ten gets a screen by a beat,

0:14:31.560 --> 0:14:33.760
<v Speaker 1>drives a kickout cork boss three ball from out top.

0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:37.560
<v Speaker 1>It's up and good furkon cork boss from sevens and

0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:41.400
<v Speaker 1>the Sixers take today murk with twelve sevens with US

0:14:41.480 --> 0:14:46.120
<v Speaker 1>twelfth and says ninety three ninety two. Philadelphia, Indiana would

0:14:46.200 --> 0:14:48.280
<v Speaker 1>tied up to make it ninety three all going into

0:14:48.280 --> 0:14:51.040
<v Speaker 1>the fourth quarter. Things really started to heat up from there.

0:14:51.080 --> 0:14:54.479
<v Speaker 1>There were opportunities from both teams it felt like to

0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:56.760
<v Speaker 1>take control of the game, but it remained a neck

0:14:56.800 --> 0:14:59.400
<v Speaker 1>and neck fight to the finish line. The Pacers going

0:14:59.480 --> 0:15:01.440
<v Speaker 1>up three one nine, one oh six with five and

0:15:01.440 --> 0:15:03.120
<v Speaker 1>a half minutes to go on a three pointer from

0:15:03.120 --> 0:15:06.800
<v Speaker 1>Malcolm Bragen. The seventy Sixers hadn't answered back to Harris

0:15:06.840 --> 0:15:09.840
<v Speaker 1>high screen it. Bead screens for Harris. Harris comes off

0:15:09.880 --> 0:15:13.040
<v Speaker 1>shooting three ball up in to Bias. Harris with his

0:15:13.160 --> 0:15:15.840
<v Speaker 1>first tray in the game. Two man game on the

0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:18.960
<v Speaker 1>perimeter in Bead with a pick Harris with the pop

0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:23.280
<v Speaker 1>Sixers and Pacers tied at one o nine. Seventy Sixers

0:15:23.280 --> 0:15:25.280
<v Speaker 1>would fall behind again, but then tied up on two

0:15:25.320 --> 0:15:27.120
<v Speaker 1>free throws from Bead with two and a half minutes

0:15:27.160 --> 0:15:30.320
<v Speaker 1>to go, one eleven all. The Pacers reclaimed the lead

0:15:30.360 --> 0:15:33.960
<v Speaker 1>at one at thirteen one eleven to seventy Sixers with

0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:36.960
<v Speaker 1>under half a minute to play. Turned to Ben Simmons,

0:15:37.000 --> 0:15:39.520
<v Speaker 1>who ratchet it up the deed Simmons steals them all.

0:15:39.640 --> 0:15:42.480
<v Speaker 1>Simmons driving it in the lady goes to Harris. Harris

0:15:42.480 --> 0:15:45.200
<v Speaker 1>puts up Ben Jams and quit. Ten seconds to go,

0:15:45.840 --> 0:15:49.400
<v Speaker 1>Sixers take the lead. Malcolm Brocken threw it right to

0:15:49.560 --> 0:15:53.080
<v Speaker 1>Ben Simmons. Simmons drove it down and kicked it off

0:15:53.080 --> 0:15:57.520
<v Speaker 1>to a trailing Harris, and he slams a ball then

0:15:57.520 --> 0:16:00.800
<v Speaker 1>made it one fifteen, one fourteen. After Indie, they scored

0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:04.760
<v Speaker 1>three free throws. After TJ. Warren was fouled on the perimeter,

0:16:05.160 --> 0:16:08.120
<v Speaker 1>the seventy Sixers got it right back. Ben Simmons then

0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:11.320
<v Speaker 1>stole the ball and the Pacers, ensuing sideline inbounds play.

0:16:11.600 --> 0:16:13.840
<v Speaker 1>Sixers got a couple more free throws from Harris and

0:16:13.920 --> 0:16:16.960
<v Speaker 1>Joel Embiid that kept them in front, and Simmons end

0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:20.920
<v Speaker 1>of the night as time expired by intercepting a desperation

0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:23.440
<v Speaker 1>pass at mid court to clinch the game for the

0:16:23.440 --> 0:16:26.840
<v Speaker 1>seventy sixers. Sixers shot forty nine and a half percent

0:16:26.920 --> 0:16:29.360
<v Speaker 1>from the field, the Pacers fifty five and a half percent,

0:16:29.680 --> 0:16:32.320
<v Speaker 1>eleven three pointers from each team. The Sixers huge from

0:16:32.360 --> 0:16:34.400
<v Speaker 1>the free throw line, where they were thirty two of

0:16:34.480 --> 0:16:37.000
<v Speaker 1>thirty six. Indiana just twenty one of twenty five, while

0:16:37.040 --> 0:16:38.880
<v Speaker 1>I say just twenty one of twenty five. But the

0:16:38.880 --> 0:16:42.320
<v Speaker 1>Sixers given their volume that much stronger in that department.

0:16:42.320 --> 0:16:45.600
<v Speaker 1>Sixers plus one on the glass. Sixers turned Indie over

0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:49.960
<v Speaker 1>twenty times and outscored the Pacers by seven off turnovers,

0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:52.440
<v Speaker 1>so that was a key stat as well. Sixers with

0:16:52.520 --> 0:16:55.520
<v Speaker 1>forty six points in the paint that helped their cause too.

0:16:56.040 --> 0:16:59.240
<v Speaker 1>Thirty two points eleven rebounds for Joel embiid game high

0:16:59.280 --> 0:17:03.120
<v Speaker 1>totals in both categories, twenty two for Tobias Harris, Ben

0:17:03.160 --> 0:17:07.320
<v Speaker 1>Simmons with fifteen points, thirteen assists, six rebounds and four steals.

0:17:07.880 --> 0:17:10.240
<v Speaker 1>Fifteen for Al Horford to go with three rebounds and

0:17:10.280 --> 0:17:12.879
<v Speaker 1>three assists. James and It's the third with nine points

0:17:12.880 --> 0:17:15.600
<v Speaker 1>off the bench plus four rebounds and a couple steals

0:17:15.600 --> 0:17:18.399
<v Speaker 1>of his own. Seventy six Ers have won three in

0:17:18.440 --> 0:17:22.200
<v Speaker 1>a row. They are fourteen and six, and they've also

0:17:22.200 --> 0:17:24.640
<v Speaker 1>won seven out of the last eight games. They remain

0:17:24.720 --> 0:17:27.000
<v Speaker 1>undefeated here at the Center with the record of nine

0:17:27.040 --> 0:17:29.200
<v Speaker 1>and oh. They are one of three unbeaten home teams

0:17:29.280 --> 0:17:31.920
<v Speaker 1>left in the NBA. They have the Utah Jazz coming

0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:35.200
<v Speaker 1>up at seven o'clock on Monday Night one final time.

0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:38.920
<v Speaker 1>The final score was the seventy Sixers one nineteen Indianna

0:17:38.920 --> 0:17:42.520
<v Speaker 1>Pacers one sixteen. You've been listening to rewind, look out

0:17:42.560 --> 0:17:45.360
<v Speaker 1>for fresh episodes the day after every seventy Sixers game

0:17:45.480 --> 0:17:46.000
<v Speaker 1>this season
