WEBVTT - The BroadCast: 3/28/18- Rewind vs. Knicks 0:00:01.160 --> 0:00:04.640 This is the Philadelphia has seventy Sixers postgame show. I 0:00:05.640 --> 0:00:08.119 can walk about about broad free s hards, just gonna 0:00:08.119 --> 0:00:11.840 turn and get it off Matty Rolls The Sixers postgame 0:00:11.880 --> 0:00:16.919 Show right now on Natty seventy five the Panetti. Welcome 0:00:16.960 --> 0:00:19.640 to the Sixers Postgame Show as the Philadelphia seventy six 0:00:19.680 --> 0:00:22.800 Ers have won their eight straight improving to Wow forty 0:00:22.800 --> 0:00:24.720 four and thirty on a season one eighteen one on 0:00:24.720 --> 0:00:27.080 one victory over the New York Nicks. Hello, I'm Divine 0:00:27.080 --> 0:00:29.319 Givens right now, though we do head back to the 0:00:29.320 --> 0:00:33.560 center and coach Brett Brown seventeen point third period confirms 0:00:33.600 --> 0:00:36.960 that and we needed to have that mindset because they 0:00:37.000 --> 0:00:41.360 really individually have capable scorers. Why did it anything? Do 0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:44.840 you know additional about Joel Decide the diagnosis? Really nothing. 0:00:45.680 --> 0:00:49.879 I haven't learned anything more than you know. I was 0:00:49.920 --> 0:00:53.519 told it was a facial contusion and that's all I 0:00:53.600 --> 0:01:00.360 know right now. I have no idea. We got to 0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:04.160 talk about Dario, especially that hustle play when he went 0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:11.720 on the flooring fantastic, like truly inspirational stuff, and that 0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:14.520 that that's what we want to be. For the most part, 0:01:14.560 --> 0:01:18.640 I think that's who we are, and that that was 0:01:18.760 --> 0:01:26.280 a courageous play, you know, a motivating play, and he 0:01:26.280 --> 0:01:29.440 he I thought tonight, you know, was our MVP. He 0:01:29.560 --> 0:01:34.520 was the bell ringer tonight and that that play is 0:01:34.600 --> 0:01:36.720 as good as it gets. If you just wanted a 0:01:36.800 --> 0:01:40.560 snapshot of how you want your team to be perceived, 0:01:41.480 --> 0:01:46.040 it speaks volumes on many levels. When six or six, 0:01:46.120 --> 0:01:48.440 when the free throw alive tonight, there's a lot of 0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:51.080 times when it seems like he doesn't really get the calls. 0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:53.440 Do you think that maybe he's earning a little bit 0:01:53.520 --> 0:02:01.640 more respectablywide he should be, um, I think in relation 0:02:01.680 --> 0:02:05.040 to does that translate into more free throws or more calls? 0:02:05.800 --> 0:02:08.720 I don't know, But like what I do know is 0:02:08.760 --> 0:02:12.840 he is such a significant part of this team, and 0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:19.639 from a spirit standpoint as much as a positional slash 0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:26.120 statistic standpoint, his spirit is pure. He loves basketball, he's 0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:30.920 a great teammate, and he's just trending up. He's really 0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:34.680 getting better. And so I would think as the season 0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:38.080 winds down and people just pay attention and it really 0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:44.919 doesn't require much more than that, then his reputation from 0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:49.120 the people that matter is for shore growing six is 0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:52.320 head coach Brett Brown live outside of the winning locker 0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:55.520 room as the Philadelphia seventy Sixers and head coach Brett Brown. 0:02:55.840 --> 0:02:58.560 The team improves to forty four and thirty now on 0:02:58.639 --> 0:03:02.200 the season, one eight one on one victory over the 0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:04.920 New York Knicks. The New York Knicks certainly give the 0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:09.080 seventy Sixers some issues, but again, being in Atlantic Division foe, 0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:12.320 they know each other very well. That said, this Philadelphia 0:03:12.320 --> 0:03:15.040 seventy Sixers team is a different team than they have 0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:17.160 been at the very early part of the season. Yes, 0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:19.840 they played on March fifteenth, New York led most of 0:03:19.880 --> 0:03:21.400 the game, but the Sixers did come out on top 0:03:21.480 --> 0:03:24.440 one eighteen one ten, coming away again with another victory 0:03:24.520 --> 0:03:28.519 over the Atlantic Division foe. One more time, one on 0:03:28.880 --> 0:03:31.200 one again, Divine gives with you here on the Sixers 0:03:31.240 --> 0:03:34.160 post game show on the Sixers Radio Network. We will 0:03:34.800 --> 0:03:36.640 at some point head back down to the center and 0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:39.880 check in with the Sixers radio voice Tom McGinnis. Will 0:03:39.960 --> 0:03:43.200 also hear some of his highlights later on during the program, 0:03:43.440 --> 0:03:45.280 but right now again just checking out some of the 0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:48.320 things that happened overall. And you heard the questioning being 0:03:48.360 --> 0:03:53.200 asked in the media gathering during the postgame press conference 0:03:53.200 --> 0:03:56.520 for Brett Brown, where Dario Charch led this team. He 0:03:56.600 --> 0:03:59.120 was the game high score with twenty six points on 0:03:59.280 --> 0:04:03.240 nine of night shooting in thirty six minutes, adding fourteen 0:04:03.320 --> 0:04:07.960 rebounds and five assists. That is that is something that 0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:11.480 as we look at what Dario Scharge has done over 0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:15.120 the last couple of games overall and just really since 0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:16.920 let's just be honest and take it all the way 0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:21.800 back to after Game four against after Marquel Foons was 0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:24.839 unfortunately down for the sixty eight games that he was 0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:28.200 and Dario Scharge was inserted into the lineup, into the 0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:31.920 starting lineup. Dario Scharz has been fantastic, going from a 0:04:31.960 --> 0:04:35.719 six man role jumping right back into the starters role, 0:04:36.080 --> 0:04:39.040 figuring out now not only playing with him beat again, 0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:41.720 but having to figure out how to fit in with 0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:44.919 JJ Reddick and Ben Simmons, who he had not played 0:04:45.000 --> 0:04:47.400 with the season ago. Robert Covington. That seemed like an 0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:49.919 easier transition due to the fact that they played together 0:04:50.040 --> 0:04:52.880 season ago for most of the year, but Reddick and 0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:55.840 Simmons having to figure out where does Dario Scharz fit 0:04:56.279 --> 0:04:58.039 in It took him a little while to get his 0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:01.360 feet underneath them, but he's certain has done just that, 0:05:01.600 --> 0:05:03.960 and the numbers that he's been putting up and tonight 0:05:04.440 --> 0:05:07.600 leading the team, especially when your star goes down and 0:05:07.680 --> 0:05:11.479 Joel and Bad drops twenty six points fourteen boards on 0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:15.160 nine nineteen shooting just a fantastic night. And the one 0:05:15.200 --> 0:05:18.279 thing that we know he's improved upon is his outside shooting, 0:05:18.520 --> 0:05:21.480 going two or five from behind the three point line. 0:05:21.520 --> 0:05:24.200 So we will head back to the center right now 0:05:24.279 --> 0:05:26.720 and check in with the Sixers radio voice, and that 0:05:26.760 --> 0:05:29.080 will be Tom again. It's Tom. I just wanted to 0:05:29.440 --> 0:05:32.120 share my thoughts briefly on Dario charts and what he's 0:05:32.160 --> 0:05:35.159 been able to do over the basically the duration of 0:05:35.200 --> 0:05:38.480 the season, and certainly tonight when Joel and Bad went down. 0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:41.760 Dario got off early, but he certainly kept it going 0:05:41.800 --> 0:05:44.120 throughout the night when the Sixers needed it. Oh yeah, 0:05:44.160 --> 0:05:46.800 and he plays so hard and you're right, two for 0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:49.120 five or forty percent, that's right in line with how 0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:51.400 he shot that three ball all year. Brett Brown was 0:05:51.480 --> 0:05:54.839 saying pregame that you know today's NBA, you got to 0:05:55.120 --> 0:05:57.080 your four guy, your foe man has got to be 0:05:57.120 --> 0:06:00.600 able to shoot that ball. He really provides base both 0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:03.840 for Ebad and then with the driving of Simmons, and 0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:07.279 it's just relentless. And today had showed the Sixers needed 0:06:07.279 --> 0:06:10.760 a performance like that without Joel, and Dario stepped up 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:12.440 big time and was really good. And they had a 0:06:12.440 --> 0:06:15.880 lot of all around solid performance as another great night 0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:20.640 for Simmons statistically and in complete all up and down 0:06:20.680 --> 0:06:23.640 the court. Marco played well, JJ stayed with it and 0:06:23.640 --> 0:06:26.320 shot the ball well. I thought, Covington played well. Rashawn 0:06:26.400 --> 0:06:29.560 stepped up and played big minutes because a mirror was 0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:32.000 inactive tonight, and then Joel goes out so he needed 0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:34.760 Holmes for a while there. Brett Brown was playing earson 0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:37.800 at the five. But a nice victory for the Sixers. 0:06:37.800 --> 0:06:40.479 It just shows you how good they're playing as a team, 0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:43.840 how connected they are, and how well they did, particularly 0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:46.400 in the third holding New York to a stretch in 0:06:46.440 --> 0:06:48.760 which they went at one point like one of thirteen 0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:51.760 and with nine straight misses from the field. I thought 0:06:51.839 --> 0:06:54.200 that's where they took control of the game. Yeah, and 0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:56.440 again they keep doing it in the right times third 0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:59.560 quarter and into the fourth to twenty six to seventeen 0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:02.560 advantage in the third low numbers. Then we're used to 0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:04.200 seeing over these last couple of way they put a 0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:07.360 high thirties, little forties, but again just an advantage overall 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:09.880 to make sure they separate themselves. And you mentioned Michewan 0:07:09.960 --> 0:07:12.680 Holmes has not been getting a lot of minutes due 0:07:12.720 --> 0:07:15.200 to the fact that Emir Johnson has been playing well. 0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:17.119 To be perfectly honest with you, and we know Brett 0:07:17.120 --> 0:07:20.560 Brown likes to go a certain way with whom he 0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:23.800 puts in against the opposition. But it goes as you 0:07:23.920 --> 0:07:26.000 bring up, it goes to the point of this team 0:07:26.320 --> 0:07:28.960 whenever someone is caught upon their numbers is caught upon, 0:07:29.480 --> 0:07:31.960 they're always ready. And he responds six of eleven from 0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:34.680 the floor of seven rebounds and fifteen points. And that's 0:07:34.680 --> 0:07:37.800 just how Rashawn plays. I mean, he's like a rocket 0:07:37.880 --> 0:07:41.760 sent out of a launcher, you know, especially when opportunities sometimes, 0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:43.600 I don't want to say few and far between, but 0:07:44.040 --> 0:07:46.320 Coach Brown has been spelling. You know, one game of 0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:49.160 Mirror plays, one game or Shawn plays, and it's in it. 0:07:49.400 --> 0:07:51.800 You can't really play. There's only so many minutes at 0:07:51.840 --> 0:07:54.560 that spot, and a beat is gonna get thirty or 0:07:54.680 --> 0:07:57.880 more of them and so when Rashawn gets in there, 0:07:58.000 --> 0:08:00.920 it's like it's a carryover the whole chip on a 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:04.480 shoulder type of way that he performs. And so he 0:08:04.520 --> 0:08:06.960 did a really good job. I mean, Rashawn to me, 0:08:07.040 --> 0:08:09.240 has to figure out a little bit of a different 0:08:09.280 --> 0:08:11.680 way to score. He gets a lot of dunks, and 0:08:11.800 --> 0:08:14.240 you know, he had a couple of in between maneuvers 0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:17.320 around Canter where he did a good job getting around him. 0:08:17.360 --> 0:08:20.520 But just that finishing what it's not that ferocious slam 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:22.560 dunk that we've been accustomed to. How about that that's 0:08:22.560 --> 0:08:24.800 a pretty good problem to have. Most guys would be 0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:27.080 able to love the dunk it with the way that 0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:29.680 he plays, with that aggressive nature. But now he's a 0:08:29.800 --> 0:08:33.040 key contributor. And again, a guy like that in a 0:08:33.120 --> 0:08:36.240 given playoff game and a series with a couple three 0:08:36.800 --> 0:08:40.480 stellar performances like that can help to swing the thing 0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:43.040 in your favor. And that's why Brett Brown has been 0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:45.439 trying to keep as he calls these young players alive 0:08:45.520 --> 0:08:48.320 and what he means is in the flow, getting minutes, 0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:52.000 getting into a rhythm, and Rashawn certainly has fit into 0:08:52.040 --> 0:08:54.920 that category and stepped up big tonight and helped the 0:08:54.960 --> 0:08:58.920 Sixers in this win video voice Tom mcguinnings joining us 0:08:58.960 --> 0:09:01.600 again live from this enter on the Sixers postgame show 0:09:01.960 --> 0:09:04.160 here on the Sixers Radio Network. I was looking into 0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:06.960 a few things because I noticed this trend early, and 0:09:06.960 --> 0:09:09.360 then I had to make sure I wasn't wrong looking 0:09:09.400 --> 0:09:12.280 at the deeper inside the box score of obviously points 0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:14.720 into paint sixty to thirty eight sixes advantage. And you 0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:18.760 mentioned twelve turnovers during your postgame segment, and I look 0:09:18.800 --> 0:09:20.840 at the fast break points time and we know that 0:09:20.880 --> 0:09:23.160 the pacing space is what Brett Brown likes to be 0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:25.520 able to get out and run. And having now that 0:09:25.600 --> 0:09:28.520 added dimension, if markul Folks will find his way into 0:09:28.520 --> 0:09:32.679 the rotation from here on, now, that's a nice advantage 0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:36.800 to have a thirteen point spread in the fast break opportunities. 0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:39.240 That just shows again just getting it, getting the ball, 0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:42.240 getting out and you have the necessary speed and ball 0:09:42.280 --> 0:09:44.319 handlers to make sure they get down and give themselves 0:09:44.320 --> 0:09:47.360 an opportunity. Well, and that's I think the calling card 0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:50.480 to first and foremost for Simmons, and that what we've 0:09:50.840 --> 0:09:54.120 become accustomed to is him getting it off the rim 0:09:54.240 --> 0:09:57.600 and driving that ball. But even with the outlet, and 0:09:57.679 --> 0:10:00.280 I thought early on he really threw some you know, 0:10:00.320 --> 0:10:03.640 half court three, quarters court passes to Covington, just snapping 0:10:03.640 --> 0:10:06.280 it off and putting the Sixers in a position where 0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:08.959 they had the odd band advantage. And that's what typically 0:10:09.040 --> 0:10:12.560 gets your fast breakpoints, where you exploit that two on one, 0:10:12.720 --> 0:10:15.960 three on two, and then the other thing. Simmons he 0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:18.920 gets the ball so deep. Sometimes he doesn't look to score, 0:10:19.320 --> 0:10:22.160 but he takes it below the foul and extended that 0:10:22.320 --> 0:10:25.720 collapses the opposition defense and then he kicks it back out. 0:10:25.840 --> 0:10:29.680 So yeah, sometimes fast breakpoints it's not there. There aren't 0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:32.520 a lot of classic breakouts like we've we've seen over 0:10:32.679 --> 0:10:35.720 years past because the game guys run the line a 0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:38.760 lot anymore. But no doubt about it big and that's 0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:41.160 Brett Browns. That's one of his big keys. That is 0:10:41.200 --> 0:10:44.600 to get easy baskets. The more you can score before 0:10:44.600 --> 0:10:47.360 the opposition sets up and you get into that five 0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:49.680 court five on or excuse me, half court five on 0:10:49.840 --> 0:10:53.400 five clock winding down. That that's not to the Sixers benefit. 0:10:53.840 --> 0:10:55.640 They need if they can to try to get as 0:10:55.640 --> 0:10:59.320 many defense or many baskets they can on breakouts. And 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:03.040 it's again head by their defense. Those are I think 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:05.520 those are two big things and two elements of why 0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:08.520 they've been on this tourd streak here down the stretch. Yeah, 0:11:08.520 --> 0:11:11.680 absolutely right, Tom again again, we're just getting used to 0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:15.040 this eighth straight now for this basketball team. Eight more 0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:18.000 to go on the regular season and then of course 0:11:18.040 --> 0:11:20.560 the postseason.

The same for 0:11:59.080 --> 0:12:01.839 the Washington Wiz there's not an action who they do 0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:04.280 in fact have a two game lead on in the 0:12:04.280 --> 0:12:07.400 Eastern Conference standing, so quick break, we come right back. 0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:10.680 Then we get into the highlights during this win again 0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:14.839 one eighteen one on one Sixers over the Knicks. I'm 0:12:14.880 --> 0:12:17.040 divine Givens. This is the postgame show here on the 0:12:17.040 --> 0:12:20.559 Sixers Radio network. Sixers victorious one eighteen one on one 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:23.400 over the New York Knicks tonight at the Center, improving 0:12:23.400 --> 0:12:26.520 their record to forty four and thirty Knicks dropped to 0:12:26.679 --> 0:12:29.640 twenty seven and forty nine. And with that, of course, 0:12:29.720 --> 0:12:32.480 in a game caught by Tom again us, there are highlights. 0:12:32.679 --> 0:12:35.360 So let's get things started in the first quarter as 0:12:35.400 --> 0:12:38.240 things where a little start off really good for the 0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:42.199 Philadelphia seventy six is going up big on the New 0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:44.800 York Knicks early on, and then all of a sudden, 0:12:44.840 --> 0:12:47.760 as we started to get really into things, we see 0:12:47.880 --> 0:12:51.040 Marco Belinelli the early substitution. As we know, right around 0:12:51.120 --> 0:12:55.480 that seven seven to six minute mark for JJ Reddick. 0:12:55.520 --> 0:12:58.160 He gets into the mix very quickly. Off the back 0:12:58.240 --> 0:13:03.199 von were about sevens in the mark. Gola left hand layup. 0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:07.040 Ben Simmons was working his way off the baseline, got 0:13:07.080 --> 0:13:10.520 the long rebound underhand shovel to Marco right doubla for two. 0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:14.920 Great cut by Marco Belinelli, recognizing what Ben Simmons was doing. 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:16.760 And of course you played with him long enough. You 0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:18.400 know all you have to do is move and your 0:13:18.400 --> 0:13:22.000 point guard will reward you. Twenty two to fourteen sixers 0:13:22.080 --> 0:13:25.400 at that time again, Noahmir Johnson out with an illness. 0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:29.840 In Rashaun Holmes, he made his presence felt early. He 0:13:29.880 --> 0:13:34.520 gets a rough card and hammers at home. Rashaun Holmes 0:13:34.600 --> 0:13:38.560 two half stuff with a thirty are dunking donuts, dunk 0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:42.240 the game six is up thirty five twenty six at 0:13:42.280 --> 0:13:44.640 that point at the end of the first thirty seven 0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:46.760 twenty eight advantage to look like it was going to 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:49.240 be a route early. The Knicks did, in fact battle 0:13:49.320 --> 0:13:51.760 back things that got a little closer in fact, and 0:13:51.880 --> 0:13:55.439 Manuel Moody, acquired during the trade deadline by the New 0:13:55.520 --> 0:13:58.040 York Knicks, comes off the bench and adds a nice 0:13:58.040 --> 0:14:02.480 little spark for the visitors. Long ball. Emmanuel Boodier with 0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:05.120 a three point field goal. Reddick out there but not 0:14:05.240 --> 0:14:08.560 close enough. And now Emanuel Bootier with eight. He's three 0:14:08.679 --> 0:14:11.800 for four. They've made four threes that made it fifty 0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:14.880 six fifty four Sixers. Nick's getting a little bit too 0:14:14.880 --> 0:14:18.520 close for comfort, but no worries. Things got a little 0:14:19.160 --> 0:14:23.400 spaced out going towards the halftime period as JJ Reddick 0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:26.320 drops in one of his normal triples, Simmons smiss both 0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:28.840 free throws, Urson popped it away and the Sixers get 0:14:28.880 --> 0:14:30.920 it again. I'll top the Reddicks wind up with pre 0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:35.480 ball bangs good j J Reddick for three. He's got 0:14:35.520 --> 0:14:39.200 fourteen points to the Sixers lead by six. Great room, 0:14:39.360 --> 0:14:42.560 great momentum shift right there as the turnover was caused, 0:14:42.760 --> 0:14:46.360 and then JJ Reddick depositing the three four the Philadelphia 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:49.440 seventy six to sixty seven sixty one. At that point, 0:14:49.480 --> 0:14:53.280 the team led at the half sixty seven to sixty three. 0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:55.720 In the third quarter, as Tom again has pointed out 0:14:55.920 --> 0:14:59.080 and Brett Brown as well during his postgame press conference, 0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:02.520 that's where things it's really again. The defense picked up. 0:15:02.800 --> 0:15:07.000 They were able to make stops and only allowing seventeen 0:15:07.080 --> 0:15:09.760 points to the New York Knicks. And what really got 0:15:09.840 --> 0:15:12.840 things started for the seventy six is Robert Covington another 0:15:12.880 --> 0:15:16.440 solid night, a basket and foul Sucress ball probably did 0:15:16.560 --> 0:15:18.720 going left the right get on hardaway banks in the wall, 0:15:18.800 --> 0:15:23.400 bounce good. Robert Cobbington finages from sixty in the lane 0:15:23.480 --> 0:15:26.800 at a hardaway. Junior called for the block. A lot 0:15:26.840 --> 0:15:29.960 of Robert Covington in the lane, had everything on the outside. 0:15:29.960 --> 0:15:31.600 He did put the ball on the floor quite a 0:15:31.640 --> 0:15:34.640 few times. Tonight got to the room and was able 0:15:34.680 --> 0:15:37.600 to get a basket in that particular one seventy three 0:15:37.760 --> 0:15:41.280 sixty nine after the May free throw. Ben Simmons solid night, 0:15:41.400 --> 0:15:45.480 thirteen points, ten assists, eight rebounds, six of seven from 0:15:45.480 --> 0:15:48.600 the floor. Very efficient. Here's Ben Simmons, Your's bed with 0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:52.400 a leading shot, good shimmer, just five for five. He's 0:15:52.440 --> 0:15:55.840 got eleven points, eight assists of five rebounds, picking his 0:15:55.960 --> 0:15:59.080 spots as usual. Six is up eighty three seventy two 0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:01.280 at that point. At the end of three, up thirteen 0:16:01.440 --> 0:16:04.560 ninety three to eighty in favor of the home team. 0:16:04.840 --> 0:16:07.280 In the fourth quarter, they really started to spread things 0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:10.320 around once again, the defense doing what the defense does, 0:16:10.440 --> 0:16:13.480 picking it up. Dario Shards the player of the game 0:16:13.560 --> 0:16:16.280 for the Philadelphia seventy six ers. He drops in a 0:16:16.480 --> 0:16:19.800 three ear tug is the call. Here's Dario for three 0:16:19.880 --> 0:16:23.760 and it's good. Charge sticks a triple that's the play 0:16:23.760 --> 0:16:26.680 called Brett Brown. Rett Brown reaches for the right ear 0:16:27.120 --> 0:16:30.800 tugs like your lobe and three by Dario. I like 0:16:30.960 --> 0:16:33.680 that play, call ear tug. Dario nails at three. They're 0:16:33.760 --> 0:16:37.160 up ninety eight eighty seven, and again things that start 0:16:37.240 --> 0:16:39.440 to really get away from the New York Knicks. As 0:16:39.440 --> 0:16:42.840 the Philadelphia seventy six is convert. You had another triple 0:16:42.920 --> 0:16:46.240 by the shop shooter JJ Reddy. Here's JJ for three 0:16:46.360 --> 0:16:49.120 shot the ear got it. Reddick keeps on firing. He's 0:16:49.160 --> 0:16:53.880 got three threes, sevens of another, dishes, tenth assists, thirty 0:16:53.880 --> 0:16:57.440 three double doubles now for sevens, one oh six eighty nine. 0:16:57.480 --> 0:16:59.960 They do not let up at all. As the Philadelphia 0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:04.040 seventy sixer's final score one eighteen, one oh one over 0:17:04.440 --> 0:17:07.480 the visiting New York Knicks, it a little dive deeper 0:17:07.520 --> 0:17:10.840 into the box score yet again, Dario charts, as we 0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:14.720 pointed out, the game high twenty six points, adding fourteen rebounds, 0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:17.240 nine of nineteen from the floor in thirty six minutes. 0:17:17.480 --> 0:17:20.480 That was on the absence of Joel emb your all 0:17:20.520 --> 0:17:22.920 Star center, who only played eight minutes and thirty two 0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:27.600 seconds as he and markl. Folks collided in the first quarter. 0:17:27.720 --> 0:17:30.359 Things got a little scary at first, and as Tom 0:17:30.400 --> 0:17:33.000 mc ginnis pointed out, it seemed as if he has 0:17:33.080 --> 0:17:36.320 Facebook contusion. The team let everyone know a facial contusion. 0:17:36.359 --> 0:17:40.000 They did to concussion protocol. Doesn't seem like there's anything 0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:42.479 to worry about there, so we'll monitor that. As they 0:17:42.520 --> 0:17:46.280 again are back on the floor in Atlanta on Friday, 0:17:46.320 --> 0:17:49.440 looking for their ninth straight victory. Robert Covington, we pointed 0:17:49.440 --> 0:17:52.240 out seven to sixteen from the floor thirty three minutes 0:17:52.240 --> 0:17:56.720 and twenty three seconds, seventeen points for your Sixers swing 0:17:56.760 --> 0:18:00.040 man JJ Reddick. The fourteen that he had very early on, 0:18:00.400 --> 0:18:03.720 he kept it going eight of seventeen high volume shots tonight, 0:18:03.760 --> 0:18:05.840 eight of seventeen from the floor, three of ten from 0:18:05.840 --> 0:18:09.440 behind the arc, twenty one points, but he didn't stop there. 0:18:09.800 --> 0:18:14.040 Six rebounds, five assists for the veteran shooting guard. Nice 0:18:14.119 --> 0:18:16.840 night from JJ Reddick. We pointed out thirteen, ten and 0:18:16.920 --> 0:18:19.280 eight for Ben Simmons, an efficient six of seven from 0:18:19.280 --> 0:18:23.080 the floor, controlling the pace again. Four turnovers the only blemish, 0:18:23.119 --> 0:18:25.840 but at times we know we'll get that, but it 0:18:25.880 --> 0:18:28.120 doesn't matter when they do, in fact come away with 0:18:28.160 --> 0:18:31.439 the victory and get a low number overall in turnovers 0:18:31.480 --> 0:18:34.800 with twelve off the bench. Two guys came off the 0:18:34.800 --> 0:18:38.119 bench to give them double figure scoring. That would be 0:18:38.440 --> 0:18:41.800 the usual suspect and Marco Belinelli four of seven from 0:18:41.840 --> 0:18:43.960 the floor, two or three from behind the arc, got 0:18:43.960 --> 0:18:46.240 to the free throw line four times, converting all four 0:18:46.280 --> 0:18:49.760 of those for his fourteen points. And the energizer for 0:18:49.960 --> 0:18:53.000 the sixers tonight twenty one minutes and fifty six seconds, 0:18:53.080 --> 0:18:56.040 six of eleven from the floor, three of six from 0:18:56.040 --> 0:18:58.240 the free throw line got there a few times as well, 0:18:58.560 --> 0:19:03.440 seven rebounds that would be Rashaun Holmes fifteen points overall 0:19:03.960 --> 0:19:07.800 for the young backup center, very energetic, came in and 0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:10.640 gave the energy that was needed. With the absence of 0:19:10.680 --> 0:19:15.080 both Joel Ebid and of course the pregame announcement that 0:19:15.240 --> 0:19:17.640 Emir Johnson was going to be out due to an illness, 0:19:18.000 --> 0:19:21.240 Rashaun Holmes was ready to go when he was called upon, 0:19:21.480 --> 0:19:23.800 and he stepped in and gave this Philadelphia seventy sixers 0:19:23.840 --> 0:19:26.359 and really good minutes tonight in this victory over the 0:19:26.440 --> 0:19:29.959 Knicks for New York. The leading scores for them Michael 0:19:29.960 --> 0:19:33.120 Beasley and Emmanuel Moodier, both with the team high twenty two. 0:19:33.440 --> 0:19:36.320 Trey Burke continues his solid play seven to fifteen from 0:19:36.320 --> 0:19:40.160 the floor, eighteen points in his canterer seventeen and fourteen. 0:19:40.480 --> 0:19:42.520 He just finds a way to get these double doubles, 0:19:42.520 --> 0:19:45.800 and it keeps happening, but not enough, as the Philadelphia 0:19:45.880 --> 0:19:48.640 seventy six has come away again with the win one 0:19:48.840 --> 0:19:52.760 eighteen one oh one. Solid field goals shooting forty five 0:19:52.840 --> 0:19:55.919 point nine percent tough for both teams. From behind the 0:19:56.040 --> 0:19:58.240 arc nine of thirty one for both teams, both for 0:19:58.320 --> 0:20:02.280 twenty nine percent, pretty equal. Getting to the free throw 0:20:02.359 --> 0:20:06.679 line twenty seven times to twenty six sixers with that advantage. 0:20:06.720 --> 0:20:09.480 Rebounding wise, they keep pounding the glass fifty eight to 0:20:09.600 --> 0:20:13.560 forty four sixers with that advantage, and again the assist 0:20:13.960 --> 0:20:17.560 thirty four assists, forty five made baskets. They just keep 0:20:17.640 --> 0:20:22.119 doing it, sharing the basketball, nothing selfish. Everyone gets to 0:20:22.200 --> 0:20:24.639 touch and while all that leads to is a better 0:20:24.680 --> 0:20:28.600 shot for the home team once again, Sixers victorious one 0:20:28.720 --> 0:20:32.840 eighteen one oh one over the visiting New York Knicks. 0:20:33.000 --> 0:20:35.080 A lot of people to thank, of course, here at 0:20:35.080 --> 0:20:38.439 the Studio ty Luzuli for keeping us live in Local. 0:20:38.840 --> 0:20:41.840 Also Alan Yates for the great audio highlights back at 0:20:41.880 --> 0:20:46.680 the Center, Marty Dickerson and Tom McGinnis, thanks again for listening. 0:20:47.160 --> 0:20:49.679 Sixers Win one, eighteen one on one.
