You know, I'm just I'm just 0:00:37.000 --> 0:00:39.879 proud of us for part of our guys. I'm back 0:00:39.880 --> 0:00:42.240 to back tonight. What was the sentiment in the huddle? 0:00:42.240 --> 0:00:43.600 You don't have to get me the blow by blow, 0:00:43.640 --> 0:00:45.760 But obviously Jimmy was the go to guy at the end. 0:00:45.800 --> 0:00:48.279 Coach calling its number at the end of regulation, got 0:00:48.280 --> 0:00:51.599 a good look and came right back to it in overtime. 0:00:51.600 --> 0:00:53.400 And this is in part.

Hello all, 0:04:34.360 --> 0:04:37.320 I'm Divine Givens. Welcome to the Sixers Postgame Show right 0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:39.840 here on the Sixers Radio Network. We'll travel back to 0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:42.320 Charlotte to hear from head coach Brett Brown outside of 0:04:42.360 --> 0:04:45.120 the visitors locker room and also check back in with 0:04:45.320 --> 0:04:48.400 the team's radio voice, Tom McGinnis. The Sixers traveled to 0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:50.839 Charlotte and stung the Hornets in game number three between 0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:53.680 these two teams, where the seventy Sixers have won all 0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:56.040 three matchups, two home, one on the road, picking up 0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:58.600 their third win of the season and coming away with 0:04:58.640 --> 0:05:02.359 the victory after a nominal performance by Charlotte's kimber Walker, 0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:05.599 who scored a career high sixty points and so many 0:05:05.680 --> 0:05:09.000 different varieties behind the three point line getting into the lane. 0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:12.920 Very crafty, right decision by Six's head coach Brett Brown 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:15.640 to have Jimmy Butler on kimber Walker. But when you 0:05:15.720 --> 0:05:18.120 have it going on, you have it going on. So 0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:20.640 what we have going on right now? Head coach Brett 0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:24.040 Brown outside of the visitor's locker room, what does that mean? 0:05:24.880 --> 0:05:27.720 I mean, I think the best thing for us to 0:05:27.839 --> 0:05:31.640 come out of it is when he misses the shot 0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:35.920 similar full spot at the end of regulation. I'm looking 0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:39.600 over my assistant coach and shoulders and I'm seeing the 0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:43.119 team like get him going, Like it's it's just fine. 0:05:43.200 --> 0:05:45.440 We got an overtime to play, and I think the 0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:50.880 support and the the just reaction from his teammates to 0:05:51.279 --> 0:05:54.040 get him going to lift him up. That to me 0:05:54.200 --> 0:05:56.240 is one of the highlights of the night. Obviously, him 0:05:56.320 --> 0:05:59.560 making the shot in overtime was a huge play, and 0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:02.400 I think, you know, we're going to talk about him 0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:05.480 making the shot, but really, what all the sort of 0:06:05.600 --> 0:06:08.960 replays in the explanation of the shot should show is 0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:11.920 him blocking a shot out of mid ea and then 0:06:12.080 --> 0:06:16.080 saving it, you know, over his shoulders and springing down 0:06:16.120 --> 0:06:17.640 the floor, and then we get a time out, then 0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:19.880 we set up to play where he makes the shot. 0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:24.320 That was an incredible twenty seconds of of Jimmy Butler. 0:06:24.560 --> 0:06:26.680 So what's the lesson in that defensive play? I mean, 0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:29.280 Kemba was going for crazy numbers all game long, and 0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:31.680 it seemed like Jimmy just stuck with and then made 0:06:31.760 --> 0:06:34.400 that keep paying. I mean I say it every time 0:06:34.480 --> 0:06:38.000 I come here, and Kemba makes me say it because 0:06:38.000 --> 0:06:41.880 of the performances that he has had. He's amazing, He's incredible. 0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:45.440 He really We've tried, we tried double teaming him, we 0:06:45.600 --> 0:06:49.360 tried hard hedging him, and you know the reality of 0:06:49.440 --> 0:06:52.280 it is is you got Joe Allen Jimmy in that 0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:55.400 situation a lot and He's doing that against two All 0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:59.120 League defensive players, and he just he's hard to guard. 0:06:59.360 --> 0:07:02.880 He's really unique. He's hard to guard. He can create 0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:06.680 contact and initiate that sort of physical play to generate 0:07:06.800 --> 0:07:11.160 free throws and get a shot off. You know, sixty 0:07:11.200 --> 0:07:15.000 points in an NBA game against a pretty good defensive team. 0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:19.200 That's a remarkable effort. How did you think that Ben 0:07:19.440 --> 0:07:22.560 just manage the game? From a point guard perspective? On 0:07:22.640 --> 0:07:24.720 a long I thought he was pretty good. You know, 0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:26.960 I think the first period we came out of the 0:07:27.040 --> 0:07:29.280 gates and we were running, and I think running more 0:07:29.840 --> 0:07:33.400 sort of continuity. We still, you know, have hitches and 0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:36.360 everything we're doing because of you know, Jimmy's Ben with 0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:39.960 us only for you know, handful of days. But I 0:07:40.120 --> 0:07:45.160 thought in general we did okay. We the story is 0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:48.840 Kemba and the story is Jimmy finishing at the way 0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:51.400 he did. If we dig a little deeper, you're gonna 0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:53.760 look at Joel and beating Ben Simmons have pretty good 0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:57.040 games themselves, and you're especially going to see Ben Simmons 0:07:57.080 --> 0:08:00.760 and Joel Embiid being incredibly efficient at a free throw line. 0:08:01.280 --> 0:08:04.280 That that enabled us to you know, hang around and 0:08:04.520 --> 0:08:12.040 ultimately get the win that last shott. Thinking there just 0:08:12.280 --> 0:08:15.600 it doesn't take much creativity to to find a way 0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:18.960 to win, you know, really we we we just looped 0:08:19.000 --> 0:08:22.760 him up to the top and made just try to 0:08:22.840 --> 0:08:25.720 make everybody aware of trying to get that last shot 0:08:26.600 --> 0:08:30.240 and then try to position the people around Jimmy the 0:08:30.320 --> 0:08:33.240 way that we want. But that that's what the great 0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:36.640 playoffs can do, and it's what we spoke about. Um. 0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:39.679 You know, with the inclusion of him, that he's got 0:08:39.720 --> 0:08:41.959 the ability, whether it's a pick and roll in isolation, 0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:45.920 we saw in isolation to create his own looks and 0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:48.520 that is a real gift in the NBA those players 0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:51.000 that genuinely can do that at a high rate, and 0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:53.800 he's one of them, and he's ours. And so to 0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:57.280 see that happen, to see him be able to to 0:08:57.480 --> 0:09:00.320 to make amends for that shot he was disappointed, missed 0:09:00.600 --> 0:09:03.160 and regulation and then have the opportunity to back it 0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:06.120 up and deliver as he did. I think it's a 0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:10.439 tremendous feel good story. And his teammates certainly shit and 0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:14.960 that assistance that was Sixers head coach Brett Brown outside 0:09:15.000 --> 0:09:17.560 of the visitors locker room at the Spectrum Center after 0:09:17.640 --> 0:09:20.520 the Philadelphia seventy six is defeat the Charlotte Horns one 0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:23.679 twenty two, one nineteen and speaking a lot there of 0:09:23.800 --> 0:09:27.240 Jimmy Butler, as Coach Brown just alluded to, he's ours 0:09:27.280 --> 0:09:28.959 on the other side.

But also, as Brett Brown 0:10:44.480 --> 0:10:47.959 alluded to, the wherewithal to stop Kimball Walker on a 0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:51.120 drive to the basket, not use his body to foul him, 0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:54.160 block the shot, and remain in bounds to keep the 0:10:54.240 --> 0:10:56.319 ball in play and allow the Sixers to do what 0:10:56.400 --> 0:10:58.480 they did at the end of regulation with his game 0:10:58.520 --> 0:11:01.960 winning shot. Yeah, I believe that's you summed it up 0:11:01.960 --> 0:11:04.920 pretty well there, Divon. That's excellent basketball and that's a 0:11:04.960 --> 0:11:08.400 superstar player to make that. Hey, ever since the Sixers 0:11:08.480 --> 0:11:10.520 got him, and how you describe Butler and years past, 0:11:10.600 --> 0:11:13.360 he's a two way player and it's represented by All 0:11:13.440 --> 0:11:16.240 Star status and four times in row being on the 0:11:16.320 --> 0:11:19.360 All Defensive Team and he just proved his medal in 0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:22.160 both respects and won the team a ballgame. And bead 0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:24.440 was good, Like coach said, you look down the line, 0:11:24.640 --> 0:11:27.360 Ben almost had a triple double. JJ Reddick was good. Early. 0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:30.800 The Sixers continued to build big leads and let them 0:11:31.280 --> 0:11:35.000 get away that that's a little troublesome because here's Charlotte, 0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:37.400 a team that's under five hundred, and you know you're 0:11:37.440 --> 0:11:39.640 not going to be able to do that against really 0:11:39.720 --> 0:11:42.440 good teams that are a top the division like Toronto, 0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:46.200 like I think eventually Boston. So that's something the Sixers 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:47.880 kind of have to arrest. And again, they've had a 0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:50.599 packed schedule. Brett Brown was just saying that this is 0:11:50.640 --> 0:11:52.959 their fifth back to back. It's their fifth or their 0:11:53.000 --> 0:11:55.920 first win in a back to back scenario. They played 0:11:55.960 --> 0:11:58.800 more games than anybody else, and this is after going 0:11:58.880 --> 0:12:01.320 to China and now a little more breathing room. Still 0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:04.560 tough NBA competition, but you're going to be at home 0:12:04.679 --> 0:12:06.079 for three in a row. Then you go to Brooklyn 0:12:06.160 --> 0:12:08.200 where you know they're gonna be fired up to play 0:12:08.520 --> 0:12:12.599 after getting the schlack there two weeks ago tomorrow, But 0:12:13.040 --> 0:12:15.839 all in all, a tremendous performance by Jimmy Butler, who 0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:19.120 his numbers throughout the course of the game weren't all that. 0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:22.640 He had twelve points at US up until that stage, 0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:25.319 only six in the first half. He was doing a 0:12:25.760 --> 0:12:27.960 good job. But Kemba Walker, it's sixteen points. And I'm 0:12:28.000 --> 0:12:30.920 not putting that on Jimmy Butler because Kemba Walker is 0:12:31.000 --> 0:12:33.760 amazing as everybody can attest it, hurt or watch this game. 0:12:33.800 --> 0:12:36.520 Brett Brown just alluded to it as well. But just 0:12:36.640 --> 0:12:39.040 the fact that the Sixers won and they did it 0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:42.240 with their newest player, that this huge acquisition is a 0:12:42.400 --> 0:12:44.679 huge statement in and of itself. Yeah, in time, when 0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:46.280 you look at this team, you've seen a lot of 0:12:46.320 --> 0:12:49.040 basketball covered a lot of games, and you see an 0:12:49.080 --> 0:12:51.920 acquisition like this with Jimmy Butler. Three games so far 0:12:52.000 --> 0:12:54.000 in the books with the team, two wins, one lost 0:12:54.040 --> 0:12:56.760 in twenty eight points last night his home debut fantastic, 0:12:56.800 --> 0:12:59.880 and then this tonight. You've seen it turned teams around 0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:03.760 and give them a different type of feel after acquiring 0:13:03.920 --> 0:13:06.200 a player like this. And I'm sure we can all 0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:08.200 look at this and say, Okay, this is a different 0:13:08.200 --> 0:13:10.439 type of feel now with this basketball team well, and 0:13:10.600 --> 0:13:13.480 as certainly when you're a team with chemistry and you 0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:15.560 kind of don't care who gets the credit as long 0:13:15.640 --> 0:13:18.160 as you win, which I get the feeling is for 0:13:18.280 --> 0:13:21.040 the majority of the way, how the sixers there, how 0:13:21.120 --> 0:13:24.440 they feel and whatnot. You're gonna go, hey, as a team, 0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:27.360 we got Jimmy, That's what they're gonna say. They're gonna 0:13:27.559 --> 0:13:29.719 he's already done it once. And when he missed that 0:13:29.800 --> 0:13:32.439 first shot, Honestepene's like, wow, that would have won the game. 0:13:32.480 --> 0:13:35.160 But I was thinking, like even with jj Reddick, Reddick 0:13:35.240 --> 0:13:37.720 missed a big shot against Boston last year and hit 0:13:37.760 --> 0:13:40.520 a big shot earlier this year, Like those things are cyclical, 0:13:40.600 --> 0:13:43.240 and as coaches, you can live with a good shot 0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:45.920 because you can't guarantee a guy's gonna make them. But 0:13:46.080 --> 0:13:48.000 when you get them and you're putting it in the 0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:50.800 hands in prolific scores, guys that have done at time 0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:53.520 and time again, you can live with that. And so 0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:56.400 that was my thought, even if it wasn't even in 0:13:56.520 --> 0:13:59.040 this game. But it turned out to be got another opportunity. 0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:02.160 So that's what when you say helped turn it around. 0:14:02.679 --> 0:14:05.559 You added a go to guy and then so much 0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:07.839 more than that. But he just proved the go to 0:14:08.040 --> 0:14:10.880 guy part. And we already talked about the defense. So hey, 0:14:10.960 --> 0:14:13.280 look I look at the Sixers and again you're gonna 0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:15.720 have would have, could have, should have games. But they 0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:18.000 could have. If you could have beat Memphis, you could 0:14:18.040 --> 0:14:20.040 have beat Detroit, and there was another game in there 0:14:20.120 --> 0:14:23.200 that the Sixers probably should have won. Think about that. 0:14:23.400 --> 0:14:26.920 If they were fourteen and four, right, they would be 0:14:27.000 --> 0:14:29.560 considered one of the wouldn't be a choppy start at all. 0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:32.640 And it's these types of play one play here or there, 0:14:33.000 --> 0:14:35.480 and that's what changes your record. You know, they lose 0:14:35.560 --> 0:14:38.080 tonight and it's the whole different thing. They're eleven and eight, 0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:41.720 so and that's what teams that get into this situation. 0:14:41.880 --> 0:14:45.880 More and more they execute, they learned the circumstances, what works, 0:14:45.960 --> 0:14:49.360 what doesn't, and then again, you know, it doesn't always 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:51.320 have to come down to the end. But that's what 0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:54.080 happened tonight. It was certainly another thrilling, exciting game, and 0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:56.000 they've had a number of those so far this year. 0:14:56.120 --> 0:14:58.640 Tom mc ginnison Charlotte Lie from the Spectrum Center after 0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:01.840 the Sixers one twenty two one nineteen overtime winning a 0:15:02.000 --> 0:15:04.520 thriller thanks to Jimmy Butler's game winner. One more for 0:15:04.640 --> 0:15:06.840 you time before we let you go. Ben Simmons after 0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:08.880 ten to eight and eight performance last night in a 0:15:09.200 --> 0:15:11.400 very good win again four the sixes at home, he 0:15:11.520 --> 0:15:13.800 came out tonight and you saw the aggressiveness right from 0:15:13.840 --> 0:15:16.760 the start, open opportunities, in the fast break, in the 0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:19.200 open floor, fast break opportunities, going right to the room. 0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:22.200 He finished seven to thirteen for twenty three points, eleven boards, 0:15:22.280 --> 0:15:24.440 nine assists. But the thing that really stands out nine 0:15:24.480 --> 0:15:26.880 of eleven from the free throw line and big ones 0:15:26.960 --> 0:15:29.200 towards the end of the game. Yeah, no, that's great. 0:15:29.280 --> 0:15:32.200 You started out five for five and you're right. So 0:15:32.280 --> 0:15:35.640 he's shooting sixty three percent overall, but it's trending in 0:15:35.960 --> 0:15:38.320 a better direction than that over the last five games. 0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:41.240 So hopefully he continues to do that, because I think 0:15:41.320 --> 0:15:44.360 that goes to your point about driving to the basket. 0:15:44.520 --> 0:15:47.640 When he's you know, comfortable and competent going to the 0:15:47.720 --> 0:15:51.120 foule line, then even though he might take contact and 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:54.160 get fouled, he's gonna go aggressively knowing he's gonna be 0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:56.000 able to go to the line and knock down a 0:15:56.040 --> 0:15:58.880 couple of free throws, so that's important, and no doubt 0:15:58.920 --> 0:16:03.200 about it. He he's amazing when he gets to the rim, 0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:05.040 when he gets away from the bat. He made a 0:16:05.120 --> 0:16:08.080 soaring hook shot tonight that was in rhythm. But it's 0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:10.840 tough sometimes when he the clock's winding down, he gets 0:16:10.920 --> 0:16:13.120 caught with the balls in his hand and then he 0:16:13.200 --> 0:16:16.880 has to hit a turning baseline jump hook. I mean, 0:16:17.000 --> 0:16:19.880 there's Jabbar and maybe a sprinkling of others over the 0:16:20.000 --> 0:16:21.960 years that have been able to that's a high degree 0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:24.600 of difficulty and that's something you know, you kind of 0:16:24.640 --> 0:16:27.000 paint yourself into a corner a little bit when that 0:16:27.240 --> 0:16:30.640 ends up being the dilemma. But again, he's still such 0:16:30.680 --> 0:16:34.240 a young player to your point being aggressive, and you 0:16:34.320 --> 0:16:38.080 know it's gonna be a mix getting jj getting Jimmy 0:16:38.680 --> 0:16:42.200 having been be aggressive obviously Joel, and that's going to 0:16:42.280 --> 0:16:44.240 take some time. That's the part I think where coach said, 0:16:44.240 --> 0:16:45.880 you know, that's going to take a few weeks, certainly 0:16:45.920 --> 0:16:48.760 the end of this first third of the season into 0:16:48.840 --> 0:16:51.640 January February, and hopefully everything will be clicking. There'll be 0:16:51.640 --> 0:16:54.080 a lot more symmetry as he get into that last 0:16:54.120 --> 0:16:56.320 twenty five or so games of the regular season. Well, 0:16:56.440 --> 0:16:59.480 Tom now headed back home for a game on Monday, 0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:01.720 for a night homestand for the team where one mckel 0:17:01.760 --> 0:17:03.680 bridges come to the town with the phoenix sizes. You 0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:07.160 got a rooting interest there. Yeah, that should be great. 0:17:07.240 --> 0:17:09.119 It should be for you. Thank you, Tom.

Joellis beat with alven points 0:18:53.680 --> 0:18:58.000 time out Charlotte. That made it twenty three fifteen sixers. 0:18:58.080 --> 0:19:00.240 After Joel and Beat knocks down the triple from hand 0:19:00.240 --> 0:19:02.520 the Yarkhamare Johnson also with three to make it twenty 0:19:02.560 --> 0:19:06.040 six fifteen. Following that one, JJ Reddick continuing the trend, 0:19:06.119 --> 0:19:08.280 making a thirty three to twenty one. Marquel faults in 0:19:08.320 --> 0:19:11.119 attack moved to the basket jam By Bridges. He is 0:19:11.160 --> 0:19:14.720 a power packed young player Spartan out of Michigan State 0:19:14.760 --> 0:19:16.720 two and jam Folts comes the other way though on 0:19:16.840 --> 0:19:20.400 a remerse snuck it in on Byambo. Marquel bolts into 0:19:20.440 --> 0:19:22.960 the front court and gets the field goal that made 0:19:23.000 --> 0:19:25.880 it thirty eight twenty three forty two thirty.
