Speaker 2: on ninety seven to five The Fanatic.
Speaker 1: Back in Philadelphia with the Parks Casino post game show
Speaker 1: after a Sixers loss to the Nets one oh five
Speaker 1: to one oh three. They're seventeen point comeback not completed well.
Speaker 1: They went ahead late and with the game tied at
Speaker 1: one oh three. If you were with us, put back
Speaker 1: for Nick Claxton that beat the buzzer on an offensive
Speaker 1: rebound using the glass just in front of us in
Speaker 1: the nearer left corner, kind of went from right block
Speaker 1: to left block. Put it home and the Nets win
Speaker 1: one oh five one oh three. The Sixers have lost
Speaker 1: seven straight, including their first two out of the All
Speaker 1: Star Break. Matt Murphy with you. I'll be joined by
Speaker 1: Tom McGinnis. We'll hear from Nick Nurse. The Sixers coach
Speaker 1: Cam Johnson led the Nets with twenty three points. Tyrese
Speaker 1: Maxey led all scorers in this one with thirty one.
Speaker 1: He had some clutch threes late, made five in the
Speaker 1: game and the Nets they set up a pick and
Speaker 1: roll play and then it was passed out from Watford
Speaker 1: to Keon Johnson, who missed a three, but there was
Speaker 1: just enough time. Tenths of a second remaining when Claxton
Speaker 1: released it. He had a game high nine rebounds, none
Speaker 1: bigger than that one, three on the offensive glass, sixteen points,
Speaker 1: nine rebounds, five blocked shots for Claxton. They had six
Speaker 1: players in double figures. The Sixers had all five starters
Speaker 1: in double figures, led by Maxi. They shot only forty
Speaker 1: two percent to the nets fifty one. Neither team shot
Speaker 1: the three ball well. Nets put up forty in the
Speaker 1: first quarter, led sixty three fifty two at halftime. But
Speaker 1: the closing sequences of this game, we're back and forth,
Speaker 1: and we'll have all that in a little bit with
Speaker 1: the audio highlights of the game from start to finish.
Speaker 1: We've got Tom McGuinness right now. That was a big
Speaker 1: one for that old season series too, Tom. These teams
Speaker 1: came in and with the ten team expanded field where
Speaker 1: the play in tournament is a thing, these two teams
Speaker 1: are right there with Chicago whose tenth And now the
Speaker 1: Sixers don't have that tie breaker against Brooklyn. They will
Speaker 1: play Chicago here on Monday. But I know you were
Speaker 1: you were on for a while after the final buzzer,
Speaker 1: But what did you make to me? I was surprised
Speaker 1: they didn't take a time out, but it worked out
Speaker 1: for the Nets to set it up. I assumed time
Speaker 1: out with about twenty seconds after the max three.
Speaker 3: Yeah, normally that is what you see. But to their credit,
Speaker 3: right they made that. I think because of that, you know,
Speaker 3: I think the rationale is you don't let the opposing
Speaker 3: team set their defense right. And it ended up being
Speaker 3: like a scramble for the rebound and Claxton got there
Speaker 3: and put it in. That was a difficult shot. It's
Speaker 3: not like he was at point blank range. I would
Speaker 3: say that was a six seventy eight footer going away
Speaker 3: from the basket. Quickness, as you say latterally across the lane.
Speaker 1: He got lost a bit because he did. Yabule was in.
Speaker 1: Embiid did not play down the stretch of the game,
Speaker 1: and it was Yabu at the five, and it was
Speaker 1: like a cross situation where Paul George ended up on
Speaker 1: the left block with Claxton getting around it right.
Speaker 3: And then by the way that takes that coach nurse,
Speaker 3: he deserves credit, you know, I mean, that takes guts
Speaker 3: to not put Embiid back in the game. But Yabu
Speaker 3: Sele's quickness, that's what allowed the Sixers to come back
Speaker 3: and to make it a game, right and I mean
Speaker 3: that if you go back, forget the last play. But
Speaker 3: the Sixers gave up sixty points in the paint and
Speaker 3: they were porous, you know, like where Brooklyn was getting
Speaker 3: easy baskets, particularly early in the game. Neither team shot
Speaker 3: the ball well from three, and so that ended up
Speaker 3: being a big thing. And then the other area would
Speaker 3: be bench points, as Watford had sixteen points and he
Speaker 3: was you know, he did a lot of their driving
Speaker 3: dribble penetration, and he scored a good bit again seven
Speaker 3: of thirteen, but he set them up. I thought Sharp
Speaker 3: really played well off the bench.
Speaker 1: Fifteen for twenty first quarter for them and only three
Speaker 1: of those attempts. They were two for three from three
Speaker 1: forty to thirty in the first and it turned into
Speaker 1: kind of a Maxi Watford duel down the stretch at times.
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's just the sec connection. They
Speaker 1: are friends. Maxie shouted him out after the win in
Speaker 1: Boston on Christmas, saying that the Watford texted him that
Speaker 1: he needed a better game on the national stage.
Speaker 3: But this time I think you just kind of nailed
Speaker 3: it without talking at length about it, but you know
Speaker 3: when you go back. So the game ended at a
Speaker 3: last second put back, and it was I thought the
Speaker 3: crowd was stunned, right because they were voicing their displeasure
Speaker 3: at times during the game, and understandably so. At one
Speaker 3: point the Sixers fell behind by seventeen. But when you
Speaker 3: consider when you go back in the last analysis and
Speaker 3: look like Brooklyn who's been struggling quite a bit on
Speaker 3: offense of late. But they had a forty point first quarter.
Speaker 3: So the Sixers really dug themselves a whole down ten.
Speaker 3: We're gonna hear from Sixers coach Nick Nurse. I believe
Speaker 3: he's in the postgame press conference area. Here is the
Speaker 3: Sixers head.
Speaker 4: Coach, so well together and had a good, good feel
Speaker 4: for the game at that point, just this wanted to
Speaker 4: let him roll with it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's maybe going to Andre in the first half
Speaker 5: and then going to Yabu in the second half.
Speaker 2: What what kind I guess what.
Speaker 5: Kind of close the switch up there?
Speaker 4: Yeah, we wanted to try to play Yabu at the four, right,
Speaker 4: so that that's that was that Drum went in there
Speaker 4: and uh played okay except for the fouls. You know,
Speaker 4: he committed three fouls and what did he play about
Speaker 4: five or six minutes? Yeah, And I didn't mind the
Speaker 4: matchup with Yabu on Watford. Actually, I think he was
Speaker 4: doing the best job of keeping him out of the paint.
Speaker 4: But then in the second half, I just again, it
Speaker 4: became more of a speed thing, I think on the
Speaker 4: on the outside, which is why we went with Yabu
Speaker 4: in the second half.
Speaker 1: Are you more encouraged by the rally or more disappointed
Speaker 1: in how the defense started.
Speaker 4: That Dade equally equally? I think certainly didn't start defensively
Speaker 4: at all and then played, you know, pretty good defense,
Speaker 4: played really great defense second half, fourth quarter, really really great.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I guess, like, what was your your your your advantage
Speaker 5: point on the Claxton uh, the tip in?
Speaker 2: I guess what did you kind of see what you
Speaker 2: like when you aint?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was just I was just I didn't really
Speaker 4: like I saw him tip it in. I was just
Speaker 4: seeing if he was over the back or not. I didn't,
Speaker 4: but I haven't watched it again. I just was checking
Speaker 4: to see if I could challenge that since they were
Speaker 4: going to look at the monitor and there wasn't a call,
Speaker 4: so you can't challenge it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what about that that the fourth quarters? To believe
Speaker 1: that they were able to sort of turn.
Speaker 4: Up the defense the way that they did. Well, you
Speaker 4: you saw him. They were up up, really garden hard.
Speaker 4: They were pressuring, they were they were really making drives
Speaker 4: a lot harder. And if somebody did drive, somebody was
Speaker 4: there quickly to help. They were back out. They knocked
Speaker 4: the ball away. I'm not sure how many turnovers we
Speaker 4: created in the fourth, but it felt like a good number.
Speaker 4: Got our hands on a lot of balls. But they
Speaker 4: were just just much more active and physical, guarded the
Speaker 4: ball much better.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Nick, you said, and Joel has said as well.
Speaker 5: Normally when he is feeling good. You see him at
Speaker 5: the basket of hot tonight. He took six threes. I
Speaker 5: think he missed all of them. I guess, like, what
Speaker 5: what do you see as the biggest impediment for him
Speaker 5: right now? I know that the knee is the knee,
Speaker 5: but why why can't he establish himself the way he
Speaker 5: probably Well?
Speaker 4: Yeah, again, I mean you said it like I said,
Speaker 4: you know, he's feeling pretty decent when he's when he's
Speaker 4: driving the ball some right and playing inside a little
Speaker 4: bit and protecting the rim a little bit, and you know,
Speaker 4: he's not feeling pretty very decent if he's you know,
Speaker 4: playing on the perimeter and whatever the opposite of those things.
Speaker 1: So I you know, again, he.
Speaker 4: He's giving us what he can, right, I don't, you know,
Speaker 4: obviously doesn't feel like he's not himself. We all know
Speaker 4: that he's not certainly the guy that we're used to
Speaker 4: seeing play at a super high level. But he I
Speaker 4: recommend him forgiving us what he can. Thanks, good, all right,
Speaker 4: Thanks everybody.
Speaker 1: Seventy six Ers head coach Nick Nurse on the Parks
Speaker 1: Casino postgame show after a one oh five to one
Speaker 1: oh three home loss to the Brooklyn Nets. Sixers are
Speaker 1: twenty and thirty six. The Nets are twenty one and
Speaker 1: thirty five, so they'll leap frog the Sixers for eleventh.
Speaker 1: Came in with tide record wise there with Tom mcguinnis.
Speaker 1: I'm Matt Murphy and Tom. Before we get to Chicago
Speaker 1: on Monday, you mentioned, I mean, we just heard coach
Speaker 1: talk about emb not playing down the stretch. You mentioned
Speaker 1: Yabu Sele's quickness being important to the comeback. I thought
Speaker 1: Quinton Grimes and Kelly Oubray Junior's intensity. Athleticism also important,
Speaker 1: and you were commending Grimes on the defensive end last game.
Speaker 1: More of that tonight. What did you see from from
Speaker 1: those two wings.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought Ubra really struggled at the beginning, right,
Speaker 3: but he ended up with fourteen points, and you know,
Speaker 3: he had some big baseline cuts and I thought he
Speaker 3: did a really good job in that area, because again,
Speaker 3: the focus changes when you have him be George and
Speaker 3: Maxi im and Kelly Oubray at times has been the
Speaker 3: second scorer for the Sixers. In that game in Brooklyn,
Speaker 3: both he and Grimes had thirty and it's you know,
Speaker 3: like when when the big well those three players play
Speaker 3: roles shift. The same thing with Yabusele, and I thought
Speaker 3: Grimes was good and Paul, George and Maxi made a
Speaker 3: lot of shots down the stretch too, So you know,
Speaker 3: again like there's it's that old deal when you when
Speaker 3: you lose on a last second shot. It's not just
Speaker 3: that Blad is the one that sealed the deal. It
Speaker 3: was the difference in the end, in the very end.
Speaker 3: But there were a lot of different things. And again
Speaker 3: I thought the points in the paint and no resistance,
Speaker 3: they just scored left and right on drive. They played
Speaker 3: harder and faster throughout much of the game. They led
Speaker 3: for eighty five ninety of the game right Brooklyn, and
Speaker 3: then they got to one more rebound. Let's look the
Speaker 3: rebounds Sixers ended up with. They out rebounded them forty three.
Speaker 1: To thirty fifteen offensively for the Sixers is a huge number.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So but they that's got the one that counted. They're
Speaker 1: a physical, fast team that I said this pregame. They're
Speaker 1: the best defensive rating team in the month of February.
Speaker 1: So Jordi Fernandez just has them playing hard and and
Speaker 1: despite the Sixers comeback efforts, they scrape out another w
Speaker 1: They've won seven of nine.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think with the way the Sixers came back and
Speaker 3: how exciting it was with the big shots by Maxi,
Speaker 3: I think the crowd felt like the Sixers. It seemed
Speaker 3: like the Sixers were gonna win. And then that play
Speaker 3: took the air out of the balloon. And then the
Speaker 3: other part was that Claxton locked the Sixers. You know,
Speaker 3: he had a huge.
Speaker 1: Plot five five total and yeah, in the end there.
Speaker 3: So he made two good plays that two winning plays
Speaker 3: that I think provided the difference in the very end, and.
Speaker 1: Then just touching on Chicago because they have occupied that
Speaker 1: last play in spot for a while. They lost earlier
Speaker 1: to Phoenix. Yes, and they've lost six in a row.
Speaker 1: So it's two teams trying to snap long losing streaks
Speaker 1: in the Sixers and the Bulls. That the Suns big
Speaker 1: three did really well against the Bulls. But this is
Speaker 1: going to be potentially on Monday, a game like the
Speaker 1: last one, where the Celtics are a three point shooting team,
Speaker 1: the Bulls play that way. They took fifty three threes
Speaker 1: today and Lonzo Ball going one for seven was part
Speaker 1: of the reason they lost. They don't have Zach Lavine anymore,
Speaker 1: but they're under Billy Donovan. They're trying to take around
Speaker 1: fifty three is a game, So it might look less
Speaker 1: like tonight and more like the game on Thursday against
Speaker 1: the Celtics. You hope that it doesn't look like the
Speaker 1: end result from Thursday. But about the Bulls coming in.
Speaker 3: Right, Brooklyn only took twenty eight threes. Traditionally, over the
Speaker 3: last few years they have been right. Brooklyn has been
Speaker 3: like the one of the most analytically driven teams. But
Speaker 3: that's how that game was that the Sixers played out
Speaker 3: in Chicago in December, right where both teams really flew
Speaker 3: it up from it was you know, MAXI, I mean.
Speaker 1: That was a comeback for the Sixeries. I've got a
Speaker 1: stat here, how about this. The Sixers are we are
Speaker 1: one in thirty one when trailing at the start of
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, and that Chicago game on the twenty
Speaker 1: fifth of January was the only time they've trailed going
Speaker 1: into the fourth and won the game. And they nearly
Speaker 1: did it tonight.
Speaker 3: Right, So at some point the Sixers got to obviously
Speaker 3: snap this streaky and again couple things. One, you know,
Speaker 3: they played better in the Boston game. They just ran
Speaker 3: into the world champion Celtics who were on fire, right
Speaker 3: Pritchard Tatum triple double tonight, definitely not the greatest to
Speaker 3: begin with, and yet really good at the fourth quarter.
Speaker 3: And they got to get closer to playing a full
Speaker 3: forty eight, which is you go back to different parts
Speaker 3: of this season, and that was the case where they
Speaker 3: you know, again some of these games they don't come
Speaker 3: down to the final play, but you know, you put
Speaker 3: yourself at a buying so at some point they got
Speaker 3: to come closer to playing a full forty eight to
Speaker 3: be able to get back in the win column.
Speaker 1: Monday night against the Bulls. Tom Acgainnis, thank you good night,
Speaker 1: Brooklyn one oh five the Sixers one to oh three
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia. The fourth quarter ended up being twenty seven
Speaker 1: to twenty two Sixers, so they outscored the Nets in
Speaker 1: the second half fifty one forty two, but trailed by
Speaker 1: as many as seventeen late in the first half. Maxi
Speaker 1: thirty one, Grimes sixteen, Paul George fifteen, Ubra and Embiid
Speaker 1: fourteen each. The Sixers starting five all in double figures
Speaker 1: twenty three points for Cam Johnson, sixteen each for Nick
Speaker 1: Claxton and Trendon Watford. Claxton had the tip in the
Speaker 1: Nets had the answers at times in the back and
Speaker 1: forth down the stretch. We still have the game highlights
Speaker 1: and we'll look at the box score from a team
Speaker 1: perspective after the break. The shoot the final shooting numbers
Speaker 1: after the Nets got off to such a hot start,
Speaker 1: but it's the Nets one oh five, the Sixers one
Speaker 1: oh three will do that. After a break, you're listening
Speaker 1: to the Parks Casino post game show. Postgame at the Center.
Speaker 1: After tonight's NBA action on a Saturday night between the
Speaker 1: visiting Brooklyn Nets and home Philadelphia seventy six Ers, Matt
Speaker 1: Murphy back with You with the Parks Casino postgame show.
Speaker 1: It was the Nets one oh five, the Sixers one
Speaker 1: to oh three. Sixers, trailed by as many as seventeen,
Speaker 1: came all the way back to take the lead, but
Speaker 1: Nick Claxton had an offensive rebound tipped in put back
Speaker 1: for the win that just beat the buzzer. He had
Speaker 1: sixteen points and nine rebounds. The Nets were led in
Speaker 1: scoring by Cam Johnson's twenty three points. His lone three
Speaker 1: pointer came at a good time in the fourth to
Speaker 1: retie the game. Tyrese Maxey led all scores with thirty
Speaker 1: one made five threes, the most for any player took eleven.
Speaker 1: Six Ers were ten for thirty nine from deep, and
Speaker 1: Beid was ozer for six. George was one for six
Speaker 1: from there. Oubre was oh for three. Grimes was the
Speaker 1: second best three point shooter at three for six, so
Speaker 1: they were twenty six percent from three. The Nets were
Speaker 1: only twenty five percent from three. Johnson was one for
Speaker 1: nine forty two percent overall for Philadelphia. Fifty one percent
Speaker 1: for Brooklyn after they were seven twenty five percent shooting
Speaker 1: in the first quarter that they won forty thirty and
Speaker 1: then free throws twelve of fourteen Brooklyn in the first
Speaker 1: half and they ended up only taking a couple more
Speaker 1: five more so sixteen for nineteen in the game, and
Speaker 1: the Sixers also only missed three twenty one for twenty
Speaker 1: four only turned it over thirteen times the seventy six
Speaker 1: Ers compared to sixteen for Brooklyn. But the Nets win
Speaker 1: by two they withstand the Sixers strong second half. We'll
Speaker 1: have the highlights of this game from start to finish
Speaker 1: coming up. The stat of the game would be Nick
Speaker 1: Claxton's five block shots along with the game winning rebound
Speaker 1: on the offensive glass. He had three offensive rebounds, so
Speaker 1: two to de Ubre and Grimes for the Sixers, who
Speaker 1: had fifteen in the game. But the Nets get their
Speaker 1: twenty first win of the season, Sixers still at twenty.
Speaker 1: Both teams came in twenty and thirty five, and it's
Speaker 1: a seven game losing streak for Philadelphia. It was the
Speaker 1: fourth and final meeting of the regular season between the
Speaker 1: two Atlantic Division opponents. Sixers had a two to one lead.
Speaker 1: Coming in they had the eleventh spot to the Nets
Speaker 1: twelfth based on having the edge in the series, so
Speaker 1: it was tied record wise, but the Sixers in eleventh
Speaker 1: top ten get into the playoff picture via the play
Speaker 1: in tournament these days and the Bulls, the Sixers next
Speaker 1: opponent Monday, are in the tenth spot still despite the
Speaker 1: loss to Phoenix that preceded this game. In Philadelphia, it
Speaker 1: was Lonnie Walker the fourths seventy six Ers debut. He
Speaker 1: only played in the first half, didn't score the Redding,
Speaker 1: PA Native We're here on the Parks Casino postgame show.
Speaker 1: The Sixers had the same inactives Justin Edwards, Eric Gordon,
Speaker 1: Kyle Lowry and Jerry McCain. Brooklyn was without D'Angelo Russell
Speaker 1: and Cam Thomas, among others. And let's hear how the
Speaker 1: game sounded, as called by Tom McGuinness, Sixers nets. In
Speaker 1: Philly it was HBCU Celebration night. The Delaware State marching band,
Speaker 1: the Approaching Storm did the national anthem as well as
Speaker 1: the halftime performance. Sixers in white uniforms, Nets in black uniforms,
Speaker 1: and it was all nets in the first quarter. Defensively,
Speaker 1: they came in leading the NBA in defensive rating in
Speaker 1: the month of February. But Tyrese Maxie still was able
Speaker 1: to score against this Nets defense, particularly early, as with
Speaker 1: the three, the Sixers go up seven to two.
Speaker 3: Maxi for three and that's good. Johnson was right there
Speaker 3: man Maxie making the three with daft the Sixes are
Speaker 3: up by five, ten to fifteen in the first seven two.
Speaker 3: As mentioned, thirteen of his fifteen first half points were
Speaker 3: in the first quarter. He made three threes in the half.
Speaker 3: But in that first Brooklyn shot fifteen for twenty from
Speaker 3: the field, two for three from three to eight for
Speaker 3: nine from the foul line, seventy five percent shooting for
Speaker 3: the Brooklyn That's only their fifth forty point quarter any
Speaker 3: quarter of the season and led forty thirty. Cam Johnson
Speaker 3: had ten points in the first quarter, and he was
Speaker 3: also part of the Visitors going up big in the
Speaker 3: second right before their largest lead of the game. It
Speaker 3: was Johnson on the cut Brooklyn by twelve, four and
Speaker 3: a half to go back door Johnson, he got by
Speaker 3: Paul George. When you spread to court, there are some
Speaker 3: wanes for cutting. They executed that Will Johnson. Will the
Speaker 3: lay up piece got twelve to lead the Nets.
Speaker 1: Twenty three points total for Cam Johnson fifty five forty one,
Speaker 1: and then Nick Claxton would build the lead with a
Speaker 1: basket to sixty forty three, forcing a Sixers time out,
Speaker 1: largest lead of the game out of the timeout, though
Speaker 1: Joel Embiid.
Speaker 3: Here's in b with a seventeen footer and that's good,
Speaker 3: wide open outside the right elbow and beating out two
Speaker 3: of six Ubra with the disc Sixers nine assists on fourteen.
Speaker 1: Field goals Grimes and Oubra after Embiid helped the Sixers
Speaker 1: get within single digits, but it was it ended up
Speaker 1: going back to double digits Nets sixty three six Ers
Speaker 1: fiftyfty two at halftime and the Sixers on the season
Speaker 1: three and twenty six record when trailing at the half
Speaker 1: to the third quarter. After you heard that MBD bucket.
Speaker 1: He had ten of his fourteen points tonight in the
Speaker 1: first half. He also had five first half assists. All
Speaker 1: five of his assists were in the first so he
Speaker 1: was trying to get Maxie and others open, particularly towards
Speaker 1: the start of this game. Sixty three fifty two six
Speaker 1: Ers trailed into the third quarter. Kelly Ubray Junior did
Speaker 1: most of his work scoring wise in the second half,
Speaker 1: and this one off a Quentin Grimes assist. They had
Speaker 1: active second half minutes. Maxi with it three on three,
Speaker 1: left to right to Grimes. Now that a trailing Ubre
Speaker 1: down the lane, puts it up and he gets it
Speaker 1: in on Claxton Rubray, a left hand player, shifted it
Speaker 1: to the right and laid it in.
Speaker 3: He's two of eight six.
Speaker 1: Ers down twelve ended seven of sixteen Kelly Ubray. It
Speaker 1: was seventy one to fifty nine Brooklyn. He had twelve
Speaker 1: of his fourteen points in the game in the second half,
Speaker 1: eight of those in the third quarter. But the Nets
Speaker 1: shot zero for five from three in the third. Sixer
Speaker 1: shot one for ten from three in that third quarter,
Speaker 1: and it was eighty three seventy six Brooklyn into the
Speaker 1: fourth quarter, but things got very interesting. Sixers trailed eighty
Speaker 1: seven eighty after a Quentin Grimes steal and slam, and
Speaker 1: then Paul George cut it to five with some more
Speaker 1: Quinton Grimes defense. Oubre dunk for eighty nine eighty six
Speaker 1: Brooklyn as the Sixers comeback, was fully on trendon. Watford,
Speaker 1: though would put Brooklyn back up two possessions with an
Speaker 1: and one. He had eleven points in the second half,
Speaker 1: sixteen in the game. And then fast forwarding to one
Speaker 1: possession game ninety four ninety two Brooklyn after Maxie's layup,
Speaker 1: and then the Sixers for their first lead since the
Speaker 1: early stages. It's Maxie on the assist out to Grimes so.
Speaker 3: The Sixers can tire or take the lead. Four to
Speaker 3: twenty to go. Maxie with a backpedaling Keon Johnson defending
Speaker 3: him Crimes of the screen. Cam Johnson switches out on
Speaker 3: Tyres twelve to shoot back to Quentin Grimes three bowl
Speaker 3: shot near fully and it's good. Quinton Crimes trails a
Speaker 3: triple and the Sixers lead for the first time since
Speaker 3: the early moments.
Speaker 1: Quinn Grimes three threes his sixth game as a Sixer,
Speaker 1: traded for Caleb Martin coming from Dallas sixteen point seven
Speaker 1: rebounds right on his averages, basically as a seventy six er.
Speaker 1: Huge shot for Grimes. The Sixers are up ninety five
Speaker 1: ninety four. Then Oubre made it a three point Sixers
Speaker 1: lead with a dunk. I mentioned that Cam Johnson his
Speaker 1: loan three was well timed. Ninety seven ninety seven. So
Speaker 1: two was Keon Johnson's loan three pointer of the game.
Speaker 1: Two nets starters, but that is a couple of possessions
Speaker 1: away because after Cam tied it, it's Tyrese Maxi in
Speaker 1: that step back three and it's Grimes returning the favor
Speaker 1: this time.
Speaker 3: Top of the arc, ninety shoot. Three minutes to go
Speaker 3: in the game, Quinton Crimes on the dribble back to Maxi.
Speaker 3: Maxi fires for three. It's up in god, he nailed
Speaker 3: another one. He's fourth three in the game. Nine chiples
Speaker 3: for the Sixers, and they've taken a three pointedge. One
Speaker 3: and ninety seven. Maxi with twenty eight points.
Speaker 1: But there was Trendon Watford one hundred ninety nine, got
Speaker 1: the nets within one, then the key On Johnson three
Speaker 1: for a two point lead. But Tyrese Maxey had four
Speaker 1: threes after that last one. He wasn't done. Maxi going
Speaker 1: for five, Watford five to shoot, backing, turning leans back
Speaker 1: out top Keon Johnson for three.
Speaker 3: No good rebound. Crime six is Paul twenty five seconds ago,
Speaker 3: Paul George in the front court, timing upside Maxi for
Speaker 3: the tie. It's up, Let's go Maxie nailed to pray
Speaker 3: twenty two seconds to.
Speaker 1: Go, tied at one oh three. Honestly, I had assumed
Speaker 1: time out coming Brooklyn had one. They played it out
