WEBVTT - The BroadCast: 3/30/2019 ~ Rewind vs. Timberwolves 0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:04.000 This is seventy Sixers Rewind time now to listen back 0:00:04.040 --> 0:00:07.440 to postgame reaction from the team's most recent game. With 0:00:07.640 --> 0:00:10.360 seven games remaining on the season and the seventy Sixers 0:00:10.400 --> 0:00:13.160 embarking on a three game road trip, they get things 0:00:13.240 --> 0:00:16.759 underway in the Twin Cities, coming away with the victory 0:00:16.880 --> 0:00:20.960 against a feisty Minnesota Timberwolves team. With the victory one 0:00:21.040 --> 0:00:23.400 eighteen one o nine the Sixes and now forty nine 0:00:23.400 --> 0:00:25.840 and twenty seven on the season. Hello all, welcome to 0:00:25.880 --> 0:00:28.920 the Sixes postgame show here on the Sixes Radio Network. 0:00:28.920 --> 0:00:32.479 I'm Divine Givens as the seventy Sixes again victorious one 0:00:32.560 --> 0:00:37.000 eighteen one oh nine over Minnesota, a very highly competitive game, 0:00:37.159 --> 0:00:40.560 Minnesota coming off of a tough, tough, emotional contest against 0:00:40.560 --> 0:00:43.479 the Golden State Warriors last night, with the win and 0:00:43.600 --> 0:00:47.320 still battle to the end against the seventy Sixes, making 0:00:47.360 --> 0:00:50.600 Philadelphia earned this win and it was a very very 0:00:50.600 --> 0:00:52.400 good one with a lot of good things to talk 0:00:52.440 --> 0:00:55.720 about as again, now six games remaining on this twenty 0:00:55.760 --> 0:00:58.000 eighteen nineteen campaign, with a lot of good things to 0:00:58.080 --> 0:01:00.600 focus on as they get ready to travel to Dallas 0:01:00.640 --> 0:01:03.000 to take on a Mavericks on Monday. But before they 0:01:03.040 --> 0:01:05.920 do that, we of course get into this particular game 0:01:05.959 --> 0:01:08.920 and how things happen in this victory. We do head 0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:11.720 back to the Target Center right now to check back 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:14.160 in with the voice of the Philadelphia seventy sixes, and 0:01:14.200 --> 0:01:16.920 that would be Tom mcguinnis and Tom. After a tough 0:01:17.400 --> 0:01:20.360 few games, two game stretch of course last week against 0:01:20.360 --> 0:01:23.520 the Atlanta Hawks and the Orlando Magic, going back home 0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:26.199 on during the weekend, picking up the victory, now heading 0:01:26.319 --> 0:01:28.759 out to Minnesota to start this three game road trip. 0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:31.600 Very good start, very important start, as this team again 0:01:31.640 --> 0:01:34.800 wise down a regular season, but without overlooking the competition, 0:01:35.480 --> 0:01:38.440 no doubt about it, and to hold on and withstand 0:01:38.480 --> 0:01:42.680 the charge that Minnesota made and still win the game 0:01:42.720 --> 0:01:45.000 on the road. Now again I thought they were a 0:01:45.040 --> 0:01:49.680 little flat, but again they came charging back. And it's 0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:51.320 hard to win on the road in the NBA. I 0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:53.360 I don't care what a team's record is, and they're 0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:56.400 not that far. I know they're not gonna make it 0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:59.120 in the West. But Minnesota has won twenty four games 0:01:59.120 --> 0:02:02.360 at home, thirty four games overall. They clearly have a 0:02:02.400 --> 0:02:05.720 lot of talent and Wiggins and Karl Anthony Towns, who 0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:08.600 was third team All the NBA last year, and to 0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:12.320 win this game, and to do it with multiple players 0:02:12.320 --> 0:02:15.840 having great nights, I think is certainly strides in the 0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:18.720 right direction. The win over Brooklyn and like you said, 0:02:18.800 --> 0:02:22.680 kind of offsetting those two frustrating and dismal performances in 0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:25.880 Atlanta and Orlando, and now they go down to Dallas 0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:29.160 feeling good about themselves and a nice road victory for 0:02:29.160 --> 0:02:32.120 the six years all at all, absolutely, especially staving off 0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:34.800 that nice run spearheaded by the second unit to get 0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:37.079 Minnesota back into it. But I want to piggyback a 0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:38.960 little bit of time off of your Jonah Bolden point, 0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:42.160 as you talked about during the end of your postgame coverage, 0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:44.600 where he was just phenomenal and we know that how 0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:46.400 things go with him be being in there. And it 0:02:46.440 --> 0:02:49.400 looks like bobam Marianivitch will probably get the first few 0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:53.480 minutes off the bench as the primary big man. But situationally, 0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:56.840 as Brett Brown looks at certain teams, whoever the matchup 0:02:56.960 --> 0:02:59.560 might be, when you have Jonah Bolden, as you pointed out, 0:02:59.639 --> 0:03:03.400 having up and down runs during the season. This has 0:03:03.440 --> 0:03:05.040 been one of his better games, of course with the 0:03:05.080 --> 0:03:07.840 career high in nineteen, but also staying on the glass 0:03:07.919 --> 0:03:10.760 and getting the three black shots. He really did, and 0:03:10.800 --> 0:03:14.760 he competes, and he's got great athleticism for that size, 0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:17.639 and tonight I thought what he did is he kept 0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:20.240 it simple. He cat he caught it outside the arc 0:03:20.280 --> 0:03:22.520 and shot it. And the reason I say that is 0:03:22.600 --> 0:03:25.840 sometimes he gets into a little too much dribbling, he's 0:03:25.840 --> 0:03:29.320 a little uncertain on terms of drive and passing it 0:03:29.320 --> 0:03:32.800 and then gets himself into a few turnover situations. Tonight, 0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:34.480 none of that, you know, Like I said, he was 0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:38.640 a very effective outside shore. Took seven threes, made five, 0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:41.960 and then defensively he did the best he could against 0:03:42.000 --> 0:03:44.880 Towns and was a presence in there. And that's saying 0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:47.160 something when when you consider that he's filling in for 0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:49.800 Joella Bead who is, without questioned one of the best 0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:52.880 defensive players in the NBA. And then again it was 0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:54.680 kind of and it's going to be by committee a 0:03:54.720 --> 0:03:58.200 little bit with bobad and with a mirror and so 0:03:58.680 --> 0:04:00.520 nicely done by the six Ers against one of the 0:04:00.520 --> 0:04:03.240 best big men in the NBA. A game high plus 0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:06.240 twenty two for Jonah Bolden with his nineteen points, eight rebounds, 0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:08.960 and three block shots five or seven from deep for 0:04:09.160 --> 0:04:11.880 Jonah Bolden Town Aginning is joining from the Target Center 0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:14.560 as the Sixers win one eighteen one oh nine over 0:04:14.600 --> 0:04:17.000 the Minnesota Timberwolves, and of course time this one being 0:04:17.000 --> 0:04:19.800 an emotional one for Jimmy Butler heading back to Minnesota. 0:04:19.960 --> 0:04:21.840 And of course we could hear it through the radio, 0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:23.520 but now that we have you a little more where 0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:26.200 you can maybe detail a little bit how how interesting 0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:29.800 it was for Jimmy Butler and that Minnesota crowd tonight. Well, 0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:32.560 and sometimes divon you'll you'll even pose it this way, 0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:35.039 like what's the vibe in the town. And like I said, 0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:38.400 when you got here, we stayed like right next to 0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:41.800 the arena, and I was here last night and at 0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:44.080 the game with the Warriors, and you could just get 0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:47.039 a feel from being around the town that they were 0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:50.240 this was a much anticipated return. It was a sellout 0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:54.279 crowd and they were really, you know, gonna get after 0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:56.480 Jimmy Butler. And you could just tell her you be 0:04:56.640 --> 0:04:59.520 talking to people, you could sense it. And then as 0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:01.320 I said, you know, they did the first I don't 0:05:01.320 --> 0:05:03.560 know how they typically introduced the visitors, but they made 0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:06.680 sure that he was the first person introduced the PA 0:05:06.800 --> 0:05:10.080 man used a very subdued tone. Again I've said this 0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:13.280 multiple times, but I thought the selection of yours Solvain 0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:18.200 was somewhat funny. Jimmy got it, that's for sure, and yeah, 0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:20.840 so he took it in stride and he laughed. And 0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:24.600 you know so, I wonder because he had this play 0:05:24.680 --> 0:05:27.080 early in the game where Ben had thrown a long 0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:30.719 down court pass and Jimmy was going up against Towns 0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:34.320 and landed, and initially it seemed as though maybe Towns, 0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:36.320 well they did collide, but maybe that he got a 0:05:36.360 --> 0:05:39.800 knee or whatever in the small lower right portion of 0:05:39.880 --> 0:05:42.640 Jimmy Butler's back. But when I watched it again, I 0:05:42.680 --> 0:05:44.800 think he just kind of twisted and corked a little 0:05:44.800 --> 0:05:48.040 bit and landed awkwardly, and Jimmy Butler went down and 0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:51.160 the crowd this one did not like. Kind of shades 0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:54.240 of Veteran Stadium and Troy Aikman getting booed by the 0:05:54.240 --> 0:05:55.680 Eagles fans, you know what I mean, when he had 0:05:55.680 --> 0:05:58.080 a head injury. And I know that's not this is 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:00.720 not assay, but they were they were kind of cheering. 0:06:00.920 --> 0:06:03.119 I didn't like that for a split second a player 0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:06.039 just got hurt, I don't care demanding a trade or whatever. 0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:08.120 That was a little bit awkward there for them. And 0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:10.200 then Butler stayed in the game, So that was good 0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:12.560 to see him. My point being that he struggled from 0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:15.200 the field and going four of seventeen. But you know, 0:06:15.360 --> 0:06:17.719 maybe he was a little bit off from that. You know, 0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:20.120 who's to say. It's hard to speculate, but you know, 0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:22.240 you twist your back a little bit. That's difficult to 0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:25.760 get on track offensively. But again, he's the type of 0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:28.160 player that racks up numbers even though he has an 0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:32.120 off night in one area of the court. So I 0:06:32.160 --> 0:06:35.000 think we got a wedding proposal. One hundred and sixers 0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:36.680 fans in front of me, two of whom are on 0:06:36.720 --> 0:06:39.320 the court. It is a man and a woman. Yeah, 0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:41.800 he's getting down on one. We got played by player 0:06:41.880 --> 0:06:45.280 the income from there in Minnesota, travel all the way 0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:47.960 to Minnesota to do it. Just got got six ers. 0:06:48.080 --> 0:06:51.719 Jersey's on. It is being documented at this young couple 0:06:51.720 --> 0:06:53.719 will be getting there. I don't know why I'm talking 0:06:53.720 --> 0:06:56.920 like Howard Cosella. It was pretty neat. This is neat 0:06:56.960 --> 0:07:00.239 this group last year there in Milwaukee. A few years 0:07:00.240 --> 0:07:03.640 ago they were in Brooklyn, and they are they've been. 0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:06.039 Like I said, initially their seats were way up in 0:07:06.040 --> 0:07:09.200 the upper bowl in the far reaches of Section two sixteen, 0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:11.960 and now they're directly in front of my locale here. 0:07:12.000 --> 0:07:15.480 There's even the Minnesota guys. Jim Peterson does the television 0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:18.360 and he's videotaping them as well. So check that out 0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:21.520 on Twitter. But my funniest line that they ever had, 0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:25.040 and this was I guess maybe four years ago the 0:07:25.120 --> 0:07:27.640 sixes where Barclay Center not a good game, as I 0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:32.360 recall against the Nets, and this group has, uh you know, 0:07:32.440 --> 0:07:34.800 they have a little bit of a snarky attitude a 0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:36.760 little bit. And I say when I say what, I'm 0:07:36.800 --> 0:07:38.600 gonna tell you what they said. They were yelling in 0:07:38.760 --> 0:07:44.880 Unison we got pick swaps, a trade deal we had 0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:49.360 that the pick swap was thought that was so funny. 0:07:49.400 --> 0:07:51.760 I mean, that's clever, what I mean, like that that's 0:07:51.800 --> 0:07:55.120 our big thing. Wa you got pick So I think 0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:57.480 that's what I mean by snark, just a little bit 0:07:57.480 --> 0:08:00.880 of sarcasm and movie. So but hey, come on, three 0:08:01.000 --> 0:08:04.600 hundred people and then they didn't bust here from from Philadelphia, 0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:06.560 I would I would imagine they flew here. So it's 0:08:06.600 --> 0:08:08.840 neat to have the support. And like I said, you 0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:11.120 could hear at the very beginning of the game and 0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:14.400 for a split second because there you see dozens and 0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:17.800 dozens and hundreds of Sixers fans around the league now 0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:20.400 but not in mass like this. It's pretty cool. Well, 0:08:20.440 --> 0:08:22.680 it's great to see that. Of course, the masses going 0:08:22.720 --> 0:08:25.880 out there following the basketball team as they embarking the 0:08:25.880 --> 0:08:28.000 playoffs and with that time before we get you out 0:08:28.000 --> 0:08:30.560 of here, of course, as people do watch the standings 0:08:30.600 --> 0:08:34.920 in Indiana falling to the Orlando Magic tonight one one sixteen, 0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:37.600 in Boston falling one ten to ninety six, now four 0:08:37.600 --> 0:08:39.559 and a half games back of the Sixers. Both teams. 0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:42.000 No big day, big day. There was like a week 0:08:42.080 --> 0:08:44.240 or so ago. There was that day where they both 0:08:44.280 --> 0:08:46.760 lost and the Sixers were in the throws of that 0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:48.920 six game winning streak win the Pacers. The Pacers have 0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:51.960 now lost ten straight road games and they come home 0:08:51.960 --> 0:08:55.160 and lose to Orlando and then Boston going to Brooklyn. 0:08:55.200 --> 0:08:56.520 I thought that was gonna be a tough game for 0:08:56.600 --> 0:08:58.240 the Nets, and that they had just come off this 0:08:58.679 --> 0:09:01.959 seven game road trip. But Russell has twenty of twenty 0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:05.000 nine in the third, and to me that seals the 0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:08.000 deal where the Sixers are gonna finish third. They have 0:09:08.040 --> 0:09:10.000 a four what four and a half game lead now 0:09:10.040 --> 0:09:13.480 on the seas for fourth, the difference between third and 0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:17.079 fourth with Philadelphia in third, and so the way it's 0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:21.760 shaping up, it's obviously going to be either Detroit or Brooklyn. 0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:24.640 And the Sixers won three or four against the Pistons, 0:09:24.640 --> 0:09:28.720 average margin of victory by ten. I think Detroit's playing 0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:32.240 better now, and obviously they had difficulty but split the 0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:35.560 two games with Brooklyn. But to Brett Brown's point, you know, 0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:39.760 to be healthy, to have Joe already, to be playing 0:09:39.840 --> 0:09:43.920 confident and raring to go with home court advantage in 0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:47.240 the playoffs, you certainly you love the Sixers chances. And 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:50.680 that also is a time, especially now within beat out, 0:09:50.720 --> 0:09:53.760 where whether they played together eight games, is this first 0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:56.920 five where even in the playoffs, with the rhythm of 0:09:56.920 --> 0:09:59.680 a game every other day, you can kind of you 0:09:59.720 --> 0:10:03.240 can build toward the latter stages of the playoffs, one 0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:06.200 would hope. In other words, you know, get that Galvin 0:10:06.360 --> 0:10:10.760 Gallini's feeling in the playoffs too, so it's gonna be exciting. 0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:13.199 It's look, the Sixers are about to win their fiftieth 0:10:13.240 --> 0:10:16.160 game for the second year in a row.

Mike Scott with 0:13:14.320 --> 0:13:17.400 the eighth three by the Sixers at their leading Minnesota 0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:21.400 by eighteen points. Are you kiddy me? It's thirty eight 0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:24.800 to twenty six and eight of thirteen in the first 0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:27.559 quarter from behind the three point line, four sixty one 0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:31.200 percent from deep fifteen to twenty nine overall from the 0:13:31.200 --> 0:13:33.520 floor and Mike Scott two of three from deep in 0:13:33.600 --> 0:13:35.800 the first quarter for his eight points. Again. It's time again. 0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:37.920 It's just pointing out. Thirty eight to twenty is the score. 0:13:38.200 --> 0:13:41.080 Jimmy Butler, as we know, of course, heading back, very 0:13:41.120 --> 0:13:45.760 emotional to Minnesota, very ferocious to the room. Harris drives 0:13:45.760 --> 0:13:47.319 it all the way down, goes I've missed it, but 0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:51.320 a Shimmy Butler with a rebound bottle. Harris took two 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:53.839 wolves with him by that drive to the glass. When 0:13:53.920 --> 0:13:56.240 he missed it, it's cleaned up with a two hands 0:13:56.280 --> 0:13:59.000 stuff of put back dup by Butler. Time out Minnesota. 0:13:59.120 --> 0:14:02.880 Twelve points on night for Jimmy Butler, contributing thirteen rebounds 0:14:02.880 --> 0:14:04.640 since he didn't score as well as he would have liked, 0:14:04.640 --> 0:14:07.040 four of seventeen from the field, so he also got 0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:10.320 to it on the glass. A offensive rebound seven on 0:14:10.400 --> 0:14:13.160 the night for Jimmy Butler. That one right there in 0:14:13.200 --> 0:14:16.800 a dunking variety. Tobias Harris a little bit earlier, who 0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:19.320 led the seventy sixers in scoring with twenty five points, 0:14:19.360 --> 0:14:21.760 connecting three of eight from deep here is one from 0:14:21.760 --> 0:14:24.200 beyond the art nine to shoot. Tobias to the right 0:14:24.240 --> 0:14:27.120 of the key, shoots at Gorgi Chang and that's good. 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:33.120 Nine made threes by the Sixers. Tobias Harris now has three. 0:14:33.200 --> 0:14:36.640 He's a double figures, whole weaven, smooth rhythm shot from 0:14:36.920 --> 0:14:40.520 Tobias Harris. We've got accustomed to seeing that, growing accustomed 0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:42.960 to seeing that. Over the couple of months with the 0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:46.400 acquisition of Tobias Harris from Los Angeles to scores sixty 0:14:46.440 --> 0:14:49.720 eight fifty five at the break. Jonah Bold in nineteen 0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:52.800 points a career high five of seven from deep. Here 0:14:52.800 --> 0:14:55.800 he is again connecting from the perimeter. Harris puts it 0:14:55.880 --> 0:14:58.480 up no good, Butler gets the rebound sections back out 0:14:58.480 --> 0:15:02.840 the Jonah Bolded three. It's good. Showed up bolding with 0:15:02.960 --> 0:15:05.600 his third three of the game. Shimmy Butler set up 0:15:05.600 --> 0:15:09.000 a second chance at the sixers Perry. They're eleven three 0:15:09.040 --> 0:15:11.880 of the game. Jimmy Butler with one of his seven 0:15:11.880 --> 0:15:15.840 offensive rebounds, hitting Jonah Bolden connecting, not thinking about it 0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:17.880 as time again is pointing it out, knocking it down, 0:15:17.960 --> 0:15:21.880 making it seventy eight to sixty one. JJ Reddick a 0:15:21.920 --> 0:15:24.000 little bit of a quiet night for him, only two 0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:27.360 or five from the perimeter, five from ten from the 0:15:27.400 --> 0:15:31.320 field overall four sixteen points. But he does connect from deep, 0:15:31.400 --> 0:15:33.400 as Time Again has pointed out for a two hundred 0:15:33.400 --> 0:15:36.440 time on the season. Sippings in the traffic out top 0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:39.200 JJ and turned to Mike Scott with a runner really short, 0:15:39.280 --> 0:15:41.960 no rebound of Beer Johnson back out top Reddick three, 0:15:41.960 --> 0:15:44.880 boult in the air he j J Reddick rip. So 0:15:44.920 --> 0:15:48.280 that's he's got his second three good offensive rebound by 0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:51.160 a Beer Johnson. Eighty seven to seventy five was the 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:53.840 score at that point. At the end of three ninety two, 0:15:53.960 --> 0:15:57.640 eighty one six is up eleven as the Minnesota Tymberwolves 0:15:57.640 --> 0:16:01.040 then begun to storm back with the second u head 0:16:01.120 --> 0:16:04.760 led by Listen Jared Bailes out there giving him some 0:16:04.800 --> 0:16:08.520 good run and Anthony Tolliver knocking down from deep. Cameron Reynolds, 0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:12.160 who's beginning an opportunity with the Minnesota Timberwolves in the NBA, 0:16:12.480 --> 0:16:15.680 pushing that team to it. But as they got closer 0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:19.000 ninety seven to ninety four, Jonah Bolden with an offensive 0:16:19.000 --> 0:16:23.160 rebound hitting James Ennis kickout to buyas faceline three bold 0:16:23.280 --> 0:16:26.640 back riverint alt no offensive rebound, Bolden out tennis. This 0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:30.760 would be big James Ennis knocking down the cred Jonah 0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:33.680 Buller with the offensive port to kick out at Edis 0:16:33.680 --> 0:16:36.880 with the thirteenth eighth three of the game for the Sixers. 0:16:37.120 --> 0:16:39.920 It's a six point game, big ones right there. One 0:16:39.920 --> 0:16:41.840 of three from deep from James Ennis, two of six 0:16:41.920 --> 0:16:44.520 from the floor overall for his five points. But it's 0:16:44.560 --> 0:16:46.400 his first game back from the injury that kept him 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:49.080 off the floor in the two games during the week, 0:16:49.120 --> 0:16:51.320 so it's good to see him back there contributing in 0:16:51.360 --> 0:16:54.040 the minutes that he gave in sixteen thirty five. Once again, 0:16:54.320 --> 0:16:57.400 a nice rebound, four offensive rebounds for Jonah Bolden tonight. 0:16:57.440 --> 0:16:59.920 That one huge for the seventy sixers, Jonah bold And 0:17:00.000 --> 0:17:01.880 again connecting from deep to make it one oh five 0:17:02.040 --> 0:17:04.639 ninety eight. Andrew Wiggins with a layup off of a 0:17:04.720 --> 0:17:07.520 Ben Simmons turnover, cut it down to three points one 0:17:07.520 --> 0:17:09.840 oh five, one oh two, but Tobias Harris with a 0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:13.280 may field goal and a and one a Karl Anthony 0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:16.240 Town's technical JJ Reddick makes the free throw at four 0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:18.520 point play overall for the Sixes to extend the lead 0:17:18.600 --> 0:17:21.880 one on nine ninety two. Jonah Bolden sealed the deal 0:17:22.040 --> 0:17:25.640 late in the game Shimmons JJ now Rereddick couple team. 0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:28.800 Reddick drives at Rddick to the corner shoulder catcher shoot. 0:17:28.960 --> 0:17:32.600 It's Joda Bollers night, been up players. He knocked down 0:17:32.680 --> 0:17:36.920 its fifth three fifty three of the night, five of 0:17:37.040 --> 0:17:40.760 seven from deep, a career high nineteen points four the 0:17:40.920 --> 0:17:44.880 rookie center from Australia courtesy of course of UCLA, and 0:17:45.280 --> 0:17:47.280 it was good to see him out there. You get 0:17:47.280 --> 0:17:49.679 to see him from time to time, certainly with the 0:17:49.720 --> 0:17:54.200 situational lineup adjustments that Brett Brown likes to go to. 0:17:54.560 --> 0:17:58.200 Not a big, heavy minute night for bobam Marianovic, off 0:17:58.240 --> 0:18:01.320 the bench for seven of seven minutes and nineteen seconds 0:18:01.359 --> 0:18:03.440 did give you six points. But he also found a 0:18:03.480 --> 0:18:06.440 way to implement Amir Johnson into the game as well 0:18:06.440 --> 0:18:08.879 when we heard about the offensive rebound the JJ reddick 0:18:08.920 --> 0:18:10.760 early and late in the third quarter to make it 0:18:10.840 --> 0:18:13.480 eighty seven to eighty five. So it will basically go 0:18:13.640 --> 0:18:17.400 off of how Brett Brown feels the matchup matchups are. 0:18:17.800 --> 0:18:21.600 Pardon me, I would think going forward when Joel Embiad 0:18:21.720 --> 0:18:23.520 is not there for the next two games, of course 0:18:23.600 --> 0:18:26.320 due to some wrest love management, and certainly wants the 0:18:26.359 --> 0:18:29.600 postseason gets going, seeing how he likes to use those 0:18:29.640 --> 0:18:33.000 backup minutes at the five spot. But Sir j Bolden 0:18:33.480 --> 0:18:36.640 making the most of his opportunity tonight seven of ten 0:18:36.760 --> 0:18:39.560 once again from the floor, five of seven from deep, 0:18:39.560 --> 0:18:44.560 four his nineteen points, grabbing eight rebounds for offensive for defensive. 0:18:44.840 --> 0:18:47.160 It made the most of his fouls five fouls tonight, 0:18:47.160 --> 0:18:48.680 but he was going against an All Stars center, so 0:18:48.800 --> 0:18:50.840 you know how that's gonna go from time to time. 0:18:51.080 --> 0:18:54.640 Three block shots, three assists, and again a game high 0:18:54.720 --> 0:18:58.520 plus twenty two in the plus minus category for Jonah Bolden. 0:18:58.600 --> 0:19:01.320 So a very good showing for him in Minnesota against 0:19:01.680 --> 0:19:04.840 where he went against head to head all star Carl 0:19:04.840 --> 0:19:08.240 Anthony Towns and battled him. Towns with twenty one points 0:19:08.400 --> 0:19:11.720 and seven rebounds for the Minnesota Timberwolves on eight of 0:19:11.800 --> 0:19:15.280 seventeen shooting. Minnesota was led by Andrew Wiggins and his 0:19:15.359 --> 0:19:18.480 twenty four points on the night. Once again for the 0:19:18.480 --> 0:19:21.560 seventy six is to buyas Harris led all scores tonight 0:19:21.600 --> 0:19:25.720 with twenty five points. Ben Simmons one shy, one assists, 0:19:25.760 --> 0:19:28.800 shy of a triple double in his thirty six minutes 0:19:28.800 --> 0:19:31.760 in eighteen seconds, eight of eleven from the floor, four 0:19:31.800 --> 0:19:34.919 of six from the free throw line, eleven rebounds, nine assists, 0:19:34.960 --> 0:19:37.359 five turnovers, so a high turnover game again for Ben Simmons. 0:19:37.400 --> 0:19:39.359 Hopefully he gets that down. He has been much better 0:19:39.520 --> 0:19:42.480 in that category overall. Twelve points for Jimmy Butler, but 0:19:42.680 --> 0:19:45.879 did grab thirteen rebounds and dish out five assists in 0:19:45.960 --> 0:19:48.920 JJ Redick with his sixteen on the evening, Mike Scott 0:19:49.000 --> 0:19:51.640 led the bench unit with ten points, Bobana Marianovid six, 0:19:51.760 --> 0:19:54.680 James and his five TJ McConnell with three one to 0:19:54.760 --> 0:19:57.920 five shooting in eleven fourteen eleven forty two. Run for 0:19:58.359 --> 0:20:01.760 your backup point guard and again Johnson contributing two boards 0:20:01.800 --> 0:20:04.840
