Speaker 2: the Oklahoma City the Thunder. They will host the New
Speaker 2: York Knicks tomorrow. The Thunder our first place in the
Speaker 2: West Knicks or third in the East Thunder with a
Speaker 2: one to eighteen one oh two victory in Philly to
Speaker 2: get to thirty three and six. Sixers playing without eight players,
Speaker 2: including the Big three of MB, George and Maxi, their
Speaker 2: record is now fifteen and twenty three. Matt Murphy here
Speaker 2: with you on our Parks Casino post game show. I'll
Speaker 2: reconnect with Tom McGinnis. Shortly, we'll hear from Sixers coach
Speaker 2: Nick Nurse his postgame comments in a game that a
Speaker 2: shorthanded Sixers team clawed their way all the way back
Speaker 2: into this a six point game going to the fourth
Speaker 2: quarter eighty seven eighty one, and you would may have
Speaker 2: expected with increase playing time that guys would hit career
Speaker 2: high totals, and Jeff Didton Junior and Justin Edwards were
Speaker 2: up to the task off the Sixers bench. In thirty
Speaker 2: five minutes, Edwards goes for eighteen em best twenty five points,
Speaker 2: which is a new NBA career high. He had eleven
Speaker 2: in the Brooklyn game on the road last weekend or
Speaker 2: two weekends ago. I guess Dalton had eighteen tonight. He
Speaker 2: had twelve in the second half, twelve on the number
Speaker 2: was his NBA career high coming into this one. Seventeen
Speaker 2: for Yabusele, thirteen for Ricky Council, the fourth who made
Speaker 2: his first career NBA start, Eric Gordon had ten for
Speaker 2: Philadelphia as a starter. Game high honors went to Shay
Speaker 2: Gilgis Alexander Goes for thirty two. He averages thirty one
Speaker 2: point four, which is tied for Giannis to lead the
Speaker 2: NBA rankings thirty two points, nine assists, did have four turnovers,
Speaker 2: shot twelve of fifteen. Caseon Wallace had a season high
Speaker 2: eighteen points. Jalen Williams in between them with twenty four.
Speaker 2: The Santa Clara Jalen Williams, who is their second leading scorer.
Speaker 2: Chet Holmgren is still out twenty four points for Jalen
Speaker 2: Williams on eight of fifteen shooting. They turned the ball
Speaker 2: over eighteen times, but twelve of those were in the
Speaker 2: first half. Sixers turned it over twenty two times. That
Speaker 2: led to twenty nine points, eight of those in the
Speaker 2: in the second half. Six in the game for Council.
Speaker 2: Five in the game for the starting point guard Tonight
Speaker 2: Reggie Jackson, who played sixteen minutes and fifty three seconds
Speaker 2: for the Sixers. They shot forty four percent to Oklahoma
Speaker 2: City's fifty five point six They made Thunder made twelve threes.
Speaker 2: Sixers made thirteen again a one to eighteen one oh
Speaker 2: two Oklahoma City Thunder win. On the road. They have
Speaker 2: now won eighteen of their last nineteen games. They've got
Speaker 2: a huge rematch coming up on Thursday. They just ended
Speaker 2: a four game road trip here in Philly that began
Speaker 2: with a game in Cleveland, which is the top team
Speaker 2: in the East, Calves, the top team in the West,
Speaker 2: the Thunder. Now they'll get a visit from the Calves
Speaker 2: with a chance for revenge on Thursday. Here's Tom mcguinnis,
Speaker 2: how about that game on on Thursday, the Calves and
Speaker 2: the Thunder again. Everyone the NBA world will certainly be
Speaker 2: be watching that.
Speaker 1: Well, obviously the cliche would be potentially finals preview, but
Speaker 1: I'm sure Boston will have something to say about that.
Speaker 1: But nonetheless, those two teams have the best records. They
Speaker 1: just had a great game. This could have been a
Speaker 1: trap game for him, But no, I thought the Sixers
Speaker 1: young guys really, other than the turnovers, showed themselves. Well.
Speaker 1: Here is I believe coach Nick nurse.
Speaker 3: You know, for most but then we had a little
Speaker 3: you know, a couple of rebounds.
Speaker 4: We got three stops to start the fourth, but they
Speaker 4: got offensive rebounds on all of them. We had a
Speaker 4: couple of turnovers as well, so we kind of didn't
Speaker 4: take advantage of our possessions as a key to the game.
Speaker 4: And we certainly started off early just handed them the ball,
Speaker 4: all right, And then we had a little spat of
Speaker 4: that in the fourth as well, which kind of opened
Speaker 4: the game back up. But for the most part, you know,
Speaker 4: some of these guys played played pretty good, played played
Speaker 4: pretty hard, and executed pretty well.
Speaker 3: Yeah, really good. I mean, I think he's uh really
Speaker 3: really improving again.
Speaker 4: He seems to. He gives a really good effort on
Speaker 4: the defensive end. He's capable of guarding, you know, lots
Speaker 4: of lots of positions defensively, He's got a good feel offensively, again,
Speaker 4: the ball finds him because he's moving at the right
Speaker 4: to the right place at the right time. I thought
Speaker 4: he took a good number of threes that were there.
Speaker 4: I thought he drove when he was supposed to. I
Speaker 4: thought he got off at when he was supposed to
Speaker 4: the most part. So yeah, really really good bright Spot
Speaker 4: there did the tomorrow's game to back to back play
Speaker 4: into Paul, Uh, Maxie and and Kate did not playing tonight? Well,
Speaker 4: I don't know, listen, I I kind of always play
Speaker 4: Who's available? Right and uh I was told that by
Speaker 4: the time the game started, those three guys were out
Speaker 4: and so they weren't available.
Speaker 3: Well did you reactul, you inspect them to be tomorrow
Speaker 3: They don't have don't have an update yet on for tomorrow.
Speaker 1: What was your reaction when you found out before the
Speaker 1: game that those guys were not available?
Speaker 2: Unless you've been missing eight guys.
Speaker 3: Toll, Yeah, you know.
Speaker 4: My reaction is is about the same as it's you know,
Speaker 4: been most.
Speaker 1: Of the year.
Speaker 4: As you take a little bit of a gut punch,
Speaker 4: and then you regroup and figure out the starting lineups,
Speaker 4: and you figure out the rotations, and you figure out
Speaker 4: if what needs to change on the game plan uh
Speaker 4: as quick at as quick as possible and uh and
Speaker 4: then go play.
Speaker 3: Yup got third.
Speaker 2: Quarter plash the year? What really stood out to you?
Speaker 4: Well, we we got good shots almost every possession, right,
Speaker 4: we just we just I mean, yeah, we threw one
Speaker 4: or two in late in the shot clock, but most
Speaker 4: of them we just kept moving it. We were getting
Speaker 4: off the ball. We weren't trying to over dribble it
Speaker 4: when we were guarded. We were we were moving to
Speaker 4: the next side, moving it again and running next action.
Speaker 4: And then the guys were I thought they were hitting
Speaker 4: the paint and they play, They play really good. You know,
Speaker 4: they send a lot of bodies to the paint once
Speaker 4: you once you're in there, so you got to find
Speaker 4: a way to get get it out.
Speaker 3: And I thought our guys did a good job of.
Speaker 4: Getting up and over and out and relocating to be
Speaker 4: open on the perimeter to again create good shots. That
Speaker 4: guys just did a much better job of reading what
Speaker 4: was there.
Speaker 2: Sixers coach Nick Nurse Final score, Final score, the Thunder
Speaker 2: one eighteen, the Sixers one out two. This is our
Speaker 2: Parks Casino post game show. Tom McGinnis Nick Nurse talking
Speaker 2: about Justin Edwards and his career game of twenty five points.
Speaker 2: They liked him coming out of the draft. He went
Speaker 2: undrafted after one season at Kentucky. He is from Philadelphia,
Speaker 2: as I'm sure a lot of people know, had to
Speaker 2: be cool to play in front of iverson same for
Speaker 2: Jeff Dowton, who grew up idolizing Iverson. Both of those
Speaker 2: guys had career nights. I just saw Iverson in the
Speaker 2: back on his way out after the game. You grew
Speaker 2: up watching him too, right, I did.
Speaker 1: I did.
Speaker 2: When the Sixers were in Sacramento, it reminded me of
Speaker 2: coming here. My brother was a ball boy for one
Speaker 2: game against the Kings in two thousand and three, and
Speaker 2: it was Iverson against those Doug Christy, Mike Bibby Kings,
Speaker 2: that Mike Bibby King's team, but both of those guys.
Speaker 2: I got two tickets. My dad and I sat with
Speaker 2: the thundersticks behind the basket. So I remember and get this.
Speaker 2: I don't know if I mentioned this to you, but I
Speaker 2: think I said it during the halftime show that King's game.
Speaker 2: Sixers took one to three in that entire games in
Speaker 2: two thousand and three, and now the Celtics average fifty
Speaker 2: a game. But yeah, the good effort I mean, especially
Speaker 2: from those guys, but from the Sixers team overall without
Speaker 2: eight players. Any final thoughts heading into New York.
Speaker 1: Well, just like forget the Knicks for a second, but
Speaker 1: like justin like Coach was saying, I'd like to see
Speaker 1: him more. And then as goes the NBA season, like
Speaker 1: it eventually guys play right, I mean, because of all injuries,
Speaker 1: any number of reasons. And it's got to be a
Speaker 1: huge confidence boost for him because I gotta I gotta
Speaker 1: tell you, like even in training camp and like the
Speaker 1: primary part of his game is shooting. But eventually his
Speaker 1: coach said, you got to be able to guard, and
Speaker 1: he's proven that he could do that. Coach just louded
Speaker 1: him for that. But even in the Bahamas, he didn't
Speaker 1: he didn't shoot the ball well. And then like just
Speaker 1: two three weeks ago, coach Nurse was saying he didn't
Speaker 1: know what he was. And for a coach to say
Speaker 1: that about his own player, that's you know, it sounds
Speaker 1: like that's not well. He hadn't played enough, he wasn't sure,
Speaker 1: he wouldn't been able to define him. Now he has
Speaker 1: and he's beginning to, you know, check some boxes. And
Speaker 1: then you know, for a young player, the big part
Speaker 1: is can you be trusted in a big game, And
Speaker 1: he's starting to prove that. You know, for spot minutes,
Speaker 1: he might be all up to come out there and
Speaker 1: make a shot.
Speaker 2: He had a game for Kentucky last year against Alabama,
Speaker 2: who went to the Final four. He went he had
Speaker 2: twenty eight points. He went ten for ten from the field,
Speaker 2: four for four from three. I think his only miss
Speaker 2: was one of his handful of free throws. So he's
Speaker 2: not afraid of the moment. I mean, one of the
Speaker 2: best players in high school on the circuit, one of
Speaker 2: the top ranked players. And the Sixers, they they knew,
Speaker 2: they scouted him for the draft. They were excited to
Speaker 2: get him right after the draft undrafted, but they wanted
Speaker 2: to see what he could do lately after honing his
Speaker 2: skills with the Blue Coats.
Speaker 1: Yeah to you say, not afraid, like I love that
Speaker 1: about players, Like they just they hoop right like. But
Speaker 1: on the other hand, there was a couple of drives
Speaker 1: where he had shay whoop. Yeah, ranked it a rim
Speaker 1: but no, but like you know, obviously he's one of
Speaker 1: the best players in the NBA. It's so good and
Speaker 1: he was, I mean, he made it look so easy,
Speaker 1: right sgat. Let's be on. That's they jumped out with
Speaker 1: thirty seven points in the open quoter. He was ten
Speaker 1: for ten before he missed. That's party. They let their
Speaker 1: guyard down a little bit right.
Speaker 2: Half as many free throws for him as the last game,
Speaker 2: but he controls the pace of the game so well.
Speaker 2: Some of those were and ones. He goes seven for eighty,
Speaker 2: gets a game high thirty two points. It's not always
Speaker 2: like three point shooting, obviously, JAM but although he's doing
Speaker 2: better in that era, again.
Speaker 1: He's an elite, world class player. He's like I said,
Speaker 1: he's right there for MVP was the runner up a
Speaker 1: year ago. But he's like MAXI. He's first one in,
Speaker 1: last one out. He puts in so much work and
Speaker 1: when you couple that with an unsatiable you know, drive
Speaker 1: and competitives, you you get one of the best most
Speaker 1: talented players in the league. And they're a remarkable story.
Speaker 1: And they still have a war chest of draft picks,
Speaker 1: including if I'm not mistaken, thus Sixers pick this year, right,
Speaker 1: it's the Sixers.
Speaker 2: It's the Thunders pick unless it's in the top six, Okay,
Speaker 2: and then it would be the Sixers pick. Sixteen point
Speaker 2: loss for the Sixers at home to the Oklahoma City
Speaker 2: Thunder who are a league a Western Conference best thirty
Speaker 2: three and six. Matt Murphy and Tom McGinness here on
Speaker 2: our Parks Casino postgame show. Hartin's dine a big second half,
Speaker 2: rebounding eleven out of his sixteen boards with nine points tonight.
Speaker 2: He's a former New York Nick. Now the Knicks are
Speaker 2: coming here tomorrow night. They had a big win over
Speaker 2: Milwaukee and then lost the second end of the back
Speaker 2: to back too and upstart Detroit Pistons team yesterday. But
Speaker 2: we know what the Knicks are about. They they don't
Speaker 2: have a ton of depth, but their starting lineup is incredible.
Speaker 2: Karl Anthony Towns is the reigning Eastern Conference Player of
Speaker 2: the Month. Bruntson the head of the snake, as they say,
Speaker 2: and Bridges coming off rebounded well from a couple rough
Speaker 2: shooting games.
Speaker 3: We got a great year though.
Speaker 2: Yeah against this Okay s team, he had an nine
Speaker 2: over seven from three games.
Speaker 1: Before that incredible stretch. They're you know, like the playoffs
Speaker 1: were amazing, like for them, right, I mean nobody. I
Speaker 1: talked to Dante DiVincenzo in the preseas when the Sixers
Speaker 1: were in Iowa playing the or the Wolves, and you
Speaker 1: know that second game. They'll never forget that at the
Speaker 1: Garden and Hartenstein was a big part of that. But
Speaker 1: as you say, now they have towns. But what I
Speaker 1: remember too, first of all, they've already come in here
Speaker 1: and beat the Sixers this year. What I remember is
Speaker 1: last year, the first matchup was in January, and you know,
Speaker 1: you're thinking, oh, whatever it was. Then they go, this
Speaker 1: is the Sixers, and they came out and they played
Speaker 1: so hard and they were sprinting Plastic City. They dominated,
Speaker 1: and that I remember then talking to coach subsequently, and
Speaker 1: then they won the second game here and when we
Speaker 1: were in New York and I was talking to coach
Speaker 1: and we were doing our pregame and I was saying
Speaker 1: something whatever I said, like framing it like tonight a
Speaker 1: tough one against the Knicks, and like he knows more
Speaker 1: than anybody, He's like, yeah, like we better like he
Speaker 1: was talking about, we better get back. They sprinted by us.
Speaker 1: Like if that doesn't wake you up, that's how they
Speaker 1: play there. I mean, you know, you know under coach TIBs,
Speaker 1: they're going to play hard. So so hopefully the Sixers
Speaker 1: will have a couple more of those players, if not
Speaker 1: more than a couple in the game, that would be
Speaker 1: certainly beneficial. But another huge game. They're always key against
Speaker 1: the division rival it's going to be a tough one,
Speaker 1: to be sure. And that that's you know, the second
Speaker 1: nd of a back to back for the Sixers, but
Speaker 1: just against the Knicks. And now you know, it's not
Speaker 1: just Boston you got to get by. It's not just Cleveland.
Speaker 1: I mean the Sixers obviously in eleven. There's a lot
Speaker 1: of teams they gotta get by. But you're not going
Speaker 1: anywhere unless eventually you can beat New York. And that's
Speaker 1: here we go with a matchup tomorrow against them.
Speaker 2: And here we go looking at the injury report as well,
Speaker 2: right because then Bead's day to day with the foot sprain.
Speaker 2: He was listed as out for this one, but Maxi
Speaker 2: and Paul George were late ads to it. Max would
Speaker 2: say the handsprain from the Orlando game, and Paul George
Speaker 2: was right ankle soreness.
Speaker 1: And here comes Justin Edwards out and right before the
Speaker 1: game and coach and again he's being optimistic, but he
Speaker 1: said Joel is day to day and hopefully have a
Speaker 1: good day tomorrow and be able to play. So he
Speaker 1: didn't rule them out.
Speaker 2: So we shall see the New York Knicks here tomorrow night.
Speaker 2: Tonight A lost to the Thunder Tom Againnis, thank you
Speaker 2: as always, all right night Murph one eighteen one oh two.
Speaker 2: The final score SGA thirty two points for OKC, Jalen
Speaker 2: Williams with twenty four and Justin Edwards, who is back
Speaker 2: out on the court right now taking photos signing autographs
Speaker 2: with some young fans. The Philly native had a career
Speaker 2: high twenty five points to lead the Sixers. He shot
Speaker 2: nine of sixteen, four for nine from three, and three
Speaker 2: for four at the line. He had six rebounds and
Speaker 2: four assists along with his twenty five points. We'll have
Speaker 2: audio highlights of this game, stat of the game, box
Speaker 2: score breakdown from the Sixers and the Thunder. On the
Speaker 2: other side, the Sixers fall one eighteen one oh two.
Speaker 2: And this is the Parks Casino postgame show Sixers and
Speaker 2: the Thunder tonight in South Philadelphia. It's the front end
Speaker 2: of a back to back which brings the New York
Speaker 2: Knicks to town tomorrow night. The Thunder are the first
Speaker 2: place team in the West. They get another chance at Cleveland,
Speaker 2: the top team in the East, on Thursday at home
Speaker 2: after they wrapped up a four game road trip Tonight
Speaker 2: against a Sixers team that did not have its Big
Speaker 2: three of Embiid, Maxie and Paul George and did not
Speaker 2: have the services of five other players either, and that
Speaker 2: goes down the list of Andre Drummond, both Martin's, Kyle Lowry,
Speaker 2: Jared McCain. Of course, so Maxie and George were added
Speaker 2: to the injury report today and did not play in
Speaker 2: this game against Shay Gildess, Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Speaker 2: Matt Murphy back with you on the Parks Casino postgame
Speaker 2: show after this Sixers Thunder game. Let's hear how it
Speaker 2: sounded as called by Tom McGinnis. All the key plays
Speaker 2: in this one and of course the end result. Sixers
Speaker 2: Thunder in Philly. The Sixers in blue uniforms the Thunder
Speaker 2: in orange. Sixers use their twenty fourth different starting lineup.
Speaker 2: They were facing a Thunder team without Chet Holmgren, Aj
Speaker 2: Mitchell and their first round pick number twelve over yall
Speaker 2: Nicola number twelve overall, I should say Nicola Topiic Sixers
Speaker 2: started Reggie Jackson, Eric Gordon, Kelly Oubrey, Junior gershaon Yabusele,
Speaker 2: and Ricky Council, the fourth who made his first career
Speaker 2: NBA start against this Oklahoma City defense, which is the
Speaker 2: top ranked defense in the NBA. Alan Iverson was in
Speaker 2: attendance along the right baseline and council in his first
Speaker 2: start as in the NBA with an and one on
Speaker 2: that side of the floor.
Speaker 1: In the lelank Hearts team. But yaboo good to hand
Speaker 1: on that ubre steals it. Six is going left to right,
Speaker 1: Ricky Council in the lelane. Rimy good and he's foul.
Speaker 1: Kind of threw that up over his shoulder after they
Speaker 1: made the foul call, and he's gonna go to the
Speaker 1: line for which could be a three point played, a
Speaker 1: chance for the Sixers to pull them within one.
Speaker 2: Ten to nine game Oklahoma City Council in thirty five
Speaker 2: minutes and twenty three seconds had thirteen points, four rebounds,
Speaker 2: four assists on five of fifteen shooting, took eight threes,
Speaker 2: making one, and he went two for three at the line.
Speaker 2: Now soon after shake Gildess Alexander who's second in the
Speaker 2: or third in the NBA and steals per game, coming
Speaker 2: in at two a game behind Tyrese Maxy, who among
Speaker 2: eligible players is second two point one. Paul George's fourth
Speaker 2: at one point nine steals per game. These are two
Speaker 2: of the best at that. They're the two best at
Speaker 2: forcing turnovers. The Thunder average the most steals as a team.
Speaker 2: He had a steal to Jalen Williams got it back
Speaker 2: for a twenty nine to eleven lead, and then after
Speaker 2: a missed three by Williams, Shake Gildess Alexander second chance
Speaker 2: three gives the Thunder, who never trailed in the game,
Speaker 2: the largest lead of the night.
Speaker 1: Jalen Williams too hard with a three attempt, Paul Lucy
Speaker 1: George gets it to thunder Or to get back on
Speaker 1: d but Gilgess Alexander comes back and nails a triple
Speaker 1: and the Sixers hearing it a little bit from the crowd,
Speaker 1: the nurse is gonna take a time out.
Speaker 2: It was thirty two to eleven. That was on a
Speaker 2: twenty two to two run for the Thunder, who took
Speaker 2: a thirty seven to twenty one lead into the second
Speaker 2: quarter in Philly. Justin Edwards, though, had a quick nine
Speaker 2: points off the bench in this game, and here's how
Speaker 2: he got there.
Speaker 1: Alex Caruso for three. No good at Damn Bona with
Speaker 1: a rebound. I'll let Justin Edwards. Here's Edwards down l
Speaker 1: l ain't up in good nifty move timeout thunder nine
Speaker 1: fifty three to go in the first half. That makes
Speaker 1: it a forty two to twenty seven game, and Justin
Speaker 1: Edwards leads the Sixers with nine points.
Speaker 2: He made nine field goals overall at the by the
Speaker 2: end of the night, nine for sixteen for Edwards, four
Speaker 2: for nine from three, three for four from the line.
Speaker 2: We'll hear more from him on his career night of
Speaker 2: twenty five points. Right after that, Gershan Yambusele made it
Speaker 2: a twelve point game with a three. Eric Gordon made
Speaker 2: it a nine point game with a three, but Oklahoma
Speaker 2: City pushed out in front again. And that steal connection
Speaker 2: of Shake Gildess Alexander that I was talking about defense
Speaker 2: leading to offense for the thunder, Well that happened right
Speaker 2: before the halftime buzzer.
Speaker 1: Oh, Gildes Alexander steals it. He's got two seconds, he
Speaker 1: cruises it and duncts it with point three. So they
Speaker 1: steal it and score it, and it's now halftime as
Speaker 1: the Sixers are down fifteen fifty eight.
Speaker 2: To forty three. Gildas Alexander didn't miss a shot in
Speaker 2: the first half, eight for eight, made his only three
Speaker 2: missed one free throw, two for three, nineteen points in
Speaker 2: the first half in seventeen minutes for Shake Gildess Alexander
Speaker 2: Thunder fifty eight six Ers forty three, and in the
Speaker 2: third quarter, the Sixers gave up the first four points
Speaker 2: of the third and there was a quick time out
Speaker 2: from Nick Nurse, which also included Justin Edwards coming back
Speaker 2: into the game. Kelly Oubre Junior had a basket that
Speaker 2: was followed up by and Isaiah Hartenstein offensive foul and Edwards,
Speaker 2: freshly back into the game, tease it up for what
Speaker 2: was a new career high.
Speaker 1: Edwards for three and that's good. He is now six
Speaker 1: and eight in the game is second three. He's seen
Speaker 1: some sparks, but tonight Justin Edwards turning that opportunity into
Speaker 1: a flame, as he's got a career high fourteen his career.
Speaker 2: I was eleven in that Brooklyn game on the road
Speaker 2: where he made three threes. He made four tonight. He's
Speaker 2: averaging about twenty points per game in the G League
Speaker 2: with the Delaware Blue Coats. The Sixers affiliate sixty three
Speaker 2: forty eight OKC with the lead and they would cut
Speaker 2: it the Sixers would cut it back to eleven later
Speaker 2: in the quarter courtesy of another two way contract player
Speaker 2: where you can play with the Sixers and the Blue
Speaker 2: Coats up to fifty NBA games in a season. You
Speaker 2: can do that on a two way contract. Jeff Dalton
Speaker 2: Junior and Justin Edwards plus Pete Nance again are those
Speaker 2: players for the Sixers. All played in the game tonight,
Speaker 2: and Dalton Junior, who had a career night. His three
Speaker 2: gets the Sixers within eleven.
Speaker 1: Tied remy no rebound Yabusele. Two Thunder team members go
Speaker 1: down y'a bucele from the corner, oh Rickey council with
Speaker 1: a second offer offensive rebound, house of doubt, and he
Speaker 1: made it and the Crown loves it. And with that
Speaker 1: the Sixers cut it to eleven.
Speaker 2: Seventy eight to sixty seven. That was answered by a
Speaker 2: shay and one. Jeff Dalton Junior from Upper Marlborough, Maryland,
Speaker 2: grew up idolizing Iverson who was watching from the base line,
Speaker 2: and Dalton would go to Wizards games anytime Iverson was
Speaker 2: playing there with the Sixers his previous NBA career high.
Speaker 2: He's played for five different NBA teams, including with the
Speaker 2: Raptors and Nick Nurse was twelve points and tonight eighteen
Speaker 2: for Jeff Dalton Junior twelve. In this second half, it
Speaker 2: was seventy eight sixty seven. The Sixers trailed after his three,
Speaker 2: but again Sga with an and one. But at the
Speaker 2: end of the third is where things got really interesting,
Speaker 2: because the Sixers ended it on a fourteen to four
Speaker 2: run and Gershon Yabusele was at the center of it all.
Speaker 1: He has it outside right now a Gershan Yabusele drives it,
Speaker 1: cups it down the lane. Nothing good, what a rucket move.
Speaker 1: Sixers trying to get back on d They've made it
Speaker 1: an eight point game and they steal it. Doubt Junior
Speaker 1: for three Ruby no Gershan reers. He put it at
Speaker 1: the buzzer. What a play, Yabouselee with two straight hoops
Speaker 1: he scored it. The Sixers stole it. Jeff Doubt Junior
Speaker 1: got a three he missed, and yabusel putting it in
Speaker 1: to make it a six point game. He scored it
Speaker 1: with under a second to go.
Speaker 2: In the third, seventeen points for Yabu. It was a
Speaker 2: six point game heading to the fourth. After a thirty
Speaker 2: eight twenty nine third quarter that favored the Sixers, Yabusele
Speaker 2: coming up big at the end without eight players in
Speaker 2: this game, it was eighty seven eighty one Thunder going
Speaker 2: to the fourth quarter. Sixers would use a timeout in
Speaker 2: the fourth when it was a double digit game again
Speaker 2: at ninety seven eighty seven, but the Thunder came out
