Speaker 1: This is seventy Sixers. Rewind time now to listen back
Speaker 1: to postgame reaction from the team's most recent game. He's
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia seventy Sixers postgame Show. It be swats it
Speaker 1: on the glass and seventh flu Damn he rows and
Speaker 1: Dad over to JJ. Three balls, good running crops. The
Speaker 1: Sixers postgame Show right now on ninety seven five The
Speaker 1: Fanatic seventy Sixers trumps the Washington Wizards one twenty three
Speaker 1: to ninety eight. Brian Seltzer with you Dan here at
Speaker 1: the center. Let's joined in progress. Brett Brown the defensively
Speaker 1: Ben was I'll a bell ring it tonight, And for me,
Speaker 1: he was that because I thought he was his on
Speaker 1: ball defense, his off ball defense, his length, playing behind
Speaker 1: plays in those eyes that where we were speaking about beforehand,
Speaker 1: you know, the back of a pick and roll stuff.
Speaker 1: I thought he was excellent. So that's what it is.
Speaker 1: It's it's a bonding of defensive brothers. The head band
Speaker 1: was just a matter. You felt a little more confidence,
Speaker 1: and I arrested with Joel advantage, you know, and like
Speaker 1: when you get into that situation, because we've all remembered
Speaker 1: being up a lot and all of a sudden you know,
Speaker 1: you blink and we've had to bring people back in
Speaker 1: and so like we're all geniuses when you know you're
Speaker 1: looking at the school board, look you know why. I
Speaker 1: get it. I feel the same way too. I do.
Speaker 1: But I've also been sitting on that chair where I've
Speaker 1: seen leads evaporate, and I felt that that I felt
Speaker 1: like we were in a good place. I thought that
Speaker 1: group that came in on the bench was you could
Speaker 1: just feel that they they were had a rhythm that
Speaker 1: that I didn't think they were going to let a
Speaker 1: lead slip. I got most nervous when you look down
Speaker 1: at you we have so many injuries. You really have
Speaker 1: kind of six people that I had to spin around
Speaker 1: and incrementally use my timeouts in my mind, like every
Speaker 1: three minutes, just so I could, you know, keep them
Speaker 1: fresh and have group on the floor but resting guys
Speaker 1: during the time frame that I did. I love being
Speaker 1: able to do that. What happened with I know it
Speaker 1: wasn't It was just a knee on a thigh, which
Speaker 1: is a good thing. It was no you know, knee
Speaker 1: on knee. It was no ham string. It was just
Speaker 1: a normal knee to a thigh seventy Sixers head coach
Speaker 1: Brett Brown, and some thoughts following tonight's win one twenty
Speaker 1: three ninety eight over the Washington Wizards. As Tom McGinnis
Speaker 1: said during the broadcast, first time since March of two
Speaker 1: thousand and eight that the seventy six Ers have won
Speaker 1: consecutive games by at least twenty five points. Tonight, the
Speaker 1: margin was an even twenty five on a Wednesday. The
Speaker 1: win over the Knicks came by twenty six flat out
Speaker 1: domination by the seventy Sixers, and for a team that
Speaker 1: really had to fight and earn its success the first
Speaker 1: five weeks of the season, these last two games it
Speaker 1: has been a good, welcomed look. The seventy Sixers were
Speaker 1: able to get off to a terrific start with Joel
Speaker 1: and be leaving the way as the Sixers commanded a
Speaker 1: rebounding advantage early on. They dominated the Wizards in the
Speaker 1: paint on both ends of the court. Washington without Dwight Howard,
Speaker 1: a three time Defensive Player of the Year in a
Speaker 1: big body veteran, and the Sixers went on the attack.
Speaker 1: We may have, if I am not mistaken, we may
Speaker 1: have Joel and beat up at the podium. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: try and listen to my ear and see if we
Speaker 1: have that perhaps in a moment at this point we
Speaker 1: do not. But Joel was so huge and getting the
Speaker 1: Sixers off to a good start in tonight's game. They
Speaker 1: only needed did the Sixers twenty two minutes from the
Speaker 1: big man. He finished with sixteen points, fifteen rebounds, and
Speaker 1: he had his league leading twenty second double double of
Speaker 1: the year three minutes in to tonight's second quarter. Pretty
Speaker 1: good stuff. Rounding out the rest of the balance box
Speaker 1: sheet for the Sixers fourteen points from JJ Reddick thirteen
Speaker 1: and ten to go along with thirteen points, ten assists
Speaker 1: and eight rebounds from Ben sim eleven four Jimmy Butler,
Speaker 1: twelve for Landry Shammon and Mike Muscala. T J McConnell
Speaker 1: awesome off the bench with fifteen, and fur Con Corkmas
Speaker 1: finished with thirteen seventy. Six Ers now have sixteen wins
Speaker 1: on the season against eight losses. Sixteen wins second most
Speaker 1: in the NBA behind the nineteen win Toronto Raptors. The
Speaker 1: Wizards with the loss are eight and fourteen on the season.
Speaker 1: We'll step aside real quick come back with Tom McGinnis.

Speaker 1: the Washington Wizards by the final of one twenty three
Speaker 1: to ninety eight well rounded box sheet, eight different players
Speaker 1: in double figures. No seventy six Ers starter played more
Speaker 1: than twenty five and a half minutes in tonight game,
Speaker 1: Brett Brown calling them all off with about four minutes
Speaker 1: ago in a third quarter in which the Sixers at
Speaker 1: that point led by twenty eight points. They went on
Speaker 1: to lead by as many as thirty five. And what
Speaker 1: we've seen from the Sixers is a team playing at
Speaker 1: home the last two times out against the Knicks Wednesday
Speaker 1: and tonight against the Washington Wizards, against teams that were
Speaker 1: arguably inferior in talents and perhaps competing with not the
Speaker 1: quite the same set of purpose the seventy Sixers are
Speaker 1: right now, Sixers came out and flat out bulldozed them,
Speaker 1: and they had a pair of twenty five plus point
Speaker 1: wins to show for it. Tom mcguinnis had the call
Speaker 1: tonight's game. I mean, I thought, more so than Wednesday's
Speaker 1: game time, this one was you could tell early on
Speaker 1: very much in the Sixers wheelhouse. Brian, I'm about to
Speaker 1: tear into something you just said. Go on, seriously, the
Speaker 1: different sense of purpose. This is in April tenth, this
Speaker 1: is November thirtieth, Washington, different sense of purpose. The season
Speaker 1: still you know what I mean a quarter of the
Speaker 1: way through. But you're right, that's how they played. That
Speaker 1: is I mean, come on, that's unbelievable. And like I said,
Speaker 1: something might have to give. I didn't want to make
Speaker 1: this about the Wizards, but that they did not play
Speaker 1: with any urgency at all. They did not compete at
Speaker 1: a level that they are capable of competing. That for
Speaker 1: the Sixers, you know, they had a lot, like you say,
Speaker 1: they dominated the rebound, but they didn't finish a lot
Speaker 1: of those rebounds. So my point with the Sixers is
Speaker 1: they could have played a lot better and they dominated
Speaker 1: the game, and that to me, that's a good thing
Speaker 1: in the locker room. Like you know, as a coaching
Speaker 1: staff and as players, they know that this was an
Speaker 1: easy game, but that they had so much more to give,
Speaker 1: and then they could have played a lot better. In
Speaker 1: other words, Joel missed some free throws. They you know,
Speaker 1: like I said, they missed a lot of Wilson Chandler
Speaker 1: didn't have a particularly good game, and yet they dominated
Speaker 1: the game. And then you know, Brett Brown told us
Speaker 1: ten days ago or so that they were possibly looking
Speaker 1: at a game to try to sit Joel. But if
Speaker 1: he only has to play twenty two or I don't
Speaker 1: know what he played against the Knicks, but it definitely
Speaker 1: wasn't thirty eight minutes, and he obviously doesn't want to
Speaker 1: sit out. I think he just bought yourself some time
Speaker 1: with these last two games, and certainly with the time
Speaker 1: around the games where he gets treatment. For the most part,
Speaker 1: you know, you're working through this homestand and again I
Speaker 1: think it's going to be a little more difficult against
Speaker 1: Memphis on Sunday, but you know, it's a rare thing
Speaker 1: to be able to kind of relax a little bit.
Speaker 1: And we talked about the rhythm of a season and
Speaker 1: to be able to come home and have two easy
Speaker 1: games like this some practice time. You get ready over
Speaker 1: the weekend and take on Memphis and try to finish
Speaker 1: out this homestand before going out for two big road
Speaker 1: games next week. Seventy six Ers over the Washington Wizards
Speaker 1: won twenty three to ninety eight. Well, it's been really
Speaker 1: nice seeing Tom these last two games, and the Sixers
Speaker 1: have had an opportunity to not only build up leads,
Speaker 1: but get into a really nice rhythm where it seems
Speaker 1: like no one, despite the individual talent on this team,
Speaker 1: trying to impose or interject himself. There's just been a
Speaker 1: great flow opportunities coming to individual players and they've made
Speaker 1: the most of them. No good point because the Sixers
Speaker 1: have obviously given up big leads in the past, so
Speaker 1: now they're protecting them. And what you're saying too with
Speaker 1: the second unit, they're trying to implement the same style.
Speaker 1: We watched some of the same actions with the Mascala
Speaker 1: and Shammont that Joel and JJ Reddick employee, and Shammont
Speaker 1: played well. I thought Mascala missed a lot of shots
Speaker 1: early but played well. TJ brought the fight, I mean
Speaker 1: TJ and the gut to the game was really good,
Speaker 1: playing with a lot of energy and played well. I mean,
Speaker 1: certainly had a couple of moments there were set the
Speaker 1: Ronsky maybe and certainly John wall too got the best.
Speaker 1: But it sounds like we may have been beat at
Speaker 1: the podium at the press cap. Let's hear the big ball.
Speaker 1: It gives me a lot of us uh and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, and I don't have to take a game
Speaker 1: off iteats minutes restrictions right, Uh, yeah, for sure. I
Speaker 1: hate made restrictions impressive. I mean, back to back games,
Speaker 1: it's been like that when you guys in the fourth world.
Speaker 1: It's good. We picked up our intensity defensively, I think
Speaker 1: we've been much better at that on that and and
Speaker 1: then offensive we'll just be moving the ball, uh and
Speaker 1: then it's walking pretty well. It wasn't like to see
Speaker 1: your father get that shout out, and then that's the animulations. Brother,
Speaker 1: it's great. You know, like I said, Philly Philly fans,
Speaker 1: that's so passionate, and I show a lot of love.
Speaker 1: And you know, every time my mom and my dad
Speaker 1: is at the game, they always show them a lot
Speaker 1: of love. So I really appreciated that. You know, we
Speaker 1: tired today from the army. That's a big accomplishment. And
Speaker 1: then yesterday was was his birthday. So I really appreciate it.
Speaker 1: The love you go, all right, some great insights from
Speaker 1: Joel Embiid after tonight's win one twenty three ninety eight
Speaker 1: of the Wizard's sixteen points fifteen boards for Joel his
Speaker 1: NBA best twenty second double double. And that was a
Speaker 1: cool sidebar story time from tonight's game. They say it's
Speaker 1: a family right, and he literally had his family here.
Speaker 1: Think about that. To end a long career in the
Speaker 1: military and to be seated courtside where your stunt, your
Speaker 1: son is a major sports celebrity in a sports market
Speaker 1: like Philadelphia, that that's pretty nice. I spoke to him
Speaker 1: prior to the game. He's a very nice man. I
Speaker 1: met him last year in London when the Sixers. We
Speaker 1: were over there and no Joel play. Well, that's the
Speaker 1: exact same point I was just making as he started
Speaker 1: his press conference in his comments at least the ones
Speaker 1: that we were able to air about not having to
Speaker 1: sit out a game, and then the reporter talked about
Speaker 1: minutes restrictions. Was certainly was part of his first year
Speaker 1: or two in the NBA, and tonight his minutes restricted
Speaker 1: because the Sixers blew out the Washington Wizards, and that's
Speaker 1: a good thing. Like I said, my overall point is,
Speaker 1: there's certainly some some things to work on, but when
Speaker 1: you're winning the by these margins and you're able to,
Speaker 1: you know, grow together and develop, as Prett Brown is
Speaker 1: seeking for his team to improve and get better and
Speaker 1: obviously get more assimilated with Jimmy Butler or vice versa.
Speaker 1: All good and a big game against Memphis. They let
Speaker 1: one get away a little bit down there. Not too
Speaker 1: long ago. I believe it was two or three years ago.
Speaker 1: Mike Conley and the Grizzlies came from twenty some odd
Speaker 1: down to beat the Sixers here. So they have some
Speaker 1: young talent. They're obviously struggling just a bit right now
Speaker 1: with three straight losses. Speaking of Memphis, but another great
Speaker 1: test as the Sixers look to improve on what is
Speaker 1: the league's best home court advantage. Someone ironic timing that
Speaker 1: the last time the Sixers in Memphis played back on
Speaker 1: the tenth of November, it was just days before Jimmy
Speaker 1: Butler alive. The Sixers only had nine players available that night,
Speaker 1: and here the team is now with the record of
Speaker 1: seven and two with Butler and the fold. Pretty impressive
Speaker 1: and encouraging stuff. Absolutely Tom talked to you on Sunday.
Speaker 1: Good have a good weekend. Seventy Sixers beat the Washington
Speaker 1: Wizards convincingly one twenty three ninety eight. Will hear some
Speaker 1: highlight calls coming up in just a moment and maybe
Speaker 1: just perhaps some more from the players involved in tonight's game.

Speaker 1: Revolution today seventy Sixers and Washington Wizards for the first
Speaker 1: of three meetings a season. Sixers looking to build off
Speaker 1: of Wednesday's dominant performance against the New York Knicks, and
Speaker 1: early on there were indications and that could be something.
Speaker 1: The Sixers were in line four it tonight. Joel Embiid
Speaker 1: was off to a very strong start, as with the
Speaker 1: rest of his Sixers. He was doing a little work
Speaker 1: inside and also out Simmons a crossbid court between his
Speaker 1: legs to juelle three ball, buy a beach shot near,
Speaker 1: got it smooth plant. The two stars combine and Scott
Speaker 1: Brooks Hall's time out for the whiz that capped off
Speaker 1: a stretch of eight in a row from joellenbad and
Speaker 1: the Sixers led thirteen to seven. Ben Simmons, his running mate,
Speaker 1: added the momentum. They go to Morris driving on Mscotta,
Speaker 1: pull up fifteen footer, rimming around and out no good.
Speaker 1: Simmons and t J McConnell secure the rebound. Here's Jimmy
Speaker 1: Butler down't on, want to catch and a score on
Speaker 1: Austin Rivers and you know what, Jimmy Butler did too.
Speaker 1: That made it twenty five to fourteen and favored the Sixers.
Speaker 1: Delayed thirty one to nineteen after twelve minutes to play.
Speaker 1: The Sixers with the Wizard's absent Dwight Howard in tonight's game,
Speaker 1: and having a somewhat smaller, youngish front court, they went
Speaker 1: on the attack. They scored with will inside and rebounded ferociously,
Speaker 1: and as a result they were up twelve, holding the
Speaker 1: Wizards to nineteen in the first twelve minutes of play.
Speaker 1: In the second quarter, more good things in the seventy Sixers,
Speaker 1: this time at Ben Simmons missed by Beale. I'll let Simmons.
Speaker 1: Wizards back with four defenders. Ben guarded by Green, takes
Speaker 1: him off the bounce, fakes it one way, comes back
Speaker 1: with a right hand jump hook up and good. He
Speaker 1: did it all by himself. Ben Simmons fakes on Jeff
Speaker 1: Green comes back and scores it another Wizard's time. Half
Speaker 1: fifty two to thirty nine, all Sixers butts. They would
Speaker 1: continue adding to their cushion as the first half went
Speaker 1: on Shamut to the corner for con three ball by
Speaker 1: cork Boss is good. Jeff Green on a close up,
Speaker 1: but cork Boss has got it going. Three ball by
Speaker 1: cork Moss, six three by the Sixers. Lead is twenty two,
Speaker 1: a fifty to two run. Sixers would go into the
Speaker 1: locker room with a sixty eight forty six lead, the
Speaker 1: fourth time this season the Sixers scored at least sixty
Speaker 1: eight points and a half of the third quarter of
Speaker 1: the Sixers. Yeah, their starters stayed out there for about
Speaker 1: let's say seven or eight minutes. TJ McConnell got some
Speaker 1: run and now here's t J McConnell hops stops. Shoot,
Speaker 1: that's cars bacconnell from fourteen. You better card him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but the Wizards day did not. TJ had a great
Speaker 1: game for the Sixers Tonight. Sixers were up ninety eight
Speaker 1: to seventy after three quarters. And it was TJ and
Speaker 1: some of the other backups and second stringers, you know, backups,
Speaker 1: that's not an appropriate term. They deserve something better than that.
Speaker 1: The reserves, the second stringers. They were able to see
Speaker 1: this one through to a dominant finish, built up the
Speaker 1: Biscana Biscona for three and that's good. Now in the
Speaker 1: modern NBA, I guess that's okay. But back in the
Speaker 1: day that would be called piling U and the Sixers.
Speaker 1: They would walk their way to the finish with a
Speaker 1: one twenty three ninety eight win, just totally in control
Speaker 1: against the Wizards down the stretch, all around complete game
Speaker 1: once again from the Sixers. Encouraging to see at this
Speaker 1: stage of the season. The Sixers have passed the quarter
Speaker 1: point of the new season and now getting into the
Speaker 1: month of December starting tomorrow, just the type of effort
Speaker 1: you want to see from a team looking to build
Speaker 1: and get to a higher point in the Eastern Conference race.
Speaker 1: And the Sixers now with sixteen wins, second most in
Speaker 1: the East behind the Toronto Raptors. Some final notes from
Speaker 1: the final stat sheet. Sixers shot just under forty four
Speaker 1: percent from the field. They were twelve or thirty eight
Speaker 1: from outside the arc. The Wizards shot forty percent overall,
Speaker 1: just eight of twenty eight from three point territory the
Speaker 1: six or twenty five and thirty three from the stripe.
Speaker 1: They outrebounded the Wizards by sixteen. They were plus nine
Speaker 1: on the offensive glass, kept the turnovers, down just twelve
Speaker 1: of the seventy sixers, while they scored twenty points off
Speaker 1: of sixteen turnovers committed by the Wizards. Eight different players
Speaker 1: in double figures for the seventy six ers. Two delivered
Speaker 1: double doubles. Joel Embiid with sixteen points and fifteen rebounds,
Speaker 1: not a single turnover, and a plus thirty rating for
Speaker 1: Joel in twenty two minutes. That is the twenty second
Speaker 1: double double of the year. For number twenty one Ben Simmons,
Speaker 1: it's double double number thirteen for him. He had thirteen
Speaker 1: points and ten assists to go with eight rebounds, and
Speaker 1: Simmons five of five from the field and three for
Speaker 1: three from the free throw line, a perfect night shooting
Speaker 1: for the raining rookie of the year sixteen bigger parton
Speaker 1: fourteen points for JJ Reddick, He was five to twelve overall,
Speaker 1: eleven for Jimmy Butler. Butler also with seven rebounds, four
Speaker 1: assistant four steals. He was plus nineteen for the Sixers.
Speaker 1: T J. McConnell with fifteen points, six to ten shooting
Speaker 1: thirteen for fur Con Cork Mose and a dozen apiece
Speaker 1: for Landry Shammitt and Mike Muscal the Sixers with fifty
Speaker 1: four points in the paint and a fourteen to six
Speaker 1: advantage on second chance points. They led by as many
Speaker 1: as thirty five in a game tonight dead featured just
Speaker 1: one lead change in one tie washed and jumped out
Speaker 1: to a four nothing lead. The Sixers changed that quickly
Speaker 1: with an eight nothing run and route to their third
Speaker 1: straight victory and another one here at home, number twelve
Speaker 1: overall at the Center once again. The Sixers record now
Speaker 1: stands at sixteen and eighth. The Washington Wizards fall to
Speaker 1: eight and fourteen. Next up for the seventy Sixers the
Speaker 1: finale of a so far successful three game homestand that'll
Speaker 1: be Sunday at six o'clock against the Memphis Grizzlies. Sixers
Speaker 1: looking to split the season series. That game starts at
Speaker 1: six o'clock, so we'll have pregame coverage underway on some
Speaker 1: of our Sixers rad network affiliates at five fifty Divine

Speaker 1: Eye buy Perkott, corkmas Percott, thank you, congratulations And at
Speaker 1: a point in the in the late third, early four,
Speaker 1: I was saying you were dominating the game. You played well.
Speaker 1: You have to feel solid about your contribution tonight. Focus,
Speaker 1: you know, if you want to rein a jam at
Speaker 1: home on the road too, you know, if you want
Speaker 1: to keep reading. I think both all the team I've defined,
Speaker 1: you know, Jimmy, Jamion, Dostr Kamien see, we are any
Speaker 1: years to teach I tame by, but I think you're
Speaker 1: really probably good since your defense tonight, just like the
Speaker 1: Washington game overall, the Ticking defense is really solid against
Speaker 1: the Wizards. I mean every time I've put some goals
Speaker 1: to myself, you know, to see how my goal was,
Speaker 1: uh getting some official minutes, and then to play difference,
Speaker 1: you know, to show the give. I sha't play difference.
Speaker 1: I'm really have fair about it, you know, because the
Speaker 1: offensive did. Everybody knows what I can do. I just
Speaker 1: decided to go burkon. Thank you, congratulations. We appreciate your time.
Speaker 1: Thank you, you've been listening to seventy sixers rewind. Be
Speaker 1: sure not to miss new episodes the day after each
