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 beat Swatson on
Speaker 1: the glass and seventh flop damn heat rozen down over
Speaker 1: to JJ three ball. It's good running crops at home
Speaker 1: the Sixers postgame show right now on ninety seven five
Speaker 1: the Fanatic before the official arrival of Jimmy Butler. There
Speaker 1: was a win tonight in Miami, Florida. The seventy Sixers
Speaker 1: pull away from the Miami Heat down the stretch. They
Speaker 1: get a really nice victory at American Airlines Arena by
Speaker 1: the final of one twenty four to one fourteen. Brian
Speaker 1: Seltzer with you on a momentous day for these seventy
Speaker 1: Sixers franchise from Sixers dot Com. Sixers making the trade
Speaker 1: for Jimmy Butler official earlier this afternoon. He's going to
Speaker 1: be introduced at a press conference in Camden at the
Speaker 1: Sixers training complex tomorrow starting at eleven in the morning.
Speaker 1: Then the plane is frohim to join the Sixers in
Speaker 1: Orlando for a Wednesday's road trip finale. But amidst all
Speaker 1: that excitement and understandable really enthusiastic, momentous reaction to the
Speaker 1: news there was a game to be played tonight, and
Speaker 1: the Sixers went out and got business done. It seemed
Speaker 1: like a very entertaining, high energy, up and down game,
Speaker 1: high scoring affair Sixers in the heats they scrapped and
Speaker 1: fought hard in their five game opening round playoff series
Speaker 1: last year. It seemed like this game had some of
Speaker 1: that same spirit, even if some of the personnel and
Speaker 1: cast for both clubs were a little bit different. But
Speaker 1: to the Sixers credit, they went on and eleven to
Speaker 1: two run after Miami closed within four points late in
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. Ben Simmons, who was picking and choosing
Speaker 1: the spots at least to me it seemed like for
Speaker 1: most of the game, really sees the moment and threw
Speaker 1: down a couple of big jams during that putaway run
Speaker 1: and the Sixers pulled away one, two, one, fourteen. But
Speaker 1: the conversation with this game begins with two players in particular,
Speaker 1: Joel Embi thirty five points, eighteen rebounds, three assists and
Speaker 1: only two turnovers, and also JJ Reddick. Reddick was vintage
Speaker 1: form Tonight twenty five points three three pointers, eleven of
Speaker 1: twenty from the field, just making so many difficult contestant
Speaker 1: shots on the move look routine and easy. That's what
Speaker 1: he does and he keeps on doing it. Joel and
Speaker 1: JJ combining for sixty of the six ers one hundred
Speaker 1: twenty four points. The bench with some really good play,
Speaker 1: namely furcon Quirkmise smelling opportunity. The reps in game are
Speaker 1: there right now for him, and he came out and
Speaker 1: he scored sixteen points, a personal best five of nine
Speaker 1: from the field. Also, though he played some pretty committed
Speaker 1: defense four rebounds, he came up with a few steals
Speaker 1: that led to transition buckets and then Mike muscle the
Speaker 1: moose man back with a mask thirteen points, eight rebounds,
Speaker 1: and he was a very helpful force in the front
Speaker 1: court for the seventy six Ers tonight, the force behind
Speaker 1: the mic game in game out the man Tom mc
Speaker 1: ginnis called tonight's win seventy six Ers now nine and six,
Speaker 1: and it was a matter of getting things done, Tom Tonight,
Speaker 1: with some rests. It seemed like the Sixers very spirited
Speaker 1: and energized, no doubt about it. And as Klick Brown
Speaker 1: was saying you needed against Miami. They are very good defensively,
Speaker 1: but the Sixers ended up shooting forty seven percent in
Speaker 1: the game and like we're able to maintain the lead
Speaker 1: and then when it mattered most pulled away and put
Speaker 1: the game away. So that was really key. And as
Speaker 1: you said, you know, several performances from multiple players down
Speaker 1: the bench. You're undermanned, as you mentioned pregame, you activate
Speaker 1: Demetrius Jackson and shake Milton, the guys from the from
Speaker 1: the G League. You're two way players just to have
Speaker 1: enough bodies, and Landry I thought played a lot better
Speaker 1: in terms of shooting at JJ was just brilliant to
Speaker 1: start the game, and so was Joel and across the board.
Speaker 1: Solid job by Ben and Loscala and Furkon with their
Speaker 1: best games maybe as Sixers. Yeah, let's talk about Furkon
Speaker 1: a little bit more. He saw some run against the
Speaker 1: Memphis Grizzlies and Saturdays overtime lost and started this three
Speaker 1: game road trip, and tonight he was out there, hair
Speaker 1: on fired type play from him, and it seems like
Speaker 1: he very much recognizes what this landscape is right now,
Speaker 1: and who knows when the opportunity can come around again
Speaker 1: for him, no doubt about it, you know, and as
Speaker 1: Brett Brown said, with the opportunity, you know that that's
Speaker 1: what happens with players like again, nobody I thought you're
Speaker 1: talking about Firkn right. I don't think anybody thought Landry
Speaker 1: would be in this position. And yet, you know, you
Speaker 1: start to gain some confidence. Obviously you're a good basketball
Speaker 1: player to get here, and then you know, you start
Speaker 1: to gain some confidence, you get that belief and you
Speaker 1: just continue to grow that and that turns in Sometimes
Speaker 1: guys take that and run with it for the rest
Speaker 1: of their careers. So you know, Furkon obviously, you know,
Speaker 1: attracted a lot of attention when the international play, and
Speaker 1: he can shoot, and that's something the Sixers need, you know,
Speaker 1: with spacing and the ability to knock down shots. Every
Speaker 1: team needs them. All right in time, well after tonight's game,
Speaker 1: the focus can fully shift to tomorrow eleven am press
Speaker 1: conference at Camden introducing Jimmy Butler. He'll fly down to
Speaker 1: Orlando and then should be out there Wednesday night at
Speaker 1: Amway Center against the Magic. You've had a chance to
Speaker 1: see him evolve over the course of his career. What
Speaker 1: are you most excited about what he can bring to
Speaker 1: this team. Right, Well, first a little program note I
Speaker 1: was mentioning it's going to be streaming on Sixers dot com.
Speaker 1: That's true, correct, that is true, Yes, sharing that with
Speaker 1: our listeners. So, like I said, you know in the
Speaker 1: cubicle at work, you kind of just fire up, and
Speaker 1: that's right. And well, I just think he's you know,
Speaker 1: look the Sixers and Beat is becoming that guy. And
Speaker 1: that is a guy you can throw it to and
Speaker 1: get you a basket down the stretch. That's how playoff
Speaker 1: games are. One. You know, you can have all these
Speaker 1: fast break points and play with pace and tempo, but
Speaker 1: in a playoff game, it comes down that a half
Speaker 1: court and thrown it to a guy who can make
Speaker 1: a play. And Jimmy Butler's that guy. He's done that.
Speaker 1: He's averaging twenty one points. He's averaged right around that
Speaker 1: his entire career. He's a shot maker. He's got the
Speaker 1: athletic ability to get off his own shot and uh
Speaker 1: and then you know people try to cover him. Then
Speaker 1: you got the options of Reddick and being and moving
Speaker 1: that ball around, getting a slashing Simmons to the basket
Speaker 1: and all like that. So I mean it's just over
Speaker 1: the summer, you know, the Sixers, there was so much
Speaker 1: hope for you know, signing this guy, potential training for
Speaker 1: that guy. Well they got a guy and he's Jimmy Butler,
Speaker 1: and it's it's in the it's in the fold. So
Speaker 1: all of this over the course of the years. You know,
Speaker 1: pat Riley in Miami, the president of the Heat, you know,
Speaker 1: like he talks about players and draft picks all all
Speaker 1: the front office people do. It doesn't sound the moral
Speaker 1: warm and fuzzy, but their chips, their assets in terms
Speaker 1: of being able to acquire other players. I mean again,
Speaker 1: you draft, you trade, and you know those are those
Speaker 1: are the ways you get players. And so, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: to get Jimmy Butler in a trade, you gave up
Speaker 1: two really likable starters and Dario and Covington, but you
Speaker 1: get one of the top fifteen players in the NBA
Speaker 1: in Jimmy Butler, and so it's gonna be exciting. It's
Speaker 1: gonna take a while for him to assimilate into what
Speaker 1: the Sixers do. But again, defensively, you know, the major
Speaker 1: tenant of defense is being able to guard your guy
Speaker 1: and being able to stay in front of him. You
Speaker 1: can learn schemes and whether you split a switch and
Speaker 1: all that double all that stuff. But the first part
Speaker 1: of defense is being able to guard. And he can guard.
Speaker 1: He's been a three time member, four times on the
Speaker 1: All Defensive squad and that's that's a pretty good thing
Speaker 1: right there. So it's it's very exciting. I mean it's
Speaker 1: and again it comes early enough in the season where
Speaker 1: the Sixers are gonna what is this tonight the fifteenth game,
Speaker 1: You're still going to be able to to work together
Speaker 1: and try to hit your stride. I mean, the whole
Speaker 1: season for the Sixers has been trying to find a
Speaker 1: rhythm and this will be a whole other thing. This
Speaker 1: is gonna start a new really in Orlando and from
Speaker 1: there on getting the new player and a key player
Speaker 1: like this. But it'll be interesting and I think fun
Speaker 1: to watch it evolved. You know, time. I've never talked
Speaker 1: to Jimmy Butler on a personal of it before, but
Speaker 1: I feel like you and he might be simpatico in
Speaker 1: some respects high motor, high energy guys. I think it'll
Speaker 1: be a good fit. I don't know. I think he's
Speaker 1: gonna be great for our franchise. That's for sure, it's
Speaker 1: going to be exciting man to have a you know,
Speaker 1: a star player like this and hopefully liked. Like Brett
Speaker 1: Brown said pregame, the Sixers can do a lot for
Speaker 1: him too. Jimmy Butler's never won a championship. His teams
Speaker 1: have made the playoffs and I believe six of his
Speaker 1: eight years, and now he comes to a team that
Speaker 1: has a chance to compete, you know, in the East
Speaker 1: and go forward, win series in advance. At this this
Speaker 1: is still the prime of his career. So boy, it's
Speaker 1: it's just going to be exciting to have that kind
Speaker 1: of caliber player. And again, you think about the Sixers.
Speaker 1: I was writing the Open in twenty five years biggest trade.
Speaker 1: But you think of the Moses Malone deal, you think
Speaker 1: of the Julius Irving deal, the Sixers. You know they
Speaker 1: Barkley was a build deal. Goal in the other way,
Speaker 1: They've had some blockbuster deals over the years, but not
Speaker 1: in the last twenty five thirty years. I might the
Speaker 1: Barkley deal might have been thirty years ago, right, I mean,
Speaker 1: you came up here. That's so unbelieval. How about Elton
Speaker 1: Gan Elton brand out of the gates. I think everybody's
Speaker 1: gonna be excited to see Jimmy Butler, but they're gonna
Speaker 1: be pretty excited to see Elton Brand tomorrow too. Now,
Speaker 1: I can't wait to hear what details might emerge tomorrow
Speaker 1: in that press conference about just how the long game
Speaker 1: was played out with these negotiations. Well, yeah, you read,
Speaker 1: you read some of these things. There are some backstories there.
Speaker 1: But that's the kind of thing that you know, I
Speaker 1: don't think an agent might mention that, but not. Eb
Speaker 1: doesn't want to talk about that stuff. You know, he's
Speaker 1: he's got the feather in his cap and that they
Speaker 1: acquired Jimmy Butler. But from what you hear, from what
Speaker 1: you read, they weren't over. They kind of let it
Speaker 1: play out a little bit. I mean, all these other teams,
Speaker 1: including Miami in them, Houston offering reportedly those picks and whatnot,
Speaker 1: and then to sit back and you know, those things
Speaker 1: go back and forth. There was a lot of people,
Speaker 1: a lot of parts, draft picks, whatnot. Josh Harris involves
Speaker 1: apparently based on your owners, right, Like that's like somebody
Speaker 1: asked the question of Elton Brand at the press conference.
Speaker 1: You know, well, when it comes down to really make
Speaker 1: a decision, who's gonna be like, well, look, these are
Speaker 1: multi million dollar contracts that potentially done. Of course, the
Speaker 1: owners are going to be involved. It's their franchise, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So you're seeing more and more
Speaker 1: of that over the course of time, understandably so with
Speaker 1: the high stakes involved for all of these teams. All right, Tom,
Speaker 1: Well it should be a very exciting Next. What is it?
Speaker 1: Forty eight hours leading up to Wednesday's game seven o'clock
Speaker 1: against the Orlando Magic, Jimmy Butler's anticipated and scheduled debut.
Speaker 1: Talk to you beforehand, Thank you, Brian, Good night. Seventy

Speaker 1: of the day was Jimmy Butler acquired by the seventy
Speaker 1: Sixers in a trade with the Minnesota Timberwolves, but there
Speaker 1: was still a game to be played at American Airlines
Speaker 1: Arena in Miami, Florida, site of last year's first round
Speaker 1: playoff series. Seventy sixers looking for some more success in
Speaker 1: that building. JJ Reddick, following an off day yesterday for
Speaker 1: the Sixers, came out firing. Reddick on one side. Moscona
Speaker 1: screens for Penn Simmons to a beer. Johnson to the
Speaker 1: right of the keynot bounces the Reddick JJ get it
Speaker 1: off with Tyler Johnson there and it's good man. He
Speaker 1: is so good at quickly getting that shot off JJ. Reddick.
Speaker 1: Now with nine with the Sixers in the opening quarter,
Speaker 1: it's a three point game twenty one eighteen. During that
Speaker 1: same stretch, Joel Embiid also very impactful. He sent the
Speaker 1: Sixers into the second quarter with a thirty two twenty
Speaker 1: six advantage. Now Miami went on a pretty sizable run.
Speaker 1: They scored fifteen consecutive points to take a eight point
Speaker 1: lead for the Sixers. Chipped and claude their way back.
Speaker 1: They got some help off the bench. Sixers down seven.
Speaker 1: With the ball, Reddick curls kick out furk on ball
Speaker 1: fake shoots it on Olymic and Olytic docs im down
Speaker 1: at the found in Miami. Clark Mos with a savvy
Speaker 1: move with the up baked side dribble to the corner
Speaker 1: and furkon Quark Mos will go to the line for
Speaker 1: what could be a four point play. From several qualities
Speaker 1: sequences involving Furkon Quark Mos In tonight's game, Sixers led
Speaker 1: sixty four sixty two at the break of very high
Speaker 1: scoring lots of offensive action filled first half. In the
Speaker 1: third quarter more from mister Reddick six to shoot, fols
Speaker 1: to play in guys cutting it off with Scott it
Speaker 1: Ddick got just paid away baseline. Jot is good, JJ
Speaker 1: Reddick just incredible. Ten field goals on sixteen tries and
Speaker 1: Ruddick with twenty three points. He was able to hit
Speaker 1: from the outside, but the two point long jumpers in
Speaker 1: tonight's game, they were splashing home for Reddick as well.
Speaker 1: That made an eighty five to seventy seven. Sixers led
Speaker 1: by six him the fourth ninety six two ninety the
Speaker 1: Miami heat as you would expect. No, they didn't have
Speaker 1: Dwayne Wade. They did get Grand Dragics back, but they're
Speaker 1: gonna fight. They're not gonna go away. The Sixers needed
Speaker 1: some for final punch and push to get across the
Speaker 1: finish line. In this one, five on o'clock, Simmons gipples
Speaker 1: away from the basket and hands off the Reddick. Reddick dribbles.
Speaker 1: Simmons is all but he touches a betch. Jam said
Speaker 1: they left the right baseline right hand jamb J J.
