Speaker 1: You're listening to rewind, they'll listen back on press conferences,
Speaker 1: highlights and analysis from the seventy sixers previous game. All
Speaker 1: heil a man named cork Mose Furkey from Turkey. Terrific
Speaker 1: again a huge reason in putting the seventy Sixers over
Speaker 1: the top for a second straight game. Sixers beat these
Speaker 1: Chicago Bulls one eighteen one eleven. Fur Con Cork mois,
Speaker 1: you cannot say enough about this guy. The last two games,
Speaker 1: seventy Sixers have needed someone to give them a shot
Speaker 1: in the arm, no question, and that has been Quark Mose.
Speaker 1: So nice to see him thriving in his role as
Speaker 1: a shooter off the bench, especially after some of the
Speaker 1: ups and downs he's been through in his three years
Speaker 1: as a pro. He has stepped up in the seventy
Speaker 1: Sixers have needed him in a big way and delivered.
Speaker 1: After scoring thirty four points for a career high in
Speaker 1: Friday's win over the Memphis Grizzlies, give fur Con cork
Speaker 1: Mose thirty tonight, twelve of seventeen from the field, six
Speaker 1: of eleven from three point territory. That's thirteen three pointers.
Speaker 1: The last two games. Furcon went off in the first quarter,
Speaker 1: vaulting the seventy Sixers out to a thirty eight twenty
Speaker 1: five lead after one quirkmas Newly scored half the seventy
Speaker 1: Sixers points in the first quarter of action. He scored
Speaker 1: seventeen of the seventy six ers thirty eight. The seventeen
Speaker 1: points he scored the most in a first quarter this
Speaker 1: season for any member or player on the seventy Sixers roster,
Speaker 1: and the seventeen points tied the highest scoring total in
Speaker 1: any quarter of any kind in any stage of the
Speaker 1: game for a Sixers this year. Josh Chrichinson in seventeen
Speaker 1: points in a game in January against the Indiana Pacers
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. But Furkon has just been absolutely massive,
Speaker 1: especially as this game went on tonight. The Bulls, they're
Speaker 1: a young team, but they fight, they compete. They outscored
Speaker 1: the Sixers by eight in the second quarter, actually ended
Speaker 1: up outscoring the seventy Sixers between the third quarters by thirteen,
Speaker 1: and that results in tonight's game being tied at eighty
Speaker 1: three points going into the fourth. There was one stretch
Speaker 1: where it looked like the Sixers might have had this
Speaker 1: game put away. If you were following the game closely,
Speaker 1: there was a run of five straight points by Tobias
Speaker 1: Harris that was followed up by a big stretch from
Speaker 1: Quark Mis between a three and a dunk. But then
Speaker 1: the Bulls battled back. The seventy Sixers, thanks for dwelling
Speaker 1: by three pointer, had enough to get by in the end.
Speaker 1: One day eighteen two, one eleven, the seventy Sixers went
Speaker 1: for their second straight game at the podium. Right now
Speaker 1: we joined in progress Rett Brown feel way through whether
Speaker 1: posting him, whether keeping him on the perimeter or that
Speaker 1: that's still kind of a work in progress, or it is,
Speaker 1: but it's driven out of what the other team is doing.
Speaker 1: Like if teams sit in a zone, like you can
Speaker 1: find him in a high hole type thing. If teams
Speaker 1: are doubling him on every single catch, you get two choices.
Speaker 1: You can force feed it into him and let him
Speaker 1: quarter back the gym and sort of play four and
Speaker 1: three behind it, or you can pick him, pop him
Speaker 1: and not let him play in a congested area. And
Speaker 1: that decision, that kind of world is always for me
Speaker 1: driven out of like some gut feel. Is he turning
Speaker 1: it over? Like does he look comfortable? How is his
Speaker 1: left hand. You know, are we just putting him in
Speaker 1: a bad position where I can because he's versatile enough
Speaker 1: to do a bunch of things where I can make
Speaker 1: his life a little bit cleaner, picking and popping as
Speaker 1: an example. But it's driven, you know, mostly on how
Speaker 1: other teams defend him, how I think he's playing, how
Speaker 1: in sort of flow he looks, and you play him
Speaker 1: accordingly based on those decisions. Coach I dversing Firk on
Speaker 1: this confidence backing my offensively is the way he's been
Speaker 1: able to get in the group lately. No, I haven't,
Speaker 1: but see the No I haven't. But the thing that
Speaker 1: I see, more than what the stat sheets shows is
Speaker 1: the reason I say that, Like we all see him
Speaker 1: bomb away and and uh you know, make some emphatic
Speaker 1: timely shots, long balls. You know, one of the balls
Speaker 1: that he had with Ben on just a busted play
Speaker 1: and a flipout as an example. But I see, you know,
Speaker 1: him being coming a better pass, and you know what
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, Like the defensive side of things, I
Speaker 1: see growth there and he's emerged to be one of
Speaker 1: our key players, you know, on a pretty good team.
Speaker 1: But his confidence is is certainly the the the highest
Speaker 1: sense I have coached him, But I say it again
Speaker 1: driven out of more than just sort of us seeing
Speaker 1: him bomb away and make threes. Was there a little
Speaker 1: like vindication by you know, you and even the front
Speaker 1: office bringing him back when you know, maybe there weren't
Speaker 1: a lot offers from him, and then also you, even
Speaker 1: when he had his struggles, continuing to play him this year,
Speaker 1: Penn promoting you with this. I don't know if vindication
Speaker 1: is the word. What I do know is it's a
Speaker 1: hell of a story. It really is. Because he was
Speaker 1: ours and for a time we weren't too sure if
Speaker 1: that was gonna, you know, continue on, and we because
Speaker 1: he was Owas for a period of time long enough
Speaker 1: to know that he's a good person, high character, loves
Speaker 1: the game. I think that his time Overseas in the
Speaker 1: summer planning for the Turkish national team, where he featured
Speaker 1: a lot, I think that propelled him to coming back
Speaker 1: and really like putting his hand up quite quickly in preseason,
Speaker 1: and us paying attention the fact that we don't have
Speaker 1: like an abundance of sort of veteran wings that were
Speaker 1: like locked in two a spot also helped. Where it
Speaker 1: was a competitive situation. He combined the two environments and
Speaker 1: to your point, he was away was it was. It's
Speaker 1: been a timely sort of relationship that he's certainly taken
Speaker 1: advantage of. Seventy six Ers beat the Chicago Bulls one, eighteen,
Speaker 1: one eleven. Some postgame thoughts from Brett Brown. Thirty one
Speaker 1: points for fur Con Corkmas, twenty eight and twelve for
Speaker 1: Joel and beat plus four block shots, nineteen points, ten rebunds,
Speaker 1: ten assists and other double make that triple double for
Speaker 1: Ben Simmons, fourteen for Tobias Harris as the seventy Sixers
Speaker 1: knock off the Bulls to win their second in a
Speaker 1: row and improved to thirty three and twenty one. Tom
Speaker 1: McGinnis had the call tonight's game. Tom so far on
Speaker 1: this homestand a cool sixty five point total for our
Speaker 1: man fur Con Quirk miles behind thirteen three pointers. We
Speaker 1: got to find out and have what he's having, right,
Speaker 1: He's unbelievable and as Gee rich Josh Richardson shared, you
Speaker 1: know the bench and like I said earlier, I think
Speaker 1: everybody in the arena when he catches it and shoots
Speaker 1: the three you expected to go in and you're kind
Speaker 1: of shocked when it doesn't. That's the kind of tear
Speaker 1: he's been on and it's been an awesome thing to watch.
Speaker 1: And he's really helped the Sixers seventeen points in a quarter,
Speaker 1: one of the best quarters for a reserve in recent
Speaker 1: NBA history, going back all the way to like Luel
Speaker 1: Dang and Ben Gordon and Will Barton, some of the
Speaker 1: other guys that had done that, and just really helped
Speaker 1: lift the Sixers up and into the lead in then
Speaker 1: an opening quarter with his performance. And you know, they
Speaker 1: really covered him well and he's able to break free
Speaker 1: get some layups. He and Simmons had that terrific exchange
Speaker 1: where Furcon stole the ball, batted at the bend, Simmons
Speaker 1: with a touch bass back to Furkon. This was late
Speaker 1: in the first half and fur Con from just inside
Speaker 1: the hash mark on that far side knocking down to three.
Speaker 1: Just pretty basketball, fun to watch, great entertainment, and he
Speaker 1: has been terrific. Seventy six Ers knock off the Bulls
Speaker 1: one eighteen, one eleven for their second consecutive win. Thought too,
Speaker 1: I'm not sure about you that with about four minutes ago,
Speaker 1: Furkon with his second straight basket, that driving dunk on
Speaker 1: the curl that made it a ten point game. It
Speaker 1: seemed like the Sixers were in a pretty good spot
Speaker 1: of the bulls. They kept battling back, as they did
Speaker 1: really after falling down big time after the first quarter.
Speaker 1: There was Joel and beat in the end to connect
Speaker 1: on a key three pointer. And some of the numbers
Speaker 1: for Joe tonite really really good and Joel e beat
Speaker 1: like twenty eight points, eight for seventeen, shooting twelve rebounds,
Speaker 1: four block shots. But getting to the free throw line,
Speaker 1: that was an area we could say the Sixers in
Speaker 1: an otherwise competitive game, we're able to clinch this one
Speaker 1: essentially where they outscored the balls by ten from the line,
Speaker 1: and Joe is a big reason why that for sure,
Speaker 1: in a game they win by seven and a bead.
Speaker 1: First of all, he got Cornette with a couple of
Speaker 1: early fouls. Then they come in with Felicio, which, oh,
Speaker 1: by the way, those two guys scored the ball well,
Speaker 1: but they racked up the foules. Cornette ended up filing
Speaker 1: out Felicio then fouled Joel, and you're right, he was
Speaker 1: a dominant player. But I'd say defensively and again four blocks.
Speaker 1: But it's one of those things you almost have to
Speaker 1: be here to watch it, and I mean, certainly I
Speaker 1: think you can catch it on TV. But the point
Speaker 1: is they like for instance, Satarronsky would go into the
Speaker 1: lane and then or Cody White, Kobe White dribbling into
Speaker 1: there and then realizing the beat is there, and then
Speaker 1: just the Sixers called that a fish hook or a
Speaker 1: nash where he dribble the ball through the lane and
Speaker 1: come out because they're not going in there. They know
Speaker 1: he's in there, and then every now and then they
Speaker 1: would try it and he would completely snuff out the play.
Speaker 1: And that's the difference when a beat is in there.
Speaker 1: He is a force and one of the top defenders
Speaker 1: in our league in that position. So he had a
Speaker 1: huge impact. And then, oh, by the way, we're talking
Speaker 1: about all these players, and Ben Simmons had a triple double,
Speaker 1: so I mean, tremendous individual performances. There was certainly a
Speaker 1: pocket there down the stretch where the Sixers could have
Speaker 1: finished the game better. They had a spell of five
Speaker 1: possessions where they turn it over four times. You know,
Speaker 1: they had a couple of missed opportunities with shots, but
Speaker 1: like you say, enough down the stretch and you can't
Speaker 1: let your guard down. And I think that's what happened
Speaker 1: in the second quarter a little bit and in the third,
Speaker 1: where you know, the Bulls they got everything. They're just
Speaker 1: trying to get better and improve and be competitive. They're
Speaker 1: young and they keep coming at you. And Levine, after
Speaker 1: no threes in the first half, had five and fifteen
Speaker 1: points in the third. He's without question one of the
Speaker 1: top talents in the NBA. And I think the Sixers
Speaker 1: dropped their guard just a bit and that's what made
Speaker 1: it so competitive, but enough to hold off and beat
Speaker 1: Chicago and yet another home victory, twenty four overall in
Speaker 1: front of what a twenty one thousand plus one of
Speaker 1: the crowds of the year, Sixers adding to their league
Speaker 1: best home record. Ben Simmons leading the Eastern Conference now
Speaker 1: with five trible doubles. It's funny because I actually thought
Speaker 1: there were stretches where whether it was him or batistiebel
Speaker 1: they were defending Zach Levine kind of all right, Like
Speaker 1: that that one possession early on when Ben fought over
Speaker 1: the pick on a dribble handoff that Levine and Cornette
Speaker 1: were trying to work and then Ben stole the ball
Speaker 1: away to lead to a shake Milton run out. Like
Speaker 1: that was a great defensive play. But you're right, Levine
Speaker 1: is a pretty special talent, so fast with the ball,
Speaker 1: you know, and if you you know, once he gets
Speaker 1: that three point shot going, then you come out on him,
Speaker 1: you know, ever so slightly, and foom, he's buy it
Speaker 1: for a jam. And you know, he's been a real
Speaker 1: bright spot for them, as you said, like maybe considered
Speaker 1: an All Star snub, but you know, with nineteen wins,
Speaker 1: they're probably it's too bad too with the All Star
Speaker 1: game right there in Chicago, but he's definitely got that
Speaker 1: in his future. And then you know, just mentioned his
Speaker 1: three point shot and the skill set that you admire,
Speaker 1: his ability with the escape dribble boom boom, a couple
Speaker 1: dribbles behind the line and you know, you're still kind
Speaker 1: of recovering defensively, and he's already got the shot off.
Speaker 1: So he's got a real quick delivery, real hard worker,
Speaker 1: good player, and obviously it sounds like a really good guy.
Speaker 1: And certainly the Bulls they've got young talent, and you know,
Speaker 1: like I said earlier, maybe coming into this game. You
Speaker 1: would have thought they would have been more of a
Speaker 1: picture or part of the picture in the East, but
Speaker 1: their injuries, they just cannot get any consistency, and most
Speaker 1: of their young players have been hurt throughout the periods
Speaker 1: on and off this season. Seventy six ers over the
Speaker 1: Bulls one eighteen when eleven will leave you with this
Speaker 1: time about Glenn Robinson the third and his debut ten
Speaker 1: points twelve minutes. Probably won't go like that every night
Speaker 1: that he's out there in uniform. But he took what
Speaker 1: was presented to him in the game, moved well on
Speaker 1: a couple opportunities off the ball, Maan a nice cut
Speaker 1: to the basket for a dunk, and not a bad
Speaker 1: way to get the stint with your new squad, old
Speaker 1: squad going no, you're right. He and again, this is
Speaker 1: kind of like what Daddy as young does too, and
Speaker 1: that is you fill a gap if somebody you know
Speaker 1: drives the ball, you follow right through. Or in other cases,
Speaker 1: he came from the opposite side where you know you
Speaker 1: can see where a guy's driving the ball. You're kind
Speaker 1: of angling in there for position for a potential rebound.
Speaker 1: And he made himself available and he went five for five.
Speaker 1: Every basket he scored was was right at the rim.
Speaker 1: And again, you know, I'm not exactly sure that Warriors
Speaker 1: play with motion, you know, like what his role was there,
Speaker 1: but his role is going to be different here. He's
Speaker 1: gonna be called on to be like a spot up
Speaker 1: shooter and you're gonna probably see that as his you know,
Speaker 1: his role progresses with the Sixers certainly a little bit Tuesday,
Speaker 1: but then after the break, but tonight like perfect, you know,
Speaker 1: I mean, he scored five baskets. He might have had
Speaker 1: five dribbles, So very impressive and you expect a good things.
Speaker 1: Coach Brown has really talked about his defense and then
Speaker 1: I think he probably gonna get to start to see
Speaker 1: Alec Burks a little bit as well. But so far
Speaker 1: furk On, you know, he ruled the night. You can't
Speaker 1: get away from that. Just an incredible performance and just
Speaker 1: like of all the talent in the building. Six and
Speaker 1: that's the other thing. Six six at, a twenty two
Speaker 1: year old from Turkey, had had the Philadelphia crowd in
Speaker 1: the palm of his hand to sort of speak with
Speaker 1: how he played and how they responded, No doubt about it.
Speaker 1: Great win for the seventy six ers tonight because it
Speaker 1: was the latest one. Tom will speak on Tuesday, final
Speaker 1: game before the break, Sixers and the Clippers. All right, thanks,
Speaker 1: good night, seventy sixers over the Bulls one eighteen to
Speaker 1: one eleven. Let's hear how it sounded called by the
Speaker 1: one only Tom mcguinnis tonight. Furkon Corkmis early on was
Speaker 1: in a groove. It didn't stop throughout most of the night.
Speaker 1: But this is how he got himself gone. Here. Simmons
Speaker 1: out the corkmis fur Coon for three. It's good so
Speaker 1: a steel transition play and a runout and a three
Speaker 1: by furk on Corkmas. Over to Corkmi, sidesteps a man
Speaker 1: shoot to three and good again. Furk on Quarkmus had
Speaker 1: knocked away by Corkmos. He makes a steel back to Simmons.
Speaker 1: Simmons the krkmos Quarkmis in the night right hand layp
Speaker 1: smooth sailing at fur con cark Bis is delivering again.
Speaker 1: Joel with it against police. He helped big bodies collide. Heyhead.
Speaker 1: He goes out to fur con for tree. It's good again?
Speaker 1: Are you kidding? Made? Fur con cark Mos delivers another
Speaker 1: triple now you think that we'd be kidding you, but
Speaker 1: this is reality, for real, the truth. Fur con Corkmise
Speaker 1: has been playing at such an insane level the last
Speaker 1: two games. Those were some highlights from the first quarter.
Speaker 1: He helped the seventy six ers to a thirty eight
Speaker 1: twenty five lead after one. He scored seventeen points in
Speaker 1: the first quarter alone. In period number two, the Bulls
Speaker 1: began to battle back, Ben Simmons doing his part to
Speaker 1: keep at that point the Sixers in front by double figures.
Speaker 1: Simmons one on one, Boe picked up his dribble. He
Speaker 1: goes to shake five to shoot. Milton mobs at Simmons
Speaker 1: with an allayum champ oh man up high down, hard
Speaker 1: right hand. Hello you nice feed shape built with it.
Speaker 1: I actually think that Simmons and Milton played pretty well
Speaker 1: together over the course of the last couple of weeks,
Speaker 1: with Milton getting more and more minutes. The Bulls tightened
Speaker 1: things up towards the half the Sixers later the break
Speaker 1: was sixty two at fifty five in the third quarter.
Speaker 1: That gentleman fur con Corkmas continued to come up large
Speaker 1: and here's a steel by fur cod He goes to
Speaker 1: bed back to Corkmas deep three by fur Con is
Speaker 1: good oh Man, fur Con Cartmas and sevens putting on
Speaker 1: a clinic here and the Sixers go up by a
Speaker 1: half a dozen. Seventy four sixty eight was the score
Speaker 1: at that point, though it was tied at eighty three
Speaker 1: heading into the fourth. Glenn Robinson the third making his
Speaker 1: debut a second time around with the seventy six ers tonight.
Speaker 1: He was here at the end of the twenty fifteen season,
Speaker 1: acquired in a trade from Golden State on Thursday, and
Speaker 1: he made the most of his minutes. Labine download spins
Speaker 1: and bead picks it up. Richardson forced to turnover down
Speaker 1: the far sideline. Josh Richardson in on. Everybody jumps it
Speaker 1: back at Robinson with another lay up. Shosh just getting
Speaker 1: it done. He's connecting the dots. That's what Brett Brown says.
Speaker 1: He's a dot connector six in a row. Richardson his
Speaker 1: second game in a row off the bench since returning
Speaker 1: from injury at Glenn Robinson the third in double figures tonight.
Speaker 1: That made it ninety five to eighty seven down the stretch.
Speaker 1: The Sixers needed some breathing room and breathing life right
Speaker 1: back into them as he has been on this homestand court.
Speaker 1: Mis Harris on the move, eight point lead, four minutes
Speaker 1: to go. Cork Mos with it, Domine cork Bas, Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: a right hand jam. It's Burke on Cork Mos taking
Speaker 1: over in Philly. Thirty one points to close things out.
Speaker 1: Joel Ebad put the seventy sixers right where they needed
Speaker 1: to as time was winding down. Simmons to a beat,
Speaker 1: it beat shoots a date three and oh Man, well
Speaker 1: beyond the art it beat with a twenty seven footer
Speaker 1: and that makes it an eight point game. Seventy sixers
Speaker 1: going to win by seven tonight one eighteen one eleven.
Speaker 1: Final notes from the final statuet six or shoot fifty percent.
Speaker 1: The Bulls were forty nine and a half percent from
Speaker 1: the field, Sixers with eleven three point or Chicago with twelve.
Speaker 1: But one of the areas, one of the key areas
Speaker 1: with the Sixers won the game tonight. From the free
Speaker 1: throw line, they got their fifteen more times than Chicago
Speaker 1: thirty two to seventeen, and they made ten more twenty
Speaker 1: three to thirteen, So that pivotal for the seventy sixers.
Speaker 1: In their victory over Chicago. Looking at some of the
Speaker 1: individuals scoring notes, of course, there was fur Con Corkmas
Speaker 1: with his thirty one He was twelve to seventeen overall
Speaker 1: in six eleven from three, Ben Simmons with nineteen points,
Speaker 1: ten assists and also ten rebounds as he picks up
Speaker 1: a triple double, his fifth on the year. Twenty eight points,
Speaker 1: twelve boards for Joel and beat fourteen points for Tobias Harris,
Speaker 1: who had some key shots down the stretch. Glenn Robinson
Speaker 1: the third ten points in twelve minutes in his first
Speaker 1: game back with the seventy sixers after a four and
Speaker 1: a half year hiatus. Sixers are now thirty three and
Speaker 1: twenty one. They have won two in a row and
Speaker 1: look to make it three straight to go into the
Speaker 1: All Star Game break. That would be a really great
Speaker 1: note and boost for this team given how things went
Speaker 1: on the road last week. All the Sixers have are
Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Clippers, which are playing at Cleveland tonight,
Speaker 1: leading by twenty five in the third quarter. The Clippers,
Speaker 1: with a third best record in the West at thirty
Speaker 1: six and sixteen, should be great. You would figure that
Speaker 1: with an off day tomorrow, the Clippers could have both
Speaker 1: Kawhi Leonard and Paul George active and available, so one
Speaker 1: of the highlights of the home schedule this year the
Speaker 1: Clippers at seven pm on Tuesday. You've been listening to Rewind,
Speaker 1: look out for fresh episodes the day after every seventy
Speaker 1: sixers game this season.
