Speaker 1: But like I think, you know that that that group
Speaker 1: that just hasn't played much basketball together, I'm always interested
Speaker 1: in helping them and in playing good, solid basketball. It
Speaker 1: was good to see Furkon come in after you know,
Speaker 1: a long time off and just simply get a run.
Speaker 1: I thought Arson was pretty good as well from our
Speaker 1: regular guys. In relation to what can we do to
Speaker 1: get better? I think doing what we've been doing, you know,
Speaker 1: is productive with our starting group, but that low minute group,
Speaker 1: I want to, you know, have them played better basketball? Coach?
Speaker 1: When the game gets out of hand like it did.
Speaker 1: I think you guys keep focused, keep concentration. That they
Speaker 1: do a good job at that. I think. I think
Speaker 1: that a third period was a thing that I was
Speaker 1: most impressed with. You know, we held them to sixteen points.
Speaker 1: We scored twenty five. We had too many turnovers in
Speaker 1: that period, but we knew that with the lead that
Speaker 1: we had built to be able to maintain that sense
Speaker 1: of urgency. They're really like last night when we jumped
Speaker 1: on Memphis. You know, that third period I think was
Speaker 1: a statement period for our team. Thank you nine five
Speaker 1: the Fanatic. This is the Sixers post game show. Here
Speaker 1: on the Sixers Radio Network Sixers win yet again. Ellis
Speaker 1: head back to our Lando at the Mway Center for
Speaker 1: Brett Brown. They're really like last night when we jumped
Speaker 1: on Memphis. You know that third period I think was
Speaker 1: a statement period for our team. Thank you, Thank you,
Speaker 1: goes Sixers head coach on the post game show Brett Brown,
Speaker 1: again outside of the winning locker room, as the Philadelphia
Speaker 1: seventy Sixers are victorious yet again with a one eighteen
Speaker 1: ninety eight win over the Orlando Magic. Second night of hey,
Speaker 1: back to back games, two straight, very familiar results with
Speaker 1: the dominant performance in each and this one a win
Speaker 1: over the host Orlando Magic again by the score of
Speaker 1: one eighteen ninety eight, Philadelphia's fifth straight win forty first
Speaker 1: victory of the season, now eleven games over five hundred
Speaker 1: with a forty one and thirty record. Welcome to the
Speaker 1: Sixers postgame show. I'm divine givens. We just heard briefly
Speaker 1: from head coach Brett Brown. We will head back there
Speaker 1: shortly again to hear from radio voice Tom McGuinness and
Speaker 1: also later on share some of the audio highlights from
Speaker 1: tonight's game. The Sixers once again in control throughout this contest,
Speaker 1: as they set the tone early in the first quarter,
Speaker 1: posting thirty two points to Orlando's twenty three, and never
Speaker 1: letting up and never taking their foot off the gas,
Speaker 1: whether it be by stepping up their defensive effort, converting
Speaker 1: from deep behind the arc, sharing the basketball, or simply
Speaker 1: getting big time contributions like they did tonight from the bench.
Speaker 1: This team seems to have found a formula of winning
Speaker 1: at the right time of this basketball season. For the
Speaker 1: second consecutive night, the Sixers had the luxury of resting
Speaker 1: their starters yet again for the entire fourth quarter thanks
Speaker 1: to the lopsided score after three quarters. Joel Embiid fantastic
Speaker 1: again minimal minutes and that's a good thing with only
Speaker 1: twenty minutes of run tonight, and was very effective, posting
Speaker 1: seventeen points on six to eleven from the field, one
Speaker 1: or four from behind the three point line, four or
Speaker 1: four from the free throws, and also nine rebounds for
Speaker 1: the All star center. JJ Reddick also very good in
Speaker 1: minimal minutes, yet again not a lot of minutes for
Speaker 1: the starters. Very good at this stretch both last night
Speaker 1: and tonight to be able to rest in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 1: Reddick seventeen points. I mean, pardon me, seventeen minutes, twelve points,
Speaker 1: three of eight from the floor, five or five from
Speaker 1: the free throw line. Getting to the free throw line
Speaker 1: a good sign to see from JJ Reddick, not known
Speaker 1: for putting the ball on the floor, creating for himself,
Speaker 1: but not just standing out on the perimeter trying to
Speaker 1: knock down jumpers, which that is his strong suit as
Speaker 1: we know, but getting to the free throw line converting
Speaker 1: getting easy ones four not only himself but his team.
Speaker 1: Dario Charts ten points on three of seven shooting one
Speaker 1: of two from behind the three point line in twenty
Speaker 1: two minutes, three or four from the free throw line,
Speaker 1: adding ten rebounds. So another good night again for Dario
Speaker 1: Schartz overall, Robert Covington, another solid night for your starting
Speaker 1: small forward in twenty six minutes of action, five of
Speaker 1: twelve point the floor, three of seven from behind the
Speaker 1: three point line for fifteen points for Robert Covington. Ben
Speaker 1: Simmons twenty seven minutes to high mark in terms of
Speaker 1: minutes for the entire team, three or four, only four
Speaker 1: attempts from the floor, all of two from the free
Speaker 1: throw line, but he seemed to have a control over
Speaker 1: this basketball game for the entire night did have four turnovers,
Speaker 1: but that's something we can pretty much overlook at just
Speaker 1: the pace of the game and how things went. He
Speaker 1: had six points, ten assist, eleven rebounds in twenty seven minutes.
Speaker 1: Good contribution to get off the bench from Iliasova and
Speaker 1: Bellinelli eighteen and fifteen respectively for your bench unit in
Speaker 1: those guys, and just an overall overall good group effort
Speaker 1: in this victory again one eighteen ninety eight over the
Speaker 1: Orlando Magic. Quick break, we head back to Orlando check
Speaker 1: in with Tom McGinnis to get his thoughts on again
Speaker 1: a one eighteen ninety eight victory over the Orlando Magic,
Speaker 1: fifth straight for the Philadelphia seventy six Ers forty first
Speaker 1: overall on the season with eleven games remaining. This is
Speaker 1: the postgame show on the Sixers Radio Network, ninety seven
Speaker 1: five The Fanatic. This is the Philadelphia has seventy Sixers
Speaker 1: postgame show feat. I can look about about Bronch Friez
Speaker 1: Hards just gonna turn him. Get it off Matty Roll.
Speaker 1: The Sixers post game show right now on ninety seven
Speaker 1: five The Fanatic. Six is victorious yet again, won eighteen
Speaker 1: ninety eight over the Orlando Magic, their fifth straight win,
Speaker 1: forty first on the season. Record now stands at forty
Speaker 1: one and thirty, still sitting in the fourth spot in
Speaker 1: the Eastern Conference. Sounds very good to say about your
Speaker 1: Philadelphia seventy six is I'm divine, givens. This is the
Speaker 1: postgame show as we head back to Orlando and the
Speaker 1: Amway Center to check in with Tom McGinnis and Tom
Speaker 1: I can get used to this where the fourth quarter
Speaker 1: we start to see the reserves and get those guys work.
Speaker 1: That just goes to show how good the Sixers start
Speaker 1: things out with their starters putting teams away very early. No,
Speaker 1: they did, and I thought they did a nice job
Speaker 1: of both driving the basketball, getting to the rim, and
Speaker 1: then obviously coming on strong with the threes. Your son
Speaker 1: had a really good first half with thirteen points, and
Speaker 1: Bead was very effective and Ben Simmons able to get
Speaker 1: in there, get a couple of driving baskets and moving
Speaker 1: that ball around and another high assist night from him,
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, Dario solid with the rebounding. Overall great performance.
Speaker 1: You're playing two underman teams that are underachieving and the
Speaker 1: Sixers taking care of business up thirty two nights in
Speaker 1: a row into the fourth quarter, and that's exactly what
Speaker 1: you'd hope for for a team that's getting better. Is
Speaker 1: the months and the season has progressed, taking care of business,
Speaker 1: not letting up, and just now continuing to win their
Speaker 1: what is now their fifth win in a row. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and Tom, when you look at the bench contribution that
Speaker 1: they're getting, you said Elio Silvan. The first half solid
Speaker 1: night eighteen overall, Marco Bellanelli solid pickup as well. Brett
Speaker 1: Brown seems to be really finding his way with his
Speaker 1: rotation when it comes to as you point out during
Speaker 1: the game, the four minutes in to the first Bellinelli in,
Speaker 1: then Amir Johnson or Shawn Holmes, whoever he feels that
Speaker 1: night for Joel and Bat, Brett Brown again seems to
Speaker 1: be finding a good feel for his people as things
Speaker 1: get to, you know, get close to the playoffs and
Speaker 1: what he wants to do with his rotation. Well, that's
Speaker 1: one of the biggest things for a coach. I mean,
Speaker 1: even if you coach at any level, you're looking at
Speaker 1: your personnel and trying to figure out how you're going
Speaker 1: to utilize them put them in the best situations to succeed.
Speaker 1: And then part of it also is keeping guys ready,
Speaker 1: like Justin Anners, some of these guys toward the Rashaw
Speaker 1: Holmes to the latter portion of you know, whether it's
Speaker 1: an eight or nine or ten person rotation, that and
Speaker 1: play calls. That That's what keeps a coach up at night,
Speaker 1: and that is you know how you're gonna react in
Speaker 1: situations with the game on the line, and know he's
Speaker 1: done a great job. And you know the other thing
Speaker 1: is these guys come into the game, Bell and Ellie Idyosolva,
Speaker 1: They're looking for Justin Anderson, They're looking for their shots.
Speaker 1: They're aggressive, and Amir Johnson just does so many overall
Speaker 1: things defensively, rebounding, assists, contesting at the basket. You've got
Speaker 1: a lot of parts. I mean again, we go back
Speaker 1: and been a couple of years since Brian Colangelo took
Speaker 1: over the front office and he talked about a positionally
Speaker 1: balanced roster, and I think you're getting close to that
Speaker 1: with some of the personnel that Brett Brown has at
Speaker 1: his disposal in terms of using them for his team.
Speaker 1: Tom m again is joining his life from Amway Center.
Speaker 1: Six is victorious again. One eighteen ninety eight time, when
Speaker 1: you talk about the position list basketball, there's one guy
Speaker 1: who's six ten who doesn't seem like he should be
Speaker 1: playing point guard, but he does and he has done
Speaker 1: it so well. And of course has Ben Simmons. You
Speaker 1: saw him last year briefly with him learning the game,
Speaker 1: being out with the injury. Then you see him this
Speaker 1: year and what he's been able to do, putting up
Speaker 1: spectacular numbers in great nights, night after night, only three
Speaker 1: or four from the field, but he contributed to six points,
Speaker 1: ten assists, eleven rebounds in twenty seven minutes. Yet it
Speaker 1: seemed like he had total control of this basketball game
Speaker 1: well without doubt. And you know they have DJ Augustine
Speaker 1: out there. I thought his own, Yeah, there's no way
Speaker 1: they had Aaron Gordon on Ben there for a while.
Speaker 1: But you get so many different mismatches and switches that
Speaker 1: you know, all of those guys ended up garden him.
Speaker 1: And you know, the one thing about Simmons and Brett
Speaker 1: Brown touchdown it and we've all seen him so we
Speaker 1: all know this. But he's a great athlete. He's just incredible,
Speaker 1: and the strides and the fluidity and the strength of
Speaker 1: his motions, the way he gets to the basket, just
Speaker 1: he's like coasting out there or sort of peers. When
Speaker 1: you get a guy of this athletic ability, and you
Speaker 1: mentioned the year off and again you know, personally, I
Speaker 1: know when when you I stopped playing bass college basketball
Speaker 1: after my sophomore year, and it's like those years that
Speaker 1: nineteen twenty that you really you gain strength and mature.
Speaker 1: And Ben Simmons had basically a redshirt year in the NBA,
Speaker 1: would have only been a sophomore in college a junior
Speaker 1: at this point if he had gone the traditional route,
Speaker 1: which anymore is not the traditional route among these top players.
Speaker 1: But point being that, you know, he was still able
Speaker 1: to lift and work out. He got this tutorial from
Speaker 1: the coach Watch the NBA traveled, got the rhythm of
Speaker 1: the season even though he wasn't actually out there competing
Speaker 1: during games, and physically developed, and you know, it's turned
Speaker 1: into really one of the best rookie seasons that the
Speaker 1: NBA's ever seen in terms of the numbers that he's
Speaker 1: racking up. And here's the thing, He's only getting better
Speaker 1: and is obviously going to improve by leaps and bounds
Speaker 1: as he moves forward into the early part of his career. Well,
Speaker 1: it's a treat to watch him, and it's the treat
Speaker 1: to watch this basketball team right now again picking up
Speaker 1: their forty first win in fifth straight. Tom overall for
Speaker 1: this basketball team, good stuff again is always can't wait
Speaker 1: to hear from you again on Saturday back at home
Speaker 1: as the Minnesota Timberwolves come to town at the Center.
Speaker 1: Competition gets a little thicker, Yes it does, alright, Tom,
Speaker 1: have a good trip back Tom again us again joining
Speaker 1: us live from Amway Center. This is the postgame show.
Speaker 1: Sixers win one eighteen ninety eight, now forty one and
Speaker 1: thirty on this season. Just a spectacular job by this
Speaker 1: team overall. Before we got started, before we went to
Speaker 1: Tom Againnis at the Amway Center, Brett Brown did whole
Speaker 1: court with the assembled media outside of the locker room.
Speaker 1: Victorious yet again, one eighteen ninety eight over the Orlando Magic.
Speaker 1: We did not give it, give you a chance to
Speaker 1: hear it in its entirety. So we will check back
Speaker 1: in right now with some of the thoughts from Brett
Speaker 1: Brown postgame. But like I think you know that that
Speaker 1: group that just hasn't played much basketball together, I'm always
Speaker 1: interested in helping them and in playing good, solid basketball.
Speaker 1: It was good to see Furkon come in after you know,
Speaker 1: a long time off and just simply get a run.
Speaker 1: I thought Earson was pretty good as well. From our
Speaker 1: regular guys. In relation to what can we do to
Speaker 1: get better? I think doing what we've been doing, you know,
Speaker 1: is productive with our starting group, but that low minute group,
Speaker 1: I want to, you know, have them played better basketball?
Speaker 1: Coach when the game gets out of hand like it
Speaker 1: did after your guys that keep focus, keep concentration, that
Speaker 1: they do a good job at that. I think. I
Speaker 1: think that a third period was a thing that I
Speaker 1: was most impressed with. You know, we held them to
Speaker 1: sixteen points. We scored twenty five. We had too many
Speaker 1: turnovers in that period, but we knew that with the
Speaker 1: lead that we had built to be able to maintain
Speaker 1: that sense of urgency and the head coach Brett Brown
Speaker 1: live from the Amway Center post game discussing the Philadelphia
Speaker 1: seventy sixers win one eighteen ninety eight to twenty point
Speaker 1: win tonight over the host Orlando Magic. When we come
Speaker 1: back on the other side, we get into the highlights
Speaker 1: from Tom McGuinness, just plenty of highlights tonight in this
Speaker 1: one where they ran this one out away very early,
Speaker 1: got up very early, and never let up a little
Speaker 1: bit in the first quarter where they went back to
Speaker 1: back and forth, but then the Sixers imposed their will,
Speaker 1: pulled away and never came back and allowed the Orlando
Speaker 1: Magic in it again. Sixers victorious one, eighteen ninety eight
Speaker 1: over the Orlando Magic on the other side. Highlights from
Speaker 1: Tom Guinness's game called This is the Sixers Radio Network
Speaker 1: on Sixers postgame show right here ninety seven five The
Speaker 1: Fanatic ninety seven five The Fanatic one, eighteen ninety eight.
Speaker 1: Sixes beat the Orlando Magic in Orlando by twenty again tonight,
Speaker 1: picking up their forty first win on the season. Eleven
Speaker 1: games remaining back at it on Saturday. Stifferent competition at
Speaker 1: Tom mcguinnis pointed out, and what that is is again
Speaker 1: stifferent competition. You have to step your game up. Five
Speaker 1: games they have won in a row and now they
Speaker 1: get back at it on Saturday against the Minnesota Timberwols.
Speaker 1: But for tonight, let's get to the highlights. Everybody had
Speaker 1: a hand in this win. We talked about Ben Simmons
Speaker 1: and how he has been able to control the game
Speaker 1: with less shots, but also still being able to play defense,
Speaker 1: converting him into buckets. Simmons knocks it away. Now Ben
Speaker 1: Simmons is gonna get a chap running with a left
Speaker 1: hand dunks. Orlando turns it over and Simmons makes them
Speaker 1: pay twelve eleven sixers at that point, telegraphing the past
Speaker 1: the Orlando magic did Ben Simmons smartly planning passing lane,
Speaker 1: steal it, get out in the open floor for a
Speaker 1: breakaway dunk twelve eleven Again, then you had Marco Belinelli
Speaker 1: with the crossover and a step back jumper. We always
Speaker 1: talk about his outside shooting, but not so much about
Speaker 1: his handle and his creativity for not only himself with
Speaker 1: others that made his sixteen fourteen Ben Simmons rebound to
Speaker 1: Marco Belinelli to air sound Ilias Silva for dunk. Just
Speaker 1: great display of passing to make it eighteen sixteen. Justin
Speaker 1: Anderson one more player off the bench, contributing in a
Speaker 1: lot of different ways. Here's a beat down low right
Speaker 1: back up to Anderson, three ball right perimeter and got it.
Speaker 1: Justin Anderson with the left handed trade. Good kick out
Speaker 1: of the post. There by Joel and bead sixers. Second three,
Speaker 1: Joel with his third assist, Sixers by nine, thirty to
Speaker 1: twenty one. Justin Anderson again with that three pointer at
Speaker 1: the end of one thirty two twenty three, Sixers up
Speaker 1: by nine after one, they get right back at it
Speaker 1: where consecutive baskets and the fouls. Three straight consecutive baskets
Speaker 1: and fouls seem like joelan beat with the layup and
Speaker 1: a foul. Did mister free throw make it thirty five
Speaker 1: twenty three but air sound. Ilias Silva again fantastic in
Speaker 1: the first half. Here are a few of those points.
Speaker 1: Aliasova dribbles, layoff up good of the fouler's Iliasoba is
Speaker 1: knocked out of bounds. Tubbles down there the stanship that
Speaker 1: was off of a missed shot. Justin Anderson, great hustle,
Speaker 1: gets the offensive rebound, passes into Iliasova, allowing him to
Speaker 1: convert the layup and then making the free throw. Forty
Speaker 1: one thirty sixers at that point. And Beat then got
Speaker 1: himself his very own and one with the dunk and
Speaker 1: the foul forty four thirty. Ben Simmons again driving down
Speaker 1: the lane dunk and he only made three shots. They
Speaker 1: were all dunks. Fifty six thirty nine, Joeling Bead showing
Speaker 1: his touch again from out behind the arc, the sides up,
Speaker 1: the defender can't get it. Now a beat out of
Speaker 1: the yard near sight three bonus god Joanna Bade knocks
Speaker 1: it down sixty seconds ago. Had these sixers on a
Speaker 1: tear here to close out the first half. Seventy first
Speaker 1: half points, seventy to forty, seventy advantage at that point.
Speaker 1: Orlando did score two points on that final possession before
Speaker 1: the horn sounded four halftime seventy to forty nine. At
Speaker 1: the break back at it in the third quarter, Aaron
Speaker 1: Gordon did get into the mix a little bit with
Speaker 1: a great reverse alley. You just fantastic athleticism by the
Speaker 1: young player for the Orlando Magic. But again we talked
Speaker 1: about Ben Simmons and the points that he had three
Speaker 1: or four from the floor, all three being dunks. Here
Speaker 1: is two of those points cut off by a bed.
Speaker 1: Now Joel walks out to the arc to defend him,
Speaker 1: and now Simmons steals, and here's a breakout. Ben Simmons
Speaker 1: breaks free and a left hand jail. There's Ben Simmons
Speaker 1: with the steel showing his two way ability yet again
Speaker 1: getting the steel getting out in the open floor, converting
Speaker 1: another dunk eighty to fifty four at that time for
Speaker 1: the Sixers. Robert Covington another solid night. As we mentioned earlier,
Speaker 1: he converted for three. Right here, Covington for three for
Speaker 1: the Sixers and that's good. That's his third three fifteen
Speaker 1: points Sixers in a route for the second consecutive night.
Speaker 1: Taking care of businesses could be a five game winning street.
Speaker 1: Fifteen points for Covington. He was three of seven from
Speaker 1: behind the arc fifty seven after that made basket ninety
Speaker 1: five sixty five at the end of three. Then, as
Speaker 1: we pointed out, the Sixers starters were able to wrest
Speaker 1: some much needed rest as this one was a route
Speaker 1: and out of hand. But you started to get some
Speaker 1: more guys some time on the floor, specifically some of
Speaker 1: the players that have not been able to and in
Speaker 1: fur con Quorkmis this case due to injury, not being
Speaker 1: able to play. He gets into the action twenty seven
Speaker 1: percent from three for the Magic Here's Corkbox for three
Speaker 1: and that's good. Fur Cod knocked at out fourteen may
Speaker 1: threes and the Sixers, after a dry spell early here
Speaker 1: in the final frame and picked it up again. Corkmiles
Speaker 1: back after battling a foot injury. Good to see him
Speaker 1: back on the floor taking five shot attempts, one of
Speaker 1: three from behind the three point line one of five
Speaker 1: overall those was only three points. Good overall effort by
Speaker 1: the Sixers tonight in this victory one eighteen ninety eight
Speaker 1: over the host Orlando Magic again off the bench for
Speaker 1: the Sixers. Fifteen for Marco Belinelli in twenty three minutes
Speaker 1: to play five or ten from the floor. It seems
Speaker 1: like that's his line of every single night, giving you
Speaker 1: good production off the bench. Aarsund Iliosilva set the tone
Speaker 1: early for his solid play seven of eleven overall, three
Speaker 1: or four from behind the yard, eighteen points, three rebounds
Speaker 1: in good play from earsign Iliosilva. TJ McConnell four points,
Speaker 1: six assists, five rebounds in twenty one minutes in twenty
Speaker 1: eight seconds. Rashaun Holmes active yet again in his twelve
Speaker 1: minutes of play three or five from the floor for
Speaker 1: seven points and five rebounds as well. Amir Johnson just
Speaker 1: coming in playing in solid overall kind of whole hum
Speaker 1: kind of defense and the whole hums set the screen,
Speaker 1: but very effective when it's being done by the veteran
Speaker 1: big man. Again, solid bench production overall for the seventy
Speaker 1: Sixes tonight in their one eighteen ninety eight victory. Twenty
Speaker 1: six assists for the Orlando Magic, thirty for the Sixes
Speaker 1: on forty two made baskets a fifty six to forty
Speaker 1: advantage on the glass for the Sixers, So solid contribution
Speaker 1: overall as a unit collectively doing what they needed to
Speaker 1: do to help get this one out of the way
Speaker 1: early and getting it done. Thirty two fast breakpoints for
Speaker 1: the Sixers to the Magics ten, twelve second chance points
Speaker 1: to the Magics five, So the Sixers overall just a solid,
Speaker 1: solid contribution from everyone on the floor, picking up their
Speaker 1: forty first victory on the season. At forty one and thirty,
Speaker 1: the Magic falls to twenty one and fifty one. The
Speaker 1: Sixers currently are one game ahead of the Washington Wizards,
Speaker 1: now in the fourth spot. The Wizards sit in the
Speaker 1: sixth place Indiana, a half game behind the Philadelphia seventy Sixers,
Speaker 1: and the Sixers are now one game behind the third
Speaker 1: place Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference. Standings eleven games
Speaker 1: to go. Will continue to monitor each and every game
Speaker 1: and not only watch what the seventy sixers do, but
Speaker 1: to see what the others are doing around them in
Speaker 1: the Eastern Conference. Because things are winding down. April eleven
Speaker 1: will be here soon and we'll know where the seventy
Speaker 1: Sixers will be in this playoff standing four. Tyler Zuli
Speaker 1: here back at the studio engineering the call Alienates with
Speaker 1: the great audio cuts. Tom McGinnis back in Orlando again,
Speaker 1: Sixers win one eighteen ninety eight over the Orlando Magic.
Speaker 1: If you're listening to us here on ninety seven five
Speaker 1: the Fanatic, it's you and I until midnight, taking your
Speaker 1: reaction to this win six one sixty three, two zero nine,
Speaker 1: seventy five and four hour affiliates. We will check back
Speaker 1: with you guys on Saturday as the Sixers take the
Speaker 1: floor yet again, hosting the Minnesota Timberwolves special start time
Speaker 1: six o'clock Saturday evening here on the Sixers Radio Network.
Speaker 1: So for Tyler Alan, Tom McGinnis, I'm Devine Givens. This
Speaker 1: has been the Sixes postgame show on the Sixers Radio Network.
Speaker 1: Following the Sixers win, Tom McGinnis had a chance to
Speaker 1: catch up with one of the players afterwards. So convincing
Speaker 1: victory for the Sexers. And I think we're gonna be
Speaker 1: joining courtside by Robert Covington who is going to join us.
Speaker 1: And the Coup had fifteen points in the game. Nice game, Robert,
Speaker 1: you guys for the second straight game. Take care of
Speaker 1: business at first to thirty six minutes. Was really great
Speaker 1: for you guys here tonight. Yeah, it was. It was
Speaker 1: a good start. You know, we was moving the ball
Speaker 1: really well, and we had, you know, a lot of
Speaker 1: a lot of blind layups. You know, we used to
Speaker 1: get inside out first, you know, but guys, you know,
Speaker 1: we really moved the ball and never really helped us,
Speaker 1: you know, we kind of solidified ourselves, you know, and
Speaker 1: the beginning of the game why it wanted to come out.
Speaker 1: We got stops, we got out in transition, easy buckets
Speaker 1: and that kind of like feel us from the very
Speaker 1: beginning you did get easy baskets. I thought Simmons were
Speaker 1: just cruising into the goal and you had a lot
Speaker 1: of three point and he had fifteen bridge. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: as you said, when you're scoring at both ends and defending,
Speaker 1: that's a pretty good combo. Yeah, we must definitely did.
Speaker 1: We had a lot of transitioning that Japan was doing
Speaker 1: amazing job find us the transition. Joe was done amazing
Speaker 1: job passing out of the the post. You know, he's seeing
Speaker 1: how they was guarding and he just made it easy
Speaker 1: on himself. So that's how, you know, we gotta be
Speaker 1: able to, you know, shout these type of games because
Speaker 1: we know that teams are going to double guys. You know,
Speaker 1: teams are going to sit that here and pressures Ben.
Speaker 1: You know, gonna sag off so he he sees a
Speaker 1: lot on the floor and he doesn't make dropping guys
Speaker 1: just you know, stepped up, knocked down the big shots
Speaker 1: ahead and numerous of guys hasn't double digits. You know,
Speaker 1: Bench came in and gave us parts throughout the game,
Speaker 1: and that's what we what allowed us to, you know,
Speaker 1: get that big League Last Thought Cup. But you've been
Speaker 1: on the other end of some of these scores. What's
Speaker 1: it feel like now to be the winning team of
Speaker 1: these big margins? Um? You just got to sit up
Speaker 1: here and you gotta finish our game strongs Um, you know,
Speaker 1: Orlandos and the want of the Rocket situations. But you know, unfortunate,
Speaker 1: you know, they still have a lot of good players
Speaker 1: over there, and you know they can get that thing.
Speaker 1: They can turn that thing around at any point, you know.
Speaker 1: But sometimes you know, it just it just you know
Speaker 1: the way teams that have you know, been playing the
Speaker 1: way we've been playing. Of course, you know it takes time,
Speaker 1: and you know you gotta just build and continue to
Speaker 1: sit up here and really, you know it really go
Speaker 1: out and work and that's what the main thing gets.
Speaker 1: You just gotta go out and work each and every
Speaker 1: day you step on that course. So you can't take
Speaker 1: no days off. You can't take nothing granted, because you know,
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, you never know how
