Looks like we will escape with a win. Big offense. Miles Turner - my goodness.

Turner shot the ball well tonight. But my god he is so soft on the boards.
Jaylen had a lot of juice tonight.
Brogdon was awesome as usual. He’s definitely one of my favorite point guards in the league. Such a unique player.

Btw, Brogdon is not far off from a 50-40-90 season. That would make him just the second player ever with two 50-40-90 seasons under his belt. The other two? Larry Bird and Steve Nash (who had like four or something)

Sloppy game but they won. God teams win these types of games.

Shoutout to the season old friend Will Hardy is having with the Jazz. Despite the team's best intentions to tank, they just keep being solid and a tough out. Between Will and Joe, there was a lot of talent under Ime last season. There was a lot of things under Ime last season but that's besides the point.

Will Hardy should be NBA Coach of the Year Award. Brogdon Sixth Man of the Year award

Last night was an impressive win tbh. We don't win that game last year. Gritty, hardnosed, and taken by grinding the Pacers down despite their youth, energy, and ability to not miss a deep 3. Love to see it.
Still, its clear both Timelord and Horford have lost a step following last season. Hope they round into form for the playoffs.

It’s a shame. He’s still a really good player, but the days of transcendent athleticism seem over.

Even if Timelord doesn’t look as athletic as he used to the defense is still night and day when he’s on the court

Grant is in a pretty rough stretch - not adding much value last few games.
ASG Tatum seems to have left his shot there.
First half Tatum - 4 points and 4 turnovers. Where is his head?

The offense runs so much better when it is initiated through Brogdon and White than Tatum and Brown. Gosh this team should be up 15 on Philadelphia right now.

White and Brogdon push things and play fast. Brown plays out of control in that role. Tatum often brings things to a standstill while he dribbles too much.

Team is starting to not like third quarters - they went through a spell like this last year. Tatum now 5 turnovers, 4 points, -20.

Philadelphia has Tatum number this year. I hope he proves me wrong in 4th.

So of course Big Al is keeping them in it. Deep team.

Man - all the way back from 15 down to take the lead. This team is as good as they are motivated to be. They got over the hump - can they keep it? Can Tatum and Brown get hot in the 4th?

Turned over to the Celtics about 5 minutes into the Bruins postgame and after about 2 minutes the Celtics have dominated.

Jaylen Brown is such a nightmare in transition. He’s probably the best transition player in basketball.

25 point swing in about 10 minutes. Not too shabby. Our bench is so much better than the sixers'.

Bizarre - put the starters in and a 10 point lead goes to a 2 point lead.

Why are they starting to initiate through Brown again?! This team is going to piss away a dynasty if they can’t figure out who the point guards are.
Now White and Brogdon out of the game.

MJ and Kobe didn’t win championships because they became better players. They started winning championships when the coach began running offense that accentuated their strengths as play finishers.

It must be nice to be Embid, drive and just throw away the ball because they will give him two free ones at the line, smh. That's awful NBA awful.
