Some rotation players know that Josh's minutes have to come from somewhere. It wasnt Cams'. Will be interesting to see how they respond, before Hart officially becomes part of the team.

Better yet.
How about actually heading into the 2nd Quarter up by 10+ points (and go from there).
Make it difficult on the 76ers (for a change) and from start to finish too.
Not up the double digits I wanted after 1.
But.
We are up 8 Points (36-28).
And Jalen Brunson 20 1st Q Points @ 8/10 was โกโกโกโกโก
Let's take a 15-17 point lead into halftime we need another big 2nd Quarter here.
RJ getting back on track tonight.

I'm tired of the nail biters too but Sixers are third in the East on their home court. If we're 1 up at the end I'm good!
Not the type of 2nd Q I wanted to see 29-31 (-2) after an awesome 1st Q 36-28 (+8).
Nonetheless...
65-59 @ halftime (KNICKS).
IQ/RJ/Julius/Grimes all played really well and I loved the Defense of Sims on Harden.
But Jalen Brunson was a madman possessed 20/4/4 off 8/11.
As long as we don't let Joel Embiid go off for another 19+ 2nd half we should win this game.
We really need to come out 3rd Q and play with all out fight in order to give us at least a 12+ point lead heading into the 4th. This 3rd Q is extremely important because Philadelphia is almost impossible to close out in the 4th @ home.
From up 12 to now down 1?
Because of a 13-0 76ers run?
Unbelievable.
Harden gives Brunson a forearm shiver and then bitches about the call...seriously?

Man if a Knick did the same thing to Harden it would be called a flagrant 1
Up 93-92 heading into the 4th.
And I'm not happy about that 3rd Q metal breakdown. Allowing Philly to go on a 13-0 run is unacceptable.
Knicks better get it together early 4th Q because Philadelphia has a lot of momentum and confidence right now.
Grimes sitting in the corner alone for about 5 seconds...by the time Randle see's him, his man has come out to him...Randle gets the ball back & launches a missed 3.
Randle does many good things, but you have to show your trust in teammates.
76ers 100-95 lol all you can do is laugh.
Philly took over this game on a 13-0 3rd Q run unbelievable.
Randle begging for a tech
Knicks dont know what to do offensively
