Dissecting the Sixers’ OT loss to the Atlanta Hawks; Tyrese Maxey’s 35 points, Tobias Harris’ 32.

Morning I’m here I’m in my uh hotel room getting ready to get out of here in like 30 minutes it’s weird I’m doing this podcast and after I finish this podcast I’mma like do a beline to uh hop get this Uber that scheduled and then take

Uh the First Flight of the day back to Philly but before we do that I want to talk to y’all about last night’s game I’ve been thinking I mean I’ve been going back and forth back and forth back and forth you know wondering or not if

This was a bad loss now what I mean by that they should have won the game I mean the Sixers in the clutch the Sixers had several opportunities to do something and they didn’t they they they just couldn’t come through in the clutch I mean you can say

There was a time when Maxi got stripped they say he got shot blocked but look like he got stripped uh with 1.5 seconds left in regulation then there was like them being outscored or the Hawks closing out the game in overtime on the 10-0 run you know the Sixers you know they they

Missed their last five shots and had a critical uh turnover in that point there was a time in the in the fourth quarter where Maxie and and Tobias just kept missing bunnies like I mean like wow it was crazy so you look at it and you say to yourself

Like Sixers had every opportunity to win this game and they lost so they left some they they left some golden opportunities they just blew it but then you say another thing is now they’re two and seven without MB which isn’t good they have a three game Los

Streak which is the highest of the Season or the longest of the season right so there’s a lot of things that were you say that’s negative but the fact that Joel wasn’t there uh the fact that Tobias Harris for the most part played extremely well the fact that

Mount Maxi was able to bounce back in the second half and have a solid game I really don’t know if I should be critical or if I should praise them for how they played and again the weird part is I think that I need to be critical a little bit is

Because the Hawks with that win are 15 and 21 they’re still one of the worst teams in the east right but the Sixers just were able to Prevail and able to win so you I don’t know what to do now when you look at it you know Kelly UB struggled I mean Kelly

UB uh shot three from 11 from the field uh he had seven points he was a minus 8 he was 0 for three on threes right um You Look at Marcus Morris he had 17 points he was four for n shooting three of eight now there was

One point where he three for eight on threes there was a point in the first half where he was three or five from threes and he shot four or six in the in the first half so it seems like in the second half he didn’t have that

Production that he had right to carry over now you can look at that two ways though because there was a point where I felt like in the third quarter that I was shocked that Marcus didn’t really play that much because in the second quarter he was basically the guy I mean

He was the guy who kept them in the game but then when the third quarter came it was kind of like they went away from him and I’m just trying to get it so in the third quarter what he did is he played 3 minutes and 16 seconds he had two points

He missed his only shot shot attempt which was a free he did make two foul shots but I don’t know like Kelly UB played six minutes 6 minutes 39 seconds in the third quarter I felt like Marcus Morris deserved more minutes I mean just because he was hot in the first half I

Mean before maxi came alive in the third quarter with nine points on four for six shooting it was all about Tobias Harris and Marcus Morris so with that being said I felt like maybe they could have gone to him a little bit more now the one thing is mooma played well better

Than Paul Reed so Mo Boma actually was the guy who got denied in overtime um you know moamba had three blocks um they basically utilize his length and everything like that but um you know I I don’t know man I just don’t now the thing is the Sixers don’t seem to be

Paranoid upset just that Tyrese Maxi was like listen we got to focus on winning like as long as we focus on doing what we got to do we’ll be fine um Nick baton is like look are we gonna turn this thing around teams go through this you

Know we got a lot of basketball left to play and it’s easy to take that approach right it’s extremely easy to take that approach based off of with the things we talked about and be not playing um guys not being able to get you know you know

Sleep or whatever or or things like that other guys coming off injury so it’s it’s easy for you to come back and say that right that is going to be great but then you say to yourself now but you also put yourself in a situation to where it’s

Now Friday’s game of Sacramento is that become a must-win game I mean do you have to win and then let’s face it like if you don’t win if you win that game but then you lose on Monday night against Houston right do you say uh team isn’t

Really playing well so I feel like right now yes it’s early but I also feel like the Sixers are putting themselves in a must-win situation like I believe that they have to win this next game in order for them to um you know feel good about

Themselves I think if they lose the next game I think it could get a little critical because see here’s the thing you know let’s we can’t exclude talk and think about how Nick Nur was saying hey look no matter who’s out there we all have to come out there and bust our tail

And play guys can’t use excuses about players not being on the floor well typically when you hear a coach say that it’s kind of like he’s like y we we need to step up our play right so when I heard that it’s kind of like yeah the Sixers need to step up

Their play so I feel like if they lose again you know get a little rough for it could it could I mean not rough but it’s like a lot of the stuff that they were believed in earlier you know some guys may start questioning things not saying they questioning the coach but they

Might just question certain things because they’re looking at it like yo we’ve been we’ve been busting our tail we’re doing this and we’re and we’re struggling right so after this little break I want to talk to y’all about Marcus moris getting it the key to the city uh today one

Around um you know I I I got there and you know come over first I was talking to Jaden Springer you know uh chatting a little bit with him um Paul read and then I over there Marcus and we’re like talking a little bit and he’s like yeah man you know I’m

Getting the keys to the city tomorrow and I’m like huh I’m like yeah okay what’s it just joking I said then I said like Philly he said yeah and then he was a joking with me saying like yeah you know this is you know this my city you

Know you know going on and on and on but the thing is what happens is Marcus is getting it recognized by councilman um Isaiah Thomas because of you know basically what he does like you know not only is he um a role model on the court

And the things that he’s doing on the court it’s kind of like you know Marcus is also uh does a lot of stuff for um with his does a lot of Community work for kids um and and underprivileged kids and and just kids all together via Sports and

Other things in the in the community of Philadelphia now this says a lot because he and his brother Marie the twin brothers Marcus and Marquee never forgot where they came from right they all I mean when when Marcus plays or when he starts it’s one of those things where

They introduce him from North Philly right now that’s something that they do for him his brother K Larry all these Jokers from North Philly like they want to make let everybody know where they from and that’s what he does and the thing is this is a great honor a huge honor

Because this is a guy who you know he grew up on around Erie Avenue you know he reps that hard but I look at him and I have to admire him because you know I knew him when he was in high school I knew he was in 11th grade he was funny

Though because I couldn’t really tell them to apart but the one thing that I did know is that how I knew who they were because he was always the one that would speak to me his brother would just like you know keep it moving but he would always

Turn around like hey what’s up now I’m talking about they were some tall young boys back then but now you look at them and last night I was watching them interact with fans during the game you you you you you you listen to his conversations with people in the locker

Room and you get the gist that he’s very beloved like the fans love him you know and we’re not talking about just black fans um we’re talking about all different races they all like love them they all love him uh a team he’s a a veteran leader you know you look over

There and you see on the bench you see him giving Paul Reed instructions he’s telling other guys what to do you know he’s he gets in there he’s taking charge when he’s on the court you know he’s not like taking charge meaning like trying

To take over a game but what he does is he he whatever his role is for that night he fulfills it but the fact that he won this honor I’m not shocked I’m not surprised um and the great thing about it is when he did it when he when he

When he told me he won it he was shocked because he was shocked but he wasn’t shocked he wasn’t shocked because of the stuff that he does but he was shocked because he W it’s weird I know that’s a weird dynamic but it’s in other words he

Knows the stuff that he does will probably get him recognized by people but he’s not doing it for that so it’s one of those things where he did it from the kindness of his heart but he didn’t do it to to get an award so that’s why he’s a little

Shocked that he got the award because this wasn’t something that he he set out to do right but at the same time you know this is what he’s doing what he always wanted to right this is what and he knows he’s putting a lot of time and effort into it

So yeah I a mad props to him you know he’s been doing he’s he’s been doing a great thing and and and and all that so you know mad props to uh Marcus Morris um you know I I wish him a lot of luck family over everything that’s his organization him and his

Brother uh Mari and you know just keep it moving and he even said he’s representing his thing uh he’s representing him and his brother tomorrow now his brother plays for the Dallas Mavericks so it’s one of those things where he couldn’t do it it would have been nice probably if they

Would have waited until the Dallas Mavericks came to Philly and then they could probably do something you know what I mean with both of them but you know it’s weird you never know like Markus as good as he is and as good as I think the Sixers be foolish to do so you

Never know he could probably be traded by then the trade deadline is early next month but I think they would be crazy to do it but you never know right so when we get back I want to talk a little bit about Tobias Harris um I want to talk a

Little bit about what I do but I right now I want to talk to y’all about the Jay’s case the Jay’s case is a pack of five different antibiotics to treat a long list of bacterial illnesses including UTI respiratory infections sinuses skin infections among others this stuff could happen to any of us

Are National shows covering every league go to locked on sports today on YouTube and subscribe to the first ever National Sports 247 streaming channel so today was or yesterday rather was Tobias Harris’s first game back well make it like first game back well what he did is

He did it technically was his first game back but all he did was he missed one game like he he got injured against the Knicks late in the third quarter and what happened is he didn’t he didn’t return to the game he jammed his ankle he didn’t return to the

Game and then from there he didn’t play in in Saturday’s game right so he didn’t play in the second end of a backtack but yesterday last night he finished with 32 points which is one point shy of his season high right he shot 12 for 24 he

Was one for two on threes he was seven seven seven for seven from the foul line he had a team High uh 10 rebounds he had um four assists he had one block and like I said he was a um had 32 points so he played well you know there was times

In the fourth quarter though where I looked at Tobias and he played well but I felt like he was rushing shots a little bit in the fourth but for the most part he played well like he really did like you know you look at it he shot

Four for nine in the first half he ended up with what shooting uh 12 for 24 so you know things worked out I mean he you know he got better as not should to say better but everything was fine now in the fourth quarter this is the thing he had four he

Had 10 points in the fourth quarter on four for seven shooting seven of his rebounds came in the fourth so he was balling you know he really was so you got to give him Credit Now the thing is in overtime I believe he shot one for three

He did he shot one for three in overtime but you know I felt he I felt he looked good now there was times where he missed bunnies he was one for three he had two points he was a negative seven but then also Tyrese Maxi was also one for three he

Had three points um uh you know uh who else Kelly UB was one for two Nicholas Paton missed his only shot that was that huge three um and Patrick Beverly missed the three so that’s what it is that’s what it was so I liked what Tobias did I felt like he played

Well social media social media he missed the bunny he got his shot blocked time so people were real critical of that but I felt like he played well you know now I just want to tell yall like I wish I could show y’all outside but I have to turn my computer

Around but it’s like I said it’s like early in the morning it’s 3:30 in the morning um I’m looking now at my phone not to be rude but the guy is telling me that he’s downstairs so I’m about to get out of here um I’ll have a podcast tomorrow

Hopefully John will be back but you know it’s one of them things I just felt like it was important for me to get y’all something quick fast in a hurry um after the game um um you know so I and the reason why I didn’t have it right after

The game is because I kept like going back and forth on this whole thing like should I is this a bad is this a bad game for the Sixers or you know yachty yachty it was just a lot of different things but hey they got to work on a

Couple things but it’s still too early to Panic it’s still too early to hit the panic button it really is so they’ll get it together and we’ll just see how that goes but I do expect them to get there together I want to thank y’all for

  1. All these 76ers podcast pundants like to sh!t on Doc Rivers to make NN look good; but the genius coach lost this game! He challenged a play that was an obvious foul. If he had kept the challenge, he would've been able to challenge the play when Maxey clearly got fouled! When you see Morris hot, you KEEP GIVING Him MINUTES, (not nail him to the bench)!

  2. The refs cost us this game. Maxey between the legs spin , caused contact by Young. No Call. Tre Young tries to blow by Maxey barely makes any contact, whistle blown. Maxey fouls out. .. smh

  3. The hawks are terrible. if you can’t beat the hawks without Embiid😮, Come on Now. This is a wasted season then. Last year the Sixers won in the playoffs without embiid.

  4. Man Paul Reed ain't worth a dam! Who. Told him he's 1 option in scoring ? He didn't make one pass to BATUM it's crazy

  5. They didn't want it! Just say it man. I seen loose balls that hawks wanted more . Boxing out don't exist it's CRAZY! MAXEY can't make foul shots . Your letting them off is enabling poor play

  6. Mannnnn. Stop it! Teams do not respect this team ! The worse part is when you can literally see the scouting report on them playing out ! Every game perimeter shooters having best games against them! Wayyyy to much help defensive. Zero rim protection no grit. You can tell them players don't know their role!! Paul Reed is like oil in the water !!! He don't pass like he should he drops his head and try to make moves his body can't

  7. You wayyyy to nice about it bro. I don't know if you got relationships in the locker room or what but we ain't blind! We know ball. MAXEY a defensive liability. Is perimeter defense is non existent and teams are exploring that

  8. Nurse and the refs blew that game… Nurse decision making and rotations in that game was terrible.

  9. hard to watch the refs control these games. trae gets these nonsense calls where he creates the bump and flies off to the side… whistle… maxey doesn't get s* unless someone actually punches him in the face. also so sick of tobi missing bunnies. such low energy in the paint.

  10. This was a bad loss ,I’m tired of excuses for this team’s losses. They aren’t a good enough team yes they are entertaining but that’s it. They can’t find a way to beat some of the bad teams. Without Embiid their doom, but they are going to be with out him often because he’s not built for Nick Nurse coaching style no fault of Nurse but Embiid just not tough enough physically for the way Nurse would like to use him. Nick Nurse requires guys to be durable and able to play a lot of minutes in stretches. Like I stated in the beginning they are entertaining to watch but to think without out a trade to get a sharp shooter which really is all they’re missing. They will not get past the second round they will only be entertaining to watch.

  11. Don’t focus on Maxey fouling out they still had a chance to win focus on what happened after he fouled out nobody could finish the job and I’m talking about Tobais Harris they need a real shot creator a bucket getter

  12. Loses are important. They show a team's needs. The 76ers clearly need a backup point guard who can shoot and defend. The 76ers need a power forward with the emphasis on power and athleticism & shooting.. A consistent 3 point shooter off the bench. All the teams ahead of the 76ers have those 3 factors. The 76ers need to address these needs to be truly a contender.
