I expect them to go out meekly.

will be an interesting offseason with only Maxey and Embiid set to return.

Embiid is playing with about half his usual athleticism and Nurse is not doing the team any favors by trotting out the same stale lineups over and over.

Only a six point deficit at halftime, but does not look promising so far.

Tobias grabs the rebound dribbles down the court and then settles for a short jumper that he bricks, leading to Knicks' 3ball on the other end.

If that were Council, he would've driven to the hoop and finished or gotten fouled.

Maxey having a heckuva game so far, the major reason the Sixers are competing.

Bad pass by Batum. Had Maxey for a breakaway layup and overthrew him.

Then the Sixers turn the ball over on their next possession and the Knicks score for a 3pt lead.

Can't have this kind of sloppy play in the 4th quarter.

Maxey misses two free throws. He is gassed.

The Hield trade is now an official disaster. Three 2nd round picks for a player who was unplayable in the playoffs.

Wow! Maxey with 7 pts in the final 30 seconds to force overtime.
