Jump Ball.

Sixers, 1st.and 4th.

[BelmontShore]

Embiid with 12 so far in the 1st, 2 mins left.

[Gennosuke]

This is looking like another 3-quarter game for Embiid. He needs to get all the points he can before the 4th quarter comes around.

[Gennosuke]

Looks like Maxey's got his stroke back.

[BelmontShore]

Hahaha. Shit. Maxey drills a 2nd straight 3 and they turn out the lights.

[BelmontShore]

This is looking like another 3-quarter game for Embiid. He needs to get all the points he can before the 4th quarter comes around.

Embiid is getting close to 3 full games of rest off of missed 4th Q minutes in blowouts where he's scored 30+ in less than 30 minutes played. I think this would be his 8th.

[BelmontShore]

It's a shame Reed can only get the minutes Embiid doesn't play. He shows some really good stuff and he needs more time to be totally comfortable in his offensive bag.

There is a way to have him play PF minutes but Nurse just won't do it. He can hit corner 3s better than Tucker could, he can also play the dunker spot with Embiid up top.

[BelmontShore]

THIS is the 2nd half of a back to back?

You serious, Clark?

Sixers stomping the Hornets, 73-44, halftime.

[BelmontShore]

Holy hell. The cringe on these halftime shows.
