Maxey is a late scratch with an illness.

This is liable to be a shit show with 2 starting guards who have no ideamehats going on with teammates or plays.

Wow. Nurse just said that Payne came in and knew the name of every one of the 76ers' plays, already.

As we thought, defense is an issue.

On offense, some bad luck with shots going half way down and popping out.

Some encouraging things but some discouraging with it. It's nice to see increased dribble drive ability, the 3s will fall, there've been too many in and outs. But the lack of defensive awareness is troubling. The Hawks are all over 76ers' 3pt shooters, they're up on them, not giving them space. 76ers' defenders are late to recognize and later to react to Hawks' 3pt shooters getting there too late to affect the shot. They should be better at it with their athleticism.

Harris is such an embarrassment.

Totally invisible even with Maxey and Embiid out.

He's dribbling out of open 3 looks, not asserting himself and is lost on defense.
