[Gennosuke]

Heat lose to the Pacers.

Sixers are now tied with Miami (record-wise) for the 7th seed.

[Gennosuke]

After playing solid defense and building up a 14 pt lead, Sixers go through a bad stretch on both ends of the floor and now trail by 2.

[Gennosuke]

Sixers are just chucking up 3balls and missing while SA scores on the other end.

[Gennosuke]

This is where you miss Lowry's leadership on the floor. Payne is 1 - 7 and not getting others involved in the offense.

[Gennosuke]

76ers are understandably reluctant to challenge Wemby in the paint, but the outside shots aren't falling.

[BelmontShore]

Outside of Maxey,, Oubre and a bit of Reed, no one is doing anything on offense. Bamba, Payne, Batum and the rest are bricking wide open shots.

[BelmontShore]

Can't be giving up 40 in a quarter, especially to a team as bad as the Spurs.

[Gennosuke]

Maxey is almost single-handedly keeping the team within striking distance, but he could use a little help.
