not an ideal matchup with Jimmy/Spoelstra but the Sixers should win. Scary Terry being out is big i think.

Seven turnovers for the Sixers in the 1st quarter so far. Need to clean that up if they want to win this.

Maxey and Hield are completely flummoxed by the zone and no one knows how to feed Embiid. They keep trying straight passes rather than throwing it high where only he can catch it.

Terrible end to the quarter.

This is now scary.

Very sloppy ball handling

Nurse has to earn his money and get the athletes on the floor.

Batum and Harris are unplayable vs hyper athletes.

He's gotta get Reed, Oubre, Council and other athletes on the floor with Embiid.

Hyper aggressive athletes who are all ball hawks.

You have to have guys who can attack the zone on angles.

Penetrate with the dribble and kick when they collapse.

That sequence was Tobias' Sixers' career in a nutshell. Missed three bunnies in a row.

Spoelstra is making Nurse look like Doc Rivers. Sixers need to adjust in the 2nd half or they will get blown out.
