This is a good early test. Sixers have looked good but Portland is terrible and the Raptors with a new coach are mediocre. Granted, they should have beaten the Bucks but for the officiating.

[BelmontShore]

Keep in mind, the Raptors beat the Bucks pretty badly. Bucks couldn't handle their athleticism.

[BelmontShore]

It's so nice to be able to actually like your team.

[BelmontShore]

Ball's up.

Embiid still terrible on tips.

Sixers, 2nd and 3rd.

[BelmontShore]

Up and down start, looking at 2nd half foul trouble with some sloppy defense from Harris and Oubre.

[BelmontShore]

Sloppy turnover prone offense is letting the Suns stay in this game. Should have well over 30 and let them close the 1st only down 25-24. 6 turnovers, missed bunnies, offensive fouls bad shot selection.

[BelmontShore]

Been screaming for an athletic wing for a decade.

Oubre is gonna blow up in Philly.

What a signing.

[BelmontShore]

Oubre with 17 in the 1st half.

Not too shabby a replacement for Tucker, huh.

They'd be in real trouble without him in this 1st half. 12-13 TOs, bad shooting, offensive fouls.

[Gennosuke]

Melton has been pretty horrible on the offensive end to start the season. He still has trouble finishing around the rim and his 3pt shot has been off target.
