It's been a freethrow game. Whoever makes the most freethrows wins the game, apparently.

Well it looks like we are going to win this but we sure as hell didn't deserve with how we played in the second half.

That was some shooting performance we put forth tonight. We're just lucky the Sixers are about as abysmal as we are

1 field goal throughout an entire quarter, I've never heard of that. Very unsatisfying win, barely reached 90 points after a 35 point 1st quarter, once again got severely outplayed in the 2nd half. i'm not impresed.

That's incredible. Our second halves are never pretty.

We're going to have to match the max with Pek if he keeps playing like this.

I'll take an ugly win over a pretty loss any day, but wow, I'm getting really tired of ugly wins.

I think a lot of the 2nd half had to do with horrible reffing.

Absolutely killed the pace by putting the teams in the bonus early and that played into the 76ers hands, too bad they couldn't shoot FTs for ****.

The reason of 4th quarter field gold draught is some kind of "Love, Budinger lacking exhaustion"(who together should have a really high field goal attempts) + "play athletic CJ Adelman please"(who had energy of whole bench and starters together at the moment)

That's not saying much. Rubio has a pin head. :lol:

The defense was getting super physical in the 2nd half and they tried to take control w/ some cheap calls. But the game slowed down so much with calls on every possession, so I'm sure they were trying to let some stuff go or the game would've been 5 hours long, but some of the stuff they were letting go was pretty egregious. At that point they just lost control trying to balance moving the game along, but not able to let all the grabbing and hacking go. I was kinda mad at some of that stuff at the time, but it went both ways at least. Philly is a hard team to ref, they play really physical defense and slash a lot on offense.
