They didn't play with any sense of urgency in the 4th when the 76ers made their run, like they were expecting the 76ers to just give up
Bjorkgren too deserved the L. Brogdon looked visibly gassed in the 4th quarter. Doug got into foul trouble early. Instead of calling upon the rest of the bench, he put Brogdon back in
This should be a wake up call to Bjorkgren that he needs to develop the roster. Playing a tight 8 man roster (Goga only played a paltry 5 mins, even though he wasn't even playing badly) is not sustainable. His over reliance on the team's workhorses (Domas, Brogdon, Justin) is going to be detrimental in the long run. Domas and Brogdon are #2 and #3 in the league in mpg, for crying out loud
