Ennis playing above average has kept them in this game.

That it's only single digits is impressive for Philly.

Siakam is unreal. Honestly, if Siakam and Kawhi stay in Toronto, I have no doubt they will remain a top 3 team in the East.

If just Siakam stays they will still probably top 4ish.

Kawhi and Siakam at 17 points each on 7/9 shooting each. In the first quarter.

Toronto would be a better tune up before the Finals.

Don't see why Toronto isn't matching Embiid's minutes with Gasol.

Possibly they preserve his minutes for the seccond half, if needed. For now they are very mobile in offense and want to push the pace. Also Embiid has not given them problems yet.

They are doing more than fine.

By the way, one way to take Embiid out of the game is to push the pace.

Sixers having starters in to start the 2nd quarter has to throw off teams a bit. Specially in the playoffs.
