This game is tight! It's going to be ugly at times. I'm into this one! This is fun.

I'm impressed with the length we have now between Batum and Covington. We didn't have this against them last year.

Both teams shooting poorly from 3, but still think we are matching up better than last year.

Team is looking better without harden, 65! Wins!

Gotta say Embiid is playing much better defense, it was terrible in the first games, I think he is buying into the Nurse system.

I blame Melton for that one honestly. Don’t indulge Tobias when he’s trying to post up Tatum.

Tatum would be a great third star on our team if he accepted being a C&S type player. What could have been…

Where are the cutters Embiid can throw over the top of Holiday to from the point.

Yeah I hope Nurse can get into Embiid's head and simplify the offense for him, because it will be crucial in Playoffs.
