The Hawks are thoroughly dissecting the Sixers

I looked at the score 42-27 after the 1st and then saw that the Sixers shot almost perfect from the floor and it took me a second to compute what was going on. 9 TOs, wow! It's not as of the Hawks are that good defensively. They were 18th this year.

They can't get stops on one side and they keep turning it over on the other. Credit to ATL, but how is Philly playing this bad?

execution in half court offense. sixers can not sit tobias and embiid at the same time. an all bench lineup is not going to work for philly. hawks adjusted last series and have bog or trae on the floor at all times.

12 turnovers for sixers. They are just giving the game away plus not playing defense.

Ujiri must be laughing watching MIA, LAL and PHI go up in flames because they wouldn't trade bench players for a floor general like Lowry.

they look legit shook. and they don't have a settling presence. like trae right now is running a tight ship - no jitters - totally in control. the hawks look like a vet team. meanwhile sixers are all over the place. they need a floor general and they dont' have one on the roster.

Just one quarter but you have to like the start for Atlanta.

For folks thinking PHI's wings were gonna shut Trae down, may wanna look at the games he's had against Simmons in the past.

I think Philly's got a problem...

And it starts with Nate McMillan 's well organized system.

Sorry Doc.

Bruh, I think Sixers are just unlucky right now, just a weird random chain of flukey turnovers. Wouldn't draw too many conclusions about their quality from those turnovers.
