Series Thread: 4) Philadelphia 76ers vs. 5) Toronto Raptors

[fightinfunbags]

It's going to be important for Philly to establish themselves early tonight against an undermanned Raptors team that will be forced to shuffle its lineups due to injuries. I will be curious to see what they try do to do stop Maxey, they had no answer for him.

And they had one of their better perimeter defenders FVV on him. The next best option would have been Barnes but he’s been ruled out.

90 seconds in and we are getting chippy

Raptors are off to a spirited start but Philly needs to keep grinding inside, they are simply too small and too shorthanded.

Harden and Embiid doing Harden and Embiid things to get these guys in early foul trouble LOL

 

[Sparhawk]

Why doesn't FVV take every shot after he hit his first two threes???

 

[bksballer89]

Refs calling everything on toronto right now

7 fouls to 0 right now

Embild is a flopping goof

I was just about to post

7 fouls to 0 and 12 fts to none

Vleet got that thing on automatic

 

[Iggloo]

Thybulle needs to stay on his man, FVV is their most legit perimeter threat, don't let him heat up.

Impossible to play basketball if you are allowing a player to shoot nearly 15 fts in a quarter of basketball

 

[Iggloo]

Hard to play a small-ball lineup against Embiid in the playoffs. But the Raps are playing well offensively tonight, that's a difference.
