Theis better not be opening the 2nd half!

To be fair to Theis, he is kind-of getting screwed in having to take on Embiid during the only time of the game where he isn't tired. He did seem lost out there, though. Even on offense, passing on two super-wide open 3s and double clutching (and then short arming) another.

Anyway, great 1st half by Tatum and Kemba. I knew we just had to weather Philly's storm and then combat it with our own strengths. Let's hope we keep hitting shots like we did in the 2nd and continue playing that stifling D.

Tatum's new short floater has been beautiful in this bubble.

Embiid short on two shots and already walking up the floor.  I hope he's already completely exhausted.

Oh come on.  Embiid hacked the hell out of Brown on that layup.  Need a whistle on that.

Good finish though.

So, yeah, fairly certain this white re has money on the 76ers winning. How he swallows his whistle on some of these plays is mind-blowing.

And then a cheap foul for Embiid. Yeah, incompetent.

Why does Brad EVER have Theis out there on Embiid? He stands no chance.
