Guess the Sixers are going to get that late 3.

They review made close shot clock violations at the league office - Philly lost 2 points on one last game.

Why were the Sixer fans booing? They counted the 3 and there were cheers and cheers then there were loud boos again?

Whoa. Philly gets the basket now. Odd how they can do that for some things they get wrong but not others ...

It‘s like AI instructed to announce a game by framing everything as contributing to a positive Philly narrative.
It's not even that she's being very pro-Philly. It's almost like she plans what she is going to say before the game and then just wedges it in regardless of what happens. As opposed to some actual insight in her first few seasons doing games.

I honestly thought he got it off in time. But where was that eye in the sky the time Brogdon threw a pass to the 76ers to seal a game?

Still not quite sure what happened there. Bottom line for a broadcast crew ought to be to at least tell you what happened.
Unless the refs told them (which they usually don't) there's no way for the crew to know

Somewhere there are some gamblers who got jobbed at the end of both quarters in this game.

I mean he probably got that off, tough to complain about it too much. Pretty solid defensive possession to end the half imo.

They're ball handling is a little sketchy when Brogdon is a comlete no-show like this. Melton + Tucker especially have damn good hands, something to watch if MB gets buried in the 2h.

Only 14 buckets for the Sixers. 7-16 from three, but only 7-22 inside the arc,

She definitely goes into a game with a few set points and players she wants to complement.

This game she was going to shoehorn in Doc going small with Melton instead of Tucker, Melton’s willingness to shoot and his rotations, and she was going to talk about how great Embiid was. She was also going to point out that Marcus is grifting for fouls (how she chose just him and didn’t want to lump in Embiid and Harden is…interesting)

The fact that she basically never mentioned Harden was playing terribly really speaks to this

Might be broadcast mix but the Philly crowd sounds sleepy. Surprising considering they're generally psychotic down there.
