2022 Playoffs Round 1, Game 5: Raptors @ 76ers, Mon April 25, 8:00pm EST, SN

Actually their 'best' defensive wing didn't help much and was actually an offensive liability.
Too bad he can't play in Toronto.
So i guess their rotation will change a bit.

Thybulle hasn't played in a week. The rust was there. Whatever defense he brought didn't matter, he was a massive liability.

good point

[G__Deane]

Nah. The formula is on point.

No argument there, it worked well tonight. But Nurse doesn't sit still

[Kagemusha]

What's Philly's counter?

Philly in 5

Raps in 7!

What a difference a day makes.

Was just thinking the same thing.

As you said ---

They can smell blood.

Someone from media asking Nick if the high minutes through the season is paying off now. Nick laughs and jokes in a sly way that it was conditioning for the playoffs.

Raps in 7!

This was the coaching gap we were waiting to see. Nick adjusted and has them stumped for 2 games now. Almost 3, but MVP Embiid showed up in Game 3.

Imagine being Doc Rivers right about now.

I think the management is preparing the firing letter right now, it will be delivered after game 7.

[saints91]

We still haven’t seen the GTj heater game, I hope it’s game 6

[RaptorsVictim]

it sad but this series needed size now that fred is out the rotations now make sense. the 76ers are getting the looks we WANT to get !!!!

It is not only about the rotation, it is about playing an integrated basketball, you have to do all things in the game whether it is offence or defence or bringing up the ball. At any time of the game, we have at least 4 players who can do that.

[GOLDBLUM]

Raps starters can go 40 mins a game, Philly players...not so much. Those guys are getting worn down more and more as the series continues and Raps are cranking it up.
