Philly’s strategy with Cam Thomas in the game: put Cam in the pick-and-roll with James Harden.
Nets are doubling on that right now. – 8:14 PM

Melton’s had the ball in his hands more during this Harden/bench shift. He missed at the rim a bit ago, but drew a foul this time. – 8:12 PM

All of that drama and the Sixers are up 4 after one.
Big plot lines at the moment:
—Maxey foul trouble
—Nets mixing it up with Embiid (and Embiid getting sucked into it) – 8:06 PM

Sixers end the first quarter on a 21-9 run, take a 32-28 lead into the second quarter. Tyrese Maxey led the way with 12 points on 5-7 shooting. Harris and Harden both have 5 each. Embiid with just 2 on 1-3 shooting.
Sixers shot 59.1% from the field and had just 1 TO in the 1st. – 8:05 PM

End of the first quarter: Sixers lead the Nets 32-28. A lot of drama (haven’t typed that since before the trade deadline), but strong starts from Clax, Dinwiddie and Bridges. Nets could use some offense from the Cams and DFS. – 8:04 PM

Smart game plan by Brooklyn to step over, shove, and scrap with Embiid. Vaugh has used a bunch of ring, hitting and octagon metaphors throughout games 1-2. Surprised Sixers weren’t a little more prepared for the scrappy underdog tactics. – 8:01 PM

Nets are closing out way heavy on the shooters like Maxey/Melton. Letting them attack and get easy penetration into the lane on offense. Can’t do that against especially Maxey. He might be on his way to a big one tonight with how aggressively they’re pushing out onto shooters. – 7:57 PM

Doc Rivers said James Harden and Joel Embiid lead the league in missed calls on them. Adds “it’s not a Sixers’ stat, too.” Asked where he got it from, he didn’t give us a specific source. – 6:09 PM

Vaughn: “I think we’re the only team in the playoffs that doesn’t have an All-Star or former All-Star on the roster, of all the teams that’s playing the playoffs. This team is doing a hell of a job & trying to get a win tonight.” (BTW, Ben Simmons has 3 berths, but is out). #Nets – 5:56 PM

Jacque Vaughn said everyone who played in Game 2 has extensive playoff experience. Points to it as a reason why he’s stuck with Royce O’Neale despite his shooting woes in the series. – 5:56 PM

A fresh round of James Harden to Houston discussion/reporting/rumors has popped up.
To which I say this — yes, there is a ton riding on this playoff run for Philly. And that’s something the Sixers have known from the very first day of the season

Woj does not believe any team has more at stake this postseason than the Sixers.
“There may be change (even) if they go to the Finals. James Harden’s future is very unclear in Philadelphia. Houston is very much in play for him.” pic.twitter.com/2dOsZLDzmT – 2:21 PM

Brooklyn has gone to more five-out against the Sixers, which should give them a preview for Boston (should they advance). Embiid makes a great rotation below, but he gives up a goaltend because Harden gets beat.
