They are afraid to play us. Want to save their energy for the Bucks. That's a little tongue in cheek. But only sorta.

If you are the Bucks and you face the Suns and Bucks back to back, you are probably not really confident you are going to win both games. Worst thing to do is beat yourself up against the Suns and then lose to the Bucks too. Might be better to take the loss against the Suns, let your players heal another day, and then go for the win against the Bucks--a conference opponent.

Thinkin out loud here.
Ill take any gift they're willing to give us. Still would've liked to see DA and Embid head to head. Da needs those kind of matchups for development.

I'm hoping Saric plays well tonight. Suns really need him to round into form.

Bridges is making 76ers pay with corner threes.

I've been officiating the game from my recliner, Embiid has now fouled out three times. We should have brought our own refs.

Payne isn’t playing well and the second squad seems to be overpassing

Saric finishes a drive plus gets the free throw.
