The Sixers won a nailbiter tonight against the Toronto Raptors, 100-93. Here is somewhat of a running diary, quarter-by-quarter, to serve as your recap.
Q1: Joel Embiid is back after missing Sunday’s “game” against Cleveland with back tightness. Tony Brothers is taking a night off from being the Grinch who stole Christmas to officiate tonight’s game. Very decisive pick-and-roll by Tobias nets him a layup. I despise Aron Baynes. Excellent start from Tobias, with nine of the Sixers’ first 11 points. Shake Milton subs in for Danny Green with 4:44 left. Embiid scores his first points on a 3-pointer after a jab-step.
