With an unusual starting lineup for the Philadelphia 76ers, the first quarter was a mess, to say the least. A timeout called by Brett Brown and a coaches challege made by David Fizdale caused the first quarter to absolutely drag on.
Like many teams we play, the New York Knicks looked like a squad of Steph Currys as they shot 5-9 from beyond in the first quarter. Norvel Pelle backed up Joel Embiid tonight but got off to a rocky start. He committed a personal foul as soon as he came in and got posterized by Julius Randle soon after.
