So the Sixers had to go without Embid on the road against the Nets who gave them fits with Embid in Game 1. It didn’t seem like a good fit. It also reminded me how much I dislike Greg Monroe as a basketball Center. He’s late on pretty much every single defensive rotation, then when he does get there he maybe half-heartedly throws up a hand feebly, but there’s no jumping. I almost yearn for Okafor to be back standing there disinterestedly instead. Still the Sixers steamrolled the Nets, regaining home court advantage in the series.
Oh yeah, the Phillies also played.
