Listen, you need a break from the Sixers until Friday and I have just the thing you need. Tuesday night’s TNT games, wait for it... without the Sixers!
Joel Embiid had a big performance vs. Houston but wasn’t his usual self defensively. And had some huge missed free throws and turnovers down the stretch. James Harden returned but left us wondering if he wasn’t ready to do so. He perhaps was too ambitious, trying to stick it to his old fans in Houston, reverting to hero ball that worked when he was two steps quicker. Tobias Harris was scorching hot, but Doc Rivers drew up the game-winning shot for Harden, who couldn’t buy one.
