I just wish that Julius was healthy for this. Sixers would not be able to defend Brunson with Julius on the court.

would do a lot for my nerves to win this game. but this is going to be a very hard game to win. 6ers are playing really great ball. not only is embiid looking better we have done nothing to slow down maxey. also, even if mitch plays he isn't gong to be 100. last two games they have controlled. we were fortunate to win game 2.

hope we can limit maxey and frustrate embiid. Also be nice if Brunson gets hot. but i'm not confident in all that happening today. thinking we are going to be heading back home level.

I can see it going the other way too. that we lose control and things get real ugly.

Its a chance for real fans who may not be able to afford the insane prices at MSG or just don't want to pay insane prices, to go drive 2ish hours down to Philly and go see them and cheer them. It being so close, and the price being so cheap, its cheaper to go to a game in Philly and pay for gas or even a ride on Amtrak, than it would be to get into MSG.

Secondary market is loaded with tickets.

Cheapest tickets in MSG is like $450+ or so.

Embiid is so big and strong I don't think our guys could injure him much if they tried lol. He'd have to do another self alley oop.

As long as they don't have another 3rd quarter like shooting spree we have a good chance to win the game.

If we can win the third we can win this game. Just my take.

We can’t let them get momentum in the third and kick your ass like they did last game.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

You can literally stay overnight at the Ritz Carlton and get floor seats in Philly for cheaper than lower-bowl tickets at MSG.

And you can get tickets in Philadelphia BEHIND THE KNICKS BENCH! You can never get that at the Garden for a price you can actually afford.
