@SIChrisMannix
Nets success is now directly tied to KD’s ability to be great. But @Spencer Dinwiddie is really good — and wants to be in Brooklyn. Finney-Smith is another versatile defender the Nets can throw at Tatum/Brown/Harden/Middleton in the playoffs. This team is going to be tough. – 8:27 AM

No lead is safe when it comes to the #Sixers. They blow sizable leads quicker than a 5-year-old blowing candles out on a birthday cake. Sunday was no different.

@ginamizell
When asked about the Kyrie trade, James Harden paused for a few seconds and then said: “It’s a trade that happened.”
Tobias Harris was also short when asked about how that trade could impact the East: “Nobody on the Sixers got traded today, so I don’t care about that.” – 10:31 PM

@DavidEarly
In the Sixers last two losses they:
a) had an 18 point 2nd half lead before allowing a 42-20 run in under 10 min *at home to Orl.*
b) led by 20, and gave up a 17-0 run in under 4 min to NYK. Played some weak 2-3 zone to spark Fournier.
hideous – 9:21 PM

@TommyBeer
Coming into tonight, the Sixers had scored more than 100 points in 29 straight games. The last time they failed they score 100+ was in November.
The Knicks held them to 97. – 9:18 PM


@IanBegley
Playing a night after OT loss, NYK climbs out of early 21-pt hole to beat PHI at MSG. Evan Fournier had 17 pts on 5-8 3pt shooting. He’d been mostly out of rotation but played tonight w/RJ Barrett out. NYK bench was great. Heard execs at @EmpireStateBldg are upset w/the result – 9:12 PM

@TommyBeer
Obi: +17 in 13 mins
iHart: +19 in 25 mins
Fournier: +28 in 23 mins
Deuce: +34 (!!) in 22 mins
Incredible effort from the Knicks reserves tonight. They carried NY to a surprising victory over the Sixers – 9:08 PM

@NYPost_Berman
Great to see 2021 draft pick Miles McBride knock down his 3’s. If he can maintain consistency there, you got something special off the bench because he’s such a team-first guy. – 9:03 PM


@TommyBeer
Every Knicks fan on earth thought NY was gonna blow most of, if not all, that big lead in how 4th quarter
If you say you didn’t assume the worst was coming, you lying lol
It wasn’t if it was gonna happen- it was how would it end up in a one possession game with 10 seconds left – 9:01 PM

@TimBontemps
Final: Knicks 108, 76ers 97.
Rough loss for Philly, which had a 21-point first quarter lead and shot 3-for-16 in the fourth.
And a big win for the Knicks after last night’s heartbreak.
Knicks now a half-game back of Miami for 6th. – 9:01 PM

@KyleNeubeck
Hilarious (maybe not to you) stat:
Montrezl Harrell (-15) and Paul Reed (-14) had the best plus/minus among Sixers bench players tonight.
Horrendous loss. phillyvoice.com/instant-observ… – 9:01 PM

@rich_hofmann
Sixers lose to Knicks, 108-97. They are 34-18.
Poor shooting, turnovers and no rebounding in the second half. Even Embiid (rebounding, turnovers) and Harden (defense) aren’t blameless.
But Doc Rivers loves him some all-bench lineups and got absolutely burned by that tonight. – 9:01 PM


@NBAKrell
New York got quite literally every rebound it wanted in the fourth quarter, when back-to-back legs typically come into play and teams get sluggish.
They simply wiped the Sixers off the court in the execution department. – 9:00 PM

@ginamizell
FINAL: Knicks 108, Sixers 97. Given the way the Sixers have been rolling the last several weeks, every loss feels a bit jarring. But safe to say both 21-point blown leads this week were among the worst of the season. Embiid with 31-14-3.
Up next: Wednesday at Boston. – 8:59 PM



@KeithSmithNBA
How big would the Knicks lead need to be with how little time left before Knicks fans would say “We’re good. It’s over.”? – 8:55 PM

@MichaelVPina
julius randle commits some of the most wild crunchtime turnovers i’ve ever seen. this should be a trackable stat. – 8:55 PM

@TimBontemps
Nice round of applause for Evan Fournier after fouling out. Fournier, who has largely been out of the rotation, had 17 points off the bench with RJ Barrett (illness) unavailable today, as New York is on the verge of a huge win after an OT loss to the Clippers last night. – 8:54 PM

@SBondyNYDN
As the Knicks are about to beat the Sixers, the Garden crowd erupted in a ‘Eagles suck’ chant. – 8:54 PM

@OlehKosel
The Sacramento Kings’ worst defeat of the season was a 20-point loss against the Philadelphia 76ers on Dec. 13.
The Pelicans are up 104-76 after three quarters on the 3rd seed in the West, having led by as many as 34 points. – 8:54 PM


@johnschuhmann
Isaiah Hartenstein is making a bid for First Team All Histrionics. – 8:46 PM



@DavidEarly
The Sixers rotations and 2-3 zone have been meat for an exhausted Knicks club. Credit to Thibs for pushing the right buttons here. – 8:43 PM

@NBAKrell
The Knicks are on the second night of a back-to-back and went to overtime last night. Down 2 starters. Sixers were up 21 in the first quarter.
If you want that 2-seed or better, you have to win this game.
Not over yet, but this one would go in the “unacceptable” column. – 8:42 PM

@nyknicks
EVAN IS SCALDING 🥵
FIVE THREES & COUNTING… pic.twitter.com/iOfxslZvLo – 8:41 PM

@KyleNeubeck
Lazy ass rebounding down the stretch from the whole team (sans maybe Melton). Fournier and McBride with two killer threes because the Sixers all stood flat-footed on chances to end possessions. – 8:41 PM

@ginamizell
O-board. Open 3. Like clockwork. Knicks now have their largest lead of the game at 98-90 with 3:20 to go. – 8:40 PM


@MejiaDinero
76ers effort is so embarrassing tonight. Getting beat to every loose ball by a Knicks team that just wants it more. Letting Evan Fournier take you out.. just gross. – 8:38 PM



@TimBontemps
Montrezl Harrell is -15 in 3:17 tonight.
Paul Reed is -14 in 8:25.
That’s how Joel Embiid can be +26 in 30 minutes and Philly can be losing 91-88 with 5:21 remaining.
Sixers led by as many as 21 in the first quarter of this one. – 8:32 PM


@NBADraftWass
Obi Toppin has now made more three-pointers (50) than two-pointers (49) this season. Pretty wild if you’ve been following his development. – 8:30 PM


@NBAKrell
This run without Embiid is not necessarily the product of anything Paul Reed is or is not doing.
But, the clear theme tonight has been “win the Embiid minutes, hope the non-Embiid minutes don’t kill you”.
-29 in 10:27 without Embiid on the floor. – 8:25 PM

@rich_hofmann
Early int he fourth quarter, Joel Embiid is plus-25 in 29 minutes. His team is down four.
The Sixers’ two backup centers are a combined minus-29 in ten minutes. – 8:25 PM

@TommyBeer
Great job by the Knicks reserves at the start of the 4th for the third straight game.
Also credit to Thibs for (as requested) staggering Brunson and Randle’s mins so Brunson is on the floor at the start of the 4th – 8:24 PM

@KyleNeubeck
Joel Embiid is a +25 with 8:43 left in the fourth quarter.
Sixers are down 4 – 8:23 PM

@ginamizell
And this game has officially flipped. Knicks are on a 10-0 run, fueled by 3s by Toppin and Fournier. Timeout Sixers trailing 86-82 with less than nine minutes to play. Sixers once led by 21 points. – 8:23 PM


@DavidEarly
JJ Redick casually dropping advanced defensive rating splits with Maxey on vs Melton on with starters. Hopefully a new standard for analysis here. We’ve had to listen to super boring, basic, less informed stuff for decades. pic.twitter.com/DlN2SwQM1a – 8:13 PM

@ginamizell
Sixers 79, Knicks 76 after a tough shot off the glass by Quickley (over college teammate Tyrese Maxey) just before the buzzer. Felt like there were a couple times the Sixers could have stretched the lead in that period, but Knicks kept hanging around. Embiid with 25-13-3. – 8:13 PM

@DavidEarly
Harden looks like he’s ready for the all star BREAK… (is doc taking Maxey off the bench literally tonight? Just 15 min?) – 8:10 PM

@KyleNeubeck
Paul Reed is your backup center in the second half. So at least there’s that. – 8:09 PM

@ginamizell
Bball Paul (not Harrell) is Embiid’s second-half sub after replacing Harrell in the middle of his first-half shift. – 8:09 PM

@PompeyOnSixers
With 4:00 left in the third quarter, Joel Embiid tied Charles Barkley for seventh on the Sixers all-time blocks list with 606. – 8:05 PM


@JeffEisenband
Will the Knicks and Northwestern both break my heart tonight? That is the question. – 8:02 PM



@rich_hofmann
Harden’s hit-ahead passing is always a weapon, but it’s been excellent tonight at MSG. – 7:47 PM




@DavidEarly
Tucker was hit for an offensive foul trying this same screen Sims does here. In this case Maxey is hit for a block. I’m biased but Doesn’t seem consistent, does it? pic.twitter.com/hHbv1EczOs – 7:34 PM

@DavidEarly
Makable shot for Embiid here but you get the sense that in the best version of this team, he feels that dig and kicks for dime hockey assist. pic.twitter.com/O7nv5g2yiI – 7:31 PM



@ginamizell
Halftime: Sixers 53, Knicks 51. After leading by 21 points in the first, the Sixers’ offense torpedoed in the second quarter. Embiid has 14 and 8. Harden is 1-of-5 from the floor but has 10 assist and 4 rebounds. – 7:27 PM




@VinceGoodwill
New for @YahooSports: First, James Harden escaped, then 360 days later Kyrie did what he does in all his movies. Now is it time to move the last name standing, Mr Durant? sports.yahoo.com/kevin-durant-i… – 7:16 PM

@DavidEarly
Doc Rivers all bench unit kicked off a 17-0 Knicks run and got the msg crowd absolutely revved up. He’s either planning to use it in the playoffs or he’s not… and if he’s not… why deploy it every game now? No value in rehearsing your playoff rotations yet? – 7:13 PM

@NBAKrell
The Embiid MVP case is this first half.
Sixers +20 in 10:19 with him on the court.
-19 in less than 6 minutes without him. – 7:07 PM

What was a 21-point lead got down to three real quick. And for the second time this week, Paul Reed replaces Harrell in the middle of the backup center shift. – 6:56 PM

Sixers were -9 in the 1:41 Montrezl Harrell played in the first quarter. – 6:52 PM


@KyleNeubeck
9-0 run to end the 1st quarter immediately after Embiid checks out, when have I seen this before (other than every year) – 6:50 PM

@ginamizell
Sixers 35, Knicks 24 at the end of the first. Sixers led by as many as 21 points before the Knicks chipped away. Embiid with 11 and 5. Harden already with 7 assists. Melton with 9 on 3-of-3 from deep. – 6:50 PM

@DavidEarly
This trio did their homework. Already citing Jason Kidd post ups for kick out comps, Knicks defensive ratings splits pre/post Mitchell Robinson injury. Wanna see this group again? “You bet!” pic.twitter.com/QMNAOyvAEu – 6:49 PM

@NoahLevick
James Harden’s got seven first-quarter assists to the Knicks’ one.
De’Anthony Melton, who made his first five 3s on Christmas at the Garden, has started 3 for 3. NY is 0 for 8.
PJ Tucker’s been good on both ends, Joel Embiid has 11 early points, and Sixers lead by 19. – 6:42 PM

@knarsu3
PJ Tucker has more points in this quarter than he has all season. Sure this seems like it’s not true but are you sure it isn’t? – 6:42 PM

@ginamizell
Sixers’ lead has quickly ballooned to 19 points. They’re 10-of-14 from the field, and 4-of-5 from deep. Embiid has 11 and 4, Melton with 9 on 3-of-3 from deep. Even P.J. Tucker has seven points! – 6:41 PM

@NBAKrell
Harden has 7 assists in 9 minutes. One turnover from the whole team thus far. Tucker 7 points. Sixers up 19 by the time you got back from the bathroom. – 6:41 PM

@SBondyNYDN
The Knicks are shooting 28% in the first quarter. The Sixers are shooting 71%.
As you might guess, the Sixers are winning, 31-12. – 6:40 PM

@KyleNeubeck
2 passes to cover about 75 feet, turns into a lob finish for Embiid. That’s some good transition hoops. – 6:38 PM


@ginamizell
Touchdown, Tobias Harris. That’s already Harden’s sixth assist of the game. – 6:37 PM


@MicahAdams13
Shout out to everyone comparing Jalen Brunson & Kyrie Irving.
Brunson is the 2nd banana you want if you’re trying to win 55 games.
Irving is the 2nd banana you want if you’re trying to get to June.
I can’t believe I’m defending the most toxic superstar in NBA history but alas. – 6:36 PM


@NBAKrell
Joel Embiid has drawn a pair of fouls on Jericho Sims, NYK’s usual backup 5. Hartenstein up next. Not a ton in Embiid’s way tonight. – 6:34 PM


@IanBegley
RJ Barrett is doubtful due to non-Covid illness. He hadn’t felt well most of the day, per NYK. He was with the team shortly before intros but the illness returned and he left the floor. – 6:32 PM

Knicks say Barrett was on the court shortly before the game but doubtful with a non-covid illness. – 6:26 PM

There was a real chance the Mavericks were never going to get another All-Star if they didn’t move on Kyrie.
They just didn’t have the assets to win a bidding war against the Knicks, Thunder, Rockets, Jazz, Pels or Grizzlies.
They had to do this here and now. This is their shot – 3:38 PM

@MarcJSpears
Had a hunch from start of Kyrie Irving’s trade request that Dallas could be the spot. Big signature trade for Mavs President Nico Harrison after losing Jalen Brunson to the Knicks. Harrison has long old Nike ties to Kyrie. J-Kidd will be a great fit, too. Luka-Kyrie monster duo. pic.twitter.com/WQ88kxkTnA – 3:09 PM

@johnhollinger
Mavs’ next-available first is in 2025, provided they convey pick to Knicks this year. If not it pushes to 2026, then to 2027. Trade likely to be worded as “first available”
Mavs can trade seconds in 2025, 2027 and 2029. The 2025 is conditional on first-rounder above conveying. – 3:07 PM

@MarkDeeksNBA
I understand saying Cam Reddish on the surface and thinking “hey, we might be able to pick up the next Kelly Oubre on the cheap”. But he’s not gotten anywhere in four years, so if you’re seeing that sort of curve in him, it’s because you want to see it, not because it’s there. – 2:45 PM

@DavidEarly
The #sixers have basically been shaving points by avoiding certain winning lineup combos like Embiid-Thybulle. I guess cause they don’t “trust it for playoffs.” Fine! Just go get the 1 seed then go back to what’s been less effective later. pic.twitter.com/J1PFreoCAO – 12:25 PM

All summer Nico Batum practiced shooting quick 3-pointers. Grab and fire. Grab and fire. Repeat.
“It worked tonight,” he said Sat., after his 3 saved the Clippers in New York. On this night, that finish was only half of the drama surrounding the team.

If we are assigning blame for Saturday’s loss, RJ Barrett deserves the lion’s share, IMO…
