Tobias Harris said the Sixers’ crunch-time offensive execution was good except for a couple turnovers but “we still had too many defensive mistakes [in the] fourth quarter. We’ve got to clean that up. We’ve got to be able to really make a stand and hold our ground there.” – 11:10 PM

Doc Rivers on Furkan Korkmaz’s game: “Loved it. We ran the first play for him, tried to get him involved early. He went downhill. I thought that started getting him comfortable.” – 11:07 PM

The triple take: 76ers 115, Spurs 109
1. Early bugaboos bite the Spurs again.
2. Jakob Poeltl came to play, even as Embiid dominated.
3. Sometimes it’s the little things that stymie comeback bids.

Sixers win in San Antonio, 115-109. They are 27-19. Got down to a two-point game late but Joel Embiid got to the foul line and restored order. He scored 38 points and is generally good at basketball.
Maxey, Harris and Korkmaz chipped in with 18, 18 and 17. – 9:20 PM

Been using my peripheral vision abilities to watch Spurs-Sixers and man it’s been another rough shooting night. Basically the same story as last game. Bad from 3 AND bad around the rim. The 8/16 shooting in the restricted area after going 18/36 on Friday is killer. – 8:14 PM

Main takeaway from first half: Hard to beat anyone shooting less than 40 percent.
Spurs hitting 39.1% at the break and took a late surge to get that high. Philly up 59-47 at intermission behind 16 points from Joel Embiid. – 8:04 PM

Doc Rivers back in San Antonio for his yearly visit.
Once again, the Spurs crowd should be giving him a standing ovation every time he steps foot in the arena. It’s the least they can do.
