Andrew Toney the obvious no-show, and before the game Doc Rivers said the organization and Toney need to heal and get back together. Put bad feelings behind them.
Bulls are like, ‘Hell, most of our former players have bad feelings about us!” – 8:16 PM

Bulls pass up two open 3’s, turn it over.
Most of this team’s problems can be traced back to the lack of shooting on the roster. pic.twitter.com/vpqh3x9B3Q – 8:16 PM

That was a really good half by #Bulls, who lead Sixers 44-40, and they still made plenty of dumb mistakes with bad passes and poor rotations. Maybe that’s a good sign. DeRozan 11 pts, LaVine 10. – 8:05 PM

Sixers trail Chicago 44-40 at the half.
That’s as bad as we’ve seen the Sixers offense look in a while. 12 turnovers, in part because the entire team can’t catch the ball. Harden + Maxey go a combined 3-13 from the field. Still very much in the game, though. – 8:05 PM

Bulls take a narrow 44-40 lead out of the first half here in Philadelphia.
Not a stellar night for either bench, but the 76ers secondary group has only scored eight points.
Embiid only has 11 points in the first half off 3-for-7 shooting, but that can change in a heartbeat. – 8:04 PM

Sixers up 22-17 at the end of 1. Embiid has 9 points on 3-5 shooting to lead the way.

Caruso and Javonte Green both questionable tonight, as the heavy workload the last three nights has the Bulls skipping a shootaround today. It’s always sunny in Philadelphia … except when Embiid plays the Bulls. Never lost! Is he due? pic.twitter.com/3y8evu1weN – 2:09 PM

Julius Erving on Joel Embiid’s MVP candidacy: “He’s definitely worthy. I think he’s been worthy in the past.” Said Jokic, Giannis and Luka are clearly the four top contenders but “it might be Joel’s turn, which would be poetically justifiable.” – 1:23 PM

Doing research for a column I noticed nearly half of House’s jumpers were off the dribble. That’s exceptionally high for an off-ball role player (comparison: Only 3.3% and 8.5% for PJ Tucker and Georges Niang).
