The Sixers' defense couldn't stop Oklahoma City on Thursday night. That, and other takeaways from the loss ⤵️
Joel Embiid’s foul trouble was also a killer. And the Oklahoma City Thunder play hard.The Sixers’ starting backcourt of Tyrese Maxey and James Harden is known for offensive production — not lockdown defense. And the Thunder took full advantage of that, leading folks to wonder how long the Sixer duo can remain paired together.
But the Thunder’s offensive explosion was similar to what teams routinely did to the Sixers at the start of the season before injuries led to them adjusting their starting lineup. As a result, the Sixers defense ascended to one of the best in the league with Melton and/or guard Matisse Thybulle in the lineup. There were times when Melton would start in place of Harden and/or Maxey. Recently, he started alongside both of them.
The center subbed into the game with 7 minutes, 26 seconds left in the second quarter. However, he left 26 seconds later after picking up his third foul. He didn’t return for the rest of the half.
