Well, it looked like the Sixers might pull out a win as they briefly took a lead there in that third quarter,

but they came up clutch down the stretch.

Falling to the New Orleans Pelicans 112 to 99 in a game that pulls the bellikins to within three wins of the full off of 76ers.

Kyle, I wasn't sure if they had it in them to lose this one.

New Orleans was sitting as many people as the Sixers were.

When they came out in that third quarter

and started hitting from three, I got a little bit worried, but that was absolutely clutch.

There is a saying that is normally used in a different part of media.

There is no bottom.

There is not.

Applies to this team, especially when Quentin Grimes is not available to play.

They went out there tonight and they got the job done, Derek.

And I will say for who was available for the Pelicans, unlike some of these other shameful teams around the league, like Toronto, for example, these guys, for what they had, they played to win.

They had Olinic played 30 minutes and was out there fairly late.

Alvarado was out there to essentially close the game, right?

And not that he had a particularly good game, at least

shooting the ball, but he's one of their guys that sets the table, organizes things as a, you know,

professional NBA guard, Alfred Payton. You know, they have a lot of guys with a lot of experience.

You have a rookie in Eves Misi, who he was a force around the rim all night.
