Well, there was a moment there where it looked like this one could be in doubt.

Sixers used a 14 to 4 run to take control of the game down the stretch,

pulling out an incredibly important win over the Utah Jazz in Night where they got some help across the league.

Welcome to PHLI Sixers postgame show live from the Xfinity Mobile Studio.

We are, as always, presented by Bet365, where winning is everything.

And winning, being everything is certainly true in this one

because look we're at the stage of the season when you're sitting there you're playing

without four starters playing without someone after first quarter in dominic barlow who has

started a lot for a second there it looked like you might have been playing the second half

without vjcum the only starter still standing. At this point, it doesn't matter how

it looks. It only matters that you get that W and you try to avoid the play in tournament.

Welcome, everybody. I am joined once again by Paul Hudrick. If you miss the post game show, Devon and Kyle, and Bree, for that matter, all have the night off. So we have Paul here stepping in. We have Ethan behind the glass. How you doing, Paul? I'm doing all right. A little tired, a little, you know, as it's a, as you said, you know, I'm old and I'm a dad. So I'm like really feeling it. But yeah, you know, huge win. I mean, really, like you said, I mean, huge win. It's ugly would be an understatement. But it's a win. It's a huge run in the standings. And they got help from the league. And they got maybe a little bit of help from the Utah Jazz as well.

Well, yeah. No, I mean, the Utah Jazz definitely played a hand in this because quite frankly,

there was a point in the third quarter where I was like, all right, Ace might like lift them to

a win single hand. He struggled a little bit in the first half, came out pretty hot there

in the third quarter before tailing off a little bit down the

stretch. I guess there's a bunch of places we could start in this one, but I think my logical

place is Vijay Edgecombe. You know, he ended up the night with 22 points, 13 rebounds, which

that's a couple nights in a row where you've gotten really big contributions from him on the last.

Four assists, shot nine of 19 from the field and just one of four from three point range. He is our player of the game. And I thought this was one where, look, after, you know, he had moments in the second quarter, had a nice pullup, mid-range pull-up, had a nice spin move to a floater in a second, a Euro step to get a bucket in transition. And then he got hit in the face. Was it Filipowski that got him? Who got

him? I think he got him twice too, like an elbow and then the follow through smack. Clearly

incidental, but yeah. And he went back to the locker room with like a minute and a half left.
