Kevin Durant says the talent and skill level is beyond what it’s been in the past. Points out what Joel Embiid and Karl-Anthony Towns are doing. And points to the defense Jason Kidd deployed tonite to slow him down as part of the evolution too. – 10:43 PM

Is it a great sign when your best four players have a combined A offensive game (maybe an A- with Harden’s 3-point shooting) and you still only win by four against a banged-up team?
Probably not, but that’s the Sixers right now. They win in Cleveland, 118-114. They are 42-26. – 9:31 PM

A tough loss for the #Cavs. Came back from being down 17 points to take the lead at the end of the third. A tight fourth quarter, but the Sixers outscored the Cavs 33-24 in the 4th. Sixers win 118-114.

Philadelphia 76ers PR @SixersStats
The @Philadelphia 76ers’ 72 points represent a season high for a first half.
They’re the second-most points the team has scored in any half this season behind only a 76-point second half against Orlando on 1/19.

They counted the Tobias Harris 3-pointer at the end of the second quarter, which means #Cavs defense gave up 42 (!!!) points to the Sixers in that quarter. Yeesh. Cavs defensive rating in the first half is an ugly 143.2. – 8:10 PM
