I don't think Mavs defense was the reason for this loss. At all. They scored only 95 points shooting 25 % from three, with bunch of those shots wide open. Same as in the first game it was Embiid and bench that killed us. Sixers bench outscored Mavs one 45-26 and held their ground even against our starting unit.
DFS was 2-7, JRich 0-3, Brunson 0-3, Melli 0-2, Burke 0-2 and Redick 1-4 from three. Only THJ and Kleber were respectable. I wonder how Mavs would look against Philly with KP. It would sure take some of the pressure from Luka.
