Tonight’s Sixers game saw a couple of notable things: The return of Covington’s three-point shot, Rudy Gobert running roughshod over Jahlil Okafor until he got in foul trouble, and…that’s about it. The game as a whole was entirely bland and unremarkable. I really sold this post well.

Here are some highlights, good and bad:

Dario started the game with a pretty stepback:

Joel Embiid leaves the ground after Derrick Favors does and still stuffs him at the rim:

Jahlil Okafor, focused on blocking out Rudy Gobert, gives a wide open Joe Ingles two shots at a layup:

A good luck at some of Joel Embiid’s turnover problems. Two strips that never should have happened:

But on the plus side, here’s what the ability to hit a 3 as a 7’2″ center does for you. It opens up the pump fake, which leads to a shooting foul for a 80% FT shooter:

Another way Embiid is so deadly? He can score in so many ways:

Jahlil Okafor got a little revenge on Rudy Gobert:

Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot got his first NBA bucket:

And then, after 48 minutes of weak defense all around, the game mercifully ended.
