I’m still recovering from this Bucks victory of the 76ers. Sadly, I don’t think Philly fans will ever recover. This one was brutal.
I think Dario Saric is the one 76er who is not at least partially to blame for this loss. Maybe you could say that he should’ve been more aggressive as the game was slipping away, and as the game was slipping away for the second time, but, after the first quarter, increased aggressiveness for the 76ers seemed only to result in increased turnovers.
Saric’s first quarter made me want to die, no lie, actually in between the first and second periods I went into my closet, closed the door, lay down in the corner, and pretended I was in a coffin ready to be buried. That’s how bad Saric’s dominance hurt me. He just kept making shots! And the Bucks couldn’t do anything about it!
He did a little more damage in the third, he was actually the “3” of a 27-3 run against his team, and he hit a meaningless fourth-quarter shot, and that was it. Not so bad, from the perspective of this dude, who is a Bucks fan, but probably disappointing for Croatians/Filthydelphians.
