Doug Collins was asked before Monday's game if he thought the Clippers. Had enough to make a run at the NBA championship he said he thought they did because in addition to being the lob city Clippers. There also a team that rebounds and defends the -- experience that firsthand. When they shot under 42% for the game and a tough five at 22 from the floor in the second quarter. That's right in the most of what you probably -- Briscoe you're. I think I made some good really zoning but again the way that there -- days to go there and they -- as they do and the kind of zone for now we saw it and you that's kind of thing where we got to go look at it and just get some movement or this it made his own and you know there's -- -- who -- two guys have. You know he's got to give a lot of movement and obviously learn from this. They were tremendous so that the credit goes to them they they were they start out the game I told our guys take care of the ball. We had six turnovers in ten points off turnovers in the first in the first quarter. Quick hands. And when they're healthy I mean they -- there as good as anybody they day they were impressive so. My hats off to them they were tremendous they played great. The Sixers have one more game to play before they head into the all star break.

How well this team played this week you know there were some ups and downs. He has been a big win and Charlie mine it's an absolutely huge went and not just for Charlie and and his mind that the team and its actual record because. And look they would they went through that scoring drought. From Saturn better from Friday night through Sunday and then all of a sudden sort of in a way that I don't think anybody expected. They all seem sort of surprised by it. Where they break out of that scoring slump and then not only break out of it but also win the game with with two harm could really they had two chances to have a walk off win. But Cliff Lee got stuck on first base help but it was a it was a good it was a good weekend from another strong outing for John some bad news that is when Ryan Howard he's got. Bad left knee and Charlie and doesn't expect him to play tomorrow also Carlos I haven't MRI. On Monday to determine what's up. With his hamstring how big are these injuries absolutely Brigham and when you look at a team that has struck despite the fact that they won the game on Sunday. They're team that struggled to score and those are two of your better bats. In that lineup and both Howard and grocery said that they were database so you don't know when you're gonna get these guys back it didn't sound like they were in any danger at least not a Howard's. Side of of being on the DL right now but right now nobody knows I but the good news is the next team up. Is those struggling shall we say the floundering fish the Miami Marlins the Phillies get to play them for three games even the bring. Back power forward in the five man rotation how do you like that are shaping up the least experience I think for the Phillies you gotta be pretty excited after coming off of a series where you were you squeak out this last one here after having his scoring John you see the Marlins had the the Marlins in the Mets have been. Sort of panacea for everything that ails the Phillies this season so for them. Then it's looking pretty good and certainly they have forgot what happened last on the face to face when they dropped the last two of four games at right here at Citizens Bank Park for John is Marshall Harris.
