Keith Pompey @PompeyOnSixers Now reunited with the #Celtics, Al Horford reflects on his trying season as a Sixer: ‘It was a very low point’ inquirer.com/sixers/al-horf… via @phillyinquirer #Sixers #PhillyUnite #NBA – 11:04 AM

Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA I watched Celtics-Sixers twice. Don’t know that we learned much about either team. They are flawed, hard-playing teams that are fairly evenly matched.
I will say that I don’t know if any big defends Embiid as well as Horford does. It’s been that way for years now. – 10:36 AM

Kevin Love @kevinlove 2️⃣1️⃣6️⃣ Family @ Miami, Florida instagram.com/p/CW_CMLng8c3/… – 10:07 AM

Dane Moore @DaneMooreNBA After a loss to the Wizards, today we take a look at a few of the Wolves underlying issues.
– How DLo’s shot coming around will change the offense
– KAT’s post-up effectiveness

John Karalis @John_Karalis New on BSJ: Redemption sweet for Al Horford after career low point with Philadelphia 76ers
bostonsportsjournal.com/2021/12/02/red… – 12:54 AM

Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU Terence Davis dimed Fox, then followed up his third 3 with a pick-six off Bledsoe.
Morris/Ibaka have 7 points on 3/17 FGs, 1/7 3s (no FTs).
Lue has to burn another timeout after a Davis fueled 7-0 Kings run has LA down 19 again – 12:03 AM

Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif Turnover Eric Bledsoe, whose dribble was poked away on his way to the rim, and Terance Davis turns it into a dunk on the other end. It’s a 7-0 Sacramento run and back to a 19-point Kings lead. – 12:02 AM

Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU Bledsoe got himself an and-one, Buddy Hield got up from the bench to tell the 5 Kings on the floor to huddle up, and Alvin Gentry called a timeout before Bledsoe could shoot the free throw.
Clippers up 75-62 with 7:52 left in third quarter. Second night of B2B looms… – 11:58 PM

Jamal Collier @JamalCollier Khris Middleton on Giannis’ game winner:
“People talk about him just being dominant, but on that shot you can see the skill that he has. He’s not always dunking over people. That’s a tough layup even for guards” – 11:35 PM
