Daily News | Sixers showing support for one another, which is ‘super-contagious’
That was evident when they viewed film of their Oct. 28 victory over the Toronto Raptors at Scotiabank Arena. In the first meaningful minutes of the season, Matisse Thybulle buried two huge three-pointers early in the game.“He was the first one screaming and excited,” Thybulle said. “And I think it’s just being that for each other. And I think that kind of stuff is super-contagious.
This is the type of culture that coach Doc Rivers is trying to build with the Sixers. That’s why he made a point to highlight it during the film session. There were three clips in a row of the bench’s reaction to Thybulle in three-point situations. For him, it was an awesome thing for a coach and player to see everyone chuckling and enjoying the video.Sixers happy to welcome Joel Embiid back from flu, especially with James Harden’s absence
“To have a guy that is supposed to be my mortal enemy be the one that [tells] me … ‘We’re going to do this together’ was like an awesome experience,” Thybulle said. “And I think it played a lot into our relationship now. I think it played a lot into our team in general, how we all related to each other.”Joel Embiid played in Monday’s game against the Phoenix Suns at the Wells Fargo Center after being sidelined the last three games with the flu.
