Sixers thump Atlanta, 122-94. Good performances everywhere. Some of them: Tobias Harris (22-11-4 on 9-13), Tyrese Maxey (efficient 16 + 3, defended Trae) and Matisse Thybulle (defensive masterclass).
They are 4-2. Good thing, too. Can’t let the Wiz and Knicks run away and hide. – 9:51 PM

Over his first two seasons in NY (2019-20 and 2020-21), the Knicks were just 3-18 in the 21 games Julius Randle scored fewer 15 points.
The Knicks are now 2-0 this season when Randle scores fewer than 15 points (and he had just 16 points in last Sunday’s victory over Philly). – 9:47 PM

Remarkable all-around game from RJ Barrett tonight in New Orleans: career-high 35 points on 12-18 shooting, including 6-8 from beyond the arc. He also had eight rebounds, six assists, just one turnover and defended well in NYK’s win over NOP. Knicks (5-1) hit 19 of 33 3-pointers. – 9:32 PM

The Pelicans have a lot of nice players who try really hard.
Right now, it doesn’t really matter in the standings though, because they simply aren’t good enough to close out wins.
And most nights they won’t be, at least until Zion is back. – 9:22 PM
