    I'm with ya on this but realistically speaking he would have fouled out. He had 4 fouls in 21 minutes. The kid needs time yes but in a close hard fought game he would not stay on the court. Brogdon played 32 mins and had 2 fouls.

    I wouldn't watch the game in real time due to travel, but caught up later.

    Did I see actual, proper lobs being thrown to a big cutting to the basket for dunks? I know Embiid was out, but there have been multiple opportunities game after game where they weren't taken advantage of no matter who was in. Against the 76'ers, it seems like they had more in one night than in the last month.

    Well done.

    They own the Clippers unprotected first from 2028. I want that.

    Scoot only played 22 minutes.

    He finished the game with 4 fouls.

    Realistically speaking, he could have played 11 more minutes at that rate before fouling out. That would have been 33 minutes playing time.

    Scoot entered the game with 7:44 left in the 1st quarter. He left at the 1:19 mark, after 6:25, with 3 fouls. Realistically, he also could have fouled out in 13 minutes if we just left him out there.
    He was able to play without fouling(in a blowout) at the end of the game, but to say he wouldn't have fouled out until 33 minutes is as accurate as saying he would have fouled out in just 13 minutes.

    Did you watch the game or are you coming to this conclusion just off the box score?

    I can only imagine the outrage had Billups let Scoot get his 4th foul in the 1st half.
