$76ERS: End of three and the 76ers are still in this thing. Defense wins these. Keep the foot on the gas and CLOSE it out in the fourth.

Sixers fans always say defense wins, then Embiid sits and nobody on that roster can guard a chair. Maybe close it out, but I'll believe it when the fourth quarter shows up.

defense wins it for sure but the 76ers lost to detroit 106-93 so the close-it-out part didn't happen. cunningham had 26 and that was the difference.

Defense did the work in the first three, sure, but the Pistons shot the ball well enough that the 76ers needed a lot more stops than they got. Cunningham going for 26 is the real story of that game.
