Through their trade before draft, the Sixers and Celtics are somehow connected to each other, especially Markelle Fultz and Jayson Tatum, who were effectively swapped for each other.No. 1-Pick Fultz was not at the start of this match due to illness, as was Joel Embiid, Dario Saric and Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot.Accordingly, the Sixers appeared with Jerryd Bayless in the Starting Five, who with 15 points quickly became their top scorer.

The top scorer in a match worth seeing, however, was the Point Guard on the other side: Kyrie Irving scored 21 points in 25 minutes, including five of his seven threesomes.Uncle Drew received support from a good bank, with Terry Rozier (13), Aron Baynes (12) and Marcus Smart (11) scoring double-digit points each.From the Starting Five, only Jaylen Brown (10) was able to do this – the Celtics played with an interesting small ball lineup of Irving, Brown, Gordon Hayward, Tatum and Al Horford.Daniel Theis was not as dominant this time as he was on his debut, but in 13 minutes he scored 4 points (2/7 FG), 6 rebounds and 2 blocks.

In the Sixers’ case, besides Bayless, Amir Johnson, J. J., was the main killer.Redick (both 12), Jahlil Okafor (11) and Justin Anderson (10) as scorer.Ben Simmons scored 8 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals, but he also lost five balls.

Who would have thought it?Although the Knicks with Kristaps Porzingis and Frank Ntilikina lacked the probably “most interesting” players, the guests in the capital sold well and delivered a match that was almost thrilling for preseason conditions.They were always within striking distance of each other until the final minutes, before a Sheldon Mac three-way kick came to a decision about two and a half minutes before the end.

Wizard’s top scorer John Wall (19 points) was already sitting there on the bench, but the Point Guard had already done his job and enchanted the fans with a driving dark about Michael Beasley.Backcourt partner Bradley Beal scored 13 points, while Kelly Oubre (14) and Mike Scott (12) from the bank provided support.

In the Knicks, newcomer Enes Kanter (16) and returnee Tim Hardaway (15) were the strongest players, Courtney Lee scored 12 points and Jarrett Jack scored 11.
