On this episode of The Sixer Sense Podcast, the Sixers’ victory over the Washington Wizards in game one is the main focus. In a game that had its ups and downs for Philadelphia fans, there’s plenty to analyze in the first game of the series.

Deep dive into Sixers victory in Game 1 versus the Wizards

Lucas Johnson and Christopher Kline offer their general overview of a game that Washington looked to steal after a week off from play by the 76ers. With strong performances by Tobias Harris and Joel Embiid, Philadelphia came away with the victory. The podcast breaks down key defensive and offensive players of the game. Then, the two hosts identify their most disappointing player in the game.

The next topic revolves around Philadelphia’s bench rotation. How did we feel about the players who came off the bench and the substitution pattern that could have a big impact on the series? The podcast provides what surprised us most about who got playing time, who did not make it off the bench, and who was not given their usual minutes.
