could it be the clippers defense? that team has a bunch of good defenders even without pg13. first game of a new team. lets not get too hasty.
i was able to watch a few games during my breaks today and say part of the sixers and celtics. sixers were looking strong. especially their main core. boston was looking like they were having a harder time scoring. it was a physical match but it was looking like the sixers were going to run away with it.
