It wasn't fun, but the Sixers beat the Celtics behind a heater from Justin Edwards and a put-back from Kelly Oubre. We talk about the win that gets the Sixers to 7-4. Then we discuss Joel Embiid's knee soreness, Paul George's potential return (LOL), the Mavericks firing Nico Harrison, and the NBA's ridiculous new All-Star Game format.
