Philadelphia 76ers ‘believed in’ Justin Edwards after efficient night against Celtics | NBA on NBC
HIS HANDS AS A BIG MAN. WHEN HE’S APPROACHING THE PICK AND ROLL, WHEN HE’S ATTACKING THE PICK AND ROLL, USING HIS HANDS, HEE HE’S GOOD. HE’S VERY GOOD IN THAT PICK AND ROLL. >> WE’D BE REMISS IF WE DON’T BRING UP JUSTIN EDWARDS. >> YEAH, YEAH. PHILLY ACE OWN, YES, YES. >> FIRST EIGHT FIELD GOALS IN THIS GAME, HAD FIVE THREES, 5 OF 6. FILL HE’S OWN. WON TWO STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS. JERSEY’S ALREADY RETIRED IN THE CITY OF PHILLY. FOR HIM TO GET THIS WIN AT HOME, PLAYING A LOT OF MINUTES, IT WAS IMPRESSIVE. >> IT’S DIFFERENT. JUSTIN IS SOMEBODY, AGAIN, I SEEN A LOT OF THESE KIDS. YOU WATCH THESE KIDS KIND OF GO THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT AND PROCESS. EVEN THOUGH HE WASN’T DRAFTED, BUT JUST TO SEE HIM PUT THE WORK IN, SEE WHERE HE’S AT FROM A CONFIDENCE LEVEL ARE THAT’S THE MOST IMPORTANT THING. THAT’S THE BIGGEST THING THAT I’VE SEEN FROM JUSTICE THROUGHOUT THIS SEASON. JUST HOW CONFIDENT HE IS OUT THERE SHOOTING THAT THREE. THIS TIME LAST YEAR, HE WASN’T CONFIDENT SHOOTING THAT SHOT. NOW HE’S BECOMING ONE OF THOSE TWO-WAY PLAYERS THAT PHILLY CAN UTILIZE. >> EARNING THE RATE TO BE ON THE FLOOR WHEN IT COUNTS. NOT JUST THAT. THE BEST PLAYER ON YOUR TEAM IS GETTING IN THE PAINT, LOOKING FOR YOU. YOU SEE KELLY OUBRE SAID A GUY WHO’S BEEN SHOOTING THE BALL, THEY TRUSTED HIM, PUT THE BAT IN HIS HANDS. THEY BELIEVED IN HIM. HE WAS SHOOTING THAT THING WITH CONFIDENCETHAT’S HOW YOU EARN MORE MINUTES, YOU EARN MORE TRUST. IN LATE GAMES, COACH CAN PUT YOU IN THE GAME TO ALLEVIATE SOME STRESS OF THE BIGS WHO DRAW — WELL, THEIR SUPERSTARS WHO DRAWS
