“But we played hard on defense, we executed and we played with a lot of grunt. “My role is to come in and provide a spark and make those shots,” McDermott said. [Joel Embiid](http://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/3059318/joel-embiid) had 40 points as Philadelphia fell to 0-3 for the first time since 2016-17. Hopefully, everything will be back to normal.” Through three games, Embiid has a combined minus-17 (5.3 average). It's a fairly new team and it's going to take time to get everyone on the same page.

San Antonio (2-1) was more efficient defensively than in either of its first two games, where it yielded 131.5 points on average. “We had a good win last night (against Indiana) and we didn't get complacent. Coming off a 134-137 victory at Indiana on Friday night, the Spurs were 16 for 38 from 3-point range and had a 40-10 advantage in bench points.

The Philadelphia 76ers lost their third straight game to open the 2022-23 season Saturday night, falling to San Antonio 114-105 at home.

Their next chance to break the winless start will come Monday night as they host the [Pacers](https://theathletic.com/nba/team/pacers/). Backcourt teammate [Tyrese Maxey](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/tyrese-maxey-ZaAqNko77dWsPkHu/) fared better on offense, scoring 25 points and hitting three 3’s, but his defense was a major struggle against the Spurs, partially reflected in his -11 plus-minus rating. Center [Jakob Poeltl](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/jakob-poeltl-wzkpB8YKmxhyMN2h/) tallied his first double-double of the season, scoring 13 and snagging 11 rebounds. The strong performance came after a two-game opening stretch where he only made 15-of-39 shots and scored 41 points to start the season. Joel Embiid did play much better (40 points, 10 boards), but it goes without saying, an absolutely brutal loss when you kinda needed a win. The 76ers were loudly booed by their home fans at the end of the loss to the rebuilding Spurs.
