After a big win and a road trip, the Philadelphia 76ers, whose confidence had grown, returned home to face the Challenge of the Suns during a two-game winning streak.
On the 76ers side, Sable ushered in a comeback, Embiid was in hot form, the team had home advantage in this campaign, and Rivers was also lined up to win 2 consecutive games.
On the other hand, the Suns, this team back-to-back combat, can withstand the pressure, Paul + Booker + Ayton as the core of the team, obviously will face a lot of pressure!
Finally, after four quarters of competition, thanks to the excellent performance of Embiid + Harris, the 76ers who played at home, although in the first three quarters, once overpowered the Suns, took a 14-point lead.
But at the moment of the final showdown, Booker + Paul + Bridges + McGee felt hot and led the Suns to play a wave of counterattack frenzy, instantly turning the situation on the field.
In the end, the Suns, who were fully up, also reversed the 76ers 114-109 on the road, which was worth the trip and also won 3 consecutive wins!
In this game, although the Suns once fell into a passive situation of falling behind by as many as 14 points, fortunately, the team did not mess up, but played a team performance of 5 people scoring in double figures, completing the reversal.
In the case of the main forces such as Ayton + McGee, continuing to perform steadily, the two aces Booker + Paul, and the play of Tigers Bridges, are particularly critical!
Booker continued the fiery feel of the previous game, starting 36 minutes, shooting 3 three-pointers on 11-of-23 shooting, and blasting a game-high 35 points, plus an all-around performance of 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal.
Among them, throughout the second half, he suddenly shot 20 points of heroic performance, not only led by example, led the Suns to blow the counterattack horn, but also once became a difficult existence for the 76ers to solve!
More importantly, throughout the game, Booker has not made a mistake personally, and it can almost be said that he has helped the Suns complete the reversal by himself!
In addition, as the core commander of the team, Paul's play in this game is also indispensable.
Paul was still solid in this campaign, delivering a double-double performance of 16 points+ 4 rebounds + 12 assists + 2 steals, contributing to the offensive end, and successfully revitalizing the whole team and directing a good reversal!
Of course, the Suns were able to win this game, and the performance of Tigers Bridges also played a crucial role.
Bridges was very efficient in this game, starting 40 minutes, shooting more than 60% of the 14 shots in 9 shots, and delivering 23 points + 4 rebounds + 2 assists in the game.
And his key performance in the last quarter, 3 shots and 3 bullets without false shots, not only completely disrupted the defensive rhythm and deployment of the 76ers, but also successfully affected the trend of the game at both ends of the attack and defense!
On the other hand, on the side of the 76ers, the team failed to withstand the pressure in the final quarter of this game, and finally lost by 5 points, which obviously needs to be examined.
After all, in the case of Embiid + Harris playing well and cutting 30+ at the same time, the performance of Seth Curry in this game is indeed hard to blame!
This game Seth Curry was slightly sluggish, starting 23 minutes, 1 of 9 shots felt cold, and the outside three-point shot was only 1 of 6 shots completely lost the crosshairs.
In the whole game, Seth Curry only got 3 points + 4 rebounds + 2 assists + 1 block, and I have to say that his performance in this game is indeed a bit unsatisfactory!
In the face of Booker, who has gone crazy, and the Suns, who have blossomed more, the head coach of the 76ers, Rivers, seems to have to accept the reality of being reversed again!
