The game was one-sided, with the 76ers playing very efficiently, with multiple players scoring in double figures and very well controlled in terms of turnovers, and the team as a whole played well against the Raptors' front, and in the fourth quarter of the game, they widened the gap to more than 20 points, and the game lost suspense. In the end, the 76ers managed to win a big victory at home and got the opening red, and in this series, the team has taken the initiative.
In this game, the 76ers set a record in terms of control errors, they made 0 turnovers in the first half, and in the second half of the game, they only appeared 3 times individually, counting 1 team appearance, the 76ers only had a total of 4 turnovers, which is the fewest single-game mistakes in the 76ers' history, and the record for the fewest single-game mistakes in the playoffs in NBA history is 3, and the 76ers are infinitely close to this record in this game.
In this game, the 76ers have two players, Maxi and Harris, who are third and fourth in the team's tactical position, and in the regular season, they rarely work at the same time. After entering the playoffs, they are in very good shape, of which Maxie became the team's best player, he played 38 minutes in the whole game, 38 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists in 14 of 21 shots, which greatly refreshed the personal playoff single-game scoring record, and he was also the youngest player in the history of the 76ers to score 35+ points in the playoffs, surpassing Barkley, and this game Maxi played a historic performance and became the team's best player.
And Harris also showed his value in this game, he played 37 minutes in the whole game, 9 of 14, 3 of 5 three-pointers to get 26 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists, when Embiid and Harden were sandwiched, Harris also stepped forward and played a very shining play in the game, and his presence largely shared the pressure of Harden and Embiid.
Embiid and Harden, the two core players, are limited by the Raptors in this game, and their efficiency on the individual offensive end is not very high. Embiid played 37 minutes in the game, shooting 5-of-15, and only 19 points and 15 rebounds on 0-of-2 three-point range, and he became a supporting role in this game, not as shining as Maxie and Harris.
Harden's shooting efficiency in this game is not very high, he scored 22 points on 6-of-17 shooting in the whole game, shooting only 35.3% from the field, which is lower than his season average. However, harden also delivered 14 assists in this game, and only 1 mistake in the whole game, and Harden's performance was top-notch in terms of tandem team offense. When he encountered the bag clip, his pass helped Maxie and Harris get a lot of empty shots, and the two players were able to usher in an explosion, harden played a role, and Harden was the key player in the 76ers' victory.
In the G1 game, the team won a 20-point victory and played a performance of 4 turnovers in the whole game, which was a very good start. Hopefully, the 76ers will survive the next game, successfully win this series, and impact better results this season.
