102-110, the 76ers unfortunately lost G4 on the road and missed the chance to sweep the Raptors. In this game, the 76ers didn't fully get into their own rhythm and struggled on the court. Although the Raptors have 10 more free throws this game than the 76ers, the main thing is that the 76ers did not hit the shot when they had the opportunity, and their performance on the offensive end was not ideal. At the same time, the whole team also had 15 turnovers, allowing the Raptors to use the mistakes to get a lot of points. In this game, the 76ers did not perform as well as the Raptors overall, which also led to their eventual loss of G4.
In this game, the 76ers are very much hoping to end this series on the road and advance to the next round. They are also very focused on the game, Embiid was injured at G3, but he wanted the team to win the series in G4, so he chose to play with an injury. Judging from the performance in the game, Embiid was obviously affected by the injury, which also led to his unsatisfactory performance, he played 39 minutes and 20 seconds in the whole game, only 21 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists in 7 of 16 shooting, which was significantly lower than his average performance in this round of the series, and in the first quarter, Embiid had only 1 point in 0 of 5. In the final quarter, Embiid didn't feel very good in the game, he only shot 1 time, had 5 points and 5 rebounds in a single quarter, and made 3 turnovers at the same time, he was not able to stand up when the team needed himself, and he was also frustrated in the game.
When Embiid was trapped by injuries and failed to play his best performance, the other core harden of the team, Harden, did not play ideally. He played 42 minutes and 13 seconds in the game, shooting 5-of-17, 2-of-8 three-pointers for 22 points, 5 rebounds and 9 assists, and four turnovers, while his plus-minus was -14, the lowest in the game.
Harden didn't come forward when Embiid wasn't in good shape, his shooting efficiency wasn't high, and while some of his offenses did get free throws, most of the ball-holding offenses failed to hit the basket. His game didn't feel good this time, although the game attitude and playing well on the defensive end, but on the offensive end, Harden was a bit crotch-pulling in this campaign.
In the current situation, the 76ers who lost the G4 also led the Raptors 3-1, but the bad news is that Embiid has an injury that will affect his performance. And with Embiid still not fully recovering, Harden does have to carry the team's flag. He's the leader of the team and one of the best players in the squad, and when Embiid can't play efficiently in the game, Harden as the core, he needs to play better on the court, and he can't have this 5-of-17 situation.
In the next game, Harden needs to reduce mistakes, while improving his offensive efficiency and better connecting the whole team's offense. In the case of Embiid's injury, Harden needs to lead the team to victory, and whether the team can win the next game in this series will largely depend on Harden's individual performance.
