On April 26, Beijing time, the NBA playoffs Philadelphia lost 88-103 at home to the Raptors, and the big score was chased to 2-3! In this battle, Philadelphia collapsed in the second quarter, and the whole game was suppressed by the opponent. Harden's 15 points, seven assists and five turnovers were tantamount to sleepwalking, while the elder Rivers commanded helplessly. From 0-3 to 2-3, the Raptors have clearly seen hope of a comeback and may even create the most incredible super reversal in NBA history.
In the last game, the Raptors won at home after falling behind 3-0 to avoid the doom of being swept out. Philadelphia returned home and, if unable to win, would return to Toronto for Game 6. Once losing again and the 3-3 situation moves into a steal of seven, Philadelphia's mentality will surely change dramatically. Coupled with the history of the old Rivers being reversed, the Battle of Philadelphia can be said to be infallible.
But after the game began, the situation did not go into the track that Philadelphia had envisioned. The first quarter of the game between the two sides was very sticky, and the Raptors took a slight lead 29-27. But in the second quarter, Philadelphia completely lost power, and only scored 14 points in a single quarter! In the half, Philadelphia scored just 41 points, setting a record for the lowest half-time scoring score in the playoffs since 2014. At halftime, Philadelphia trailed by 13 points 41-54.
In the third quarter, Philadelphia double stars Embiid and Harden still showed no signs of erupting, but Maxi scored 8 points in a single quarter. Philadelphia chased back four points in the quarter, trailing nine points into the final quarter. As a result, in the final quarter of the game, the Raptors played very actively. In a key moment for Philadelphia to chase points, Anunoby and Trent hit two consecutive three-pointers, and then Anunoby broke through the dunk to help the Raptors fully open the point gap 96-82. In the end, the Raptors won another away game, and the big score was 2-3.
Throughout the game, the Raptors scored in double figures, Siakam 23 points, 10 boards and 7 assists, Anunoby 16 points, 5 boards and 4 assists, Trent 16 points, Achuva 17 points and 7 boards, Barnes 12 points and 8 boards. For Philadelphia, Embiid had 20 points, 11 boards and 4 assists, harris 16 points, 7 boards and 4 assists, but Harden still played poorly, 4 of 11, only 15 points, 7 assists and 5 turnovers. In the final stage, the camera finds Rivers, only to see him blue in the face and sluggish. Embiid, on the other hand, covered his mouth and said something. In the next game, if Philadelphia can't win away from home, they may really "set" the most humiliating record in history - the 3-0 lead is reversed.
