On May 2, Beijing time, ESPN celebrity Wo Shen reported that Joel Embiid will not follow the team to Miami to play two away games, he will recuperate in Philadelphia, he was hit by Siakam in the G6 against the Raptors to concussion + right eye socket fracture, he may return in the second round of G3 or G4.
Embiid, who averaged 26.2 points, 11.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 0.33 steals and 0.83 blocks per game, was greatly reduced in Philadelphia's hard power. James Harden said in an interview: "As a scorer I have to play more aggressively, I can switch between organization and scoring, I can do anything to win. I knew we were supposed to be out of the game, and all I could say was that we would relax and play with confidence. ”
ESPN's 19 media experts all believe that the Heat will advance in this series, and 7 of them feel that the Heat can solve Philadelphia as soon as 5 games, and 9 people think it is up to six games, and Philadelphia is looked down upon.
According to the prediction of the data media FTE, Philadelphia played the second round of G1 at home for the Heat, and the probability of Philadelphia winning was only 28%, which was quite low, and the Heat's net win score would be more than 6 points, which was undoubtedly a contempt for Harden.
Harden fans uploaded a picture when the team's main scorer was injured Harden will take on the main scoring task (Durant was injured), from December 25, 2021 to January 1, 2022, during which Ha appeared on the field with 35.5 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists, shooting 47%, which is quite a good performance.
You may have forgotten how Harden, who averaged 36.1 points per game, played, and who's sure Harden wouldn't explode when he played the Heat? Harden has this ability, he can be a savior, this time it is hardened to get the playoffs to prove himself again.
The players who scored 3,000 points, 700 rebounds, 800 assists, 200 steals, 80 blocks, and 55 percent true shooting percentage in the playoffs have only four players in history: Harden, Jordan, James, and Bird.
Harden is third on the playoffs 30+ active list, and he has won 44 times. Although he only averages 19 points per game in the playoffs so far, it should be easy for him to score 30+ when he needs to take on more scoring responsibilities, so let's trust Dengo again.
