On May 5, Beijing time, the Heat played at home against the 76ers, and the Heat defeated the 76ers 119-103 at the end of the game. In fact, this game is very critical for both teams, after all, the 76ers definitely do not want to return to their home court with a 0-2 disadvantage, but the Heat need to seize the opportunity of Embiid's absence to win more games, so this game the 76ers want to win the game needs Harden to play a good performance, but now Harden is really embarrassed, in this game Harden only played a good performance in the second quarter, and in the second half of the game Harden was invisible again. And Maxi's outburst didn't help the 76ers win, and the Heat eventually tied the series to 2-0.
In the absence of Embiid, the 76ers' interior line is too bad, and Jordan Jr. has no way to restrain Adebayor in the game, but let Adebayor complete the dunk without temper, and at the same time, the 76ers defense is also very bad in this game, not only is there no way to limit Adebayor, in this game Butler, Hiro and others also played a very good performance, in the face of the 76ers multi-player situation, the 76ers have no resistance at all, even if it is not in the fourth quarter of the game Harris, Maxi has some decent play, so the 76ers could be behind by more points.
So the current 76ers definitely miss Embiid infinitely, and now Embiid has new news, and Rivers was interviewed by the media after the game. Reporter asked: Can Embiid play in G3? Rivers said: "I really don't know, video chatted with him today, he still has a lot of steps to go, and there are no updates yet. It can be said that Embiid is really not optimistic here, from Rivers's words, Embiid may not really be able to return in the G3 game, and such a thing really makes the 76ers very passive, after all, from now on, Harden is already difficult to carry the flag, Rivers has not changed much in the game, such a 76ers simply can not beat the Heat.
At the same time in this game, the Lakers abandoned Green also became a sinner, after all, when the 76ers chased the score, Green here got a three-point opportunity, but now Green is no longer the previous Green, his offense in the game is very sluggish, so the 76 people can not catch up with the score, the end of the game Green 10 1 got 3 points and 2 rebounds, of which the three-point shot is a bad 9 of 1, it can be said that when Green has such a performance 76ers will only be more difficult. And after this game Perkins said: "I'm glad I voted for Embiid!" If you take Embiid out of this team, the 76ers won't even make the playoffs. I hope everyone can see his worth now.
It can be said that Perkins' statement is really rooted in Harden, after all, Harden is one of the double giants of this team, but in Perkins' view, the 76ers can not even play in the playoffs without Embiid, his statement is undoubtedly demeaning Harden, but the reality is so, Harden did not stand up to help the team at the critical moment. And the reason why the Heat can Oladipo in this game is also a contribution, especially in the fourth quarter of the game when the 76ers chased the score, Oladipo's play helped the Heat to open the score, and after Lowry was injured, Oladipo was still very good to help the team, and looking at such Oladipo, it can be said that the Heat left Oladipo in the offseason is really right, because at this time of the season, Oladipo successfully helped the Heat.
