The NBA semifinals are in full swing, with 4 groups of series already playing 4 battles, 3 of which will usher in the Battle of Tennoyama, and such a fierce competition is also what fans are happy to see. The 76ers and the Heat's battle of Tennoyama will be the first to start, and the 76ers have also updated the injury report before the game, and 2 players have been placed in the list of suspects.
The 76ers officially released the team's injury report, embiid was listed as a suspected player due to an orbital fracture and thumb injury, and another is Isaiah Joe, who was also listed as a suspect because of an ankle injury.
The most concerned about this is embiid's situation, from the situation of G3 and G4, Embiid has gradually adapted, and these two injuries will not let him miss the game. With Embiid's return, the 76ers have become stronger, as evidenced by two consecutive city-wins at home, with him and without him, the 76ers are a completely different team.
After G4, coach Rivers talked about how to carry the momentum into game five, saying: "Embiid will be on the plane to Miami. The G5 will certainly have a lot of fun. In the first two games of the series, Embiid did not go with the team to Miami due to concussion, and the team also lost the first two games there.
Now the 76ers are back in Miami with a 2-2 score, this time with Embiid, and this series has changed from this moment to a 3-game, 2-win format.
In the Battle of King Mountain, Embiid also had extra motivation to perform well. Woj has revealed in advance that Jokic was elected the MVP of the regular season this season, and Embiid regrettably became a runner. In fact, as in the past, after the announcement of some awards, they will encounter some doubts, and this time there are many people who are upset for Embiid. Judging from Jokic's performance, he also deserves this award, and you can't look at embiid still playing in the playoffs, Jokic is out and home, because that's the regular season award.
Failing to win the MVP this season will also motivate Embiid to perform better and prove to the outside world that he is also worthy of being elected MVP. Embiid has played in 68 games this season, averaging 30.6 points, 11.7 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game, making him the leading scorer this season. Now Embiid has extra motivation and is looking forward to his ability to help the team win on the road.
