Today, the 76ers continue to challenge the Raptors on the road, and they lost to their opponents in the last game, and this game certainly does not want to be doubled. Embiid was also absent with sore knees.
Without the emperor, the 76ers' offense played more fluidly. The 76ers built up a lead in the first quarter and stopped the Raptors. After the timeout, the Raptors returned with an 8-0 run to erase the deficit. The two sides then fell into a tug-of-war, with the 76ers leading by just two points at 28-26 at the end of the first quarter.
In the second quarter, Maxi led the charge, scoring consecutive points to stretch the gap to double digits in one fell swoop. Harden also continued to fire when he returned to the court, leading the 76ers by 21 points at the most of the first half. The Raptors trailed by 17 points at halftime at 48-65.
In the second half, the Raptors launched a crazy counterattack, and the 76ers were consecutive mistakes and irons, and the 76ers were beaten to shout three consecutive timeouts in this quarter, and the Raptors blasted 22-16 in a single quarter, and the 76ers led by only 11 points at the end of the third quarter.
As soon as the fourth quarter came up, the 76ers went on a wave of 7-2 to reopen the point difference, and the Raptors did not give up on continuing to chase the score wildly, but Maxi suddenly scored 10 consecutive points to kill the game directly.
In the end, the 76ers easily defeated the Raptors 112-90 on the road to complete the revenge, and won the second win of the season. Let's take a look at the specific performance of the players!
