On April 18, Beijing time, the 76ers played at home against the Heat, and the 76ers successfully defeated the Heat 105-104 at the end of the game. It's really not easy for the 76ers to win the game, after all, in this game, the Heat once led by 14 points, but in the second half of the game, the 76ers began to gradually recover, Batum's three-point state broke out as a turning point in the game, and Embiid stepped up at a critical moment in the fourth quarter, so the 76ers successfully completed the reversal, in this case, the 76ers entered the playoffs in seventh place in the East, and they will face the Knicks in the first round of the playoffs.
Batum's magical performance in this game helped the 76ers win the game, so Batum received a lot of praise, and after this game, skip commented on this game: The 76ers' performance in the second half really caught my eye, starting with Batum, they played such a good style of basketball. Without Harden, they were much better. It can be seen that the famous mouth skip is also ironic about Harden at this time, although skip did not explicitly say that Harden is not good, but from the expression of skip, it is said that the current 76ers are playing better, which is undoubtedly to show that the previous Harden delayed the 76ers, although the 76ers did play well from this game alone, but it is undoubtedly too early to say that without Harden the 76ers would perform better in the playoffs.
Although the 76ers won the game smoothly, Embiid should really be lucky, because the Heat did bring a lot of trouble to the 76ers, and even if it wasn't for Batum's sudden outburst, then the 76ers really wouldn't win, so although the 76ers entered the playoffs, it was still difficult for them to beat the Knicks on the next gram, you must know that under Thibodeau's coaching, the Knicks are also disciplined, and Embiid's free throws will definitely be reduced in the playoffs, so if Embiid falls into a slump in the game, and the 76ers have not yet appeared at this time, then the 76ers may still be difficult to pass。
At the same time, in the second half of the game, Butler played more and more sluggishly, and even in the fourth quarter of the game, Butler was directly invisible, and now the reason for Butler's slump is also out, after the game, Spo talked about Butler's knee injury, which Spo said: As the second half deepens, the impact of injuries on him is getting bigger and bigger. Obviously, the reason why Butler lost his aggression in the second half of the game was because of the impact of injury, in the first quarter of the game Butler fell to the ground with a knee injury, although Butler continued to play, but it is clear that Butler was still affected by injuries, and after the game, Butler's right knee was put on a brace, and I revealed that an MRI examination would be performed.
It can be said that Butler's injury at this time is a huge blow to the Heat, and the Heat will undoubtedly face a huge challenge at this time, although Butler is also injured this season, but whether Butler is a completely different team will be a completely different team, and at the critical moment the Heat has no one to rely on, just like this game, if Butler controls the ball at the critical moment, then the Heat's grasp will undoubtedly be greater, so the next play-off Heat will undoubtedly face a huge challenge, if Butler really can't play at that time, then Adebayo needs to step upAt the same time, Herro also needs to play better in the game, otherwise the Heat may not make the playoffs in the end.
