After the first round of the NBA Eastern Playoffs this season, many teams have seen the hope of the following grams, including the Philadelphia 76ers, although their opponent in the first round is the biggest dark horse in the East in the regular season, locking the second-place Knicks, but the latter interior core Randle season reimbursement, so that their overall combat effectiveness has fallen off a cliff, but in the first two games, the Knicks have proved on their home court that they can become the strongest dark horse, not in vain, winning two games in a row to grasp the initiative to advance, and then the two teams moved to Philadelphia, Embiid broke out at home, led the 76 to recognize a city, after a 2-day restAfter the game started, the 76ers played a momentum at home, once establishing a 12-point lead, but Embiid reappeared in the final quarter, and Brunson became more and more courageous, and finally led the remnants of the Knicks, winning 97-92 and getting the match point of the series!
Embiid softly goes into the countdown to crying
Before the start of the regular season this season, Harden, who came to Philadelphia for the championship, began to put pressure on the team to leave the 76ers, in addition to being disappointed in the team management, there is also a very important reason that there is no hope of winning the championship.
Embiid's performance this season also proves that Harden's judgment is very correct, the emperor who scored high points in the regular season is like chopping melons and vegetables, after the start of the playoffs, the dominance has declined visibly, and in this battle in the life-and-death battle that the team can no longer lose, Embiid only hit 7 of 19 shots, as a top center in the league, such a shooting rate is obviously not up to par, although he contributed 27 + 10 + 6 + 3+2 comprehensive data, but Embiid is still the sinner of the team's loss, in the fourth quarter where he needs to stand up the most, Embiid missed all 5 shots, only 1 completed the offense in the three-second zone, and the remaining 2 were mid-range, 2 times outside the three-point line, such a soft egg performance also made Embiid enter the countdown to crying.
Brunson interprets tough guy, and Knicks win game point
In stark contrast to Embiid's softness is the Knicks' outside core Brunson, the overall state of his teammates in this game is not good, except for him in the fourth quarter, only Anunoby and McBride scored double-doubles, Brunson's rampage laid a solid foundation for the team's reversal.
In the first two quarters of the game, Brunson scored all double-doubles, and has been struggling to continue the life of the Knicks, and in the third quarter, Brunson scored 15 points alone, leading the team to achieve a rebound, and in the final quarter of the final quarter, Brunson still scored 9 points under the condition of being heavily guarded, interpreting what it means to be a real tough guy, and Brunson scored a career-high 47 points in the playoffs throughout the game, in addition to 10 assists, becoming the biggest contributor to the team's victory.
After the end of this game, the remnants of the New York Knicks have achieved a big 3-1 lead, the first to get the series of match points, the fifth game, they will return to their home court again, I believe that the Knicks, who have played momentum, will not give the 76ers another chance, and there is a high probability that they can end the suspense of the series at home!
