**Knicks suffer back-to-back losses, 76ers are in trouble: who is to blame for the loss?**
Oh, this NBA playoffs are really getting more and more exciting! On April 29, Beijing time, the fourth game between the Knicks and the 76ers was really sweaty. The Knicks were under a lot of pressure on the road last time, although they played hard with the opponent in the first half, but in the third quarter, the defensive system seemed to suddenly collapse, losing by 16 points in a single quarter! This time, even if Brunson scored 39 points and handed out 13 assists, it was difficult to save the defeat. After the 76ers returned to their home court, the situation reversed all of a sudden, Embiid scored a career-high 50 points, Maxey and Oubre also played well, the team's offensive firepower was full of firepower, and the score in a single game soared directly to 125 points!
But then again, whose blame is it for the Knicks to lose? The numbers don't lie. First of all, we have to mention Ti Brunson, although the star of the house has both points and assists, but the team's interior defense problems are not something that can be solved by one or two people. The Knicks' lack of interior defense allowed opponents to score easily, which Brunson alone could not compensate. Speaking of Miro, there is still uncertainty about his playing status, which undoubtedly adds a lot of variables to the Knicks' lineup. As a result, no matter how hard Brunson tries, it will be difficult to resist the opponent's offensive.
As for the 76ers, although Embiid played well, he can't be blamed entirely. After all, basketball is a five-person sport, and not one person can play the world. Maxey and Oubre also performed quite well, and the team swept away the previous decline in attack. But Embiid has been less efficient in some games, with a nearly 40 percent possession rate, which raises questions about his role on the team. Shouldn't we give other players more opportunities to make the team more balanced?
Overall, the Knicks and the 76ers are not winning or losing this battle. The Knicks have problems with interior defense and player form, while the 76ers need to be efficient on the offensive end while paying more attention to the overall balance of the team. In this way, the culprit of the loss is really not one person, but the whole team needs to make adjustments in tactics, state and coordination.
Of course, as fans, what we want to see is the wonderful performance of the players on the pitch and the spirit of the team to rise to the occasion in difficult situations. The Knicks and 76ers, as strong teams in the playoffs, both have good strength and potential. I believe that in the next game, they will definitely find a solution to the problem and bring us more exciting matchups.
On the Knicks' side, Brunson, as the star of the house, has a lot of responsibility. He needs to lead the team to improve on the defensive end, especially on the inside. At the same time, the team also needs to confirm Miro's availability as soon as possible in order to provide more support to Brunson. Only then will the Knicks find a way to win in the upcoming games.
On the 76ers' side, Embiid's efficient performance is undoubtedly a highlight of the team's offensive end. But teams also need to keep an eye on Embiid's turnaround percentage in the game to ensure that the team is balanced on the offensive end. At the same time, other players also need to play to their potential and contribute more to the team. Only then will the 76ers be able to go far in the playoffs.
Of course, as fans, we also need to understand the decisions and choices made by players and coaches during the game. After all, in a high-pitched game, every decision can make the difference between winning and losing. So, whether we win or lose, we should give enough support and encouragement to the players and coaches. Only then will they be able to perform at a better level in the next games and bring us more exciting games.
Finally, let's look forward to the performance of the Knicks and 76ers in the next games! At the same time, let's also pay attention to other exciting matchups in the NBA playoffs and witness the glorious moment of this basketball era together!
**Knicks defense collapses, 76ers are in a bitter battle: who is to blame for the loss?**
On the basketball court, victory and defeat are commonplace. But in the NBA playoffs on April 29, Beijing time, the matchup between the Knicks and the 76ers was a big surprise. The Knicks looked resilient in the last game, but this one completely collapsed on the defensive end, losing by 16 points in a single quarter, which was jaw-dropping. Although the 76ers rebounded back at home, their overall performance was still not satisfactory. So, who should bear the blame for this loss?
On the Knicks' side, the star Brunson's performance is still eye-catching, with 39 points and 13 assists to prove his individual ability. But the success of a team is not just the result of one person's efforts. The Knicks' lack of interior defense became a big reason for their loss. The opponent easily broke through the defense and scored like a probe, which made Brunson's efforts more effective. In addition, the uncertainty of Miro's playing status has also brought a lot of variables to the Knicks' lineup. In such a crucial match, the slightest change can affect the final victory.
On the 76ers' side, Embiid's high-scoring performance is certainly eye-catching, but he is less efficient in some games, and the problem of excessive round possession cannot be ignored. Basketball is a five-person sport, and one person's outstanding performance can certainly drive the whole team, but if you want to go further, you also need the cooperation and hard work of the whole team.
