In the G5 competition of the NBA playoffs, the Philadelphia 76ers went to New York to challenge the Knicks. The Knicks hold the lead with a 3-1 overall score, and the outcome of this game is directly related to the fate of the 76ers. Once lost, the 76ers will have to face the doom of elimination. Therefore, the performance of Embiid, the core of the team, is particularly crucial. However, in the first quarter of the game, Embiid's performance was not as good as it could be, and his shooting percentage was unusually low. Entering the second quarter, Embiid's shooting touch still did not improve, hitting only 3 of 10 shots, scoring 8 points and 9 rebounds. At the same time, Brunson led the Knicks into an offensive frenzy, and Embiid looked unusually struggling on both ends of the floor and unable to effectively respond to the opponent's offense.
Embiid was hatted by Miro, the Knicks launched a counterattack, and Hart advanced to assist his teammates from three-point range.
This time, Brunson almost hit the whistle with three points again, and the morale of the whole Knicks team was out, and the emperor was no longer in danger of playing the 76ers.
Embiid hit a step-back shot at the end of the second quarter to stop the bleeding for his team.
At halftime, the 76ers trailed the Knicks by 6 points 43-49, and the Knicks' counterattack climax came too fast, and the 76ers were caught off guard, but the 76ers' defense was solid so that the point difference was not opened and there was still a play, and in the second half, see if the emperor's hand can be warmed up.
