The NBA playoffs continue today, and the Philadelphia 76ers still have to play the New York Knicks.
This game is logically going to end the series, because the 76ers really can't stand it, mainly because the core center Embiid can't stand it. In the previous play-off stage, Embiid's knee injury was more serious and he couldn't last long. Throughout the series, Embiid struggled and was widely criticized by fans.
Today, Embiid was just as bad, scoring 19 points on 19 shots, and while he had 10 assists, he also had nine turnovers. The 76ers almost lost to Embiid, but Maxey forced the game back. With half a minute left in regular time, the Knicks led by 6 points, but Maxey made an unreasonable three-pointer and made a foul to make it 3+1.
The Knicks' Hart made 1 of 2 free throws to give the 76ers a chance. Maxey served in the backcourt, dribbled to the vicinity of the center circle, and there was no time, so he shot a three-pointer directly, and the logo shot actually hit it. As a result, the 76ers tied the game by 97 points and dragged the game into overtime.
In overtime, the Knicks were discouraged, only Brunson was fighting alone, but he was also tired, and in the end it was the Knicks who lost to the 76ers 106-112, and the overall score became 2-3, and the 76ers were not eliminated.
Today's Maxey scored seven consecutive points in the last 17 seconds of regular time, and scored 46 points in the game, which can be said to have single-handedly saved the 76ers and Embiid. Embiid dragged an injury out of force for 48 minutes today, which was not easy, but it was unreasonable for him not to kowtow to Maxi and shout "Dad".
