I wasn’t able to watch the game last night, so I missed Roger’s usual summary. Looks like the teams swapped quarters to dominate. Nice to see some many players contributing to the offense. Anything unique/special about the defense?

76ers got off to a fast start and lead by 10 very quickly with Embiid outplaying Isiah. When Embiid went down in the 2nd, the knicks outscored them something like 21-2 !! Took a 13 (??) pt lead. Embiid came back in the 3rd and they came back to take the lead by 6 points max I think. Then Hart, Bogy, and Deuce started to hit 3s to take the lead. Hart was everywhere and hit 3 treys in the 4th !!
There was no defense vs Maxey in the 2nd half....Embiid was less mobile in the 2nd and Robinson was very active (4 blocks) and the team dominated both boards. Embiid was 0/5 with Robinson guarding him. He had some blood showing through the left knee bandage - so not sure of his status for tomorrow - no updates on him yet. Some anchors were suggesting that they shut him down, as they really do not have a chance to win it all and just gear up for next year with a healthy Embiid.

What a fantastic finish. The Sixers were in trouble as they inbounded the ball without a time out, enabling the steal. Clutch 3 by Dante. I really like this team. I think we will split in Philly.

Would be good to see the Knicks take this series. Even though I do not follow basketball.

gotta admit, I was scared that they may call a foul on OB at the end - it looked close ..

Just finished watching it this afternoon (without knowing the result). Great comeback at end. Need to win at least one in Philly - will be very tough. Embiid and Maxey are both so great.

Miami seems to wake up playoff time - very dangerous, but I still see the Celts winning the series....

knicks have to come out firing, they cannot afford to fall behind big quickly. If they gain the lead, the locals may turn on their team and that would work in our favor.
Any update on Embiid status for tonight ??
