Boston Celtics Team News
The first game of the semifinals of the Eastern Conference was dramatic for Boston. The Celtics were better in this matchup and looked that way until the end. It was 111:110 for the Celtics with 1:17 left in the game. We saw Tyrese Maxey lay the ball up for a 114-113 lead in no time. After that, the home team could not find a way to return to the lead and lost 119:115
Jason Tatum was excellent, with 39 points and 11 rebounds. Brown and Brogdon followed him with 23 and 20 points, but it was not enough for the 76ers to win. Several critical mistakes in the last minute of the match cost Boston the win.
The Celtics defeated the Hawks in the quarterfinals in a series that lasted only six games. Boston won in four and deservedly advanced. Now they have the most critical players at their disposal, and their quality proves that they have the strength to beat any rival.
Philadelphia 76ers Team News
The 76ers beat the Celtics 119-115 in a thrilling Game 1 clash at the Garden. It didn’t seem that way at first. They lost the first quarter by 38:31, and they appeared to have severe problems stopping the three most important Celtics players. Fortunately, they quickly released the pressure and won the next three quarters.
Few expected the 76ers to win the first match, especially without Embiid, who was not ready for this match.
James Harden showed that he is still a great player. He scored 45 points with six assists and was the most influential player in the game. Maxey also did well with 26 points. Against the Celtics, they played very hard and were consistent in the rough defense of their basket, and it paid off for them in the end.
