Philadelphia 76ers Team News
The Sixers got a big break in the first game. Although in that match they were weakened by Joel Embiid not playing, James Harden played a great first match, hit a three-pointer for the victory in the last moment of the match, and brought a very important victory for the Sixers.
Joel Embid won the MVP award for this season, and he played in the second game, but the Celtics blew them away and tied the game.
The team led by Doc Rivers will have to show a reaction in the third match, primarily defensively, and will have to slow down the rhythm in which the Celtics play. Embid did not look 100% ready in match number 2 and is questionable for this match.
Harden had a bad second game, but that’s him, from greatness to despair this season. Harris and Maxey need to contribute much more than in previous games.
Boston Celtics Team News
In match number 2, the Celtics showed their class and very convincingly defeated the Sixers. In the end, it was +30 for the Celtics, and Tatum, the team’s main player, scored only 7 points. In this match, Grant Williams also played an important role, defensively defending Embid very well, and in attack, he delivered his points at high percentages.
In the first match, the Celtics had everything in their hands and +10 entering the 4/4, but two big mistakes, first by Smart and then by Brogdon, who lost the balls and opened counters, allowed the Sixers to come back, and then Harden hit the triple to win.
The Celtics play at a very fast pace and with their width in the roster they “break” the opposing defense. While defensively, they are very mobile and can take on everything.
