It was anything but beautiful, it had to serve a genius stroke and he had Embiid in Petto. 0.8 seconds before the end of the extension, the center hit a turnaround threesome to victory after the Possession of the Sixers actually seemed corked. "That was the best litter of my career," Embiid explained after the game. "But we have not done our work yet." Toronto did not get a litter anymore and thus stands after the third defeat in the piece already before.
The hosts had delivered a bitter fight for more than 53 minutes and almost the complete season (highest leadership: +17 in the second quarter). O.G. Anunoby (26 points, 4/9 threesome) and Gary Trent Jr. (24, 4/9 threesome) always met important litters, and Pascal Siakam (12, 6/16) in the defense made a terrific game and yet it was Not enough again. "We have fought, given everything, but in the end we did almost everything wrong," a disappointed Fred Vanvleet (12, 3/13, 9 assists, 3 steals) found.
Embiid, which initially had great problems, dominated the second half and came in 44 minutes to 33 points (12/20 FG), 13 rebounds and 6 turnover. In the extension, the cameruner hit not only the gamewinner, but also this incredible litter to Pirouette. James Harden (19, 7/13, 10 Assists) showed light and shadows, but foul up shortly before the end of the regular playing time.
Thus Tyrese Maxey (19) prolonged the ball in the extension, he booked next to Embiid the other two Field goals of the guests in the extension. Tobias Harris (11, 4/9, 12 rebounds) put on a double-double, but would almost become a tragic figure after he put a seemingly simple hook throw for the possible victory with the siren of the final portion only on the ring.
Raptors lead early and entertains Philadelphia
The game of Sixers was strongly reminiscent of the performances against Toronto in Regular Season. The Raptors dominated the boards, they forced in the defenes turnover and exhibited emBIID from problems with double teams, as the center did not always make the right reads (4 of the 8 to the Sixers in the first quarter). Toronto, however, only sat down at the end of the section, when the threesome fell (29:19).
Philadelphia had a Field Goal from the two-sector, the Raptors, on the other hand, already 9 meters in transition. The advantage continued to grow before the Sixers finally also moved harden once again as a scorer and the guests held so on in the game (56:46).
The Sixers now also scattered a zone defense and broke the rhythm of the hosts. The threesome did not fell as desired, on the other side finally took over Embiid. The Pick'n'Roll with harden worked excellently, the Raptors also turned to a zone to prevent this play. Nevertheless, the guests were always behind, since the Raptors always stalked small runs.
Joel Embid sunk Toronto with unbelievable gamewinner
With the exception of some fastbreak points, however, there was nothing given, it was stones tapping announced - on both sides. Six minutes before the end, a putback from Maxey finally brought the compensation, but Vanvleet countered from Downtown, after the Raptors had shot ten tickets at a piece.
The hall boiled now, but the Sixers always had an answer. Harden from a floater and a free-throw in the last minute, but foul it completely unnecessarily unnecessarily at 27 seconds before the end of the clock against Precious Achiuwa (20, 9/11), the Raptors-Forward awarded both experiments.
So the Sixers got the chance to win, but Harris awarded after an offensive rebound a seemingly light short hook throw (95:95). In the extension it remained competitive, hardly gedscort. Serious litters were on the agenda, such a hit Embiid. With the last Possession, the Sixers actually generated nothing, so that coach rivers had to take a break at 0.9 seconds on the throw watch. It was followed by the incredible Embiid threesome, Toronto could no longer counter and stands out before.
