Harden scored only two zero points in the second half, which was the first time in his free throw career. Harden played for 43 minutes, only scored 1 1 point on 4 of 9 shots and made 4 mistakes. This is also the first time in his career that he played for more than 40 minutes without a free throw. Harden scored only two zero points in the second half, and made a zero penalty for the first time in his career.
Harden scored only 0 points twice in the second half, making a free throw for the first time in his career 1. After the Tianwangshan fiasco, the 76ers still failed to break out at home, watching the Heat become the first team to advance to the division finals. Harden's performance in the life-and-death battle really surprised the fans.
Three minutes into the game, an accidental collision caused Danny Green to leave the game directly. Lin Tie also contributed the only three points before leaving the game, lost the most reliable shooter on the outside line, and the offensive space of the 76 ers was compressed, but he played back and forth with the Heat at half-time. Harden contributed three points 1 1 point, and 14 contributed five points. It seems that Embiid has a bad hand feeling.
But the 76ers only got six free throws at half time, and the referee didn't blow the whistle. Can the 76 ers win? Harden and Embiid averaged more than 10. Embiid made two free throws at half-time. What's the matter?
Yes, it's the 76ers' own problem. Without Danny Green, Embiid was a big center, and he actually started role-playing on the outside. He doesn't go to the low post for singles or cooperation, but always throws the ball to the high post. Are you too confident in your positive 1 or too superstitious about your three-point shooting rate?
The audience made 2 of 8 3-pointers, and the poor hand feeling floated on the outside. One is wasting offensive opportunities, one is losing rebounds, and the third doesn't even make free throws. The rebounds were 49 to 35, and the frontcourt rebounds 13 to 6. You haven't seen Slam Dunk, have you? Only the person who controls the rebound can control the game.
Embiid was so depressed that he was able to keep pace with the Heat in the first half, thanks to Gordon's support. However, in the third quarter, Harden was suddenly enchanted and made 0 shots in a single quarter. It was not sudden that Embiid was obsessed with shooting three points, perhaps to make up for his teammates. What do you think of Harden's "refusal to vote" to create opportunities for his teammates?
No one can really play except Milton. 20 points for Maxi, 20 points for 22 shots. Whoever gives confidence will become the second highest shot in the team. Embiid played Green, Maxi played Harden, Harden played the tool man who controlled the ball at half-time, and the 76 ers slipped.
Harden only made two shots in the second half, scored 0 points and suspended the free throw. At halftime, 1 1 minute, the audience ... same 1 1 minute. Netizen teased: What a coincidence, this Simmons scored 0 in the second half.
Now let's take a look at the trade between the Nets and the 76ers. The Nets were swept by the Green Army in the first round, and the 76 ers played without fighting spirit. Of course, there was also Siakam's contribution, but he only made seven free throws and lost his best scoring method. He wanted to cross the first place in the East with ease and freehand brushwork.
This is the playoffs. Without melee and confrontation, we can't go far. How do you think that playing Adebayor in the low post is a wonderful move to break the enemy? However, from Rivers to Embiid, to Harden, you seem to forget where the 3-second zone is. You made a three-pointer, lost a rebound and got hit back. In repeated cycles, you finally confirmed your life without a crown.
Embiid complained about not winning the MVP the day before yesterday. He doesn't know what he has to do to win the MVP. Let's take a look at Jokic's performance in the knockout stage. The lion slayer dared not compete with Adebayor.
Harden is even more visible to the naked eye, and even the top salary this summer has been questioned. It doesn't look much better to replace "Ben refused to vote" with "Ha refused to vote". Ben Simmons is at least young, but can Harden, 33, still count on it? What kind of comments will the emperor make when he loses the game? Some people should be more aggressive.
Butler finally waved goodbye to the 76ers fans, just like leaving the 76ers a few years ago. Young champions are not tough enough?
Harden scored only two zero points in the second half, and made a zero penalty for the first time in his career. On May 3rd, Beijing time 13, the 76ers lost to the Heat 90-99 at home and were eliminated with a big score of 2-4, repeating the tragic fate of last season. Harden played for 43 minutes, only got 1 1 on 4 of 9 shots, and made 4 mistakes. This is also the first time in his career that he played for more than 40 minutes without a free throw.
His overall performance in the playoffs was very bad, and his hip pull in this key battle was even more staggering. In the second half, he played for nearly 23 minutes, only hitting two goals but not scoring a point (for the first time in his career). He just didn't want to play, and his negative state caused public outrage among Philadelphia fans.
In this series, he scored 32 points on 9 of 32 shots in six games in the second half, and his shooting percentage was only 28%.
It can be said that after this war, Harden faced unprecedented doubts. He suffered such setbacks again and again in the playoffs, and his record of eliminating life and death was only 1 win and 8 losses. Is such a performance qualified to be the leader of a champion team?
Ironically, last season, 76ers coach Rivers said that Simmons might not be suitable to be the starting point guard in the championship team. The 76ers thought Harden was an upgrade of Simmons. Unexpectedly, his performance was even worse than that of Simmons.
By the end of the game, there were even shouts of cheering for the visiting team at home in Philadelphia, shouting "The Heat will win", which was the ultimate slap in the face for the 76 ers.
Harden scored only two zero points in the second half, and made a zero penalty for the first time in his career. In this season's NBA playoffs, the Philadelphia 76 ers showed their toughness to a certain extent, eliminating the Raptors in the first round and facing the first heat in the East in the second round, and tying the series score after welcoming Embiid, but in the key Tianwangshan game, the two cores,
The 76 ers who returned to Philadelphia in Game 6 have no way out. If they can't win, they have to go home and fish! However, the 76ers in the last stop did not show the fans their determination and belief to win. Embiid was in a low state, and accidentally injured teammate Danny Green when he broke through in the first quarter, which caused the team to lose the most stable finish line on the perimeter.
Harden, who performed well in the first half, became invisible again in the second half, and the old problem of life and death remained the same. In the end, under the leadership of Butler, the Heat beat the 76ers 99-90, and the series score was 4-2. Be the first to enter the Eastern Conference finals!
No free throws, Embiid has no dominance, and Harden is habitually invisible.
After the Philadelphia 76ers got james harden through a trade, they and Embiid formed a dual-core system with an inside line and an outside line. They all have a similar feature, and they are experts in making fouls in the league. Although the league has revised the penalty standard for defensive fouls this season, it is more difficult for them to profit from the referee's penalty. Harden and Embiid can still get a lot of free throws in the game.
However, in the sixth matchup with the Heat, the 76ers who went home did not enjoy the treatment at home. Embiid fell to the ground frequently in the game, but only got four free throws. The game's highest 24 shots, but only got 20 points 12 rebounds and 2 assists. Compared with the greatness of killing the quartet in the regular season, it is not a level at all.
The reason why Embiid didn't enjoy the so-called home whistle was also discussed by fans. A mainstream view is that the league doesn't want to see the 76ers advance to the Eastern Conference finals, which will greatly affect the playoff ratings. Once the game enters the deciding game, the outcome is unpredictable, and the suspense of ending the sixth game is the safest choice.
As the core of the backcourt, Harden also has an unshirkable responsibility for the 76ers' exit. In this game, Harden entered a state of no attack. When he got 1 1 point in the first half, he only shot twice in the second half, and there was no 1 point. From Houston to Philadelphia, Harden never proved himself in a life-and-death battle!
The emperor who was about to foul paid a heavy price for it.
If Harden doesn't attack in this game, Embiid won't advance. As an inside player, the efficiency of shooting only 7 goals from 24 shots is obviously failing, while Embiid has been falling on the offensive end, hoping that the referee will blow his whistle and let him make free throws, which has paid a painful price in this game.
In the first quarter of this game, when Embiid broke through with the ball, he habitually fell down, but directly hit teammate Danny Green's leg, which directly led to the latter being carried back to the locker room with the help of his teammates. In this series, Danny Green is the most stable three-point shooting point for the 76ers. In the two games won by the team, Lin Tie's personal scores reached double digits. In the game before the injury, Danny Green also hit it within three minutes.
Butler led the team back to the division finals.
The tough guy jimmy butler's return to the division finals is undoubtedly the script that NBA wants to see most. After coming to Miami that year, Butler once led the team to stand out from the East. Unfortunately, he lost to the Purple Gold Army Lakers led by James and Thick Eyebrows in the finals, and the Heat also saw the hope of hitting the championship this season!
In this game, Butler also proved his value. The whole game scored a team-high 32 points, in addition to the personal comprehensive data of 8 rebounds, 4 assists 1 steals and 2 blocks. The praise of the integration of offense and defense is well deserved, while Struce, who has had a bright performance in the regular season, shared the worries for Butler. In the 76ers' defense system, Hiro scored four three-pointers and scored.
The Heat, the first to advance to the Eastern Conference finals, will wait for the winner between Bucks and Green Kay. If we follow the league's inner thoughts, we definitely hope that Butler will play the letter brother in the Eastern Conference finals. Whether the defending champion bucks can lock in the second division final in the sixth game, let's wait and see!
