Joel Embiid is attempting to maintain Sixers on this one — he has all 9 of their factors right here early on — however the Sixers discover themselves in a 20-9 deficit early.
Nick Nurse is bringing in Nico Batum and Cam Payne instead of Lowry and Oubre Jr, who NYK was serving to far off to clog lane. – 9:21 PM
Gina Mizell @ginamizell
Perhaps that and-1 that bounced in for Embiid will energize the Sixers. Although, Embiid is the one participant with a bucket almost 5 minutes into this sport. – 9:18 PM

Widespread foul on Maxey – 9:15 PM
Ian Begley @IanBegley
Donte DiVincenzo had been 3 for 17 in previous three video games of this sequence on 3-pointers. He hits his first two in first quarter tonight and is defending Tyrese Maxey properly to start out the sport. Knicks lead by 10 4 minutes into the sport. – 9:15 PM

6/8 from the sector for the Knicks to open it up. No person has made a shot apart from Embiid on the opposite finish.
Should climate the early storm right here – 9:11 PM

A small “F Embiid” chant from #Knicks followers right here is adopted and drowned out by loud “F the Knicks” chants from the house crowd. #76ers #NBA – 9:05 PM
Steve Popper @StevePopper
As you’ll count on – Mitchell Robinson is in tonight…and Embiid is beginning for Philly. – 8:37 PM

Sport 4 was the primary time in his profession that Joel Embiid performed a whole 2nd half. Sport 5 was simply 2nd time he performed 48 minutes. If he performs 40+ minutes tonight it’ll be first time he’s performed 4 straight video games of 40+ minutes — he’d by no means performed 3 straight earlier than this sequence. – 6:30 PM

Gina Mizell @ginamizell
Nick Nurse has a midnight rule. Tyrese Maxey calls it debriefing.
Often, shifting on is most tied to recovering after crushing defeats (a la, Sport 2 for the Sixers). However what about when a crew simply captured an unfathomable win — however nonetheless wants two extra?
inquirer.com/sixers/sixers-… – 11:03 AM
Ian Begley @IanBegley
“The Knicks had been higher enjoying (Joel) Embiid single-up; they bought 2 late steals that method. However once they helped on Embiid earlier within the 4th, unhealthy issues occurred & open pictures had been created.”

Derek Bodner @DerekBodnerNBA
It doesn’t matter what occurs tonight, Philadelphia goes to power a “Maxey’s crew or Embiid’s crew” debate this summer season. Philadelphia can’t flip down a QB controversy. Enterprise fashions depend upon it.
The truth is, Maxey wants Embiid and Embiid wants Maxey.

Is there any resolution to the Knicks’ Tyrese Maxey drawback? nypost.com/2024/05/02/spo… by way of @nypostsports – 8:21 AM

Extra on this storyline

Austin Krell: Nick Nurse on one lesson he desires Tyrese Maxey to take from this sequence and on the non-health elements he sees that trigger volatility in Joel Embiid’s offense within the postseason: pic.twitter.com/o4O92t1RDR -via Twitter @NBAKrell / Could 3, 2024
Tim Bontemps: Closing: Knicks 118, Sixers 115 Buddy Hield’s buzzer heave misses, and New York survives a sequence that’ll go down as one of the iconic you’ll ever see. New York will face Indiana within the East semis starting Monday. Jalen Brunson had 41 and 12. Joel Embiid had 39 and 13. -via Twitter @TimBontemps / Could 2, 2024
In accordance to the NBA’s participant monitoring information, listed here are Maxey’s taking pictures numbers in opposition to major defenders for the sequence: vs. Hart: 44 factors, 17 of 28 subject targets vs. McBride: 34 factors, 14 of 27 subject targets vs. Robinson: 26 factors, 9 of 14 subject targets vs Anunoby: 13 factors, 5 of 13 subject targets vs. Hartenstein: 15 factors, 6 of 14 subject targets The Maxey-Embiid two-man sport has been the bugaboo for the Knicks, who’ve been promoting out to cease Embiid whereas watching Maxey flourish. “Each single possession they’re doubling me within the publish, which is okay,” Embiid stated. “We’re simply going to maintain making the fitting performs, you already know, belief my guys to knock down these pictures. And so they’re within the gaps extra, they’re actually attempting to stress me in order that’s the place I attempt to use myself as a decoy. …Tyrese goes to return and make a wide-open layup or shoot it or have the ability to drive.” -via New York Publish / Could 2, 2024
So far, Tom Thibodeau hasn’t arrived at an efficient resolution to decelerate Maxey. A part of that’s by design — the Knicks are doubling or displaying assist in opposition to Embiid at any time when he touches the ball within the publish, typically leaving Maxey — and the opposite half is the Sixers’ level guard is simply blowing up the protection. It’s the problem of New York’s numbers drawback within the sequence. The Knicks solely have one All-Star (Jalen Brunson). The Sixers have two. “We did some various things [against Maxey],” Brunson stated. “However good gamers at all times know when to regulate, so he stored adjusting.” -via New York Publish / Could 2, 2024
