Sixers vs. Boston Celtics observations: Philly’s not quite a title contender; Joel Embiid still needs help
Lack of depth will be a major concern in the postseason. And similar to the past, the Sixers will have to rely heavily on Joel Embiid.Embiid’s biggest takeaway from this three-point loss is the Sixers are right there with Boston. To a casual fan that appears right, considering the Sixers would have forced overtime had Embiid’s desperation three-pointer after the buzzer counted.
Meanwhile, Embiid had to finish with 41 points, 12 rebounds, five assists, and three blocks just to keep the Sixers competitive with a Celtics squad having an off night. During that time, Maxey shot 1-for-4 from the field. He made 3 of 6 shots in the final quarter. But for the game, the third-year guard was a minus-11.. McDaniels had four points on 2-for-4 shooting, but was minus-23 in 14:50. Meanwhile, Niang was minus-22 in 12:41. He also failed to score after missing his three shots.
Harden scored 21 points and had eight assists, but made just 5 of 16 shots. He also gave up a lot of easy buckets, defensively. The Celtics felt like their time that they could manufacture buckets, and they did so easily.
