At the end of the game, Enbid missed the game, but Maxi still won the basket. Since both Magic and Pacers won, Philadelphia had no choice but to enter the play off. Next, they will compete with the Heat for a seat. To be honest, it is a game of life and death for both teams. Because whoever loses will have to face the first Celtic in the league, and even if the car overturns in the second play off game, he will miss the playoffs. Philadelphia coach Nass said directly that Enbid could not finish because he wanted to play with all his strength against the Heat.
Since his comeback, Enbid has been in good shape, having scored 37 points, 32 points, 30 points, 29 points and 24 points in five games respectively. For the Philadelphia offense and defense bonus, the existence of Enbid made the team take off. But even with the strength of the first center in the east, Enbid did not want to face the Green Army. Because the green team's style of play is very restrained, one Hoford can make the emperor extremely uncomfortable. Last year, Philadelphia's 3-2 lead over the Green Army was overturned. When the team was out, Enbid laughed.
This further shows that Enbid's despair and fear for the Green Army. In fact, Philadelphia's biggest goal is not to win the championship, but to break through once to reach the division finals. So it is self-evident that the next scene is important for Enbid. If we lock the seventh hit of the Knicks, Philadelphia is very likely to win the series. Then face the Bucks and Pacers, which may be the closest year for Philadelphia to the Eastern Conference finals. Just like the Warriors' Dream Chasing Green said on the podcast.
The Heat don't want to meet the Green Army in the first round. At the same time, Philadelphia has no chance of winning against the Green Army without Harden.
Dream Chasing Green said: "The Heat and Philadelphia do not want to face the Celtics. Philadelphia lost Harden, and Enbid does not want to face the opponent who eliminated them last year alone. They all want to fight the Knicks, because the Knicks is a better opponent than the Green Army. I think the next game against the two teams will be a life and death battle, a bloody battle, a bloody battle to fight away from the Celtics. Personally, I think the Heat will win this game. "
In last year's semi-final, Enbid was injured, but Harden dreamed of returning to Houston in the first game. He made 17 of 30 shots, 7 of 14 three-point shots, 4 of 4 free throws, scored 45 points and 6 assists and 2 breaks. He led the team to defeat the Green Army in the away game by 119-115, leading the opponent 1-0 in the big score. Harden in that game was the opponent that the Green Army feared in the past, and also the key to why the Nets could beat Celtics 4-1 in 21 years. A healthy Harden is a great threat to Celtics.
Because the Celtics are most afraid of holding the ball and being bullied by James, and then being hanged by Harden once when encountering the Rockets. The Celtics' style of play was just good enough to be hit by Harden, so in the 21st year series when the Nets beat the Celtics, Harden played the first round series with the highest efficiency in history. This is due to the fact that the attribute is mutually exclusive. In the seven games against the Green Army last year, Harden scored 40+points in two games to win.
In another game, Harden won two pairs in tandem with high efficiency. Now Harden is unstable. So last year, during the off-season, Harden wanted to go to the Clippers because Philadelphia could not win the Green Army. If last year's Harden is replaced by the uninjured Nets or the top Rockets, Philadelphia is very likely to be surrounded by the Green Army. Because the Nets without Harden were swept 4-0 when they met the Greens again. This is the embarrassment of Philadelphia. The core of the team is blocked by the Green Army attribute, and the team does not have such a big core as Harden. It is more important for Enbid and Philadelphia to avoid the Green Army than anything else. For the Heat this game, Enbid has no way out.
