Playoffs Day 20
Pre Game: It’s the 20th day of playoffs action as we again only have 1 game, #2 Toronto vs #3 Philadelphia. Philly won a closely contested Game 2 on the road and now look to take advantage of the home-court.
Game 1: The only game we have on our schedule tonight is #2 Toronto vs #3 Philadelphia. The 76ers were up by 11 at the end of the 1st half, 64-53. Joel Embiid had 18 for the 76ers and Kawhi Leonard had 17 for the Raptors. The 76ers managed to pull away in the 4th, outscoring the Raptors 27-14, eventually winning the game 116-95. Joel Embiid had 33 points, Jimmy Butler added 22. Kawhi Leonard had 33, Pascal Siakam added 20. The Raptors need more scoring from Lowry, Gasol and the bench if they want any chance at winning Game 4 on the road @ Philadelphia. The 76ers need to play the way they did tonight if they want to take a 3-1 series lead over the Raptors.
