I'm surprised that this game went to OT, I was watching in the 4th quarter but the Sixers already had a good lead, I'm surprised when I come back that the game was already in overtime. Still plenty of time left, but it's still the sixers who are leading in the OT period.
Lakers made a good comeback in the fourth quarter that's why it went into OT. It was wild as we thought that Sixers is going to win already, I mean 9 points down with less than a minute if I'm not mistaken then forcing an OT that could really hurt the Sixers.
The Lakers though have a chance to win if only Davis hit both free throws with 3.7 left.
But the good thing is that they keep themselves, composed and didn't let that huge comeback by the Lakers hurt the team.
Not only Davis, but Reaves could have given the Lakers a one point lead if he just make all 3 FT, unfortunately he hits 2/3. And they still have a good chance this time it was on Davis shoulder, but then again 1/2.
In the OT it was not even close, the Lakers scored their only point in OT when the game is already decided.
Pat Bev drives for a 2 point and that's it. And this could be one of the greatest comeback though if Lakers win in OT.
Embiid played really well for Philadelphia 76ers. He started the game in a really devastating way. And that was very challenging to contain for Lakers. James Harden was at the heart of everything that was happening for Philadelphia 76ers. He had really smooth coordination with both Melton and Embiid.
For Lakers, Russell Westbrook, and Anthony Davis actually had good coordination in this game. Actually, Lakers played really well. But they did face some difficulties on the defensive side. I think if Lakers can start defending a bit better, they will be able to bring results in their favor.
