'Danny Green’s one-handed fast-break dunk in the closing minutes of a second straight blowout win may not have been the game’s most pivotal play, but it did offer the tidiest summation of the events of Game 2,' writes ByDavidMurphy.
This was not a liftoff. It was a miracle of physics. Rumbling down the court with five minutes to go, you could almost hear the landing gear groaning as the 34-year-old veteran planted a wobbly leg.
After a month of hand-wringing and head-scratching that left more than a few so-called experts predicting imminent doom, the Sixers are starting to look like a fully formed team. Yet the structure of the Eastern Conference’s elite and that of the Sixers’ themselves is going to require more than three horsemen to make it all work. In Harden, they have a point guard whose chief strength is his ability to maneuver the court into a position where he can exploit what he sees. In Embiid, they have the most dominant physical presence in the NBA, a player who creates space for his teammates without even touching the ball.
The formula is not complicated. We saw it throughout Harden’s tenure in Houston, and we’ve seen it whenever Embiid has been surrounded by above-average shooters. In the corners, on the wings, there will be open shots. The Sixers just need a couple of players who will consistently knock them down.
