On March 15, Beijing time, the 76ers lost to the Nuggets 110-114 at home, and the NBA's strongest interior battle ended with Jokic's victory, and the regular season MVP Embiid was also a bit hanging.
In this game, in fact, Embiid and Harden played well, in addition to Harden's final cooperation with Embiid, Harden, Embiid, and Maxi are still the best big three of the 76ers.
Unfortunately, the Nuggets jokic, Hyland, and Cousins are not vegetarians, especially the Nuggets' bench lineup is a hammer against the 76ers' bench lineup. Despite Harden, Embiid, and Maxi, they still couldn't resist the 76ers' bench and eventually lost the game, and the 76ers still lost the game at the beginning.
The main problem in this game was that the 76ers' fast attack was not good enough, and the Nuggets used the fast attack to score 29 points in the game, while the 76ers only scored 11 points with the fast attack, which was not half as good as the Nuggets. Now the three-point ability of the 76ers lineup is a little off, and it does not play the strength of the three-point shot, Harden and Embiid do not have many three-point shots, and Niang has only hit 2 three-point shots 10 times.
Of course, the most critical thing is the huge gap between the two teams' bench lineups, the 76ers' bench only scored 14 points, and the Nuggets' bench lineup scored 48 points, and the gap between the two teams was instantly reflected. Such a bench lineup also allows the Nuggets' main lineup to have plenty of rest time, and obviously relieves the pressure on the offensive end of players such as Jokic, Barton, morris and so on.
In particular, Hyland performed well, becoming a miracle player to beat the 76ers, hitting 7 goals in 14 shots, scoring 21 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists on 4-of-9 three-pointers, becoming a key part of the Nuggets' win. Harden played 40 minutes on the 76ers side, shooting 24 points, 9 rebounds and 11 assists, shooting 6 of 11 from the field, and nearly half of the personal scores came from the free throws.
Embiid played 37 minutes, bombed 34 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists, shot 11 of 20 shots, 3 of 3 from three-point range, 9-of-10 from the free throws, and played well.
The Nuggets played 34 minutes, with 22 points, 13 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks, shooting 8-of-16 from the field, and personal data filled the data column. Hyland played 32 minutes, had 21 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, and shot 7-of-14 from the field, becoming a big contributor to the Nuggets' wins.
