The Miami Heat have an opponent in the 2022 NBA Playoffs Eastern Conference Semifinals now that the Philadelphia 76ers have eliminated the Toronto Raptors after a convincing 132-97 victory in Game 6 on Thursday night.
The No. 1 seeded team in the East continues to have homecourt advantage, with the best-of-seven series against Joel Embiid, James Harden, Tyrese Maxey and the rest of the Sixers opening Monday night at FTX Arena. Whichever team advances would face the winner of the Boston Celtics vs Milwaukee Bucks series that begins on Sunday.
