It feels like we’ve seen this movie a hundred times.
The Sixers fell 114-102 to the Boston Celtics Friday night, spoiling the big fella’s celebration and falling into a 2-1 series hole.
Joel Embiid, who was presented with this year’s KIA MVP award before the game, went for 30 points, 13 rebounds, three assists, and four blocks, but his supporting cast struggled.
James Harden shot just 3 of 14, scoring 16 points and dishing out 11 assists but also turned the ball over five times and passed up enough looks in the paint to give Sixers fans PTSD.
