On February 13, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued, and the Cavaliers played at home against the 76ers. Recently, the momentum of the Cavaliers is very hot, this time facing the 76ers who are short of major generals, I thought it would be a matchup without suspense, but I didn't expect the 76ers to be in excellent shape, always biting the score, and even at the last moment to open the difference, at the critical moment Mitchell scored consecutive points to close the score, but unfortunately failed to grasp it in the end. In the end, the 76ers defeated the Cavaliers 123-121, ending the opponent's nine-game winning streak.
The recent momentum of the two teams has been very different, and the Cavaliers have won nine consecutive games to move into second place in the East. It's a pity that this time they haven't been able to continue the momentum and have not been able to open up the difference, the 76ers are in very good shape this time, and the two teams come and go. In the last quarter, the 76ers took the initiative and took a 10-point lead in the last minute, but then the Cavaliers Garland hit a three-point shot, Mitchell hit a 2+1 and then hit a three-point shot, and the suspense returned again, but unfortunately in the end, Mitchell was capped for a layup, and Garland failed to grasp the three-point shot. In the end, the Cavaliers lost 121-123 to the remnants of the 76ers, and the nine-game winning streak was ended.
The last moment was still very exciting, and the knight was also a pity that he failed to grasp the opportunity to kill. In the absence of Embiid, Harris and others, there are still 6 people in the team who score double-doubles, 3 of which are 20+, Maxey got 22 points and 9 assists, and two free throws and one hit at the critical moment almost pitted the team; Hield scored 24 points, 5-of-8 from three-point range; Oubre scored 24 points on 10-of-14 shooting and blocked Mitchell's layup.
I thought the Cavaliers would create the longest winning streak of the season, but they also fell on a nine-game winning streak. As the hottest team in the league recently, the Cavaliers rushed directly to the second place in the East, but unfortunately this time they failed to seize the opportunity and were defeated by the 76ers.
The Cavaliers also scored in double figures for six players, including Mitchell who scored a game-high 36 points and 6 assists, and scored consecutive points in the final minute to give the team hope of a comeback. Garland scored 21 points and 9 assists, and it was a pity that he couldn't grasp the three-point shot. Allen had 21 points and 10 rebounds, and the rest of the players had good performances, but they couldn't win the game.
