Under the stars of basketball, every NBA battle is like a wonderful drama, and every player is the protagonist on that stage. Today, we're going to talk about a recent high-profile matchup: the Nets vs. the 76ers. This game is not just an ordinary regular season game, it is full of stories, emotions and anticipation, especially for Ben Simmons, it is more like a proof of return.
At the start of the game, the Nets were like a freshly filled train, roaring unstoppably at home and quickly building a double-digit lead. And the 76ers, it seems that they haven't had time to warm up, and they are a little at a loss by this force. By the end of the first quarter, the 76ers had trailed by 16 points, reminiscent of the old saying, "The game has just begun, and the outcome seems to be doomed." ”
At halftime, the Nets still held a 16-point lead. At this time, the 76ers, without Embiid's solid defense, seemed a little powerless. The Nets, on the other hand, are playing steadily, not only leading the score, but also controlling the pace of the game on the court.
Entering the third quarter, the Nets' Cameron Thomas seemed to have turned on the individual show mode, and he blasted 21 points alone in this quarter, almost saying to the 76ers: "Look, this is me!" After this quarter, the Nets' lead had expanded to more than 30 points, and the outcome of the game seemed to speak for itself.
Still, the 76ers didn't give up and made a last-ditch effort in the final quarter. Tquitvion Smith hit back-to-back three-pointers, and while he added some points to the team, it was too late. In the end, the Nets stormed Philadelphia at home, beating the 76ers 136-121.
In this game, there are several characters whose performances stand out. First up is the Nets' Ben Simmons, who, while he didn't score, proved his worth with nine rebounds and five assists. And Cameron Thomas completely exploded, scoring 40 points and becoming the biggest contributor to the Nets' victory. In addition, the Nets had four other players score in double figures, and together they formed a solid cornerstone of this victory.
For the 76ers, they are a little lacking without Embiid. Although Maxey tried his best, his performance of only 8 of 23 shots was still a little regrettable. Oubre's 0-of-5 three-pointers were also a minor episode in the game.
This game wasn't just an ordinary win, for the Nets, it was a team win; For Ben Simmons, it's a home and proof of emotion. And for those of us who love basketball, it's a visual and emotional feast.
After the game, I think everyone has their own thoughts and feelings in their hearts. Maybe you're impressed by a player's performance, or maybe you're thinking about a turning point in the game.
