New: many expected last night’s Game 5 to be the final game Tobias Harris played as a Sixer. Instead, their season lives on — and it wouldn’t have without timely bucket after timely bucket from the much-maligned Harris, who finally rose to the occasion.

New: Joel Embiid’s offense in Game 5 was putrid. But when Tyrese Maxey gave him a lifeline, Embiid put took over the game in overtime with unbelievable defense. Embiid’s teammates bask in the greatness of their trusted rim protector, flaws and all:

New: Tyrese Maxey did something special last night, creating a moment that may never be topped. Through it all, the 23 year-old, wise & considerate beyond his years, showered praise on others while everybody else focused on him.

Maxey's signature moment:

Sixers vs Knicks Game 6 injury report lists Joel Embiid as questionable and Robert Covington as out.

Mitchell Robinson is questionable and Julius Randle and Bojan Bogdanovic are out

The Sixers did the most un-Sixers thing possible. Wrote about what’s next for a team that, at least for a night, threw their typical playoff script to the wind: phillyvoice.com/sixers-knicks-…

Programming note: I’ll be on SPORTSRADIO 94WIP at 11PM Eastern tonight to talk all things Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid and Sixers-Knicks with Jody McDonald. Tune in!

Josh Harris, David Blitzer, David Adelman and I just bought more than 2,000 tix for Sixers Game 6 - we absolutely CANNOT let Knicks fans take over our arena again!!! Giving them to first responders, health care professionals and other local Philadelphia-based organizations once…

The Sixers took a ton of heat for what happened in the arena in Games 3 and 4 -- very rightfully so -- and it isn't a surprise that they appear to now be pulling out all of the stops to avoid that in their final home game vs. the Knicks

Per the Sixers:

'Bricken for Chicken' will run during the entirety of every Sixers home game for the remainder of the 2024 NBA Playoffs -- not just the second halves.

Figured something like this was coming from Sixers ownership. The environment in Games 3 and 4 was a brutal look for them. We’ll see if their continued efforts since the end of Game 5 end up having as much of an impact as they are hoping

One of the beautiful things about playoff sports is that in close games like these, you can point to so many moments and say “the outcome of the game is different if this player doesn’t make this play/judgement.” This is one of many from last night:

New: Tyrese Maxey did something special last night, creating a moment that may never be topped. Through it all, the 23 year-old, wise & considerate beyond his years, showered praise on others while everybody else focused on him.
