Locked On 76ers - Daily Podcast On The Philadelphia Sixers Locked On Podcast Network

“Simply put, it’s one of the Greatest Sixers Wins I’ve ever seen!”
-Marc Farzetta, LOCKED ON 76ers POSTCAST HOST

TYRESE MAXEY has the game of his life as the Philadelphia 76ers beat the New York Knicks 112-106 in overtime to force a Game 6!

Maxey scored a game-high 46 points including the game-tying three with 8 seconds left in the 4th quarter to force overtime.

Segment 1: THREE BIG THINGS: 1) This game was OVER … then TYRESE MAXEY HAPPENED!!! 46 points from the Sixers’ guard who dropped 17 points in the 4th quarter including the game tying three to force overtime. 2) Joel Embiid is COOKED, but somehow, someway recorded a TRIPLE DOUBLE with 19 points, 16 rebounds and 10 assists and 5 blocks. Yes, he did have 9 turnovers as well but they don’t win without him tonight. 3) Tobias Harris netted 19 as well and was clutch in the start and close of the game.

Segment 2: Breaking down the 4th quarter and overtime. How the Sixers looked to be making tee times until the end of the quarter surge from Maxey.

Segment 3: What’s next? Every Sixer needs to understand that MVP Joel Embiid is now One-Leg Joel Embiid and they need to do more to win. Embiid will be more of a facilitator from here on out.

The Philadelphia 76ers fall to the New York Knicks 97-92 as Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey combined for just six 4th quarter points. The loss drops the Sixers in a 3-1 hole as the series shifts back to New York for Game 5 Tuesday Night.
Segment 1: Embiid and Maxey can't vanish in the 4th quarter of a playoff game especially AT HOME! Maxey and Cam Payne each had 5 pts in the 4th. That should NEVER BE THE CASE!!!!

Segment 2: Embiid isn't going to get healthier as this series goes on.

Segment 3: Sixers don't look like they have anything left in the tank to win a Game 5, let alone a 6th or 7th game.
