There’s no question that this was a good win for the Philadelphia 76ers, and they will have a chance to close the game out at home in Game 6. Going back to Boston for a Game 7 would be far from optimal for the team. Hopefully, we see the team remain focused and finish the job in Philadelphia.
As for the Boston Celtics, they will need to play with desperation to stay alive and force a Game 7. It is unfortunate that the team lost a crucial matchup at home, but perhaps we’ll see them do better in Game 6.
At the end of the day, this is a series between two evenly-matched teams, and it would be no surprise to see either win. We have seen some good basketball, and it’ll be interesting to see who comes out on top.
