The Celtics have struggled badly in the last two games, with Philadelphia forcing a Game 7 from 3-1 down. Can the 76ers complete the comeback?<\/p>\n
No one saw this going the distance, but momentum is firmly with Philadelphia.<\/p>\n
Tatum looks banged up, Embiid has returned with huge impact, and Boston\u2019s offense has stalled at the worst time.<\/p>\n
Will Joe Mazzulla find answers, or does the 76ers\u2019 surge continue with a shock series win?<\/p>\n
Maxey is playing massive minutes and that won\u2019t change in a Game 7.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s averaging 26.3 points this series and has cleared this line in four of six games, including 30 in Game 6.<\/p>\n
With potential for near 40+ minutes again, this line looks very gettable.<\/p>\n
Expect Boston to go smaller, which should push Tatum into more time at centre.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s averaging 10.7 rebounds this series and has hit 10+ in four of six games, including 16 and 11 in the last two.<\/p>\n
If he logs heavy minutes again, double-digit boards should follow.<\/p>\n
Oubre\u2019s role has been critical with his two-way impact.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s averaging 6.2 rebounds this series and has cleared 4+ in all six games.<\/p>\n
With another heavy minutes load expected, this remains a strong play.<\/p>\n
