"32 points (29 percentage), 35 points (29 percentage), 46 points (43 percentage), 37 points (31 percentage), this is Young's scoring contribution in the first four games," because Young is doubtful (

Because Embiid, Landry, and Marshall are out for the season and Philadelphia does not need to put anyone on the inactive list), the pre-game analysis of the G5 game naturally fell on Young.

"In short, everyone in Philadelphia now needs to take 32 of Young's possessions and score 30 points with a true shooting percentage of 627."

"Unless there is Paul George or Leonard on this team, with the current composition of Philadelphia, they will not be able to handle the output of the All-NBA second team, or even the output of a quasi-All-Star.

Lose."

"Especially since the Cleveland Cavaliers are still facing a 13-point deficit, it's impossible for James and Irving to miss such a great opportunity." Mark Jackson was not generally pessimistic about the situation in Philadelphia, but very pessimistic.

"Mark, you're right. It's time for Philadelphia to reshuffle its roster in the summer. Apart from Embiid, who hasn't played in two years, Philadelphia only has Covington, a high-quality starter, and McConnell, an ordinary rotation player, in the right positions."

Jeff Van Gundy talks about the 76ers' construction issues.

"Jeff, it's unnecessary, it's unnecessary. We don't need to worry about Philadelphia's future. After all, they still have a 156 chance of winning the No. 1 pick this year.

In the summer, they swallowed the garbage contracts of Landry, Stauskas, and Jason Thompson (in exchange for Gerald Wallace), giving the 76ers a huge harvest; they were enjoying the Eastern Conference semifinals while playing

The draft income brought by the Kings finishing third from the bottom in the regular season (Note: Because the record is third from the bottom, the Kings’ draft picks can only be 1, 2, 3, and 6, so the 2016 first-round pick given to the Bulls by the Kings (110

) protection takes effect, and at the same time, the first-round exchange rights obtained by the 76ers in the transaction take effect, and the 76ers' own first-rounders will be exchanged with the first-rounders left by the Kings)."

"The top two are both forwards, and neither of the following are five-star potential stocks. If I really want to draw the top three picks, I have to find a home for this pick." A middle-aged man in Philadelphia was watching the live broadcast.

People started to complain without any hesitation.

"It's cold." After complaining, the middle-aged man wanted to drink some water. When he picked up the cup, he found that the cup of brewed tea in front of him was already cold.

…………

Just as the ESPN trio predicted, the Philadelphia 76ers' offensive development has basically reached the end of its rope.

Except for "stealing" a few three-pointers with Spain's pick-and-roll at the end of the first quarter, the rest was just Moore running through the screens to seize the space of less than a second. He and McConnell made a mid-range shot in the pick-and-roll with the ball.

.

It has to be said that in Young's absence, the referees loosened their grip on the Philadelphia 76ers, and at the same time gave the 76ers room to fully utilize the full-court double-attack.

It fully relaxed the role players and also gave the Cavaliers role players who had been frustrated for four games a lot of three-point opportunities.

4869

With the role players shooting 12 of 27 three-pointers, the Cleveland Cavaliers gained a 21-point advantage.

At the same time, the flight distance to Philadelphia has been shortened to 12 minutes.

…………

What to do? There is nothing we can do!

How to solve it? There is no way to solve it!

Looking at Covington and Moore sitting on the bench panting;

Brett Brown has nothing to do, after all, his team relies on Young's performance in every aspect to win against the Cavaliers.

On the offensive end, we must not only rely on Young to offset James' output, but also eat up some of Irving's output.

What's more important is that this is not enough. With only one and a half ball-handlers in the team, the other eight people need to be fed by Young's own influence.

Not only the offense, but the defense also points to Young to choke, although others can pinch the passing lane.

But LeBron James still needs to be pinched by Young himself

After 4 games, the field goal percentage was 2665,399. With this kind of defensive efficiency, except for Young's 666, the other 76ers generals had nothing to contribute.

As for Irving, except for being pinched by Young when his hand was bursting,

At other times, the 76ers couldn't control the backup punisher in the Cavaliers' system.

"Do your best and leave no regrets." Brett Brown, who had no change of tactics, could only give him "chicken soup". At the same time, Hollis Thompson was replaced, hoping that the other party could bring him a winning text message.

surprise?

Sorry, I won't give it to you.

Although the 76ers recovered some points early in the fourth quarter,

but

Irving, who returned to the game after only three minutes of rest,

He immediately began his offensive museum performance without mercy.

——Faced with the pick-and-roll being dismantled, he completed a strong shot against Jerami Grant's defense.

——Go around the screen, get rid of Courtney Lee's entanglement, and complete the jump ball around the screen

——During a high-speed counterattack, look for Love's cover and attack the frame in one go.

——Received a pass from LeBron James, chased at 45 degrees and shot a three-pointer

——Facing Jerami Grant in a pick-and-roll, a light switch layup not only got the ball but also caused a foul on Jerami Grant.

——Facing Covington's one-on-one defense, he completed a step-back three-pointer at the buzzer.

After Irving performed these dazzling offensive operations, the 76ers did not even have a second hand;

In addition to accepting, we can only accept the consequences of losing.

The 76ers lost in Game 5, bringing the score from 13 to 23

"Is Young's injury serious?" Because Young was absent, Brett Brown, who had no players to lead, could only go on the field to answer reporters' questions.

"The doctor's advice is to rest for two more days, so we accepted it." The ambiguous answer is the most suitable method at this time. After all, the 76ers need to improve.

"Will Young play in Game 6?" This was obviously a dumb reporter.

"It depends on the situation, so I don't know it today. You can ask me tomorrow, and I might know it at that time." Regarding Young's situation, Brett Brown couldn't let anyone figure it out.

"Do you have any thoughts on this defeat?"
