Shooting ability gave the Heat a solid 7-0 start. Relying on the fiery shooting touch to get a good start for the next 46 minutes, the Heat generals led by Butler and Struth used the zone defense to firmly block Embiid and Harden in the three-second zone. In addition, the airtight iron barrel formation directly caused the 76ers to misfire for 1.5 minutes and then just broke the deadlock with a three-pointer by Green. After more than 4 minutes of stalemate, the Heat still gradually gained the upper hand with their highly targeted defense.

It's hard to move within; taking this opportunity, the Heat immediately relied on Struth's outstanding shooting ability to catch up and catch up.


The ups and downs of the game in the first half made the 76ers inevitably exhausted, so that they showed signs of collapse with lightning speed after changing sides again: throughout the third quarter, the Philadelphia 76ers not only attacked. There were repeated setbacks in the end, and the rear position was declared to fall in the counterattacks of the Heat again and again; it only took 7 minutes, the Heat then led by Butler to beat the home team 17-4, and the difference between the two sides even once up to 11 points. With more than 4 minutes left in the third quarter, the Philadelphia generals who had just woken up from their dreams were sporadically scored by Milton, Harris and Embiid, but the gap between them and the Miami people ended in the third quarter. Still fixed at 11 points.


The huge point difference directly caused the last quarter to have no suspense at all, and the mistakes that appeared on Maxy and Harden in succession made the result of the game an established fact-even though Harris and Maxy also stood up during the period. Scored for the team, but their offense was a drop in the bucket against the established Heat. After trying his best to reduce the score gap to 14 points, Rivers, who had no hope of reversing himself, chose to disarm and admit defeat, and watched the Heat take the lead in advancing to the Eastern Conference finals with a total score of 4-2.
