Who saw this one coming? The Game 5 collapse for the 76ers made the collapse of the Milwaukee Bucks in their series with the Nets much more easy to accept. The main culprit of the Sixers’ struggles has to be Ben Simmons. The 76ers point guard’s shooting has arrived to a point where he is no longer looking to even drive to the hoop (the one thing he is good at) because his free throw shooting is so bad. In Game 5, Simmons shot 4-14 from the free throw line. It’s tough to win when you cannot trust your point guard to handle the ball.
For the Hawks, the momentum and, more importantly, the belief is on their side. This team is one game away from knocking out the number one seed in the Eastern Conference. With Game 6 taking place in Atlanta, the Hawks have every reason to think they can overcome anything the 76ers can throw their way. Trae Young is playing some of the best basketball of his career, proving his game has truly taken the next step.
