Heat vs. Sixers 2018 live results: Score updates and highlights from Game 5
This could be it for Miami.
The Miami Heat and Philadelphia 76ers are giving one of the beefiest first rounds of the NBA playoffs ever, with every combination of players imaginable fighting throughout the series. Whether it was Dwyane Wade pulling Justin Anderson by the arm, James Johnson getting in Ben Simmons’ face, or Joel Embiid dragging Justise Winslow on the ground, this series has been downright spicy.
With Philadelphia up, 3-1, expect Game 5 to be chippier than ever with the Heat having everything to lose.
Miami has seen some vintage Wade in this series, with the 36-year-old scoring 25 points on 22 shots in Game 4. They’ll need that and more to stop Simmons and Embiid, who’ve been an unstoppable force so far. Embiid may have been sloppy on the offensive end, but even still, he was the single most impactful defensive player. Simmons has been unmatched driving to the rim, too.
The Heat need to find answers to keep this series alive.
