Scored 69 points! The new Geminis are on full fire! With 3 consecutive wins and ranking first in the Eastern Conference, George is embarrassed

Basketball

On October 28, the NBA regular season continues, with the 76ers playing against the Magic at home. Both Embiid and George were absent from this game. The two teams were in good offensive condition and fell into a tug-of-war. However, the 76ers maintained a hot touch and gradually widened the point difference. They took a 12-point lead at halftime. In the second half, the Magic launched a counterattack, but failed to withstand it in the final quarter. The 76ers found their touch and defended the victory. In the end, the 76ers defeated the Magic 136-124 and won three consecutive games.

Without Embiid and George, everyone thought that the 76ers' strength would decline. After all, they are the core roles of the team. Unexpectedly, the 76ers' new backcourt seized the opportunity and showed strong firepower, especially the newly drafted rookie Edgecombe, which made the team smile. There was really no wrong choice, and the partnership with Maxi was excellent. This time, the two of them left the Magic with no choice but to watch them continue to score points, scoring 69 points in the game.

Maxi continued his hot momentum, playing 41 minutes, making 15 of 32 shots, 4 of 11 three-pointers, 9 of 10 free throws, 43 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists, with a plus-minus value of +14. Compared with last season, Maxey is no longer alone, but his helper is rookie Edgcomb. The latter played 39 minutes, made 10 of 17, scored 26 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists, with a plus-minus value of +13. He was also very confident on the court and his adaptability was really good. Now the 76ers have won three consecutive games and have directly rushed to the first place in the Eastern Conference.

Seeing Edgecombe's strong performance, George, who was sitting on the bench, felt embarrassed. After his comeback, it seemed that his starting position would be gone. George has not played in a game this season. He underwent surgery this summer and revealed that he chose to join the 76ers because they would not force me to play. I believe that the 76ers, seeing how popular Edgecombe is, may be considering how to send him away. After all, he occupies a maximum salary contract.

The Magic's offensive momentum is also good this time, and 6 people in the team scored in double figures. Unfortunately, the three-pointer touch is still poor, and they only made 8 of 25 shots. Banqueiro scored 32 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists, Wagner Jr. had 22 points, and Bain had 24 points. Unfortunately, their defense was not good and they did not continue the strength of last season and directly lost as many as 136 points. It is still a bit difficult to win.
