This is a 5* play on the New York Knicks.
The Sixers just barely got past the Miami Heat in the Play-in, and that was with Jimmy Butler limited by a serious knee injury. Joel Embiid scored just 23 points, and his playoff struggles are fresh in the mind of Sixers fans. The 2023 MVP averaged 34.7 points per game this season, but he scored just 23.7 points per game in last year's playoffs, and 23.6 points per game in the 2022 post-season. Philly lost 3-of-4 in the season series, and scored just 86.5 points per game during that span. The Knicks ranked #1 in the Eastern Conference in opponent's scoring average, allowing 108.2 points per game. New York is 20-3 this season when OG Anunoby is in the lineup. This looks like a tough matchup for Philly.
