The Philadelphia 76ers were dead in the water, falling 0-2 to the Miami Heat, but the return of Joel Embiid completely turned the tides, and now we have ourselves a playoff series.

The NBA community knows that Joel Embiid is the rightful MVP, and your eyes would tell you that. Nikola Jokic won his second consecutive MVP award and he played well enough to be in the conversation, but to pretend his dominance overshadowed Joel Embiid's is absolutely ludicrous. Find out why Joel Embiid got robbed.

Ben Simmons continues to make headlines while Joel Embiid continues to take control of his leadership position with the Philadelphia 76ers. Joel Embiid suffered a torn ligament in his thumb and plans on playing through the injury, but Ben Simmons perpetually is letting his teammates down when they need him most.

Philadelphia 76ers superstar, Joel Embiid, injured his right thumb during the Sixers' game 3 matchup with the Toronto Raptors. The injury happened prior to his heroic game winning three pointer, and it did not seem to limit his game or intensity. That could have simply been adrenaline, but Embiid has made it very clear that there is "No chance" he misses a potential chance to sweep the Raptors on their home court. More information regarding the injury will be released upon an MRI when the Sixers return to Philly.

Tyrese Maxey and Tobias Harris have made their presence known and felt on both ends of the basketball court, and the Toronto Raptors have no answer.

In a tough environment, the Philadelphia 76ers managed to overcome early mistakes, to take a commanding 3-0 lead over the Toronto Raptors, in the first round of the NBA playoffs. Joel Embiid was sensational sealing the game with a game winning shot in overtime, while also logging in 33 points and 13 rebounds.

The Philadelphia 76ers continue to roll past the Toronto Raptors, taking a 2-0 in the first round series. Joel Embiid was in peak form putting up 31 points and 11 rebounds, while his supporting cast continued to make timely buckets. Tyrese Maxey and Tobias Harris continue to take advantage of their matchups both dropping over 20 points. The Sixers will travel to Toronto in an attempt to take a commanding 3-0 lead.

Tyrese Maxey and Tobias Harris were the men of the night in game 1, and their play opened up a slew of issues for Nick Nurse and his Toronto Raptors. They still have to deal with Joel Embiid and James Harden, but how will they regularly account for Maxey (who's a bucket) and Harris who can give them 20 points a night when motivated? Game 2 will show if Toronto has enough answers.
